Goûtons Voir (CLOSED)

An offshoot of its considerably larger Dbayeh cousin, the Achrafieh branch of Goûtons Voir replicates the other venue's yuppie-baiting marriage of quality cuisine, pared-down decor and quirky hipster touches (exhibit A: the beret-sporting baguette mascot). If the aesthetic allows the kitchen to get away with smaller portions than the prices would suggest, then at least your bill will be justified by the quality of the Franco-centric dishes (think steak, salads, risottos). As a bonus, the attentive staff know their wines. Cosier and more intimate than the Dbayeh branch, this is one of our favourite spots in the city for a light meal.
