Cèpe et Figue - Self explanatory - French Near Me - Paris, 75

Not sure why it has average review! We thought it was amazing. Originally we wanted to go to the restaurant across the street but they had a long wait so we decided to give this cute place a try! We popped in and asked if they could squeeze us the two of us in since we didn't have a reservation, the lady at the front was so nice and said no problem as long as you can finish within 1.5 hours! So we were taken upstairs and had a cute corner table. The menu is on a chalkboard! So cool! It was all in French so couldn't really figure out what was on it. The server we had spoke English and he was super nice and helpful. So I started with the escargot (very flavorful) and bread. Hubby started off with the egg, he enjoyed it. For the main I had their take on the beef bourguignon, they also had the regular one on the menu tonight but I opted for this new style! It was basically fried into cakes, OMG so good! For dessert I had the pear and chocolate crumble (came with vanilla ice cream). Had a glass of red wine with my meal and everything was delicious! Service was excellent! Everyone around us was French so I took that as a really good sign!!! Not just a tourist place like the restaurant across the street! Give this place a shot! You won't be disappointed. read more

I had one of my most favorite meals in Paris at Cepe et Figure! My sister and I were walking around just looking for an interesting place to eat dinner and we stumbled upon this cute and cozy looking restaurant and decided to give it a shot! We were both very glad we did! Upon entering it felt so homey and welcoming. I knew I was in a good spot when I heard Joni Mitchell playing on the stereo system! The service was great. I did my best to speak the little French that I knew but luckily the waitress spoke great English so that really helped. I started with the escargot. Absolutely the best I have ever eaten. I had the beouf bourguignan as my entrée and it was amazing! My mouth is watering at this very moment! It came with pasta - I remember I liked it but the meat was so good the side didn't matter!!! I had a wonderful chocolate dessert but again, I was so distracted by my entrée nothing else mattered!! Writing this review is making me miss this place...can't wait to go back!! read more

Amazing French food for extremely reasonable price. My husband and I ate here twice and were absolutely in love. I would highly recommend and plan to go back if we are in Paris again. The staff was friendly as well which is always a bonus. read more

The best French food we had in Paris. Intimate setting with extremely friendly servers. I recommend their novel take on Bœuf bourguignon. Will be returning on our next visit. read more

Cozy and welcoming French bistro. Came in and got to try a bunch of classics. The food was very very good! This place came recommended from some of our Parisian friends so I walked in knowing it should be quite good. Loved the prix fix lunch menu where you could get an entree and main plate for around 20€. Love! The little raviolis to start were tasty. Such good escargot and the duck and beef burgundy were splendid. And we closed with a perfect lemon tart. We weren't rushed out once the kitchen closed and could sit and enjoy our bottle of wine while we caught up. It was very nice! Highly recommend! read more

Walked in on a whim to try frog legs for the first time! The meat itself was kind of bland, so I was mostly tasting the buttery garlic and parsley sauce. Homey atmosphere along a picturesque cobblestone alley, gorgeous pastries displayed through the window, a rustic cake on the counter, and the wines of the month written in chalk. My roasted lamb shoulder was tender and a lot more filling than I expected, and the buttery, chunky mashed potato topped with sprinkles of sea salt was TO DIE FOR. My bf had calamari as a starter and juicy duck breast with fig sauce as his main dish. The Menu Dégustation (tasting menu) of 18 EUR and a carafe of Côtes de Provence rosé wine left us stuffed, happy, and satisfied. This place was a great find with yummy French food in a cute location. read more

This is my favorite 110- star restaurant! It is mom and pop. It is authentic. It's rea. It is French. My friend brought me here on the tire was just hungry... Yet I found a beautiful piece of grilled fish with vegetables and reasonably priced bottles of wine. It's in a little alley off of the Main Street. Incredible. read more

After a whole day of museum visits (3 in total), we decided to walk back to our hotel from the Louvre instead of taking the metro. We ended up taking a detour - or getting lost according to others - and found a few quaint little streets that seem like they haven't changed since the 1800's. Of course, just on the other side of rue St-Andre des Arts was Saint Germaine (though we didn't know at the time)! Oh what a gem we stumbled upon! After looking at the menus of a few places close by, we found Cepe & Figue. I was, of course, persuaded by their multiple dishes of duck - their menu is in english also. The waiter there noticed our bad french and spoke decent english for us. My other half ended up ordering the Filet mignon de porc sauce aux cepes (15 euros) with a glass of red wine recommended by the waiter and I ordered off their menu degustation (18 euros for an entree + plat). I ended up the Escargot de Bourgagne for my entree, and Magret de canard sauce gastrique a la figue (which translates to gastric sauce with figs). The escargot was deliciously drenched in oils and parsley (burgundy style)! They were a little smaller than snails I've had at other places, but I like a more even snail to seasoning ratio anyways. The duck was tender and juicy, not seasoned much, since there's the fig sauce to dip it in. The sauce was very light and fresh, rather than rich, which suits my tastes. I was able to dunk each piece of duck into the sauce and it didn't overpower the flavor of the duck. The dish was served with a very simple and small salad, and a side of herb roasted potatoes that were the best potatoes my wife's had in Paris so far. Haha! She claims they are because they were actually seasoned, and had a nice, slight crunchy skin to go along with the soft texture of the meat of the potatoe. I nod my head in agreement. The Filet mignon de porc was served in a mushroom sauce, and it melts in your mouth. I stole a taste of course! The dish was served with the same side salad and potatoes. The wine the waiter recommended went great with the dish. Tip: just ask the waiters to recommend a wine to go with the food because 9/10 times they hit the nail on the head! Overall, this was one of the best meals we've had in Paris (not necessarily the best food, but best overall experience). I think because of a few main reasons. The staff was friendly, spoke decent english, and the food felt like a home cooked meal. It didn't hurt either that the prices were some of the most reasonable we've come across. The total bill ended up being around 37 euros as compared to 80 euros and above!

