Escargot and Salmon over polenta
Danielle G.

Walking thru this lovey neighborhood in the 9th Arr. on my first night in Paris. I found this local gem, quintessential Parisian cafe. People sitting outside drinking and smoking on this cold winter night, they were very busy. The waiter was so friendly and seating us immediately. I order their salmon over polenta and it just was wonderful, But barely could finish it, after first having the traditional escargot and bread omg so delicious. I highly recommend this cafe, great service and food, that isn't over priced.

The best Parasian cafe there is in Paris!! The food is pretty cheap considering its food quality and taste, but not Bouillon cheap. Very cozy and warm type atmosphere inside; the host and waiters were extremely helpful and friendly towards my friends and I. We both got the duck confit (our absolute favorites), les escargots, and crème brûlée. The duck confit was so crispy on the outside and so tender on the inside. Ugh I can literally taste it while typing this up!! I've been to Paris 4 times and every time I've been there I've eaten at this place because it reminds me "home" (my international home) and literally has THE best French food. Definitely check out this place if you're in Paris!

Duck Confit

Update: We decided to come back on our last night here. It's close our hotel, and the food is good. What a different experience, and not in a good way! We were promptly seated (don't need reservations here, which is nice), but were ignored for nearly a half an hour while locals who sat down after us were attended to. Perhaps they're not fond of tourists tonight? When we finally were able to place our order, we got a bowl of French onion soup, and two duck confits. As before, the food was delicious! Unfortunately, we didn't get to finish the soup though. It was taken before we were done. Literally while we were taking a bite, with the explanation that the waitress had already put our dinners in, so we "had" to be done. Seriously?? Would really liked to have finished that soup... After that, I just wanted to leave, so we finished up pretty quick. Not sure if I would come back again... Some of the best food for value we found in Paris, and one of the most pleasant dining experiences as well! We stopped in after a very long day, and we're both tired and hungry. We were promptly (and excellently!) taken care of by Luciana. After ordering our wine -- and getting an excellent recommendation -- we ordered the roasted chicken and the duck confit for dinner. They were both delicious! Moist meat, well seasoned, yummy potatoes. We also ordered a cheese plate. It was good as well. Luciana gave us multiple recommendations for dinner, drinks, and treats in different areas of town, and chatted with us for awhile. For the experience and food, I would definitely come back, and recommend.

Nestled in the heart of the 9th arrondissement, Bo Man Cafe sports your usual fare of entrecôte, penne and salad dishes. That's not to say they're not perfectly well done though. We had a very good lunch experience here, accentuated by the late 90s soundtrack playing on the sound system. Pricing is super low for a Parisian cafe as well. Recommended.

Chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream.

This is my second time to Bo Man. It's just a few minutes walk from one of my fav hotels, Hotel Joyce. The 9th is a mellow area too. This is also the second time I've had the roast chicken with mashed potatoes. Is it me or does everything taste better in Paris? The chicken (10€) is amazing. And the pan juices with the mashed potatoes are delicious. Finished off with the molten chocolate cake. Cliche, I know. But last time I had the creme Brûlée which was also good. Enjoyed a glass Cote du Rhone (2€50). Really affordable and a much more authentic or neighborhood Paris feel than the touristy areas. Seconds walk from Saint George line. Dessert, dinner and wine €19.50. Friendly service too.

Nice place to chill with friends

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!

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.
