L'Accoudoir

An American friend and I came here for dinner on a Thursday evening around 8:30 PM. Since dinner was well underway, the restaurant was reasonably busy, but we were seated immediately at a hightop table near the front. I speak French but my friend doesn't really; the server was able to speak English fairly well, which was handy.

My friend and I both got the faux filet, which came with some greens and fries. There was also a choice of sauces for the meat; we both went with the pepper sauce, which the server recommended. I found the portion to be pretty decent and filling, especially since the main plates came with complimentary bread. I feel like the French tend to like their meat more well-done than me, but I still found it to be very tasty, especially with the sauce.

My friend and I each also got dessert; I got the tiramisu while she got the tarte façon tatin, which was a small apple tart. I really loved my tiramisu; it was very mousse-textured and had a chestnut cream in the base, which was delicious. My friend also let me have a bite of her apple tart; it was hot and scrumptious, and definitely a great choice in the winter. For me, the desserts were the highlight of the meal.

The restaurant has a pretty cozy ambiance, dark but with cute lighting fixtures. The service was friendly and efficient. Keep in mind the bathrooms are only accessible by stairs. I was able to pay with my American Mastercard without any issues, and I found the prices to be reasonable. A good dinner option if you're in Suresnes!
