The 50 best cheap eats in Paris

Awesome place, followed lots of good reviews and ended up here at 9pm on a Monday, place was packed with just a few empty tables and nice steady stream of people coming and leaving, excellent wine ! Shawarma 👍, falafel is nice and moist ❤️, eggplant stayed hot while we devoured our sandwiches even though we came in mildly full from our 5pm dinner, food was so good that we ended up getting another dish just to try the chicken livers knowing we are flying out the next day and would get another chance for a while. Excellent atmosphere full of active adults, laughter and chatter. Must go !

Waited in line for dine in as we spent all day shopping and wanted to sit down and relax. The lineup was long, but thankfully organized they give you a slip of paper & write your arrival time and moved quickly. The mushroom hummus is incredible as a share plate or starter with pita, I would order that every time. And for the falafel, wow perfect. I have no other words except perfection for the falafel . Must come back and try the Shakshuka next trip.

One of the best falafel sandwiches I've ever had. And the hummus was very special as well. Great options for vegans! Spare some time to queue up though.

This restaurant should have good taste because there was always a queue in front of the restaurant , even though it was neither lunch nor dinner time. Personally this was the first time that I ate farallel. I simply did not like it. The atmosphere is like the one of a first food restaurant. The staff were nice. All the food looked very healthy. I did not eat all the dishes up so I took them away. The portions of plats are quite big for me. All the guests around me seemed to eat pita pains or sandwiches.

Love their falafel to the max, saw very high rating on this restaurant and tried our luck since we were around the area for lunch. We were lucky - queue was long but took us less than 10mins to get table. Overall was good, we couldn’t finish the pita sandwich and pack. It taste good even we ate in the evening. Overall service was fast too, definitely worth the wait.

Highly recommend this place if you are looking for fresh flavorful falafel! It’s a small cute place which was extremely crowded. The decor was decent and service was quick. Their mint lemonade and fresh juices were amazing. The portion are large and can be shared. Food was delicious and the falafel wrap was a balanced meal with lots of vegetables in it.

I’m not expert enough to comment on falafels, which tasted great to me. However, the rest of the falafel sandwich and lamb shawarma were terrific. You need to put the red sauce on yours! Also, heads up that you can skip the line by dining in, but the prices are 3-4€ higher than the board outside

My husband and I decided to visit after seeing all the glowing reviews and ratings. We arrived around 7 pm and only waited a few minutes in line, but by the time we left around 8 pm, the queue outside was huge. Definitely go early if you plan to visit. I understand it’s a historic spot, but I doubt it was ever this packed back in the day. It felt like a buzzing beehive, great if you enjoy that kind of energy, not so much if you prefer a calmer atmosphere. The prices are modest, but the quality matches that. The experience reminded me of a cafeteria both in the noise level and in how the food was presented. The service was super fast, which made th experience more pleasant. If you come as a couple, don't expect a table for 2, you'll be sat next to someone else at a table of 4 or more. Overall, I’m glad we tried it once for the experience, but it’s not somewhere I’d return to. Once is enough. Total bill: 1 starter, 2 mains, 2 drinks, 1 dessert: €37.

I visited Bouillon Chartier around 19 on a Sunday, so naturally we waited in the line for over 50 minutes. We were with two, so we were sitted in a table of four with another couple, which can be weird if you are not aware of it but very understandable considering how busy the place is. The atmosphere was very pretty, however the food was not so great, if it weren’t for the atmosphere or the affordable prices I wouldn’t say it’s worth the wait at all but if you have time and want a different experience and see the decor it’s very nice. The menu changed daily, and I really liked the desserts, especially the chocolate mousse. We paid around 45 euros for two main dishes with one starter, two desserts and drinks.

The queue is quite complicated, so make sure to ask where the end of the line is, as there are three separate lines. We found a staff member who directed us to the correct one. Staff move people from the front of one line to the end of the next. We ended up queuing for an hour before a seat was offered to our party of three. We shared a table with another party of three who had been in line just ahead of us. The food here is mid, but what it lacks in flavor, it makes up for in price, service, and ambience. The atmosphere is lively, the decor traditional, and the waiters carrying an entire table’s entrees on one arm was nothing short of spectacular. One of the major perks of Bouillon Chartier is the price—£1 for a goopy green soup (which didn’t have much flavor), and entrees ranging from £10 to £13. This is one of those restaurants I’m glad to have tried once, but the food didn’t leave me wanting to come back. Also, I think new cutlery is very much needed. I had a difficult time cutting through my steak with the provided knife, which was so dull it couldn’t even pass as a butter knife.

After a lot of searching on the internet for where to eat in Paris, I chose "bouillon", the best option for tasting traditional French cuisine. Next step: with one. Because there are some for a reasonable and acceptable price, and there are some that are more expensive and much more expensive. So which one is it? Bouillon Chartier, located not to far from our hotel (weather was horrible, rain all the day long) and from comments I understood that prices more than reasonable. So, here we are. As expected there was a queue at the restaurant (and it doesn't matter what time of the day), but fast, our maximum was 10 minutes, we visited this restaurant for lunch and early dinner. Service also fast, friendly (surprise, with their occupancy. Food, what i can say, maybe not a perfect, but good, tasty, fresh, traditional. If you never tasted before French cuisine this is the place for you, you'll enjoy. Atmosphere, loud, of course, but again huge place with a lot of clients everyday non-stop from 11-30 to midnight, you should expect this. Do I recommended, absolutely yes, and be ready for all points mentioned above.

Bouillon Chartier is truly a piece of Parisian history — a heritage restaurant that’s been serving traditional French cuisine since 1896, and it absolutely lives up to its reputation! The moment you arrive, you’ll notice a lively crowd waiting outside — a sign of just how popular this place is. I had to wait a few minutes to get a table for dinner, but once inside, the atmosphere made it worth it. The restaurant is bustling with energy — filled with chatter, clinking glasses, and the unmistakable aroma of French cheese that instantly sets the mood. I went with my colleagues to try escargots for the very first time, and it was such an experience! Apart from the escargots, we ordered steamed prawns with mayonnaise, steak with mashed potatoes, and duck with boiled potatoes — all cooked beautifully and full of authentic flavors. I was also fascinated to see the waiter taking our order right on the paper spread across the table — he actually wrote down the names of the dishes we ordered there itself and later calculated the total bill on the same paper. It’s such a simple yet transparent system, and it feels nice to see the bill being made right in front of you, knowing you’re charged correctly. The only downside is that the service can feel a bit rushed, likely because of the heavy crowd. Our waiter seemed slightly grumpy, maybe from a long day of serving endless guests. Still, it added to the authentic Parisian charm — this is a place that runs on tradition and energy. What really stood out was the atmosphere — during our meal, someone was celebrating their birthday, and the entire restaurant joined in singing “Joyeux Anniversaire.” It was such a heartwarming moment, seeing strangers come together in celebration. Bouillon Chartier is not just a restaurant — it’s an experience. A little chaotic, a little crowded, but full of history, flavor, and life. Definitely a must-visit if you want to taste true French cuisine in a truly Parisian way! 🇫🇷✨

It was my first time at Bouillon Chartier Montparnasse. We waited about 15 minutes for a table (for 2 people), which wasn’t bad. For larger groups, it might be more difficult to get seated right away as the queue can be quite long. They serve classic French dishes — delicious and very affordable. The staff provided great service throughout our meal. It can get a bit loud, but that’s part of the charm; the lively atmosphere and beautiful old-style setting make you feel like you’re stepping back in time. Be aware that you might be seated next to other diners, but overall, it’s an amazing experience.

Absolutely adored the restaurant’s decor in Art Nouveau style. Menu is affordable and offers some classic French dishes. Service-wise as it is a popular tourist & local spot it can be quite slow even you can see waiters are running around trying to do everything. They operate on a walk-in basis, so expect to wait, especially during peak hours

We visited Bouillon Pigalle in Paris, a restaurant I had heard a lot about and had been looking forward to trying. I would highly recommend reserving in advance, as the place gets very busy and lively, especially during peak hours. For my meal, I opted for the Boeuf Bourguignon with lard fumé and coquillettes. Honestly, the dish felt quite basic. While the flavors were classic, the beef was a bit dry, and it didn’t have the richness I was expecting from such a famous dish. I also ordered the escargots, which were delicious and definitely one of the highlights of the meal. My friend went with the cuisse de poulet with sauce poulette and fries. The chicken was well-cooked, but the fries were just average, nothing special. I went in with high expectations due to all the hype surrounding the restaurant, but while the food was decent, it didn’t quite give me the “wow” factor I was hoping for. That said, the service was impeccable—the staff was extremely friendly and attentive, which made the overall experience very pleasant despite the food being a bit underwhelming. Another positive point is that the restaurant is really not expensive, especially considering the location in Paris and the quality of the ingredients. For anyone looking to enjoy a traditional Parisian meal without spending a fortune, Bouillon Pigalle offers good value for money. The atmosphere is lively and very Parisian, which adds to the charm. Overall, it’s a nice spot for a casual yet classic Parisian meal, particularly if you manage your expectations regarding the food. The combination of friendly service, reasonable prices, and a bustling environment makes it worth a visit, even if it doesn’t quite live up to the hype on the culinary side.

The food was a hit and miss. Most we ordered were good such as the seafood vol au vent, escargot and eggs with maroilles cream but the steak frites was terrible. It was extremely hard and rubbery, pls do not order that. No wonder I saw so many people ordering the pork shank with fries and that looked good! Place was very cute though, and the staff were helpful and nice. All in all an interesting Parisian experience, but I think once is enough for me!

One of my favourite Parisian bistros… everything was balanced and just right. All usual traditional French dishes but all done very well. Presentation perfect. Loved the desserts. Must try

first of all, definitely another recommendation if you're looking for french traditional cuisine! price and food were exceptional! we had the French onion soup with Cantal cheese, Beef bourguignon with smoked bacon & pasta shells and Half a caramelised ham hock and French fries. If we weren't full we would have went for dessert as well! all three dishes were very delicious and price wise very cheap! the service was exceptional, friendly even did some joking! BIG THANKS to the FOH lady! we canceled our reservation through a call, as we couldn't make it on time. arriving there, there was a very long queue. fortunately the FOH (maybe she recognised us) made eye-contact with us through the window, and invited us in after 10mins of waiting.

What you pay is what you get. Mains are below 14 euros, drinks are below 7 euros and desserts are below 5 euros. Great place to drop by and try a couple of dishes, just to get an impression of it. Service is very reminiscent of a fast food chain, quick, speedy and impersonal, which I don’t mind. Food itself is okay, we got the beef bourguignons and the ravioli with leek fondue. The dishes served here are very no frills, and flavours aren’t served in great depth, but I can appreciate the place for what it does. The beef was actually quite soft, though the pasta was reminiscent of a Kraft’s Mac and cheese. The ravioli was pretty okay too. A side of ratatouille might’ve actually been the standout, it was tangy and flavourful, all around a good stew. For desserts, the creme brûlée was done really well for the price, though I wouldn’t recommend the apple tart. Rice pudding was decent great too. Overall, service was quick, but enquiries took forever to be resolved 😭, as evident by the lack of staff and the Long Queue outside. We queued for about twenty minutes to get in, so do account for that. The balcony seatings are pretty nice for the view!

Very popular spot in Pigalle and always a wait, however the queue moves pretty quickly… We’ve enjoy some nice steak frites at a quite affordable price and topped with some nice profiteroles, volcano & creme brulee. The place is definitely noisy but we weren’t expecting any different, so was happy overall.

The food was pretty good. My steak was a little tough but everything else was really good. It did take a while had to wait for a table but not long. Service was great Lois was fantastic 😊 would go back for sure

Very cute restaurant at the corner, super friendly staffs and great services! Food is just average, maybe we didn’t order right. However, my salmon tarter is very tasty and decent portion, my drink is good too. The burger and the starter are a bit boring, fries are not the greatest either. Overall positive experience! For the location, price is good.

