We have been here years in the past and it was one of our favorite restaurants. This time was much different. We came early for a drink and the waiter wasn't going to let me use the restroom. Weird. The octopus was extremely chewy. 2 years ago it was the best octopus I have ever had! Quite a change. The burrata was disappointing (I asked for no red pepper so it came plain!). The steak tartar was pretty good. It's in a decent neighborhood. read more

I had the steak tartare and my daughter the Caesar salad. The tartare was one of the best that I had recently, the fries were excellent and the Caesar tasty. The service was efficient and friendly. Highly recommend. read more

Great spot in Paris if you love seafood. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. We had the escargot as an appetizer (fantastic) and the salad with hericots vert and tomato. For entrees we had mussels and sole meunière. The wine list is good. The seafood towers are extraordinary. We ended with sorbet. Perfect meal. read more

Ambiance great, food great. Service pretty much sucked. It felt like once they knew we were English speaking then that was the beginning of the surliness. They were busy I'll give them that but when the prices are what they are I expected professionalism. read more

Don't be fooled by the average rating. This is an excellent place to taste a delicious French sea foods near Champs-Elysees. On our way to the French Rivera, we stopped by at this restaurant recommended by the hotel concierge staff & loved it. It was such an elegant place in a classic pre WWII setting with an efficient service, variety of wine selections, delicious foods at a reasonable cost. We had two appetizers ( including the local caviars with glasses of champagne , main dishes , see the pictures, with a half a bottle of Sancerre wine including the service fee under 200 euros for two! No desserts as we were too full to eat anymore. Try this restaurant while you are in Paris ! read more

Food is very unpredictable. It can be excellent but also distasteful. Highly recommend seafood, better meat options in other restaurants like "gourmet des Ternes". The Oysters are wonderful, souflet is as well (order at the beginning of the meal). Service as well unpredictable, could be personal but you could also end up having to ask 3 times for the menu. Atmosphere is very nice for lunch and dinner but can get quite loud especially during lunch. read more

Despite an average of 3.5 stars I thought it was simply wonderful . The seafood towers here are amazing I love how they have land and sea snails and all kinds of delicacies you would not find in the states. The bistro style service is the kind that doesn't rush you but always happy to explain whatever it is you need when being asked read more

Great taste! The food is fresh and nice! So enjoy the bread and oysters in the restaurant! read more

Very low quality food, the only thing fresh on our seafood platter was the oysters, everything else was not that fresh especially the crab. I wish I can give them zero star. read more

Yelp specifically instructs us to consider more than the food and this is a good reminder to me. The food here was great but no revolution: French comfort food I call it. You will pay for the privilege but this is a full service and spectacular brasserie that will meet anyone's needs. I can't guarantee every little thing will be perfect (the bread they served had to have been more than a few hours old for example) but to call this place less than five stars would throw the universe into turmoil. read more

Mussels in coconut green curry broth were best I've ever had. Complementary bread was delicious, and their balsamic vinegar for dipping with olive oil was divine! Snails were a hit. French sole was cooked perfectly and tasty. Portions are small, however. Restaurant itself is very nice and beautiful. read more

Wow wow wow. Razor clams are my favorite dish here. It's our second time and we will be back again.

Has unfortunately gone way down. Meals are overpriced for quality and service is terrible. Particularly awful to foreigners! read more

Recommended by a new acquaintance and glad for it. This was our first night in Paris and we were in the area and walking back toward the Champs Elysees. We sat outside and enjoyed the people watching. Our server was very busy but maintained a reasonable amount of contact with us. We shared an enormous (600g) piece of sole cooked in butter and served with lemon. Rice pilaf accompanied the dish. The sole was fresh, delicate and delicious. Other diners around us were enjoying shellfish (oysters, lobster, etc.) and beef (large tenderloins cooked quite rare). We weren't interested in such a heavy meal and we got exactly what we wanted. Great atmosphere; a happening place; attentive service. A solid recommendation. read more

Typical high-end brasserie other examples of which in my opinion include Le Flandrin in the 16th or Le Congres in Porte Maillot. Excellent selection of fruits de mer (cold, fresh shellfish), the foie gras was good but not exceptional, the sole meuniere was good but not exceptional, the steak frites was great as was the salmon pave. Overall, I'd say this place is a solid high-end brasserie. If you don't like traditional brasseries that's another issue. But if you like them and are in the neighborhood (Place de Ternes), it's a great option. Food-wise, I'd give Le Flandrin or Le Congres the advantage, but this place is good enough. Note that it was quite frustrating that they didn't seem to list a full menu online as the actual menu is far deeper than the one I could find online in advance. read more

This has been a Paris staple since before WW2. (Because of its Franco-German name, it was said to have been a favorite of the Nazis when they occupied Paris). The food is classic French, with their escargot and soupe des poisson being exceptional starters. I happen to believe that their steak tartare is amongst the best in this city.. and that is saying something. If you have space, you must have their chocolate profiteroles. read more

