Description:
The first American restaurant in Les Halles is aging well. Joe Allen long ago invaded the place with his hamburger. Though the New York restaurateur admits "it's a silly idea," it works, and this place serves Paris's best burger. While listening to the jukebox, you can order black-bean soup, chili, sirloin steak, ribs, or apple pie. Joe Allen is getting more sophisticated, catering to modern tastes with dishes such as grilled salmon with coconut rice and sun-dried tomatoes. His saloon is the only place in Paris serving New York cheesecake and real pecan pie. A very popular brunch is served Saturday and Sunday from noon to 4pm, costing 18€ ($26). Without a dinner reservation, expect a 30-minute wait at the New York Bar.

The burger was nothing great, and they are not generous in the bluecheese, like 1.50euros for a spoon of bluecheese. For 30euros each, breakfast in america or the frog is much much...