Highly recommended. Cien por ciento recomendable. This is a traditional Parisian Bistrot with very reasonable prices and superb taste. Do not miss it in your Paris visit. Come early and get the table of your choice. It gets crowded and with a super nice ambience.

Fantastic service , good food , cheap drinks & prices , what more can you wish for. Definitely recommended. Expect to wait outside a little bit in a queue as many people want to go here. I had steak and it was really great, especially for that price. My girlfriend loved the onion soup, it was the best she had this week in France. should we come back to Paris then we will definitely have to come back here

【Quick Summary】The Duck Confit is exquisite! Enjoy traditional bistro cuisine in a lively, Parisian atmosphere, enhanced by the staff's warm and friendly service. 【Purpose of Visit】Perfect for those seeking authentic, delicious French food at a reasonable price, along with the pleasure of kind and engaging service. ✅ Experience (Food & Dishes) * ✅ Duck Confit (Confit de Canard): **The standout dish** of our meal was definitely the Duck Confit. The meat was so incredibly tender it **flaked apart with a fork**, highly fragrant, and truly exquisite. The accompanying French fries were crisp and delicious. The amazing flavor is unforgettable. * ✅ Other Dishes: The burrata cheese in the salad was rich and flavorful, and the terrine was concentrated with savory meat flavor. The onion soup was generously topped with cheese and was consistently delicious. The escargots were served in their shells, were mildly salted, and had a slightly soft texture. * ✅ Dessert: The Crème brûlée was a perfect final touch, with a brittle caramelized crust and a smooth, creamy interior. ✅ Environment (Atmosphere & Service) * ✅ Service: While it is a lively and bustling traditional Parisian bistro, what truly stood out was that **the staff were very kind and actively communicated with the patrons.** Their warm service allowed us to thoroughly enjoy our meal. ✅ Final Thoughts All the dishes were satisfying, but the quality of the Duck Confit is particularly noteworthy. The combination of excellent food and kind service made for a superb bistro experience.

We ordered starters and main courses too and we got the food really fast but we got everything all at once and tables were tiny so it was very uncomfortable to eat like that. the food looked very good but... The taste of the food was very bland. No seasoning on anything really. Luckily we got the bill very fast but I really do not feel like it was worth it spend the money there. The waiters did the bare minimum. We had an amazing day in Paris but this dinner took a little bit from the experience. I do not recommend this place.

We saw that this restaurant was packed with locals and tourists and there was a decent line outside so we decided to give it a try. Despite the long line, it went by fast and we were seated within 15 min. We tried the escargot, two salad entrees, rib steak frites and chicken. We loved the escargot and mashed potatoes that came with the chicken dish the most. The rib steak and chicken were both a bit chewy and tough to eat, but they were overall good given the amazing affordable price point. The manager was so friendly to everyone which made our experience here even better.

We read many reviews and expected a good experience based on the high ratings. But like other low ratings, we agree with them. It is a very touristy restaurant. The waiters were friendly but our food came out just 5 mins after we ordered. Meaning the food was sitting there precooked. I understand the need for this, as its a busy restaurant. But our food was almost cold! That is the bare minimum to expect when eating out... The food looked nice but is also very bland nothing special. The best part was the potato chips after adding salt. The duck was ok, a little dry, probably from sitting there so long. You can make a better tasting onion soup easily at home and make it hot! As you can see in the picture, the cheese hasn't melted. I will say it is cheap for Paris but is not worth it even so.

Came here for lunch with a group of friends. The place has a lively, casual vibe and is clearly popular—so popular, in fact, that getting a table can be a bit of a challenge. They don’t take reservations, which adds to the wait-time stress, and unfortunately, some guests don’t hesitate to skip the line and claim tables as soon as one opens up. Definitely a bit chaotic at peak hours, so patience (and maybe a little assertiveness) is key. Once seated, the service was efficient—orders were taken quickly and the food started arriving dish by dish, which worked fine for our group. The standout for me was the vegetarian selection: the roasted cauliflower, artichokes, and green beans were all incredibly flavorful and well-seasoned—simple ingredients but done right. The lamb kebab was also a hit, served tucked inside warm bread with a nice balance of spice and tenderness. I also tried one of their Israeli beers, which surprisingly reminded me of Anker, a beer from Indonesia—light, crisp, and nostalgic in a way I didn’t expect. Overall, a fun spot for casual dining with bold flavors. I'd definitely come back, especially for the veggie dishes.

We visited Miznon years ago and were impressed with the food. We have tried other joints in the Mare neighborhood but none are as good as Miznon. A cozy casual dining with great selection of delicious vegetable dishes. The green beans and cauliflower is my favorite. We also tried the fish and chips. It was full of flavor and delicious. Looking forward to my next visit.

My favorite restaurant in Paris, the food is delicious with great atmosphere and service. Had to make sure to go earlier after the first time there was a line that extends outside. Definitely looking forward to going here again on my next visit to Paris.

Got the lamb in a pita and also tried the beef bourguignon — the lamb was fantastic and tender, but the beef bourguignon was out of this world. It melts in your mouth and is absolutely unforgettable. The homemade lemonade is also excellent — refreshing and not too sweet, just the way it should be. They have an English menu, which is really thoughtful and helpful for visitors. Everyone here is incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend — strongly!

A wide variety of vegetable based fast food. The Golden Ratatouille and their stuffed cabbage were our choices, great fillers for a quick bite, the staff was friendly and the Maccabee fresh. Well worth a try if in the area

Have been going to this place for several years and they are consistently good! Small spot in le Marais, simple, homey, friendly, with a lot of personality Any grilled veggie is great, though this time we went for cauliflower and was a great choice - tender, crispy, tons of flavor For pita, there are a lot of good options, but chou-farci is amazing - mouth melting, rich, like a home made dish.

Superb Israeli food in Marais. Delicious yet inexpensive. Casual and fun. A wonderful break.

I have limited experience with crepes, but these buckwheat savory crepes were exceptionally delicious. They were light and the fillings were well-balanced. The menu was extensive, offering a wide variety of choices. I highly recommend the caramelized apple dessert crepe; it alone would be reason enough for a return visit. Our bill for six crepes, two teas, and two macchiatos was approximately 110€.

I took a 40-minute walk to this cafe from my hotel and it was worth it. It is in the Temple District, near the National Archives. Much to see along the way there. The place is rather small and seating cozily close. Service was warm. I had the Complete galette for dinner and it was delicious. It was downed with a Breizh Cola 👍🏻. Although I was close to full, I succumbed to the temptation of a sweet crepe to finish off my meal. I had the thick crepe with honey and vanilla butter. The thick crepe was soft and the vanilla butter tasted great. A meal with the walk effort 😍

Second time to visit because the first time (two years ago) was so exceptional! The best selection of crepes and galettes in Paris! We shared one savory and one sweet selection between the two of us. Service was excellent; location is great!

We had an amazing experience at Breizh Café! We ordered a variety of savory galettes and assorted sweet crêpes. Each one was absolutely delicious, with perfectly crisp textures and fresh, flavorful fillings. We also shared a jar of their apple cider, which paired beautifully with everything on the table. The quality, presentation, and authentic Breton flavors made this one of our most memorable meals in Paris. Portion is very big. The space has a warm, cozy atmosphere with friendly staff and a great vibe. Tip: Be sure to reserve in advance and arrive on time—this place fills up quickly, and it’s easy to see why. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to experience top-notch crêpes in Paris!

Had what I think is the best meal I had during my stay in Paris here, it was that good. We went there for breakfast and had no reservation, it was no problem. We ordered different galettes and they were all great; although the very best one wasn’t on the permanent menu, but rather in the chalkboard with the ‘galettes du moment’. It was the Dame Tartin, which had caramelized apples, caramel sauce, vanilla ice cream and chantilly cream. It was divine, heavenly, it may actually be the best thing I’ve tasted in my entire life, no exaggeration. It was so good that we ordered it twice despite already being satisfied and could barely more afterwards. It was that good.

Staff are very welcoming and attentive. We arrived earlier than our reservation time and were seated right away. We ordered both savory and sweet ones. They were all delicious!

The cafe is attached to the restaurant on the corner, but it’s a lot more quiet here, which was nice. The crepe with the caramelized onions was delicious, paired with a glass of the Brut Cider. The service can be a hit or a miss though; the server was standoff-ish and rude at first, and then we witnessed another server escorting out a family of 3 (I think it’s mandatory to each order a crepe and they didn’t want to??)

It is one of the best places you can eat and drink in Paris! You are welcomed by a super nice guy/bouncer. And there is a little waiting time since the place is quite small and cozy. We had tacos called papas and tostada te tinga. Especially the Tostada de Tinga was so freaking good. Micheladas were also amazing. The vibes were so authentic. Inside there is also a speakeasy bar! I highly recommend also visiting the bar since they have the nicest and most unique cocktails! Overall, it’s a gem! Thank you to the team! We will definitely visit again!

The drinks are incredibly creative and well-balanced, especially if you love tequila or mezcal. The bartenders know their stuff and are super friendly. The vibe is laid-back early in the evening and more energetic as the night goes on. It gets busy, but that’s part of the fun. Pro tip: grab some tacos up front before heading into the bar. You’ll thank yourself later. Highly recommend for a unique night out in Le Marais!

Really good tacos and drinks! I highly recommend the Quesabirria and the Paloma (better than the frozen Margarita). It’s best to arrive, let them know you’ll be having some food, and then head to the bar—the bar is candlelit, making it perfect for a date as well ✨♥️

Candelaria is a must if you’re into tacos and great cocktails! The tacos are super tasty, and the frozen margarita is absolutely exceptional. Hidden behind the taqueria is a speakeasy bar with some of the best cocktails I’ve had in Paris. Cool vibe, great flavors highly recommend!

Came here reluctantly as my coworkers fiancé wanted taco’s and visiting from SoCal was def going to entertain them in meeting up but def pleasantly surprised at both the bar (downstairs) and definitely surprised by the food!! The bar area is spacious, good selection of cocktails but if you want a simple martini (or any other cocktail) they’ll gladly oblige!! Note it opens at 6pm! The upstairs food area is cozy, small and may be sharing tables but food/vibe is super welcoming!! Good tacos!!! Had canitas & carne asada and both were solid options for being in Paris!! If i’m back in Paris will be returning esp if i have a taco craving!! Cheers!!

AMAZING Mexican food! The flavours are truly legit. The place is small, with a nice table to share. Totally worth a visit! Prices are also great.

One of the best experiences we had in Paris. Amazing tacos, brilliant frozen margaritas. Authentic real place! It’s a hidden gem you must visit.

This restaurant was recommended by a French gentleman in Paris, but honestly, the food was quite disappointing 😅. We ordered steak, duck, cheese, and onion soups. All of them were rather bland and not tasty at all, except for the French fries served with the steak. I wouldn’t visit this place again in Paris since there are so many better restaurants around. It’s mainly famous for its sandwiches and there’s always a long queue. I’d recommend getting a sandwich to go instead of dining in. Cheese was amazing tho!

The sandwich was very good, but I don't know that it's worth a long queue to take away. A better option, if you can swing it, is to get a seat at the bar. I went by myself and had no trouble finding a single seat. By the time I left, there seemed to be a short wait. Once at the bar, you're treated to a show: Philippe (I think that's his name) seems to run everything behind the counter, and he kindly and quickly delivered my sandwich and wine. When I asked for a glass of water, he was quick to oblige with a smile. The other benefit of being at the bar is you can talk with anyone who seems social nearby. The lovely gentleman to my right lifted his fresh beer to my wine with an, "à votre santé!" as we both admired the chocolate filled choux pastries placed right near us, waiting to be delivered to a nearby table. I've heard you can only order the sandwiches at the bar. Be prepared to bring cash as they don't take CB for anything under €13. After watching the people working so hard in front of you while you eat, you might just want to round up your cash payment by a few extra euros as a tip. Being relatively shy, I was intimidated by the hustle and bustle of the interior as I passed by at first, but then I turned around and forced myself to go in to see what the hype was all about, and I'm so glad I did. It made for an unforgettable afternoon.

