Love and the French go hand in hand, and at Café Sauvage in Boston’s Back Bay, that marriage is on full display — from the food and the ambiance to the husband and wife who run the restaurant. “We wanted to have a French restaurant that looked like us,” owner Anais Lambert said. Owners Anais and Antoine Lambert bring a twist to the French classics — from the duck confit eggs benedict to the beef Bourguignon sandwich. “We’re both French. Both from Paris. I have my African heritage. We mix things together like our family,” Anais Lambert said. It’s a winning combination for Bostonians and visitors from around the world. “I come here, actually, four days out of seven,” patron Caroline Reeves said. “I would come five days out of seven, but they’re not open on Mondays.” “There’s no better feeling (than) people coming back telling you it’s amazing,” Antoine Lambert said. “For us, it’s a recognition of our work and also about the love we share together,” Anais Lambert said.
