  Classic delicious French food with good service. Reasonably priced menu and good wines. I would recommend this bistro, it is a good find. Good vegetarian options as well.

  A cute French bistro, with some superb French cuisine to offer. The French onion soup was quite delicious. The wine to complement the food was amazing. The mains were also fabulous. Service was prompt and non intrusive. Ambiance was of a cozy smallish bistro in some village in France!! Quite romantic and soft.

  Sometimes eating in a restaurant isn’t about trendy food, fine dining and small plates, but about comfort food that makes you happy.Recently I went to a small restaurant in Angel: le Sacr Coeur where one of my French friends invited me. It was a good occasion to catch up a lot of years in an familiar and simple atmosphere. To start the meal we shared a platter of mix marinated olives, cheese with mustard and bread & olive oil, as our waitress told us the main courses were quite big.The cheese was good, served at room temperature, two disappointing points about this platter : the quality of the bread wasn’t good, such a shame for a French restaurant and where was the saucisson?My friend ordered an Entrecte grille with peppercorn sauce. I was impressed by the size of her entrecte and it was served with nicely cooked thin fries. The entrecte was perfectly cooked, tender and juicy. This entrecte was better and cheaper than the one I tried at Chabrot bistrot des Halles near Smithfield market.As a main course I had the classic coq au vin. It was such a pleasure to have a classic dish so well executed, the carrots and mushrooms were slowly cooked in the wine sauce. Carrots melted like butter in the mouth. I remembered when I went to the trendy Brasserie Zedel near Piccadilly the mushrooms and carrots were cooked separately from the sauce, it didn’t taste that great as they were too crunchy.The coq au vin arrived first on the table, I didn’t notice it came with a side: sauted potatoes. I think this dish would have been enough to be shared by two people.Le Sacr Coeur is not the ‘coolest place to be’ for a foodie in London, but to me this place was far better than some trendy places. It was very good value – one (massive) main course around 12, it came to 20 per head with wine and the platter we shared.Sometimes the most modest looking places can surprise you.Le Sacr Coeur was a simple French restaurant with a great friendly atmosphere and nice French waiters (I know they are usually famous to be rude – according to Chris Pople).I will definitely come back to Le Sacr coeur when I am nostalgic or when I want to eat proper French comfort food without loosing one arm when the bills arrive on the table.8/10 jeannemarieb.com