Being the first Place We ate in France, After a long journey from Avignon, and a recommendation from our concierge, we walked to this great looking corner local Brasserie. Upon first impressions, the Inside looked as nice as the outside. Seating was professional, the menus given and our orders takin in a prompt manner. The young gentlemen waiter is my favorite for service, professionalism, and attitude. Then came the older waiter, who took over (unfortunately). When He took forever, delivered our food improperly, and was really not a help in the slightest, to him his job was a bother. for us, it ruined the atmosphere. He also served me the more expensive of a wine cuvee, from a producer I had ordered properly. In all essence, and old wine scam. 2 wines from the same producer, one being less $$ than the other. I was tired, and did not look close enough, the bottle was twice the price when the bill came. Oh well, Thanks to this waiter, I will be less trusting of french waiters now. Thanks. The Seafood was good, and they bring out a wonderful little aperitif when you sit down to order. Very nice. If it had not been for the older waiter, I would have given this Brasserie 4 stars. read more

Wonderful dinner at La Lorraine. Fresh seafood tower and oysters were fabulous, fish for mains were also fantastic. This was made even better by a wonderfully attentive and helpful staff, always there smiling and providing an outstanding evening. Will come back! read more

Okay, first of all this review is only relevant to the dessert. We never ate dinner here but we did come here for dessert one night and were not disappointed. We made it clear that we were there just for dessert but they still loaded us up with free bread which I felt obligated to try. As it is just about everywhere in Paris, the bread was quite good, but that wasn't what we were there for. I got a seasonal raspberry based dessert and my wife got the creme brulet. Both were excellent and I would gladly go back again for dessert. read more

Parisian brasseries have lost most of their charms. Nowadays most of them outsource all of their deserts; Parisian Brasserie's food has become fad and pretty unexciting over the years. As fresh, genuine and local produces has become such a luxury trend in France, most brasseries take shortcuts as they are profit driven and good cash machines. La Lorraine however has its touch, and I wouldn't apply the same rude judgment. Indeed it's pretty good as it has almost always been. One that didn't yet turn in a tourist trap, one of the few that are left! read more

I would have given 4 stars but the staff treated me like the tourist that I apparently am, 5star prices but for me poor service, for example the waiter returned only once to refill our wine then I was on my own. Plates not bussed promptly. Maybe if I spoke better French the service would not have been sub par read more

We just tried to have a breakfast here. Barely made it. Staff speaks little English, actually understands nothing. We got ignored, waited way too long for an express breakfast and when it came, it was not the one we wanted. The first time we ordered an express breakfast, we got espressos. The second time was a bust too. Please don't waste your time in this overpriced place, and enjoy your meal elsewhere. read more

Terrible service. Was ignored by the staff and 3 tables who sat after us were served before us seemingly because they were locals. Tourists beware. read more

It's a typical trap you might get into on the first few days in Paris. Typical touristy spot where they simply don't care whether you are coming back or not. Paris gets 50mm tourists a year and with a location that this restaurant has they will get you or a next guy that just arrived and have to eat at out normal hours which is whenever we want. Beat restaurants in Paris are closed from 3-7 therefore I felt for this trap - should've went to mc Donald's - garbage food and shitty service - stay away and focus on restaurants that deliver - there are so many of them in Paris ! read more

Excellent seafood recommend led by local colleagues. I had fargot, oysters, sole, and ice cream dessert. We had a nice burgundy white wine from the Dijon region. read more

Rude servers. Food came out cold. When I sent it back the same salmon was given back to me reheated. Not acceptable. Staff very attentive to French speakers but if you are tourists you are treated badly. read more

It's a very good restaurant where you eat well. the seabass & salmon were great. On shouldn't miss the fish soup with rouille & cheese. WOW!!!! read more

Everything is perfect if you are looking for a typical parisien summer reunion with friends. Away from touristic chaos but close to Champs-Elysées. Their gambas entrée is a must try, full of fresh taste from the sea. But don't be too critical on service - take that laid back spirit since we are in Paris. read more

I went there with my Boyfriend the other night might I add very late past midnight and it was fantastic..I had a fish soup plus champagne etc..bill was extremley high..but well worth it..it's a nice place read more

This restaurant came to us as a recommendation from our hotel. Lovely atmosphere. We found the wait staff to be disorganized and the price of the items ordered seemed to dictate the level of service received. Appetizer of green beans was good but overpriced. Fillet and chicken were mediocre at best and a bad value. Paris has so much more to offer. Don't waste a meal here. read more

If you are looking for a brasserie with buzz, go to Brasserie Lorraine. Our hotel concierge had recommended we try some of the more modern, quiet restaurants down the streets off of Champs Elysee, but when we got there, they were just too quiet. We got back onto the wider streets and ran into La Lorraine which occupies an entire corner. Their set menu is fantastic--the menu descriptions are as clear as they can get. The souffle with rum to die for. If you seek a Mad Men 1950's art deco feel, give Lorraine a go. Don't be fazed by the servers who take your order and disappear. They will be back to check-up on you juggling three plates and bottles of wine. read more

Rather large and impersonal restaurant. Request a table by the windows for more ambience. Waitstaff identified us as English and seemed to try to dial in a more rushed service. We slowed them down and things improved. Fois Gras and Escargot starters were good. Lamb and Steak had sat under a heat lamp for a minute too long, drying food out slightly but lamb was excellent. Grand Marnier soufflé was excellent. While restaurant was good, would not return... read more
