Having a great friend who (for some reason) enjoys Payssane and I have eaten there numerous times, and find it pretentious, dated, and I have not had a meal there that I could describe any better than 'average', and it's expensive. It's as about as authentic of French cuisine as a pot noodle and the 'owner' is horribly irritating and ingratiating. I despair when it's suggested and try and suggest somewhere else.
I am truly fascinated why people rave about it...........?
