On our last night in a Paris while at sacre-Cour we stopped here for a quick diner. I had the beef Bourgandese, wife had a French onion soup and we had a side of fries. Wife really enjoyed the soup and the fries were cooked well. My beef Stew was pretty good also specially the meat which was tender yet nice and moist. Great location, good service and overall food was 3.75.

We did a quick trip to France and started one of our days at Au Rendez Vous des Amis. We came in between breakfast and lunch so they had select options but we were happy with the food we received - various baked goods French bread and croissant with some orange juice. I had a latte and my friend enjoyed her café black with the light meal. The server was friendly even despite our lack of communication with each other's language. One thing that threw me off was there were a few people outside of the bistro taking photos I'm not sure if there was something about the place we didn't know but I will say this was one of my favorite Yelp finds!

Getting off the Metro station at Abbesses and walking up through Montmartre to The Basilica of Sacré-Cœur de Montmartre is quite an arduous task. Well we walked several flights of stairs up the hill and by that point we were hungry and thirsty. Luckily for us, up on the corner we found Au Rendez-Vous des Amis. We were trying to avoid tourist traps and when you see local Parisians eating there that's usually a good sign. Well this café far exceeded our expectations. Both my children 11 and 13 are picky eaters which makes finding meals very difficult, especially in Paris. Well we able to get meals for everyone, three of us had the Burger which was incredible -everyone loved them including myself. I had a local beer with my burger which made it taste even better after the long walk up. My wife had the Chicken Caesar which she thoroughly enjoyed. If you have made the long way up to the halfway point between the Metro Abbesses station and The Basilica of The Sacred Heart looking for somewhere to take a break and enjoy a meal or drink this is the place. take it from a travel influencer/yelp elite :)

Eggs and baguette

A simple place to eat after a long walk, very touristy with a nice place to people watch. Service was fast and on the ball, they were happy to answer any questions on the rather large menu. Simple no frills meal that was so delicious and wasn't super expensive. Would recommend this place to anyone who likes to people watch and sit back and be lazy. :-)

This small town resto is wonderful. (No surprise, of course - it's Montmarte.) Diners take their lunches street side in the brisk weather. Inside, sunlight illuminates the rows upon rows of Polaroids covering their beams which give this spot a personal feel. (I'll be back to contribute a photo.) At the bar, a friendly bartender gave us Oranginas and a Coke, while telling us about the place. Live music on a regular basis? Yes, please. During our brief visit, a little white dog trotted in to greet us, then wished us a "bonne journee".

What a great place. We sat outside and had escargot. How wonderfully French. We also had very well prepared spaghetti. It must have been French style! Fun people watching as we ate then took a walk to the Cathedral. This place is a local favorite, not a touristy place and that adds to it the experience.

Escargot

We were in search of a restaurant near Sacré-cœur and came across this one! It was off the touristy path and very quiet (which we wanted). We came around lunchtime and seated ourselves. There were only two other people in the restaurant. The menu was a good size and decently priced. The waitress brought out a delicious baguette for us. We decided on the escargot for our appetizer. Our expectations weren't very high considering this was our first time trying it, and we didn't know what to expect. But it was delectable! The escargot was so buttery, tender, and seasoned perfectly. We ordered twelve, which was more than enough for two people. We could barely finish it, but pushed ourselves, because it is quite a delicacy! :) For our entrees, we both ordered salads. I don't remember the names, but mine had green beans, crispy potatoes, bacon, tomatoes, and toast with melted chèvre. It was one of the best, if not the BEST salad I have ever had. The potatoes were perfectly crispy. The green beans and bacon paired so nicely together. The toast with the goat cheese brie (chèvre) was amazing. Everything from the flavor to the "meltiness" was incredible. My mom's salad had prosciutto, foie gras, crispy potatoes, duck gizzards, and tomatoes. She said EVERYTHING in her salad was to die for! (and that's an amazing compliment coming from her;)) She also said the duck gizzards were the best she's ever had! Everything had incredible flavor and texture. We had no complaints whatsoever! It is quite rare for a restaurant experience to be completely perfect. The wait was short, food was perfect, service was great, and prices were reasonable! If you are ever exploring the Sacre-Couer, or even just in Paris, be sure to stop by. You most definitely will not be disappointed!