We visited due to their reputation of being one of the best sandwich/ baguette places. There was a ling queue at 1pm but it moved fairly quickly. We got a jambon de Bourgogne and for €9 it wasn’t cheap but we enjoyed it. The baguette itself was tasted good and fresh, and generous with its fillings. We recommend a visit and don’t be discouraged by the long line. We went back a few days later to get a basic jambon buerre but at 4pm and it was sold out of baguette .

was a lovely place! i came at 16:00 and there was no line so i sat down at the bar (was really fun to watch all the chaos, great vibes) and got served immediately! i had a small beer at the counter and took my sandwich to go and it cost me 10€ (if you eat or drunk at the table or the terasse you need to pay an additional 2€) the sandwich itself is nothing crazy, just a good sandwich

Apparently, this is the best sandwich in the world. Rated by whom? No clue. Some mysterious council of baguette enthusiasts, perhaps. But the internet said it, so naturally, we believed it — because that’s what we do. Thirty minutes later, there we stood, hungry, jet-lagged, and questioning every life decision that led us to this Parisian sandwich pilgrimage. Locals breezed past us, rolling their eyes while we clutched our Google Maps like lost toddlers. But hey, commitment is commitment. And then — the ham and cheese arrived. Hot, melty, buttery perfection on a crusty baguette that could double as a weapon and a work of art. One bite in, and suddenly the line didn’t feel so dumb anymore. We became those people. The ones who post photos and say “worth the wait” while pretending we didn’t just spend half an hour for a sandwich. Would I do it again? Absolutely. Because apparently, I’m both self-aware and incapable of learning from my mistakes. Five stars for the sandwich. Zero stars for my patience.

We pulled one of my least favorite moves visiting a restaurant, showing up 10 minutes before the kitchen was closing. We had no idea however, and the staff was beyond accommodating. We ordered on the fly and they were kind enough to make us 2 jambon-beurre for takeaway on our way out. Steak frites was our favorite we had on our trip, and way better that a few of the flagship restaurants around the city. Great staff, great atmosphere, amazing sandwiches 🤤

We came here for lunch after seeing it recommended. We wanted to try their famous sandwiches, but they’re only served after 4 PM or for takeout. So we decided to stay for lunch and ordered a burger, duck, and onion soup. The soup was okay, the duck was very greasy but edible, and the burger was terrible — completely raw inside, no salt or seasoning at all. Even my son, who loves burgers, couldn’t finish it. We took their sandwiches to go later, but they were just average (only the baguette was nice). Loud music, crowded, and very little space. Overall, not worth the visit.

We wanted to experience an authentic French affordable restaurant, so we get what we came for. The meal was average to my Indonesian taste, the service was OK, but our meal somehow came super late (dissapointed on this part) The highlight was the interior though, takes you back to superb 20's Art Nouveau 👌🏻 There was no Asian customers whatsoever during our visit, mostly French and American. It's worth to try if you are around St. Denis/ Les Marais.

A Timeless Parisian Experience at Bouillon Julien If you're looking for a truly Parisian dining experience, Bouillon Julien is an absolute gem. The interior is nothing short of breathtaking — ornate mirrors, intricate plasterwork, stained glass ceilings, and elegant murals create an atmosphere that feels both historic and romantic. It's like dining inside a work of art. The food was exactly what you'd hope for in a classic French bistro — authentic, comforting, and delicious. I ordered the escargots, which were perfectly cooked and served with a fragrant garlic and herb butter. Rich, flavorful, and so satisfying. I also had the French onion soup, which was incredibly tasty — deeply caramelized onions, a rich broth, and that perfect cheesy crouton topping. Simple dishes, done exactly right. On top of all this, the prices were very reasonable, especially considering the location, quality, and ambience. It's the kind of place where you can enjoy traditional French cuisine without breaking the bank. Whether you're a tourist looking for an iconic Parisian meal or a local wanting a reliable spot for comfort food, Bouillon Julien delivers on every level. Can’t recommend it enough.

Beautiful authentic French restaurant atmosphere. Service is great and friendly. Food takes time to be served so if you want it fast, go to a fast food restaurant instead. Ordered the pumpkin soup, burgundy snails and butcher's cut of steak and fries. The soup was served luke warm but I would have probably preferred it hotter. The burgundy snails were cooked in traditional sauce, not the best I have had in Paris but still good. The steak is cooked medium done and the sauce is delicious. The bread is cold so don't expect warm or hot bread. Dipped the bread in the burgundy snails' sauce. Overall, price is great and affordable! Very crowded so remember to make reservations.

This popular and gorgeous restaurant is, thankfully, quite affordable. For Paris, the prices are low, and the food tastes good for what you pay. The service was decent, though I have to note that the waitress didn’t bring my change correctly. Reservations are important if you want to spend a few hours dining in this classical baroque-style palace.

I would advise booking in advance as there was a queue outside everytime we passed this restaurant. The decor is stunning art nouveau and this is the reason to come. The food is inexpensive and service is a bit rushed. My partner had onion soup, which was lukewarm and watery. I had an endive and blue cheese salad, which was ok but not very fresh. We both had steak frites and asked fir medium rare but mine was well done and a very tiny portion. The staff were so busy that I couldn't get their attention to get a new steak. It was interesting to visit but I wouldn't go again.

As a “ Art Nouveau “lover and appreciative person I am , this one of my highlights from our Paris trip!! The inside is amazing and had been in business since 1906!! Just amazing architecture , detail etc, we got reservations around 7 and by the time we were done was a long line outside, the food menu is simple and not elaborated, we loved our dishes , the server was very friendly and polite with us … love this place again!

Affordable french cuisine. Great service, great food and great decore. Also, I recommend getting an reservation; I waited 1 hour to get in, but it was truly worth it!

Strolling into Au P’tit Grec, you feel the charm of Paris’s Latin Quarter — but what gives it extra warmth is when the owner greets you in Malay, saying “Selamat datang, dari negara mana?” It’s a small gesture, but it makes you feel instantly at home, especially as a visitor from Malaysia. Now, about the crêpe — it’s lovely. Thin, gently crisped at the edges, with the soft chew in the center. The filling is generous without being overwhelmed: fresh ingredients, balanced flavors, and true to the classic style. Whether you go for a sweet version with caramel or fruit, or a savory galette, you’re treated to a satisfying mix of textures and tastes. In short: a crêpe that delivers on quality, and hospitality that surprises — when the owner speaks your language to welcome you, it turns a good meal into a memorable one.

One of my favorite spots for crêpes in Paris! The portions are generous, the ingredients taste super fresh, and everything is made right in front of you. Whether you go for a savory galette or a sweet crêpe (the Nutella strawberry is a classic), it always hits the spot. There’s usually a line, especially around mealtimes, but it moves quickly and is absolutely worth the wait. Tip: go between dining hours if you want to skip the crowd!

The ingredients were super fresh and high-quality! They make the crepes right in front of you and serve them immediately, so nothing gets cold — which makes a huge difference. The crepe was perfectly cooked with no eggy smell at all, and the packaging was excellent. We tried a savory galette, and it was amazing — especially the amount of cheese, they’re really generous with it! We had it for breakfast, and it was absolutely delicious. There might be a line during busy hours, but it’s totally worth the wait. Highly recommended!

I cannot recommend this place enough! They have an extensive crepe menu with fresh ingredients and friendly staff. The crepes were huge and so filling , definitely one of my best crepe experiences in Paris! Cash only.

I loved the crepes here so so much, they're so generous with the quantites and the crepe is so filling! They use good quality ingredients we tried both sweet and savoury crepes and they were amazing! The only con here is that you can't pay with a card! We had to look for an ATM in order to withdraw cash and pay..

I had a nutella and strawberry crepe and it was fantastic. The strawberries were very fresh, and I went later in the evening so that surprised me. Crepes are very good size so I would recommend sharing. I would definitely eat here again.

Saw this place on a video and so checked it out when visiting Paris. It didn't disappoint! Crepe was huge! Very affordable for Paris. Long queue though but worth the wait.

An exceptional spot in Paris — probably the best ramen I’ve ever had in my life. The fact that we waited an hour and a half to get in didn’t bother us at all, because the reward of tasting that menu was absolutely worth it. I recommend it without hesitation. If I lived in Paris, I’d be there every week. A unique place with a distinctive concept and décor. The food is simply unforgettable. It’s worth the wait — just make sure to scan the QR code at the entrance to join the waiting list before getting in line.

The place is imagination! The set up is very cool. The food was amazing. Fish broth ramen and the Japanese plum wine, ohh my! Dishes are authentic as well the place. Really enjoyed it. Be mindful that no reservations possible, when you arrive you will see people in queue in front of the door, there is a QR code that you need to scan and put yourself into virtual waiting list.

This place is honestly one of the best ramen places I’ve ever been to! The moment you walk in, it feels like you’re in a fish market, the vibe is so cool and detailed. The ramen is incredible. It’s rich broth, chewy noodles, and everything just comes together perfectly. The staff are friendly and the service is quick. It’s such a great experience overall, definitely a must-visit when you’re in Paris!

We have never been to Japan, but we are big fans of Japanese food. The concept of this restaurant was amazing: sitting by a “fishing dock,” with boat equipment around, the sound of water, the boat engine, and the staff speaking loudly in Japanese — probably talking about fishing, the sea, and boats. It was incredibly interesting. I had never experienced anything like this before, and I loved the whole atmosphere. The noise, the friendly chaos, the warm and kind staff, and the perfectly balanced design details all made it very special. The recorded sound was at the perfect level, the details were thoughtful, and even the staff’s voices and coordination felt authentic. It became one of my best Japanese restaurant experiences ever. For a moment, I felt like I was living in Japan, right by the water, next to real fishermen. Unbelievable — and of course, the food was excellent, and the Japanese cola was a lovely touch.

Hidden behind an unassuming door is a whole Japanese fish market! 🐟🇯🇵 The moment you step inside, it feels like you’ve been transported straight to Japan — from the bustling background sounds to the lively shouts of Japanese fishmongers. The atmosphere is insanely realistic and immersive! I ordered the classic Shoyu Ramen de Sardine, and it was amazing — sardines with rich pork bone broth, perfectly chewy noodles, and a deep, savory flavor. One of the most authentic ramen experiences I’ve had outside of Japan. 🍜 The decor deserves special mention. You can tell the owner put so much heart into it — fish crates, a retro ’90s dial phone, a small TV looping Japanese commercials, even a slightly dirty dishcloth in the corner (in the best nostalgic way!). Every detail feels intentional and true to the theme. Overall, an absolutely stunning ramen spot. If you love Japanese vibes and authentic flavors, this place is a must-visit! 🌊✨

After exploring dozens if not hundreds or ramens in Tokyo, New York, and numerous well rated places globally , I think this is one of the best experiences I ever had. The setting is unique and beautiful and the gimmick of the decor is well balanced so you feel it’s unique and not over done. The queue is well managed and advanced - especially in that quarter and the food itself is really good and rich- the menu is unique in the local ramen scene as well. I can’t rate this high enough - go if you are in the area

Tucked behind an unremarkable door is a ramen shop that opens into what feels like a full-on Japanese fish market. The sounds, the decor — everything instantly transports you straight to Japan. I tried the sea bream paitan ramen; flavorful, though a touch salty. Even so, the atmosphere made the 30-minute wait totally worth it. All in all, it’s a wonderfully immersive spot with great flavors and an authentic Japanese vibe. Definitely worth a visit!

Tasty aromatic food that is actually served hot in OK portions. The service is slow. It took a while for us to be seated and another while for someone to come take the order. The place is rather busy and the tables are small. Not very suitable for long lunches, especially not at peak times.

the beef tartare is not very tasty, lack of flavor, and a bit dry, the potato along side is crispy, but dryvas well. maybe other dishes are better, but not this one. the portion is generous though, service and vibe is nice.

