La Poubelle is such a vibe. As soon as we walk in, it feels like we’ve stepped into a little corner of France. There are these gorgeous red lamps on every table, a b/w French movie playing in the background, and Edith Piaf’s voice floating through the speakers - seriously, it’s like time-traveling to Paris.
I tried their matcha drink (the one with the flower and mint on top) and it was sooo pretty - and actually really good. Light, a little earthy, and not too sweet....
Have been going here since the 90’s - food is consistently great, service is terrible. Had to ask several times for silverware and food had already arrived! The system of ordering via app, paying prior to food’s arrival is backward given you must tip before being served. It’s obvious restaurant is tying to save money by hiring less staff, but unhappy customers don’t make for a pleasant dining experience
First time trying this restaurant and it was wonderful. The staff was great, food was delicious, reasonably priced, and he whole place was just a great experience. Would definitely recommend. Definitely would come back.