Great little low-key but sometimes crowded bar in Montmartre. The staff was fantastic, friendly, personable, and funny! This is a non-tourist bar in Montmartre, nicely tucked away from the rest of the tourists, a block or so away from the Sacre-Couer steps where the throng of people and expensive/touristy bars and cafes are. It is sometimes heavily populated by locals so if you want to go and enjoy a table on the sidewalk, get there early. We would get there from between 4-5 and never had a problem getting a sidewalk table. The inside is just as fun with an eclectic style. So either way, you win by going here. We rented an apartment for a week (AirBnB) around the corner from this bistro and after a day of walking/sightseeing-it became our go-to place for drinks and quiet, infectious, fun with the Parisiens, some of whom we became friends with, making Paris even more special, and the recent event so much more personal and sickeningly sad. We are heartbroken. There was the occasional American couple who would stop by, find a seat and expect the waiter to immediately attend to their needs, they would wrinkle their noses at the cigarette smoke -outside only- and become angered because they weren't allowed to have TWO tables so both of them could "face the street" These people are shit ambassadors and luckily for us and the locals very few and far between. Ok back to the review,.... The Croque Monsieurs, cheese plates, onion soup, pommes frites, and massive salads were only a few items we tried. Not one disappointed us. The staff -who were fantastic-bought us a couple rounds of drinks when we told them we were leaving for Belgium the next day after they closed. I can honestly say that this is one of those places -for those who travel- where you FEEL like you belong, that for a brief time you FEEL Parisien. J'aime Paris. Mon cœur est avec vous, Paris! Vive la France !

Ahh yes! We walked by this place twice after we decided to stop on our last night in Paris. So glad we did! Although we only had beer it was delicious France beer, it was non touristy and the music, people watching, the smoke, the bikes passing, rude waiters, where just what I wanted from a Paris bar. Although the waiters where rude in the beginning, they totally opened up by the end of the night. The beer prices where perfect. Although I didn't see anyone eating I did see a food menu. The best thing about this place is that it closes late. And the awesome atmosphere.

Warm goat cheese salad.
Taylor L.

Good lunch, decent prices. I got the onion soup and goat cheese salad. My husband had the carpaccio. Everything tasted good and service was good.

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.

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!

There were also tables outside but not many. The ambiance is good. The music is a bit loud for the amount of people that were dining in. The atmosphere is quite romantic with the dimmed lighting and the candles but the music does not set that tone whatsoever. Props to our server for bringing us extra plates when we mentioned we would be sharing the appetizer. Beef bourguignon with mashed potatoes (5/5): the portions were worth it for the price. They were quite sizable. When I was cutting, I could tell the beef was so tender. The meat was marinated very well and deep into it. Tap to pay is accepted. Overall, La Cave Gourmande is a small cute restaurant for some delicious french food. I highly recommend their beef bourguignon.

This place is a gem!…read more We were in Paris for two weeks and this place was so good, we had it twice. Located in Montmartre, this cozy 'cave' sits upon a busy street. As an American, you must get used to the slow pace that most restaurants run here. But, I've taken a sincere liking to slowing down and enjoying my food rather than eating 'on the go.' Order the beef bourguignon. It is amazing. Comes in a steaming pot with buttery mashed potatoes. Also tried the foie gras, escargots, and frog legs. Haven't had a dish that wasn't up to par. This place deserves more attention. A must visit if you're in the area.

Food: Of the things we ordered, I tried the: - Frog Legs - Puff pastry with snails - Duck breast - Ribeye steak - Chicken stuffed with foie gras - Creme brulee - Chocolate delight Everything was unbelievably good. The food was clearly homemade with care, and prepared with fresh ingredients. One thing I appreciated was that the food was not oily or greasy. I dream of the duck, frog legs, creme brulee, and chocolate delight - this was the best duck and creme brulee I have ever had. The duck and steak came with AMAZING potato wedges, which may be my favorite part of the meal. Service: this restaurant is a small family restaurant, owned by a father who cooks. His daughter managed the front of the restaurant when I dined here. She was incredibly friendly, spoke both French and English, and provided wonderful recommendations. Environment: This restaurant is exactly what I think of as a cozy Parisian cafe. It is located in a corner next to a long flight of stairs, and has approximately 10 tables. The restaurant is decorated so that is feels inviting and warm, but not small.

My wife and I came here after hiking around Montmartre and saw all the great reviews for this…read morerestaurant here and on other sites. We were so looking forward to the frog legs, onion soup and other delicacies pictured. We got there and the sign was just as it was with the same name -- Au Pied du Sacre Coeur. We should've noticed something was wrong when no one was inside. When the waiter (lone person working along with cook) gave us the menu, my wife and I stared at each other completely confused. The menu looked nothing like the ones on this website and featured Italian food items, like spaghetti, arroz con pollo or mozarella. I asked him about frog legs or the onion soup. He looked confused and just said no. Out of respect for him, we just ordered the charcuterie, which featured stale bread and a few slices of meat taken from my local grocery store in the U.S. Also -- they claimed to not accept any international credit cards. WHAT HAPPENED? Are all these reviews fake? Most likely, they underwent new ownership right when we visited. But new visitors -- please beware. Do not trust any of the reviews before mine. If I was mistaken, please post photos and just tell me that I was part of some elaborate joke to ruin a lunch for me and my wife.