Delicious food, good portions and great prices for Paris! We stopped at chez Galdines for lunch, had two mains, two coffees and tap water and paid less than 20 euro pp. The place isn't glamorous but it's perfect for a lunch break.

We left this restaurant feeling not only disappointed but also uncomfortable. It’s hard to tell whether we were being racially profiled or simply ignored because we didn’t speak French, but our experience was noticeably different from the tables around us. Despite having a reservation and being seated promptly, service quickly went downhill. Tables seated after us received water and refills long before we did. It took nearly 40 minutes just to get our first glasses, and even then, our repeated requests for refills were ignored while others received them automatically. As for the food, don’t let the photos fool you. While French cuisine is often served warm, ours arrived cold in the center. The cod was not only cold but bitter and fishy. The duck steak was served blue without anyone asking how we’d like it cooked. It was extremely gamey and difficult to chew. The only saving grace was the chicken burger, which was actually quite good. It’s really disappointing to see a restaurant treat guests so differently based on language or background. After doing extensive research and feeling reassured by positive reviews, this experience was a huge letdown and left a lasting negative impression. All in all, maybe stay away if you’re a tourist that doesn’t speak French or don’t look the part. They will treat you with disrespect and you will feel the discomfort and discrimination!!

Our experience here was extremely disappointing. It was our first time in Paris, and after researching and booking weeks in advance, we were so excited to dine here, but everything from the service to the food fell short. Even with a reservation, we waited quite a while to be seated, and had to wait another 30 minutes before anyone came to take our order. The staff repeatedly overlooked our table, refilling water and serving bread to others while skipping us entirely. We had to ask multiple times just to get water, and the bread finally arrived with our food instead of beforehand. When our dishes came out, they were cold in the middle and the cheese based items were hardened and inedible. Servers checked on every table around us but never once came back to ours. Our group of four couldn’t even finish half our meal before deciding to leave. It was such a disappointing start to our trip and truly ruined our first night in Paris. There are so many better restaurants in the city that offer great food and genuine hospitality, save your time and money and go elsewhere.

We reserved a table for two in the afternoon on the same day and went there around 20h. The food was amazing, the drinks were okay.

Walked in for brunch and were seated right away around noon in a relatively tight spot - seating for three, but by the window! The place was packed for Saturday brunch and was busy. They have good prix-fixe options or you can order ala-carte which is what we went for. Almost everything on the menu is meat forward, so wouldn't recommend for vegetarians. Having said that, the salads accompanied with every plate were clearly high quality. Produce just stood out and food was very delicious. Service was great, and our service could communicate with us in English. Food arrives within 20-mins of placing the order. Fairly attentive staff!

One of the oldest bistros in town, but unfortunately, it shows its age in all the wrong ways—especially when it comes to service. From the moment I arrived, the experience was disappointing. No one greeted or seated me, and after I sat myself, it took far too long for a server to even acknowledge my presence. The service was not just slow—it was shockingly unprofessional. Servers were unfriendly and inattentive, and to make matters worse, I witnessed bread being handled with bare hands and no gloves, which raises serious hygiene concerns. Water and bread weren’t brought unless specifically requested, which adds to the sense of being unwelcome. The one saving grace? The food. It was genuinely tasty and well-prepared, which makes it even more frustrating that the service drags the entire experience down. The one star is for the food! Great food, but the service is some of the worst I’ve encountered. A real shame for such a historic place!!!

We enjoyed our experience at Polidor: a historic old restaurant where you’re seated close to fellow diners and you eat cozy food at a leisurely pace. We had the 3-course meal and found it a great value. Service takes a little while so be patient. Chat with your neighbors. We met a nice Brazilian man from São Paulo who shared his carafe of water with us when we ran out. He told us about the northeast of Brazil- a beautiful coastal area that we will check out some time.

This French restaurant was a great find! The food was absolutely delicious, the service was quick and friendly, and the prices were very reasonable. They also have a lovely selection of wines that pair perfectly with the meals. The atmosphere is cozy and feels very family-friendly. The space is a bit tight, with tables quite close to each other, but it still manages to be very pleasant and comfortable. Overall, a wonderful place to enjoy a tasty and relaxed meal. I’d definitely go back!

Wonderful restaurant! We got the menu for 25 eur pp which had a starter, main dish, and dessert. The salad was delicious, then for the main course we got the duck and chicken which were both great, and ended with the chocolate souffle (YUM) and flan. Everything tasted great. The service was friendly and relatively quick considering it was packed. You should get a reservation ahead of time. Be mindful that you will be sharing a table with other people, but it adds for lively conversation. We found this restaurant in the Rick Steves travel guide book, but apparently it is famous for being in the movie "Midnight in Paris." Overall it as one of our favorite meals in France and a bargain!

So disappointed in what I thought was going to be a great experience. Cramped seating - we were wedged between two other couples in a table suited for four. Food DISGUSTING- we both had the recommended Beef Bourguignon. It was a lump of gristle and fat. I couldn’t even cut through mine. My husband gagged and had to remove it from his mouth!!!!! Service- rushed and unprofessional. Waitress put a salad in front of my husband left it there for five minutes before realizing it was for someone else! Didn’t ask if he’d touched it and proceeded to deliver to other patron!!!! This placed was packed, obviously many other oversold and misled tourists!! Go elsewhere!

The food is typical French. Honestly it’s a great price for good quality. The wine list is nice. Service is pretty fast. We enjoyed it all

We came to Polidor because of its history and charm and, to be fair, the atmosphere is great. It originally opened as a cheese shop and restaurant back in 1845, which is pretty incredible. But the service really took away from the experience. Our waitress, brunette with two braided pigtails, barely paid attention to our table. Bread and wine were both forgotten, and we had to remind her more than once. It was not busy at all, so it was hard to understand why we were being overlooked. We are both from California and used to a different standard of service, and at a certain point, we just started chuckling at how off everything was. We still tried to stay in good spirits and enjoy the setting, but the overall experience was not great. The food was okay, but nothing special. Polidor has a lot going for it in terms of history and vibe, but it really needs better service to match the setting.

Small portions with great tastes. I was surprised the shrimp ravioli turns out to be har gao in Dimsum lol. Waiter was a chill dude and impatient in a funny way. They give you sour dough bread with a huge slob of butter. Tapas were pretty tasty but fish had bones and razor clams had shards of clams. Atmosphere was fine, nothing bad but nothing amazing either. Would recommend if you're not super hungry but want small bites and a place chill to hang out.

We felt like true locals at this spot! Everyone was standing with their glasses of wine while the gentleman shucked oysters right in front of us. I am so happy we made it over and thoroughly enjoyed!

Oysters were some of the freshest I’ve had and were a decent medium to large size. The larger ones coming from Normandy. Service was slow despite it being half occupied but we did not mine as it is was only 1 person managing the drinks and raw bar. We would happily come again on future trips. There are also many other items not on the menu that may be worth trying. A good wine selection at various price points.

Fantastic little place. Great food nibble and great wine. Bar staff were exceptionally helpful in selecting wines and giving options. Had some of my favourite wine ever there and the prices were very reasonable. Spent around 4 hours here but could have easily stayed longer. The oyster bar next door was also grear. Delicious oysters, however 22 euro for 6 is a little on the high side

Come for the vibes! It’s tiny so it always feels crowded, but it is a good time. Would be worth coming just for drinks, but the food is solid too.

The place is always packed for a good reason. French style tapas and a great wine selection. Crowd is nice and the bartenders were very helpful with a bit of that hot french attitude. Try the duck hearts and seared tuna.

Excellent flavours, and it was great that the portions are small so you can have a lot of variety. The bread and butter were good, and unlimited. I enjoyed the scallops the most, and I would certainly go back for seconds. Unfortunately the razor clams were not cleaned properly and had sand in them, so I could only put 3 stars for the food (it’s otherwise a solid 4.5). The space is very tight, and there is little legroom between the stools and the table top. My legs were very tired after the meal. The sorbet was very refreshing.

I ordered delivery, the order was prepared in a very reasonable amount of time. The ingredients are fresh and fairly plentiful. I ordered two different half banh mi’s- Demi jabon beurre & the VFC (Vietnamese fried chicken). I enjoyed the Jabon beurre the most- packed with different types of meat including pork floss which I’ve never tried before, there’s also something inside that gave it a kinda sweet and kinda cheesy taste which was nice. There’s some sort of pâté on this sandwich too. I found some of the meats to have too much fat on them so I removed prior to eating, which took away quite a bit of the product. My first time trying Banh mi in Europe and I’ll definitely say it’s pretty authentic. There’s an option to add red chili which was nice. The friend chicken banh mi was underwhelming. Don’t taste much of the fried chicken, it’s fairly unpronounced, especially between all the baguette bread. Can’t complain though! It was a great value for just 10/11 euros for both sandwiches. The baguette bread was tasty, fresh and crunchy. I’d definitely return, hopefully for a sit down meal next time.

One of the best banh mi’s i ever had. We got the VFC and the sambal aubergine. The bread, mayo and veggies were all fresh, tasty and beautifully accompanied the mains. Both sandwiches were cohesive. I added the pate to the VFC, which was sooooo delicious. The chicken was so flavorful and still crunchy even with all the add ons. the aubergine was perfectly seasoned, not oily and very flavored. We asked for them spicy and they were actually spicy. The donuts - insane. So light and fluffy, not greasy, and fillings were delicious. Had the kaya and the passionfruit. Do not skip And last, the people working were so nice and clearly cared about us as customers. Low key gonna have this a second time in our short trip

Fried chicken banh mi was delicious! Definitely recommended getting the Kaya donut too. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quick meal in Paris.

I was nostalgic about my trip to Vietnam so I came here to get a Banh mi and was like the original Vietnamese. 100% recomended, try the donuts

Great food and even greater service! I can really recommend the VFC banh-mi, the classic jambon banh-mi and the aubergine banh-mi (which is everything we ordered). The passion fruit and pandan donuts were also a personal favorite.

Great street front cafe serving amazing Banh Mi. My Cintronelle Chicken was fresh and very tasty. I tried both of the Yeo drinks since I had never had them. I liked them both. Both my travel companions loved their Banh Mi’s also. The only Binh Mi we didn’t have was the Sunny side egg. Although as we sat on our colorful plastic seats for lunch we saw someone else loving that one too. We were so full we had to skip the delicious looking donuts for dessert. Seeking out Nonette during our visit to Paris was worth it! Give it a try, and also visit their place across the street called the Hood.

We came looking for delicious, spicy, and flavorful banh mi and were totally blown away. The flavors and textures are authentic (also better than new York given the very good bread). I had the fried chicken banh mi snackbox with a kaya donut and my partner had the Dac Biet special with a Chantilly chili oil donut. We were supremely satisfied and can't wait to come back to try everything else!

Great spot. Definitely recommend eating here especially if you eat meat— the house dish (“Mi va Mi”) is delicious. The sausage was impeccable! Would recommend eating inside as the outside is close to traffic.

Excellent falafel place with indoor and outdoor seating - on a corner where Falafel seems to be the destination. Outstanding taste and portions with very friendly service. Walking distance from The Notre Dame Cathedral. A Go To place for falafel next time in Paris.

very good falafel and pita for which we didn’t have to wait too long. it’s opposite the famous falafel place but if you don’t want to wait too long this is superb to. especially with the spicy sauce and fried aubergine on top. plus it’s quite fast when ordering it to go as the waiter already goes along the queue, takes down orders and collects the money. when you get your food just quickly hop down to the seine and sit at the river - it’s a beautiful experience!

I came here because the other popular falafel place was closed. So joined the long queue. I was blown away by how delicious the falafel and the grilled chicken pita was. It had grilled eggplant as well. It just melted in my mouth. It’s one of the best falafels I have eaten.

