    French 75s and espresso martini
    Hetal P.

    Passed this restaurant while shopping in the area. Saw they had a happy hour through the evening and decided to come back to spend some time until dinner. Really enjoyed out cocktails! The violet Collins was my favorite. Service was slightly slow at first but it was fine.

    Poulet roti avec pommes

    Solid, neighborhood place with good food and friendly service. The interior is classic - tiled floors, a standing-only bar, too-tiny tables and a nice terrace for good weather days. Sadly, it was pissing rain so we sat indoors for dinner. Note that previous reviews mention a good value formule - that is GONE. Prices are pretty reasonable but definitely don't go in expecting a formule at dinner. I started with their house made pate (country style) and it was pretty lackluster - overall a lack of seasoning and too coarse of a grind on the blend. Meh - skip this. My friend had a nice salad which was a far better option, For mains, I went with a nightly special of roasted chicken and gratin potatoes. Yum, yum, yum! Well roasted chicken with nice crisp skin, a flavorful and well seasoned pan sauce and my very favorite kind of creamy potatoes. My friend stuck with an entrecôte which was served with a smashing an poivre sauce. Really, really good! We ate far too much to consider dessert but we did drink a bunch of wine. Overall, the bill was quite reasonable. Our server was honestly the nicest guy - he gave us a list of his favorite local places which was really kind. If you want a solid "classic French bistro" meal, Au Bouquet will do you right.

    Lunch special first course, cold pea soup and toasted bread with whipped goats milk cheese.

    Nice lunch specials that change daily, look for the little black board with them hand written for the day. It will come with your choice of two things, the main course and desert or the main course and appetizer. And usually they are able to tell you in English what they are. They also have another larger menu of items sure to please anyone, and that also will be in English if you ask. You can sit outside facing the busy street or inside, I prefer sitting inside because its pretty noisy and lots of traffic on that stretch of road. A good value in the Saint-Paul area, with consistently good food.

    Bountiful cheese and sausage plate
    Mikey H.

    We found ourselves wandering around after visiting the Centre Pompidou. We passed a number of cafes, but some just didn't call to me until we passed here. It was probably the warm smile and "Bonjour" from the woman who would be serving us. We ordered a bottle of wine and a cheese and sausage plate. We didn't want to spoil our dinner...LOL! Great selection of cheeses and meats and large enough for two more people. We sat inside, but still managed to see people walking on the street through these large open windows. It was a pleasant afternoon for wine, cheese, and conversation. We also had cappuccinos which were brewed perfectly. This is a great place to spend some leisurely time people watching. I will definitely be back.

    Very good prices for a Paris cafe. Had breakfast here with two others and everything tasted great. I have a cafe creme (which is coffee with some milk added), shared a nutella crepe, and a omelette with ham and cheese. They gave some little pieces of bread to accompany our dishes. Everything tasted fresh. Service is just okay, but didn't expect much more. Sidewalk seating is preferred and good for people watching. I was satisfied and left happy and full.

    Beef stew

    The staff spoke English, friendly and engaging. Looks like they have a crowd of regulars, drinking and singing along. Outdoor and indoor seating available. I had the French onion and beef stew. French onion, too much cheese was added to the top. Beef stew was good but potatoes were clearly prepared differently.

    Although I have lived in this neighborhood for over 5 years and walked by many many times I had never stopped in for a meal. Huge mistake! The food is amazing. I ordered thé Cesar salad. It is a complete meal on one plate. My salad arrived promptly with a perfectly crispy chicken breast atop a bed well dressed romaine with ample amounts of cherry tomatoes, lardons, and shaved Parmesan cheese. It also comes with a hard boiled egg garnish and if course a basket of sliced baguette. The service is very good as well. This is my new go to spot in the neighborhood from now on

    Fantastic French Onion Soup!
    Shay P.

    The service we was excellent! The steak and frites were just ok. The steak needed more flavor/salt and pepper. Unless a steak is absolutely amazing it needs a lot of salt and pepper. Fish had quite a few bones in it. We did love the French onion soup and the coffee drinks.

    Grilled eggplant with smoked duck, goat cheese and tomatoes.
    Sergio V.

    It is a cafe i return to every time I visit Paris. The food is always good and the staff is always attentive and helpful. One of my favorite dishes is the grilled eggplant with smoked duck and goat cheese, an amazing combination of flavors and a wonderful presentation. I prefer places where I can ask for a recommendation for food and wine, the waiters really care and take pride. Also great value for price.

    The "Italian" steak tartare and the creamy ravioli
    Pouya Y.

    This place has quickly become my go to restaurant in my neighborhood. It is not only close but you can count on having a good piece of meat at a great price. The revolving specials are usually good but even when nothing sounded appetizing, the regular menu has consistently good dishes. We have been here around 5 times for dinner so far and have yet to have a bad experience.

    Bella T.

    Phenomenal food. I had the goat cheese salad. My husband had ravioli which was decadent, melt in your mouth good. My son had a chicken burger. Very cute, authentic decor.

    The Lamb.
    Howdy A.

    Spent a week in Paris and ate out several times each day. This restaurant is by far my favorite place to eat in the city. The service is superb (especially the tall guy with the tattoos), and the food is to die for. I recommend the Lamb or ravioli (vegetarian dish) for dinner and the Baba au Rhum for desert. When in Paris, eat here. It does not disappoint.

