Taking advantage of an OfertaSimple, we decided to make our first visit to this restaurant on a Sunday after church service. Paul is easy to find - on the ground floor across from Saquella by the Las Terrazas side of the mall. We arrived at about 12:15pm, the restaurant was about 60% full which enabled us to be greeted and seated very quickly.
One immediate call out at this point are the seating and tables - very small tables, which meant for 3 persons we needed to bring two together and the seats are not the most comfortable (the design narrows at your butt, which makes for a bit of a squeeze unless you have a small frame). I'm 6' 5" @ 250lbs - not a small person by any stretch.
That aside, service was prompt and pleasant. After placing our order, it appeared that we were not going to get the complementary bread basket unless we asked for it, even though all other diners we observed coming after us received theirs in short order. Once we asked about it, they responded quickly.
As it relates to the food - I ordered the standard breakfast of scrambled eggs, bacon & toast which also included a tomato wedge, lettuce and potato hash brown. I enjoyed it as all the ingredients were clearly fresh and well prepared. My wife ordered the salmon wrap, which comes with a mesculin salad. She thought it was good, not great. Our son had his usual chicken fingers and fries - bigger portion than expected which he ate a little more than half of.
Overall, the food is good, the ambiance is more of an outdoor Parisian cafe vs. a restaurant. The uncomfortable seating setup did not help matters as my wife did not enjoy the experience as much - she was dying to leave because of that. With a great location and friendly staff, Paul definitely has potential but it is not necessarily the best for everyone. Personally, I had a good overall experience, however, my wife will not be returning.