The first impression of a nice falafel store is directly deceptive. The waiter is super unfriendly and you are turned away if you order too little. (Too little = 2 falafel / 22€) The bread was very dry, the delivered tubes of sauces were very watery and disgusting. One wonders if these tubes are ever cleaned. The store inside looks very unkempt, greasy and the toilets are more than dirty and without paper. Better go across the street to L'As Du Falafel....

Best falafel spread. I came here two lunches in a row for my last days in Paris. The falafel’s have a juicy yet crispy fried layer with a great spiced seasoning all over. Loved the couscous and beans too. Highly recommend!

This used to be one of our go-to places in Paris. The food was pretty good and the prices were reasonable. Unfortunately, quality and prices went the opposite ways, and much too far. A simple veggie platter now costs €16 and what you get is a collection of oddly curated foods, displayed in a disappointingly raw way. A Schnitzel platter costs €19 and what you get is anything close to what you would expect for this price. The pita was burnt, the replacement pita was burnt even more, etc. The place is dirty, we had to replace glasses multiple times, the floor was flooded with food crumbs (although we were one of the first guests in our section), and the place just stinks of bad smell. I tried to provide gentle feedback to the owner suggesting that if they need to maintain these prices, they should be paying more attention to cleanliness and general ambience. Based on their answers, I don’t think they feel the same way. They think inflation alone justifies higher prices and guests will accept this. We won’t. It was our last time here.

Appetizers were good and the pizza was mostly fine. Service was a bit slow with a few mistakes. The atmosphere, however, is infernal — way too noisy, your head starts hurting after 15 minutes. Prices aren’t too high, but I definitely wouldn’t come back during rush hours. Tiramisu is an easy 10/10 only reason i gave this restaurant 3 stars

A lively and always-busy spot in the Sentier district, known for its great pizzas and vibrant atmosphere. Reservations are essential — and be sure to show up on time to secure your table. The food is fresh and satisfying, and it’s worth ordering everything you want at once since the pace can get fast. A fun and flavorful stop in central Paris.

We had the Arancini, Hotline Pizza and the Caccio y pepe. The caccio was really good, so was the pizza. The sauce on the pizza was a highlight. The atmosphere and service were the biggest standouts. This place is fun. Our server Michele was absolutely phenomenal and so was the rest of the staff. It was a great experience.

Thoroughly enjoyed my time here! The interior is designed so well. It was such a vibe eating here. Wonderful spot to have a fun dinner! Drinks: the Bellini Spritz was a bit dilute, the coco bello was really good though. Food: Out of the the whole Torre dei Prodotti, the burrata and pappa al pomodoro is insanely good. The meats were fine, but this kept us wanting more. The Hotline pizza was also yummy, nothing overly special, but still quite yummy. Overall, great food, great service and spectacular vibes. Highly recommend!

This restaurant is very nicely done, aesthetically pleasing for sure! Drinks and food are delicious! However customer service from our server Matteo could have been a little better. It felt like we were being judged while him and another service kept looking over and laughing while speaking their language. Other than that I think it’s definitely worth visiting and getting a little taste of Italy in Paris.

Our experience was great as soon as we walked up. The hostess was kind, our server was fun, his attitude made our visit even better. We shared a pizza that he suggested and it was perfect. Highly suggest getting here early or making a reservation, it is a very popular place

Pizzeria Popolare has an amazing lively atmosphere and stylish interior. It’s usually crowded and a bit noisy, but the vibe makes it fun. Definitely one of the best spots in Paris for authentic Neapolitan-style pizza.

Very good traditional japonais food in sainte Anne street in Paris. I have been there several times and will go beach again. The food is actually very good if you like Asian and notably the japonais food. The service is very quick, but not caring. Most of the time there is a line outside that you have to wait 10-20 minutes. No reservations needed. The ambiance is just ok. Enjoy!

If you love Japanese food this is a place to go. Absolutely delicious. Thank you for the staff and chefs who brings this simple and very important joy into lives

I always see people lining up for this resto and finally tried it yesterday. The food was really average, yakisoba was okay, the ramen soup was too salty. For the price it didn’t hurt to try, but it’s not a place I’d line up for.

Came just right at the time they open 11.30am. Already few people obviously as hungry as I am. First time here. Selected Menu A @€15: Shiosu ramen + 7 Gyosa Gyosa was good but not fried enough. The ramen soup was well seasoned and flavored though the noodle was more a Chinese egg noodle than Japanese true ramen. It was tasty though a bit shy of another slice of meat (probably because it’s the menu). The service was very fast and efficient and no unnecessary talk. It’s definitely more of eat and go than taking all the time in the world.

We ordere shio l/ramen, miso ramen, and gyoza, and all are good. The broth is clean yet flavorful, not too heavy. The noodles taste fresh, a little bit clumpy, but I think it’s because it’s homemade. The gyoza is really good, very recommended! I have been to several good ramen places and I like this place so much. The place might be very hot in a summer day, it was 26 °C when I visited and it was barely bearable.

The butter corn lamen was heaven and so reasonably priced. Had to wait in line for about 15 minutes, but so worth it, the food was excellent and I loved the ambience as well.

This restaurant offers delicious and affordable Japanese food right in the city center of Paris. Both the fried rice and noodles are amazing and the staffs there are super friendly. Be prepared to get in line if you go during peak hours.

Got the tomato “salad”…. More like a sliced tomato garnished with a bit of green stuff and olive oil and half a lemon. There aren’t enough ingredients to even call it a salad and why the hell do I have to make it. I could buy a tomato and lemon at the grocery store and it would be cheaper than this 6€ “salad”. Waitress was whatever, inside is cute. My partners food looked good but I didn’t try any so I can’t review that.

Says best falafel in the world and that does it justice. Have had a lot of falafel including the one in the same street where people queue for and this was better than all. The falafel itself had so much flavor and that with an amazing hummus and some mixed vegetables (cucumber, cole, carrot, aubergine) the aubergine was so nice and silky and just everything together was amazing. We also had an kadaïf which they first gave the wrong one we said and they gave us the other right away, the man was very sweet and helpful. All together would definitely recommend! Also over l’as du falafel. (Or maybe do a tasting of both and taste for yourself;))

Went with some friends as a last minute stop. We’re visiting from LA and our group needed to meet back up in less than 30 minutes. There was no wait and so I entered even though I’ve never liked falafel at home. When I exited, I loved falafel. It was a transformative experience. The service was amazing and fast, and even though they didn’t speak strong English, they were very helpful and kind. The food was very reasonably priced, and it was so damn good. We got the chicken breast, curry, and falafel special. The portions were generous and really really good. The place is very nice and clean and it has a very homey environment. They were very welcoming, and we didn’t feel out of place at all as a group of POC teens. We were able to make it back to our group in time. My only regret is that we weren’t able to stay longer. 100% must visit if I’m ever back in Paris again. This may be my only review on Google reviews but this place made it worth it.

We really enjoyed the food, everything was super tasty! The staff were so nice and even surprised the kids with a free dessert. Totally recommend!

You might have heard that L’as du Falafel is the place to go for falafel in Le Marais… so did we. But believe me, the falafel at Chez Hanna is the best one in Paris, hands down. The hummus is smooth and flavourful, the falafel melts in your mouth, the fried aubergines have a silky texture and the fresh vegetables give an amazing bite. The portion is big, and filling. We had a kadayif for desert, and was amazing! I find it hard to find in levantine restaurantes lately. I would recommend having it with a coffee to complement its sweetness. The staff is funny, and helpful. Very friendly people. I’ll come back next time in Paris!

Some of the best falafel I ever tried! The menu offers too many delights to try them all, but the falafel platter and the Moroccan chicken were amazing! If you are in a rush or don't want to sit down, you can also opt for a pita sandwich to go, though I'd recommend it for the atmosphere of dining on the narrow street alone. The service was also fantastic - pay no heed to older reviews. We had a good waiter who took great care of us!

This was seriously an amazing restaurant!! Our waitress Carola was so nice and gave us recommendations on what to order which helped so much! Navigating Paris as English speakers only is hard enough but she was able to explain everything and the food recommendations were AMAZING!! The food was seriously so good and it came out so fast. Great service.

Lovely staff that speak perfect English. The blue cheese burger melted in my mouth. Good portion size and great price. Definitely recommend!

The burgers are decent but this restaurant has the worst fries in paris. If they are not under cooked, they are burnt like my order today. Its disappointing everytime. Whats the point of eating a burger if you cant even enjoy the fries as well.

Le Camion Qui Fume is a burger lover's dream come true! The burgers are absolute perfection - juicy, flavorful, and made with high-quality ingredients. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make for an enjoyable dining experience. Don't miss out on this culinary gem!

Pretty good burgers at pretty good prices ! Lots of options too and so many different sauces to choose from. Really enjoyed the meal and will definitely go back :)

There all burgers are just lip smacking. Been there a lot of time with my girlfriend. Every-time they have given me a super hot burgers and fries. Also I love to modify my burger and they never disappoint. There all chefs seems genius.

Wonderful service by Samsad Miya, food was fantastic with many interesting sauce choices.

I came here after reading the reviews knowing it was either going to be fantastic or terrible. I took the risk, and unfortunately it was not the best experience or burgers... My girlfriend orders the bleu with no caramelised onion medium cooked meat. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger medium-rare in a meal with cheesy fries and coke. After afew minutes of sitting we got our meals, except she had the cheesy fried on her plate, and I had a serving of fries. So I thought no worries they made a simple mistake, we told them and they took the extra fries away. My burger taste was decent, bacon was crispy and the meat was tender even though it was cooked closer to medium with no red in sight... Now comes the bad part of my girlfriends burger. The meat was so raw. It was closer to raw vs. Medium rare. Even unedible by my standards...so I thought ok we can't eat this, I'll ask them just to heat it up since we ate a small portion and I didn't want to be rude. They said they don't have a microwave so they will just make a new one for us. Ok that sounded great until they came out with the new burger. Firstly, it had caremelized onion. I would understand if they were busy and had customers. But they had none except a couple of delivery orders. But the worst part of it all, the meat was just as raw as the first burger! Absolutely rediculous 😩 (edit: it seems just 1/4th of the patty was quite rare, like their stove is missing heating spots or something...) Experience aside. The burger was 6 out of 10. Daniel Thaiger Thailand is still my no 1. There was no juice coming out of my burger and the cheese was strange. If you decide to eat here, I hope you have better luck than us

Delicious ramen and chicken rice. Came here on a Sunday night, not crowded, so easy to chat with friends. The restaurant is cozy and the service is good.

Food is acceptable. Waitress to tonight was dishonest. Added extra boiled egg to the meal when there was already included one. 26 euros for a bowl of ramen with meagre slices of porc roti, and nori. Noodles not the best. Last time I go.

I felt really welcome and comfortable here. We came for dinner on two evenings during our stay in Paris. On the first day I had chicken shoyu, and on the second day I tried zaru ramen. Both were light and tasty. My husband had the Akamaru and was impressed that it tasted just like Ippudo in Japan. They also have a kids’ menu! My children really liked the fried dumplings.

Great Ramen. The best I found in Paris so far. The broth was really good and so were the toppings, but a special callout to the perfectly cooked noodles. I took the ”spicy” Ramen which was excellent, even though I would say it was particularly spicy. Space is tight and tables close to each other, so not a place if you want to have a nice dinner for two.

Absolutely stunning! A great and very tasty ramen in Paris! What more can you ask for? Beer? Well, they have it as well!

Waited in line for an hour before we got our table. Food arrived pretty quickly. This is a casual ramen place with quick turnover. Recommend going in pairs or solo because tables are small. The spicy pork broth was thick and delicious - loved the mushrooms. The veggie broth however lacked flavor and was boring. The desserts were amazing - get the chocolate one. Ramen can cost up to €19. Fun experience overall!

Decent ramen place the broth was not as elaborate as i have seen. Chicken buns were delicious. i would skip the octopus balls. mostly dough. decent but no repeat for me.

