Chez André

At rue Clément-Marot Cuisines: French

About

Chez André is one of the neighborhood's favorite bistros with an ambience that evokes France in the 1950s and a clientele that includes everyday folk, as well as some of the most prosperous residents of this extremely upscale neighborhood. Outside, a discreet red awning stretches over an array of shellfish on ice; inside, an Art Nouveau decor includes etched glass and masses of flowers. This has been a landmark on rue Marbeuf since 1937. It remains as it was when it was founded (thanks to an agreement made with the original owners). The old-style cuisine on the menu includes pâté of thrush; frogs' legs; grilled veal kidneys; roast rack of lamb; fresh shellfish; and, on Fridays, bouillabaisse. Several reasonably priced wines are offered as well.
