French onion soup
Irina M.

Went to this restaurant while in Paris for a quick lunch before going sight seeing. The restaurant is nice located on the corner with outside sitting which made it a perfect lunch spot. The waiter was nice and accommodating. The food was kind of disappointing: I got the onion soup which had no onion flavor, no salt no paper, and a salat with brea cheese that also tasted so bland.

Escargot, charcuterie board, French onion soup, cosmopolitan and a mojito!

Both times I was in Paris, I made a trip here. The first time, me and my boyfriend were strolling through le marais when we noticed this place. It was small, chic and inviting. We sat down to eat outside despite the cold, because the heat lamps outside made it plenty warm! The music was cool too - lots of 60s and 70s oldies that I loved. The service was awesome, and I had the same waiter when I went back months later with my mom. The charcuterie board was delicious and the bread was great and abundant, they just kept it coming. They also had great happy hour specials for drinks! Definitely a great place to grab a bite, a drink or a cappuccino.

I loved the camembert salad here. It was easily the best sit down meal I had in Paris. Delicious potatoes and great bread basket. My boyfriend got the brunch deal which was a lot of good food as well.

Brunch at Au Coeur du Marais

Had brunch at au coeur du marais and wasn't very impressed. We had a lemon crepe which was very sour, and bread with a selection of butter/jams. Coffee was good. One member of our party went for the confit de canard, and that was very disappointing. The flavor was just off. So, the food wasn't anything special, but the location and the place itself is very pleasant.

However, the portions were more than expected considering it was gourmet. We couldn't finish our entrees. Good spot for French brunch as it is a top fine-food grocer and deli. Sit outside on the sidewalk. There is an awning/umbrella to block out the sun which was great on a hot day. Note founded in 1894!

Oh my goodness, what a find! We stopped here for no better reason than our apartment was right…read morearound the corner and we were in the mood for a nice French lunch. Such good luck! I started with the free-range eggs with mayo, and my wife started with the leeks with vinaigrette. The eggs were delicious, but the leeks may have been the best preparation I've ever had in my life. For our main courses, she had the egg muffin, and I had the sausage and mash. Our meal was superb. Whoever is in the kitchen has clearly learned the art of French cuisine well. Service was fantastic, the people-watching (we ate al fresco) was fantastic, and I simply couldn't think of a way to make this a better meal.

How was flying out Charles de Gaulle Airport the next day and I just arrived from Frankfurt Germany…read moreby train when I looked up a French restaurant near the Gard du Nords train station and found BB. Luca was my server and he was very welcoming in hospitable to this weary traveler. I sat on the patio towards the end of the row so I could take in the atmosphere and people watch a bit. Luca Recommended a meal with a mashed potatoes and sausage with French bread and salad and it sounded tasty so I gave it a go! All the flavors went well together; mashed potatoes were well seasoned the sausage had a good flavor, and the salad with the vinaigrette added a crunch in an extra flavor as well. I drank a French hard cider while I gobbled up my meal, which also was new for me and tasted great after I was done my meal. Luke brought me a shot with rum and some other ingredients, including lemon that definitely hit the spot after a good meal.I recommend Brasserie Belanger for anyone near GDN Train Station that enjoys great food and patio dining. Cheers!

Found the Bistro on Yelp and made reservations for 8:30pm for dinner with my son while we were in…read moreParis on our way to Germany. Just finished a long bike ride to the Eiffel Tower and worked up an appetite. Decided to go straight to the main course. They are known for Au Gratins. My son is not a cheese fan so he opted for the norvigene (smoked salmon in dill lemon and EVOO. I decided to stick with the house specialty; Landais Au Gratin (cream potatoes, duck breast and emmental cheese). The 2 German girls beside me ordered a cider with both their meals so I followed their lead. When in Paris...... Considering the temperature, I almost second-guess myself and ordered something other than their house specialty of au gratin potatoes. In the end, I was very glad I overruled that thought. Brody enjoyed his meal. He just appeared to still be hungry when it was done and a 16 year-old boy that normally has a high caloric intake, I can understand why he wanted a second meal after eating his first! The restaurant in the patio were quite crowded even though we had reservations. They still sat us within five minutes of arrival. Not that five minutes is a long time to wait, but it was still worth the wait as good as the food tasted. We both enjoyed our meals.

THE FOOD ------------------…read more= Fermier - Cheese gratin with chicken was good. Didn't blow me away, but was solid with the creaminess of the sliced potatoes and emmental cheese combined together with mixed vegetables. The cheese was very strong though, so anything else was unfortunately pretty much overpowered by it. Arrived with bread, but it DEFINITELY could use other carb options to sop it all up (e.g., rice???)! = Landais - Cheese gratin with duck. Same comment as the above, except the Landais had egg and goat cheese also mixed in with almost the same ingredients as the Fermier. THE SERVICE ----------------------- + The lone waitress, who also worked the role as greeter, cashier and bartender was friendly. + Food arrived within 10 minutes of ordering. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------------ = Small, tight restaurant. = Not many tables inside - 6 in total. + Located a few blocks away from the more touristy restaurants, towards the East, on a much quieter street. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Nada.

We had a fantastic time here! The restaurant is tucked away on a quiet street in the busy St…read more Germain neighborhood. Our reservation was at 7p when the restaurant opens and there were already several parties waiting to get in which is usually a good sign. We had the beef bourguignon, roasted chicken, and french onion soup with a couple glasses of red wine. All of the food was delicious and we went through a second basket of bread soaking up all the sauces from the dishes. Plenty for two people in my opinion especially if you want to leave room for dessert. On the pricier side but we thought it was reasonable for a nice dinner out. Be prepared for tight quarters. To get in and out of your seat the waiter needs to pull the table out. Not an issue but just be aware you'll be sitting close enough to other tables to hear their conversations

We did not have a good visit to Chez Fernand. From start to finish, our waiter was terribly…read moreunpleasant and incredibly rude to us, for no reason. We have gone into every place being polite and kind and were met with such hostility. He got even more snippy and rude when we declined to have wine or dessert, when we tried to ask any questions about the menu, even walking away from us while we were in the middle of speaking or asking a question. When he brought us food or drinks he nearly dropped it on the table and quickly sped off. Some other servers seemed nice to other guests, so maybe we got one on a bad day but still we felt really upset and uncomfortable with how we were treated, there is no reason for anyone in the service industry to be so rude especially when we were being so polite. You also get blocked into your seat, and are very close to other guests which is fine but you have to call the waiter to pull your table back out to get up or to go to your seat- to which they begrudgingly do so. The beef bourguignon was tasty, but we did not like how both my and my friend's order were brought in the same pot. This resulted in us having maybe 3 tiny potatoes each and not near as much meat as we hoped for. We were expecting to each have our own dish. This was certainly not worth the 36€ per person price point (nearly $80 USD for the one pot of food), and we left the restaurant still hungry and extremely upset and disappointed by the service. Overall I would not return or recommend.