I love this place hungrier than when I came. I don’t know what it is, but I need more places to start adding sauces onto their food. First off most of my meat had so much fat on it that I could barely eat it or I had to spit it out. It was very dry and needed some sort of sauce or spice. It was just lacking flavor. I took a few bites and gave up after chewing on so much fat. I really wanted to love this because I am a big kebab girl

It gets very busy here and you may not find a table but the food is delicious, the menu is limited but what they do have is tasteful and full of flavor. You can get away with getting two wraps a person and it’s filling. They were understanding of my dairy allergy and reassured they do not use dairy products.

Similar to every other American who has come to Urfa Dürüm, I came here because Anthony Bourdain highly recommended it. It’s a Kurdish restaurant in a gritty part of Paris that sells dürüm wraps, which are essentially a Turkish street food made by rolling soft flatbread around grilled meat and fresh vegetables. After a rough first meal in the City of Light that was a €50 half chicken, my soul needed this. Everything is made to order right in front of your face, and it SHOWS. We went with a chicken and a beef durum that ran €9.50, which gave my Chase Sapphire Preferred card a much needed breather. I’m struggling to find adjectives that describe how good this soft flatbread was, and I’m rarely at a loss for words. The best I can come up with is “tangibly fresh.” I preferred the beef to the chicken, as it almost melted in your mouth. So damn tender. Whenever anyone asks me for a Paris rec, Urfa Dürüm will be right near the top of my list. A must hit when in the city that the US Men's Basketball team won a 2024 gold medal in.

Stopped for a super quick dinner after noticing Urfa Durum the previous evening. Nothing but fresh and efficient. The Vegetarian wrap was awesome !! Well done e from Sydney Australia

Everything was on point! The food was so good, and the service was like a warm hug: clean, tasty, and friendly. Seriously, the best Kurdish kebab ever!

Firstly, I highly recommend this street-food restaurant. It's a Kurdish sandwich shop. They advertise that the meat is French-sourced and NOT Halal. This often indicates good quality meat. It showed in their delicious kebabs. There are many shops in the area that advertise halal meat..to me that is an indicator of cheap and unknown sourced meat. Most of them are not halal anyways and poor quality. The kebab here was cooked on charcoal which is not common in Paris. You could taste the bbq flavor of the charcoal. The attendants were friendly. I have had kebabs twice as expensive and not as good. I will return again and again and recommend it. And inexpensive, around €10 for the sandwiches.

Probably the worst sandwich I’ve ever had in my life. We ordered one minced beef sandwich and one veal sandwich — both were completely tasteless. The veal was full of fat, and we literally had to leave the sandwich halfway through. On top of that, the staff had zero sense of customer service: no greeting, barely any communication, and they looked angry and tired. That’s not the customer’s fault.

love the chicken and waffle here! it's exactly what I'm looking for! and the flavor is just right, I chose the spicy one, the waffle is great as well, cream is smooth, but still a bit oily, I had to remove my waffle a bit to avoid soaking in the oil 😂 , the service is great, I love the menu! the vibe is just like the American vibe, just avoid sitting next to the toilet, because some people might forgot to close the door, although the staff always close it immediately.

Wow Unbelievable! Coming from the United States and trying this food was outstanding! They use the perfect seasoning for the chicken, The waffles were fluffy and tasty. The staff were friendly helpful I truly enjoyed eating at this place.

We went here on Sunday morning and we all enjoyed our food my husband and friend got the original chicken and waffles and I got a chicken plate with 🍠. So good we had all been craving crispy chicken and American comfort food. Would recommend

Made it to Gumbo Yaya and it was a vibe. The establishment is small scale inside, so there is a little bit of a wait. The staff was very kind and the music was on point with all the back to back RnB jams. Now, the food....those yams 🍠 wewhhhh child, sooo tender and sweet 😋 it made me feel like I'm ready for Thanksgiving. The mac and cheese was not as moist as I'd like it but wasn't horrible but I had more hard corners than I'd prefer. Lastly the chicken 🐔 the breading had a nice crunch but the chicken itself wasn't seasoned, to the batter was where you seen the seasonings. The chicken was a little dry but not horrible...I still knocked a hole in it because we were hungry lol. I'd still tell folks to try GY simply because there are not a lot of soul food places in Paris.

I came here with a friend for their famous chicken and waffles. We were not initially served the whipped butter, and was only given to us after i asked for it to be added. Their response was that they don't always give it out, yet somehow it's included on the menu? Other people also had pickles with their order but not us. I heard the waitress tell another table that they had run out, but that's not something we were told. The place is very poorly ventilated on the inside and smelled very strongly of frying oil. The food was good, but the overall experience is strange and doesn't necessarily scream hospitable or welcoming.

Been going to this restaurant for awhile mow. However, it was quite disappointing this time. Tried their chicken biscuit, the chicken is soggy and and not crispy/crunchy at all and there is barely any sauce(supposed to be a honey butter sauce) in it.

Waffle sandwich was delicious and well seasoned !!Mac and cheese was a little dry, as it had just been reheated. Fast and kind service. Would return for the chicken and waffles.

Great flavor pancakes, the service is good and fast. I wish they would add more fresh red fruits to the pancakes. The pancakes are fluffy and taste good. The honey is also good. Portions are medium size. Lots of seating inside, small breakfast restaurant with good service.

In Paris, a spot called Kitchen, oh what a delight! For breakfast or lunch, it's a beacon of light. With options for all, from veggie to vegan, Gluten-free too, their culinary beacon! From bagels so grand to pancakes so fluffy, Coffee that sings, and juices quite huffy (with flavor, of course!) Take away or delivery, they've got you covered, Seven days a week, a true gem discovered! From eight to two, a midday repast, Till three-thirty on weekends, the good times will last. So click and collect, or just stroll on by, Kitchen, Paris, will make your taste buds fly!

I’m glad we found this place during our weekend in Paris. Gluten free and vegan options. Banana bread and gluten free pancakes are so good. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. The place is not big and there are big tables to share. Vibes : kindness, community , casual

Vegetarian breakfast spot that’s open early. Cozy interior, with lots of healthy options. Recommend stopping by.

The iced latte was immaculate and the avocado toast, according to my expert friend, was a delight - 8 out of 10 stars (could have been more avocado).

Great brunch place for all diets. Our group had omnivores, gluten-free, and vegan friends, and everyone left happy. Delicious food + super welcoming staff

Fresh stew with perfect seasoning and delicious homemade cookies! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. A must-stop spot — highly recommended!

Ooh la la, this was some hot food! Always eager to try Sichuan places wherever we go and this met our expectations and then some. The cucumber salad was perfect. The waitress did us a favour by asking us to not order level 4 or 5 and bless her for that. Even if you are feeling extremely adventurous, stick to level 3 and enjoy the food. Small place, but very kind and attentive staff and management.

I was missing spices and this place was recommended on Reddit so I gave it a go. It is indeed proper spicy! Level 3 is kind of the intended spice level, and 4 is double the spice of 3, while 5 is triple the level of 3. My partner and I found 3 to be perfect, but I'd definitely recommend 2 or even 1 if you do not regularly eat spicy food. We had the cucumber salad, laziji, and mabo doufu. All super tasty! Perfect pick me up after a long day. I do not remember what they called laziji in French but it is really good and you should definitely order it! Look for 辣子鸡 on the menu!!

Very very disappointed! Visited this place with a friend (originally from Sichuan) First of all, the waiting time is very veryyyy long, we thought that it is due to freshly prepared dishes, which is the case, but it’s not the reason, the reason is that they prioritise deliveries, so waited around an hour to get the dishes, which was disappointing in portions for the price!

This is easily my favourite restaurant to ever exist. If you want the best meal on planet earth. Check it out this restaurant. It’s good, like really good.

Superb szechuan restaurant. Came very late and the staff squeezed me in. Food was very fresh and tasty. They ask for a heat level 1 to 5. If you have not had this cuisine before I would advise staying well under 3. I went to 5 and it was very powerful! Having over-ordered they kindly packed mine to take home. This place is legit. Booking for more than two diners at busy times would be advisable. Its very busy and that's a good sign. Thanks for the great meal!

Amazing food and great service. The food can get very spicy so please be wary before ordering you level of spice unlike us who got too ambitious. We had the cucumber, the chicken and the shredded potato and all were ridiculously delicious. Hands down one of the best meals I’ve had in Paris!

Habla Manotas, This restaurant is really nice. Not at all the usual Chinese. Try it and make up your own mind. And yes be aware that level 3 is quite spicy. And spiciness is my thing. The service is efficient, the place quite small (-+18 at once) and the dishes are simply good. We had the cold noodles (1) and the cucumber salad (level 3, which reminded me of a thai papaya salad, nicely spicy and good) as a starter and the eggplant with minced meat and the fried chicken.

Standing dining experience was great fun. Food was good but what added to the whole experience were the staff and the positive noise from all the customers. Lovely place

L’Avant Comptoir du Marché 🇫🇷 — one of those Paris gems that reminds you why eating here is pure joy. Standing at the counter with a glass of wine in hand, surrounded by the buzz of locals, you dive into small plates bursting with flavour and soul. Every bite — from the perfectly seared meats to the creamy croquettes and rich charcuterie — feels honest, bold, and deeply satisfying. The team behind the counter brings it all together with warm, witty service that makes the experience even better. Unpretentious, delicious, and full of Parisian energy — this is how you do bistronomy right. ❤️🇫🇷

I absolutely love this place and its unique concept! No reservations, it’s first come, first served. You order your drinks and tapas directly at the bar, and if you’re lucky, you’ll grab a table (and maybe even a chair!). But honestly, it’s all part of the charm. One of my favorite spots in Paris to enjoy amazing bites, chat with friends, and soak in the fun, lively atmosphere.

Great food, laid back casual atmosphere. Can be quite challenging to find a table but adds to the charm of the spot. Great place for drinks and food.

Great bar, not recommended if you come with kids. Great food very friendly staff. If you want to go out have a drink and eat something from small plates this is the perfect place. THERE IS A LEGEND BEHIND THE BAR !

a pleasant surprise. got in without knowing, ate half of the menu. excellent food, vibrant atmosphere. attentive staff. will be back soon.

One of the first spots we make sure we get to every time we are lucky enough to be in Paris. Seafood available from next door and a great selection of bar food and wine by the glass. Must visit.

If you’re craving authentic Singapore satay, this place is a must-try! The satay is grilled to perfection – smoky, juicy, and full of flavor in every bite. What really makes it stand out is the peanut sauce: thick, rich, and slightly sweet, it complements the meat so well that you can’t stop dipping. Every skewer tastes fresh, tender, and perfectly marinated. It’s the kind of comfort food that reminds you why satay is a true Singapore classic. Friendly service and a cozy atmosphere make the experience even better. Highly recommended for both locals and tourists.

My first time eating at The Hood, even though I’ve been following their Instagram for a long time — and it definitely lived up to the hype! The food was delicious, especially the fried chicken in the Nasi Lemak. The Hainan chicken rice was great too. For dessert, the pandan chiffon was such a pleasant surprise. They even let us sample the durian chiffon, which was really yummy! Can’t wait to come back and try the Laksa next time!

THE BESTTT ASIAN FOOD I HAVE EVER TRIED IN FRANCEEE!! oh my god their nasi lemak is to die for (i still crave it until now..) then the kaya bread UGH LOVELY! i must give it 10 stars if i can (exaggerating, but it is true this place know how to serve gewd authentic asian taste) milo dinosaurus or whatever it is is also gewd!! and their place is also soo warm and cozy <3 located in a very nice area! 🩷🩷🩷

Incredible spot! Really an A+ in flavor. I was so excited to check out this spot and get the chicken both ways and it did not disappoint! They were very accommodating as I was with my mother and my baby (in a stroller). Took us in immediately as we had a reservation and set us up at a table that worked well. The food is stand out. Some of the best eggplant I have ever had. Everything was spectacular. Will return soon!

