L'Ardoise is a small French bistro on the quiet Rue du Mont Thabor in Paris, near the Louvre Museum and the Orangerie Museum. Its set courses run from appetizer to main to dessert, with choices such as beef bourguignon, veal dishes, scallops, and chocolate mousse. Seating is limited, so reservations are recommended, and the basement level has been used for group meals of 12. Tables are placed very close together, so guests move the table themselves when sitting down.