    Skirt Steak with pepper sauce
    Andrew F.

    With a convenient and pleasant location and friendly and accommodating staff, this restaurant was an excellent find. The wall tiles are reminiscent of the Metro and there is a constant clinking of glasses at the bar, creating a cozy and lively ambience. And of course, the food. The French Onion Soup, below a helpful serving of warm and savory cheese, is full of flavor. The bread has soaked up much soup but is still intact and dripping with flavor. Worst part of the dish was diving in too fast and almost burning my tongue on a piece of melt-in-your-mouth onion. Delicious! The Skirt Steak with Pepper Sauce was amazingly tender and absolutely juicy and delicious without the sauce. The pepper sauce was less amazing but also worthy of mention. But the best part was how the pepper sauce brought out even more flavor from the meat. A wonderful meal! Overall, highly recommended!

The richness of the flavor and the texture which is not reminiscent of the traditional roasted duck or foie gras, but rather a much more like a luxurious and indulgent version. We enjoyed our dinner on the outside of the restaurant after about a 20-30 minute wait. The bone marrow had the best flavor I've experienced for the dish. However, it is definitely overshadowed by the rich flavor of the foie gras. This experience was unforgettable, with our view of Parisian streets on a brisk, April night. We even came back on our last night, but didn't realize the hours on Google maps was for the deli. The restaurant closes earlier, before 9:00 PM. This meal got us thinking about Paris in a positive light, and we hope to be able to come back to eat the amazing dishes again!

They had a number of goods to choose from and I ended up buying a few things for souvenirs. As for the actual restaurant, they had a number of delicious sounding items on their menu. Our server was very attentive to us and helped us decide on our dinner orders. Similar to the other restaurants though. After our food was delivered, it was far in between when we were checked on again. And after dessert it took even longer for our server to bring the bill. Overall, the food was a letdown. I do not exaggerate when I say that the frog legs just tasted like slightly flavored water. My friend's ravioli had a fairly decent flavored sauce but the pasta was a bit chewy. My friend's duck breast was pretty tough; I had noticed the table next to us also ordered it and they seemed to have trouble finishing/cutting theirs as well. As for my steak with foie gras, well the steak was once again tough and the foie gras was weirdly stringy. It was soft for the most part but there were parts that were tough and stringy. Maybe that's a section that's generally separated in the preparation process and it was missed? In any case it was disappointing. What wasn't disappointing was dessert though; perfectly sweet and balanced.

On the other hand, it made me realize that my mother was a terrible cook. Bistro des Augustins is a small, cozy venue offering both indoor seating and terrace seating near Pont Neuf. It serves a small number of curated dishes, including a wonderfully traditional Bistro Gratin in a homey ceramic dish served piping hot with a brown crispy cheesy top, herbs, spices and chicken. You can also get it with salmon. My brothers and I only saw my mother use our gas range to light her cigarettes, sanitize needles to remove our splinters, and make s'mores during the summer months when she couldn't muster the energy to take us 'outside camping.' I mean, all she had to do was borrow a cookbook, which I'm sure were readily available from maybe a neighbor or in any local bookstore or the public library. How hard is that? I was the only kid who brought a can of tuna and his own monogrammed can opener to school every day. Every day. And mom convinced me that the tuna holster she got me for my birthday was cool and hip. I was a naive mercury-filled fool, although I did become a very fast runner in junior high school because of the tuna holster. The interior décor of Bistro des Augustins is informal and vintage bistro style - wooden tables, traditional chalkboard menus, and soft lighting - creating a relaxed and comfy ambiance. My eyes have been opened to what's possible. Thank you Bistro des Augustins for expanding my culinary horizons. Five stars.

    THE FOOD ------------------…read more= Fermier - Cheese gratin with chicken was good.

Same comment as the above, except the Landais had egg and goat cheese also mixed in with almost the same ingredients as the Fermier.

No real plans. Just walking. Cigarette smoke in the air, scooters passing narrow streets, old stone buildings glowing under soft afternoon light. Online, this place feels impossible to book. But show up 10-15 minutes before opening and suddenly you're seated like you knew the secret all along. Inside, the room hums. Tight tables. Warm walls. Loud enough to feel alive without becoming chaotic. Nobody rushing. Nobody flipping tables. Just the rhythm of Paris doing what it's always done. The menu is entirely in French which, honestly, makes the experience better. You stop ordering with certainty and start ordering with curiosity. My wife had the risotto d'épeautre aux St. Jacques. I ordered the Magret de Canard au Romarin. The duck was solid. A 3.5/5 kind of dish. Rich, savory, comforting after a long day walking through the city. But the risotto surprised me more. The scallops were delicate, the spelt added this earthy texture that made the dish feel substantial without ever becoming heavy. And then there's the mousse au chocolat. The famous one. Served from an oversized bowl with this almost excessive "all you can eat" energy that somehow still feels elegant instead of gimmicky. We only needed a few bites. Soft, luxurious, lightly bitter chocolate balanced perfectly against just enough sweetness. The kind of dessert that doesn't ask for attention. It quietly earns it.
