Some highlights: The amuse bouche course was incredible end-to-end, but what really stood out for me was a blue masa shell holding mussel, sauce, and microgreens/herbs/flowers. The mix of the different herbs, the savory salinity of the mussel, and the sauces was wonderfully complex, yet also harmonious. The poached sea trout with pumpkin and horseradish ice cream was very satisfying. The mix of poached trout and horseradish cream was very familiar, yet the twist of making the horseradish a wholly different temperature and texture was really surprising and innovative. The monkfish in adobo was another extraordinary dish. I have only had monkfish liver before, but the way they were able to perfectly cook the monkfish gave it a texture and flavor reminiscent of lobster. With the spice of the adobo, it was a really well balanced dish. Additionally, all of the wines that we tried were also notable and delicious. Frenchie has definitely earned its Michelin star, and I wouldn't be surprised if it has another by the next time I come back.

Food--quite good. Service--rather odd…read more My husband had made a reservation at Le Fumoir well in advance of our visit to Paris. He chose it because of the reviews and also the fact that the seating area layout seemed to provide more space between tables than is sometimes the case. When we entered, a server directed us to the host station by the bar. My husband had printed out his email with the address & the reservation, and he had made some notes on it about things to consider on the menu. We were seated at a nice window table A woman did come right away to ask about sparkling or still water. Wines are by the glass--no bottles were listed that we saw. The server just stood over us for several minutes while we were looking at the menu, which was a little uncomfortable. So my husband explained we would need a few minutes. She seemed offended. Then the male host came over and insisted on seeing the paper my husband had with the email. He took it out of my husband's hand and started trying to read my husband's notes. I asked if there was a problem with the reservation--had they found it? The man said something about wanting to know if it was prepaid (do they do gift certificates in Paris? We had no idea what he meant). I said no, it was not, so he left again. The menu is prix fixe. A different server came to take our order. She was more upbeat and jovial. The amuse bouche was a pickled herring. I ordered the pumpkin veloute soup, which was yummy. Then I had the vegetarian plate, which was fine but not memorable: squash, mushrooms, and an egg on top. My husband ordered the sausage plate. At the end, I requested the check (l'addition"). The server asked twice if we wanted to add a tip to put on the card. I have not had that happen before in Paris, where the tipping conventions are different, and a 15% service charge is included in the prices by law. I asked if it was not included ("compris") and she said no, it was not. I did leave a cash tip. But all in all, some of those awkward moments with the staff detracted from the experience.

This restaurant is absolutely packed and I don't know what % are Walk ins but my hubby booked the restaurant a month in advance. The food is average and the service lacking. Our dinner lasted almost 3hours and that's not because we were slow but rather, the wait staff was missing. One party beside us left after about more than 45 mins of the waiter not showing up to get their orders. The restaurant itself was unique though. Where we sat looked like a library before with books all over the room. It could be that we came at a bad time, nonetheless, there's other restaurants in Paris to try before I come back to Le Fumoir.

Intimate restaurant with blue banquettes & clean lines; we chuckled at the banana leaf design above the paneled walls that matched Blanche's bedroom wallpaper in "The Golden Girls." I didn't try my dining companion's Scotch Quail Eggs (18 € for three eggs, halved) but I did taste their Fish & Chips (26 €) which was pleasantly mild & came with a tangy tartare sauce. My Onion & Stilton Tart (24 €) was incredibly savory & delicious. Texturally interesting with the creamy bleu cheese & cooked-down onions to offset the flakey tart & frisée salad atop. Perfect restaurant for when you want to deviate from classic Parisian fare but still want a sophisticated meal. Charming, lovely server, as well.

Fully booked at precisely 10h00 three-weeks in advance, just as it has been for more than a decade, arrival at 80 Rue de Charonne finds the green-fronted bistro largely indistinguishable from those surrounding while an interior of concrete and wood is neither exciting nor particularly comfortable. At one point part of the "Bistronomy" movement, but now perhaps best considered a Micro-seasonal experience right down to its beverages, guests are invited to begin with Aperitifs well-suited to deeply flavored Onion Broth and signature Gougeres served piping hot with bold spicing. Served at a leisurely pace by educated servers, though not the sort prone to over-explaining, proper courses begin with puffy Bread alongside housemade Labneh and Milk-fed Lamb Tartare before progressing to a green Salad with Egg Yolk dressed in White Wine, Olive Oil, and Garlic. Next taking advantage of local winter Truffles, smartly sandwiched between caramelized Endive with Pears and hints of Wine, Bread is offered to sop up all the Sauce and replenished to do the same with Monkfish in complex Buillabaisse. Not a place where one is prone to go hungry, all portions substantial including a Potato Salad offered with the Fish, Dessert on this day saw classic Crème caramel spun earthy with Mushrooms and another generous shaving of Tuber melanosporum that played well the nearly-burnt Sugar.

Technically perfect cooking, a focused yet deep wine list & really warm, friendly service. Reservation is hard to come by but if you are willing to wake up at Paris time 10am with a 21 days in advance booking, you should be able to score a resy. Although for us in the US, 10am Paris time is middle of the night so could be challenging. Ambience is French countryside rustic - Didn't have to dress up, didn't have to wait for choreographed service or any of the nonsense that the low reviews seem to crave. Just a very good restaurant. Some of the pairings were super interesting and really transformed the dish. However, on the day of our service, some dishes (such as the grilled endive) was a bit of a let down. There was a wine that is intentionally oxidated, very daring pairing but I was not a fan. Would like to come back and give it one more try!

It was soon clear why: the place filled up quickly and was bustling with a mix of locals, tourists, and expats. The food was a little mixed: I got the chicken and fresh spaghetti and it was sublime. The chicken was flavorful and juicy, and the skin perfectly crisp. The spaghetti was very fresh, well seasoned, and had these delicious chanterelles atop it. We also got a beet salad that was quite good: the beets were of high quality, tender (but not mushy), and there was a wonderful contrast in texture with popped quinoa that was mixed in a tasty beet puree. The cheese plate also had a Robuchon (maybe misspelled) that was deliciously creamy and unlike anything I've had before.

For our entrees we had white beans, tartare tuna and tomato salad (you know that entrees' are appetizers in France). For our main dinners (plats) we had the lobster anise ravioli and monk fish, both excellent. The ravioli were large and the monk fish was a thick piece with great texture.

The reduced juice also added some good flavor. My only small thing to note was that it was slightly on the tough side at certain point. The potatoes on the side were delicious, and about as good as potatoes could be- creamy with a nice flavor. I think the price was a little bit high for the portion size, but not too bad. The restaurant itself is medium sized with a very pleasant and bright environment. There is simple yet elegant decor and the ambiance could be suitable for both a casual and more formal setting. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The service speed is fast. Overall, I would highly recommend Restaurant Georgette for honestly most types of occasions if you are looking for some good French cuisine.

The only issue we encountered was when we were presented the check at the end of the night.