An absolute gem of a place that I couldn’t recommend more to people! We happened to stumble upon this because our Airbnb was in the 11th and I’m so happy we did! The food was incredible, full of intense flavours, interesting textures, and delivered quickly. The restaurant has a very cool vibe to it and is quite multicultural (with the staff speaking both French and English). Our waiter happened to be the chef and owner of the place, which was a massive privilege and we managed to have a lovely chat with her. A friendly and welcoming restaurant with delicious food that I would recommend to everyone!

We came here on a weekend morning, and it’s such a pleasant surprise! The food is excellent, and the decoration inside is also great. We like the kaya toast with eggs and the curry, and the pandan latte is also pretty good. Highly recommend!

My partner (Thai) and I went here on our second day in Paris. Easily the best meal so far and the only place we will go back to in the future (so far). Service was excellent (Knowledgeable English speaking waitress!), but even better: flavor! We had the spicy fruit salad, roasted chicken rice, and Nasi lemak chicken rice. We’ve been to Malaysia and Thailand knows chicken rice and the flavors were on for us. I felt conflicted when I ordered roasted instead of poached (more traditional) but the roasted chicken was infused with some kind of kaffir marinade (yum). The chicken on the nasi lemak was fried nicely with a light airy quality. A lot of my favorite SEA flavors remixed! Pandan chiffon good too! Next time more kaya dessert and try a cocktail.

The most amazing burgers I have tried, the balance of the fluffy bread and the pickles inside with the smash patties were amazing. The fries on the other hand were a bit cold and not crunchy enough. The wait was also quiet long considering its a trendy place but all and all a good find. I would definitely come again on my next travel.

A hole in the wall pick up style burger with simple menu. So I can’t really say much about the atmosphere. Burger was good, solid, patty was the crispiest i’ve vever had but London has soo many amazing burger scene that this came down to okay. The nuggets tho, that’s my favorite! perfectly salted, elevated style of the mcnuggets. Overall good, perfect if you want to get burger for a picnic.

This is as good as a smash burger can get!!! We got a regular and veggie burger (seriously best one we’ve ever had) We are from Texas and were impressed with the flavor of the patty, the perfectly smashed/crispy edges, the bread was fluffy, and the sauce was unique for a nice change. The worker/possibly owner that served us was super friendly. Fries were perfectly crispy as well!! To top it all off, they made it so quick! Recommend 100% if you are craving some comfort food in Paris!

The hamburger and especially the fries were amazing. They have their own special beer. The only problem is there's no place to sit. You can sit on the wall in front of them and eat :) The staff is friendly.

Visited in September, Amazing classic burger and amazing fries, I can’t get over them! The place is only take away and no dinning place. I loved that the order came out very quickly and they are very professional, they know how to make a good burger

Yummy smashed burgers in Paris. We had the cheeseburgers which were really simple, crispy edges, delicious sauces. We also had some chips and nuggets which my kids enjoyed. 🍔🤍🍟

This was one of the best vege burger I have ever tried in Europe. We had burger and each of us half of fries and we were full. Sauce was also very good. There is no place to sit but there is a nice square nearby. You should really check it out. You can find better maybe only in Belzepub in Prague

Charming wine bar with a great selection and tasty small plates. We really enjoyed both the wines and the food. It’s probably not the place for a full dinner, but it’s perfect for a casual stop or a pre-dinner bite.

We sat here for an early dinner. Their tapas are excellent. Their cocktails are spot on. Great place to people watch.

Cocktails and wine on the street with some lovely people. What more can you ask for. Very relaxed atmosphere and well made drinks. Prices are what you would expect for this area of Paris.

Bit long but food was very creative and tasty. Small portions to order multiple and share. Great cocktails

I loved this restaurant/bar when I was visiting Paris. Very happy someone recommended it to me. The drinks were phenomenal (I got the Gimlet and the South Side Fizz). And the gazpacho was excellent. I'm still dreaming of it. If I lived in Paris, I would absolutely frequent this place. The staff were also lovely. So friendly, which I appreciated as an intimidated solo American traveler trying not to stand out in Paris.

Great place for natural wine and food. The veal tartar was super tasty and 18 month cheeese amazing. Worth the stop for wine and food sharing. Good ambience to sit in the street.

Had a marvellous time both at the bar and also when dining. The atmosphere was fantastic, the staff were very attentive and the music was great. Very reasonably priced and I would recommend to everyone

It serves some French cuisine. The food is delicious, but moderately flavorful. The snails and sauce are especially delicious. It's a bit of a value-for-money restaurant. There's usually a line, but it moves very quickly. It takes 15-20 minutes to get there. However, the glasses, forks, and water jugs they bring are usually dirty. There are issues with cleanliness. I hope the food is made in a sanitary environment. I've been there 4-5 times, but it's always been dirty. The waiters are a bit arrogant. When I point out a dirty glass, they look at me as if to ask what I can do, force me to bring a new one, or even make me throw it on the table and leave. But when the bill is finally brought, they expect a tip. I had to go out of necessity, but I wouldn't recommend it until the cleaning regulations improve.

Very nice French atmosphere. You can feel the good old days as soon as you walk into the place. We love the food. You can really taste the pork in pork terrines. The chicken tastes like the ones i had in grandma’s place many years ago. The portions are smaller, but perfect for us…

Came here for the first time in 20 years. The waiter was extremely nice and helpful. I came for a quick bite around 16:30h (some wine and fries). French hospitality means you get more than enough wine, and water and bread without asking. Afterwards I asked for a recommendation for a digestif. The place is beautiful and all the staff were very friendly. The bill was so low, I had to tip extra. Will come back!

🪳 There was a cockroach in the bread (read till finish) 🪳 Waited in line for around 45 minutes. Service was great, food was actually really good. We tried the roasted duck, not bad, just kinda bland if you compare it to Bebek Madura. The steak was so good though. And the floating island was Worth to try BUT after we left, swear to God, we saw a cockroach casually walking on the leftover bread on the transfer table upstairs. And that table is literally where they put food that’s ready to be served AND the plates that customers already finished. So, yeah. Maybe that’s the source of the problem. Honestly I’m just glad we saw it after eating, because the food was good and I did enjoy it. So it’s like “hmm okay that was nasty but damn the food was nice so, i guess okay??” Not trying to destroy their rating, just giving an honest review. I really hope they fix the hygiene situation because that cockroach was way too comfortable.

Definitely worth the wait! The food was delicious and the atmosphere had hopping. Loved to watch how this restaurant handled the volume of people in a very efficient manner without compromising food quality or taste.

The queue was extremely long, so we assumed the food must be good. After waiting for about an hour, we were finally seated, but had to share a table with two other people. We even had to share the complimentary baguette with them, which felt quite odd. We came specifically for the famous beef bourguignon, only to find out it was removed from the menu. So we ordered the butcher’s cut with fries instead. Unfortunately, the steak was overcooked and extremely tough—easily the hardest steak I have ever had in my life, almost like chewing rubber. Overall, it was definitely not worth the long wait, and I honestly don’t understand why the rating is so high.

This was, without a doubt, the worst meal we had during our two-week Europe trip. Our experience started poorly when we were seated at a table with a disruptive pole in the middle. ​The service was appalling. Our server was extremely rude and unprofessional. He ignored us, showed no interest while taking our order, and dismissed our questions. To make matters worse, he tried to rush us out, starting to clean the table while we were still eating, after only 30 minutes, claiming there was a long line. His behavior completely ruined our dining experience. ​The food was equally disappointing. The spaghetti was lukewarm and tasteless. The escargot was made with tiny, dry, and clearly not fresh snails. The toast served with the pâté was burnt, and the avocado with shrimp dish was inedible, featuring an unripe, rock-hard avocado that couldn't even be cut with a knife. ​I don't care how cheap this restaurant is; I would not dine here again even if I were paid to. It's a shame they are serving food of this quality. I dined here years ago and had a pleasant experience, which is why I returned, but I will never go back. Especially in a city like Paris, which offers so many truly wonderful dining options.

Super cool place in an old train station with fantastic views, amazing food and good drinks. Prices are a bit high but it’s really worth it for the experience. Food wise, a good dozen choices including vegetarian and vegan options. Some live music inside and more chill atmosphere outside. Would really recommend the place to people looking at different experience in Paris!

An atmosphere with a lot of vibe..Everything you can eat and drink can be found here. There also good toilet facilities. I recommend

I love this place ♥️ it’s suitable any time, any day, whether you were on a date, with a group of friends, with a group of colleagues or with your family and kids 🙌🏻 They have a lot of beer and wine options, they also have cider (my favourite 🤭) and if you feel like eating, you can choose among pizzas/ Thai / Greek / burgers… There is an outdoor and indoor space, both large and with numerous tables and chairs. The indoor space is divided into different moods, the decor and sectioning is super cool!! (There is a part of a plane inside - not gonna spoil more you’ll have to see it for yourselves 😂) The staff is friendly and quick to respond even when it gets busy during weekends or rush hours. A go-to place to chill, have a good time and attend to the events organised there 😍

What a great space! Various food outlets, bars, video games, a giant plane (read multiple, yes really) and more. I visited whilst in the city with a friend and we liked that there was something for everyone in this unique food hall. We particularly liked Coin Op with their bao buns and poke bowls. Only downside in the French heatwave was no air con, but you can't tick all the boxes!

What and excellent place in the 12th ! Food is good, service is efficient and the beer and wine selection is neat as well. And you can take pictures there thanks to the nice cabine photos. Highly recommended !

Great place to go for a drink with friends with many options for food, music stores, board and videogames etc. Live music events sometimes happen and it can be privitized.

Honestly don't know what all the fuss is about. I've been there maybe ten times over the years, but it's always been a bit lacking in atmosphere. Drinks are overpriced, coming in at 10e for a beer. Food is a bit flavourless - I had a Bao bun this week and it was pretty bland, lacking any sauce or spice. The staff are mostly nice, and they have a bunch of cultural, family friendly stuff on, but you've got to bring the vibe with you rather than go there to get it.

Might be overhyped but worth a visit. There was a queue but we were seated quickly. Once inside service was quick and the noodles were good (we had the pork and tomato) and our bowls were taken as soon as we were done eating. Would recommend if you're looking for a tasty and quick meal.

XO sauce liangpi- sauce was a little too sweet and too overwhelming on the noodles. Would be perfect dish if less was used in my opinion Xiao long bao - a little bland for my taste but still good Udon - delicious Biang biang with tomato and beef - delicious Service is good and vibe is fun and exciting. Would come back to try other items

Very delicious 😋. We ordered the thick noodles with beef which is what they are famous for. Also we have tried the chicken dumplings which was tasty as well. We will definitely try it again next time we are in Paris

We got the fried chicken, steamed chicken dumplings, biangbiang noodles with tomato and beef, and the mango rice dessert. Everything was outstanding!! 10/10!! We got there a bit before it opened for dinner and got a spot. It’s a must go 😋😋

3 days ago I went to the real restaurant (Chinese) and the food was very good. Today I decided to order the same as before but didn’t know that there’s another restaurant has the same name!!! Near location Which is this one it was empty only 2 tables were taken Same menu and same prices I ordered chicken sandwich for takeaway and rice with chicken servings in the restaurant Chicken was smelling bad and tasted poisoned Terrible taste! Couldn’t eat it. I asked to not take the sandwich but they refused and said we cook it like that but at the end they said it’s ok you can leave it and pay only for the rice chicken 14€ for poisoned chicken. And wasting time and money Please be careful the original Chinese restaurant is the best

I was really craving Asian food in Paris, and this place totally hit the spot. The quality of the dishes was high, and the service was excellent—super friendly and attentive. If you're looking for great Asian cuisine, I highly recommend checking this place out!

Biangbiang noodles are definitely the stars of the place, they have an interesting texture and a lot of sauce. The decoration looks very traditonal also. One minus would be the waiting time, it got very busy at lunch and the dishes arrived at different times which was a bit annoying for our group.

We were sited in the back room near the stairs to the restrooms. The place is really small and has too many tables that it makes it hard to walk or get in and out of your chair. Everything was in French and it was hard to understand. We waited like 20 minutes until the waiter came to us and help ya figure out the menu. The food was amazing, we had the chicken curry of the day and the steak with a special sauce and french fries. The creme brûlée was really good. All in all really good food, just would ask to be seated in a different area next time and have better phone service to translate the menu.

Great people watching. Fabulous onion soup. I’d pass on the steak frites… fries were good, but both of us got steaks that were not cooked as ordered. My husband loved the country pâté - said it was the best he’s ever had! Give the End of Summer mocktail a try - bright and refreshing, not too sweet. Espresso cake is like a tiramisu and super rich, seemed like it had a liqueur in it. Went back a second time!

i ordered a steak tartar and it is okay. the meat is fresh but there is not much in it . it’s €23 and the quantity is small. I am shock to see the comment from the owner and mentioning other country without knowing the country well and in a bad manner. i indeed looked at past review and photos and found out the quality and quality is a lot less on this dish than before. There must be a reason why they downsized the dish. I can comment on this with the restaurant country but i am not going to do that as that is cultural stereotyping.

Amazing spot for really good French food! They emphasize quality ingredients and home cooking. A bit on the pricier side but definitely worth it if you’re looking for a good meal and the vibe of sitting outside in the Marais. I recommend the lamb, it goes amazing with the mustard they give you. The duck confit was good as well but in my opinion the lamb was more flavourful. The wait times are usually long as it’s a popular restaurant so come at an off time!

Amazing Restaurant with a real authentic French experience! Great food and absolutely amazing service from our waiter Dimitri, the best waiter we ever had! We have been coming back three days in a row now because of the great service, food and wine at Les Philosophes!

Possibly the best french onion soup in Paris. Outstanding on every level. The floating island desert (île flottante) was a light taste sensation a perfect end to a meal. Service attentive and not in your face. Beautiful steak, tender and well presented. A must when in Paris!

My friend told me about this place and it was amazing. The French onion soup and duck confit were a dream and the service was incredible. Shout out to Dmitri for his kindness, wine recommendation, and attentive service. A truly wonderful experience.

Mangez et Cassez-Vous is a small, no-nonsense eatery in Paris that lives up to its cheeky name. It’s not a place for long, drawn-out meals—it’s designed for quick, tasty food served with efficiency. The atmosphere is casual and unpretentious, making it perfect if you’re in a rush, on your lunch break, or simply craving something satisfying without the frills. Strengths: Fast service: true to its concept, you get your food quickly and can be in and out in no time. Good value for money: portions are generous and prices are reasonable for the area. Simple, tasty menu: you know what you’re getting—no endless lists, just straightforward, flavorful food. Atmosphere: fun and unique branding makes it stand out from typical fast-food spots. Weaknesses: Limited seating: not ideal if you want to linger or eat in comfort. No frills: if you’re looking for variety or a fine-dining experience, this isn’t the place. Peak hours: can get busy, so expect a bit of a wait during lunch rush. My opinion: Mangez et Cassez-Vous is exactly what it promises: eat, enjoy, and move on. It’s a clever concept with good food at fair prices, perfect for a quick and satisfying stop.

Really good burger especially for the price. As a tourist, it seems a bit tricky to order when they are busy - don't be overwhelmed. Just walk in straight to the counter, pay and wait for your name to be called. Sounds easy, but there isn't much space to wait for your order so it sometimes appears as there is a long line.

Such a simple yet convincing concept. Inexpensive and tasty burgers and fries and you get your order quite fast. Cheaper prices than everywhere around in the heart of Paris.

Burgers taste really good, prices are really good. Great variety, you can grab a meal for less than 10 euros which is honestly amazing. Definitely worth a visit, would recommend and would definitely visit again

Trust on this: it slaps. A whole menu for 7 euro and it took 4min to get the food, while it was decentcrowded. On that note, don’t go during busy hours cuz it will be crowded and hard to find a place to sit. Minus is the service coulda been a little better and menu in english was very outdated.

I tried it very first time, all menu for the 7 euro is a great deal, highly recommended! went there around 5 pm

We arrived right at opening and the place filled up quickly. Our food came promptly. We first tried the crème brûlée and even compared to others we had in Paris, this one was surprisingly the best. Perfectly creamy, not too runny and not too firm, with a nicely crisp sugar layer. For the price, it was excellent! The burgers were also very tasty, though the buns were a bit dry. Overall, a great visit!

The crepes were great quality and delicious, we also tried their pear cider which was amazing and we really enjoyed it with our meal. The sweet crepes were also good but I personally prefer the savoury ones as they were more unique but overall great experiences and great food

Delicious crepes! No matter classic flavours or special ones, all are very tasty. Cider is a great match as always. Will come back for sure.

The crepes here are delicious! We had the dark chocolate crepe and the buckwheat with butter crepe. Both were very tasty! The space is set up nicely with both indoor and outdoor seating. The staff is very friendly and made nice recommendations! Highly recommend this spot!

Didn’t really like the mushroom galette since there is higher water content in mushrooms, the crepe is not as crispy (a little bit soggy). Fig jam camembert & and brown sugar butter is a lot better but not the best crepe I had in Paris. Overall is still pretty decent for crepe and the atmosphere was cozy.

Great vibe with beautiful industrial style decor. They have a nice lunch set with gallette, crepe and apple juice/cider. That was a good deal. I've had better galette elsewhere and service a bit on the slower side, but still tasty and would come back

Gorgeous food in this small but buzzing place. The savoury galette was cheesy and so fresh, while the crepe had the most gorgeous apple puree with caramel. Paired with a beautiful Breton cider, it was the perfect lunch on a chilly day.

Returning here after a long hiatus - OMG it’s just as good if not better than it was before and I cannot wait to come back again. We had the reblochon special and we are massive alps fans so that was perfect. Also we had their version of crepe Suzette which took me back to my childhood and was a little fanfare which was perfect for our birthday celebration ❤️

We didn’t have to wait long for a table, even though we arrived past 1pm. We noticed there were a lot of locals having their lunch there, so we figured it had to be good! We started with having some snails and duck as appetisers. After that we had the main courses (tripe, pasta and Roquefort and duck magret). Everything was very tasty at the very least and I felt like a French mademoiselle! The deserts were good, but I have to admit it wasn’t the best creme brûlée I have ever had, although it was good enough. Anyway, I’ll be back for sure!

Centrally located. Food was eatable but don't expect gourmet quality. The chips were greasy, the creamy sauce was unnecessary, the steaks were overcooked, and the squid was tasteless. As the location is nearby tourists area so price is not cheap either. The service was slow, as we don't speak French, the servicing staff probably trying to avoid speaking to us.

Cozy restaurant in Sain German area. It was near our hotel. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. We had mixed cuts of cheese and tuna. Served with freshly baked baguettes. The main dish I had was a veal casserole with potatoes and onion wedges smothered with cheese then baked on a clay dish. Was so delicious and very filling. My wife had chicken dish was very delicious. Their potions were very large for being in Paris. They were reasonably priced for the fact their dishes were perfectly seasoned with great quality ingredients. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is visiting Paris.

We loved our dinner. We ordered the basque chicken and the duck confit. Both were super tasty and generous portions and great prices.

Fast and casual basque food. Great special with confit de canard, drink, and chocolate mousse for 19 euros

The food was good. But waiter was trying to speak in strange English. We were speaking in French, but he was forcing English. And English was so bad. As far as a person who speaks 5 languages, it was bizarre. Pls don’t try to show off your English just serve, thank you! Also he’s being little bit racist, he was speaking other whites in French even though they couldn’t speak French.

Very good food and nice service. Price also very affordable.

The service was amazing, the staff was highly knowledgeable and more than willing to provide excellent wine recommendations. This is a traditional French style diner. The escargot are must have dish! All of the plates were rich and delicious.

what a great meal. felt like a home cooked meal. wonderful friendly staff and every plate was one of a kind

We stayed 3 weeks in Paris, just about a 5 minute walk from this restaurant…and ate dinner there FIVE times!!! All of the restaurant staff are welcoming and accommodating, but we have to give special recognition to Morgon who is one of our favorite servers in all of France. This is a Les Routers restaurant…dedicated to providing classic French dishes, well prepared, and at a fair price. They do that, perfectly, every day…simple as that. Now, if you know what’s best for you…you’ll order the farsi (stuffed cabbage)…and have a Babà au Rhum for dessert. In addition to their standard menu, they always have some daily specials that never disappoint. This place is a neighborhood gem, and you are going to be very happy that you discovered it…and you will come back…or, unfortunately, wish that you had. As for us, we’re happy because we got to eat there FIVE times. Sure wish we were still just around the corner… We miss that classic French cuisine…and the lovely Morgon. As for you…GO! ENJOY!

I feel like the people sitting next to us were served before we were, despite being seated after. It's a small place with a nice vibe and decent food, but I'm not sure if I'd go back

We had a delicious lunch. Service was good although I wished the Lunch Formule was mentioned to us as thats what we would've chosen. Hence I took 1 star off from service. The restaurant got busy a few mins after we arrived and from the looks and sound of conversations, they are locals. I'm pretty happy that I ate where the locals eat.

We had a wonderful family dinner, 4 adults. Excellent wine, exquisite food and very friendly staff. Thank you for making this evening special for us.

A little gem and genuinely recommend it. Great choice of dishes, very well executed, generous and in perfect harmony with 'cuisine de bistrot'. The last and not the least, you will be greeted and looked after by an energetic and very professional team. Bravo !

Delicious hot fresh foccacia sandwiches. I love all the options they have; so this will suit anyone. You can see the bread being baked fresh. And then again after they put in the toppings. I went with the Stonker; which is fresh mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, arugula and olive oil. I made them add balsamic as well which made it even better. €9 is a steal for such a big sandwich. Order first and then lots of place to sit and eat upstairs. Must visit in Paris.

Perfect healthy lunch stop for delicious, fresh food and beautiful music. Big fan of this concept and sure to come back. My “everything but” salad with roasted vegetables hit the spot perfectly and tuned me up for my afternoon - all for €12, couldn’t ask for more. Bravo

High quality sandwiches quickly prepared. Staff was friendly and accommodating for our large order of 13 sandwiches!

After indulging in the delicious richness of french cooking for the past week both of us were craving something light and healthy. We ordered the "everything but" salad and the "flipper" sandwich and they were exactly what we were looking. Ingredients were fresh and delicious. Cost 20 Euros for the two dishes. Staff was friendly, service was quick. 5/5

This was a gem of a find. What I recommend is the delicious meal set with a sandwich, drink, and dessert. Pricing was a good value for the set =15 euros each (with an upgrade of cider as a drink-which was only 1.5 euro upgrade) The upstairs dining area is a nice, cool retreat from the bustling streets of Paris. Water is offered from the tap, with a clean restroom for patrons. Compared to overfilled cafes steps away, this felt more relaxed.

One of my favourite restaurants in Paris, every time I come, I have to visit it. They have great menu offers, with very good quality. I highly recommend the Med-Wedd, and getting take away to eat by the Seine.

Best restaurant if you follow intermittent fasting you can have your balanced salad of the day and on with your day in Paris. Very healthy choice of salads and they offer the best apple crumble and tiramisu. All this at a very good price. Amazing restaurant if you want to stay at a low budget. Amazing!!! Will definitely use again.

It was very good, and good value. Great service.

The food was delicious and the service was so good,everything was good except the bathroom was a little bit stinky I couldn't use it 😅 😅

This place is really nice, and the food is okay. It's not on the top of my list of recommendations, however. The Œuf cocotte is an interesting rendition with truffle, but it's not really cocotte. Its like poché/poached. The truffle pasta I had was slightly under seasoned but at least it was correctly priced. All the staff were friendly, attentive, and the place is well situated. The décor is cultural and welcoming.