Cèpe et Figue - Magret de canard, served with herbed potatoes and a side of salad. Please forgive the poor lighting. - French Near Me - Paris, 75

The only thing worse than the food is the service! The ownership is beyond rude and it felt like they were doing us a favor by eating at three restaurant! I walked by their place every morning and saw the same pies in the window 4 days in a row! There's probably a reason they are still there, the product speaks for itself! La Jacboine is across the way and would go there any day over this place. Too bad you can't rate 0 ! read more

Is it possible to do "0" stars? Unfortunately I popped into this place before a movie at UGC ODEON and I got food poisoning from the Salade Chevre Chaud. My partner ordered the same thing but he avoided much of the salad and ate most of the goat cheese/toast. He felt tainted by it also. I had a 24-hour episode where I required immodium; baguette; applesauce; bananas and coconut water to recover. If the greens are OLD this place should not serve them. I'll never go again; however, quaint it seemed to be. If I knew of an equivalent CDC-Center for Disease Control (in Paris) I would report it. read more

My husband and I enjoyed the food. Nothing spectacular, but we were fed good food. I ordered from the "menu" (appetizer and main) for €19. I got escargot and pork with apples and potatoes. read more

I can't stress enough how much I loved this place!Myself and a group of friends were looking for a place to dine in the area and while checking the price list outside the restaurant, we got chatting to the owner of the place. He was so friendly, nice and funny (also clearly really good at his job) that we couldn't help but go in. I am so glad we did. As soon as we sat down the owner brought us a free glass of wine each which I thought was really lovely. The place was quite busy but not overcrowded, mostly locals (good sign) and regular customers (even better sign). Everything on the menu looked yummy. We all went for the 2 courses meal for 19€ which I thought it was very good value. I ordered the Foie Gras as starter ( REALLY good) and the duck breast fillet with raspberry sauce. This was hands down the best meal I had in Paris. The duck was cooked to perfection (I was suggested by the waiter to have it medium cooked) and it was absolutely delicious. It was a decent size but I just didn't want it to end! Despite being pretty full after the meal I also went for dessert, chocolate and pear tart, and that didn't disappoint either..so good! When it came to the bill, the total including drinks was 28€, excellent considering the quality of food. I would definitely recommend this place. The service was some of the best I've experienced, with the owner cracking jokes the whole time and making sure we were being looked after, and the food was really really good. I can see why many people there seemed to be regulars, if I lived in Paris that is one place I would keep going to for sure! read more

Pretty good food. Not tons of flavor. After adding tons of salt and pepper, it was pretty good.

Had an absolutely fabulous dinner at this place, lovely Parisian ambiance and great food prepared with care. Our attention was drawn by the desserts on display in the window: we found out that they are homemade and taste as delicious as they look! We took the menu of 19€ for an entrée and a plat, no doubt you can have inferior food in this neighbourhood for double the price. Special mention for the tartare of bass with mango and avocado, and for the duck with honey. Service was great, too. We couldn't decide about the wine and asked for help, what we got was a free tasting. In short: worth every dime, we will definitely be back when we visit Paris again. read more

Affordable and quaint and off the beaten path which was a nice change of scenery. On a side street you get the joy of people watching without the hectic traffic. Good was delish and the waiters were very nice despite our poor French. The lunch menu is well priced (12€ for appetizer and entree) and dinner was just as fair (19€ for 2 courses). I had mushroom ravioli with white chive sauce and my mother had the French onion soup. Cheesecake and cream Brûlée followed. One of our best meals this far-- definitely the best priced. read more

Well-priced set menu of 12EU for lunch, but rather greasy and not entirely sure what sort of cuisine ti was supposed to be... Great location however. read more

OK-to-great food and very competitive prices, but poor service. We came here as a group of four for dinner. They had a prix fixe menu that included an appetizer and main course for 19 EU. Otherwise, main courses were around 15 EU. The food was mixed. The ravioli mushroom appetizer was filling as a meal in itself and fantastic. The salads were huge and flavorful. However some other items were less appealing. For example, the beef bourguignon had barely any meat. This place is a solid bet when in the area and you don't want to fear getting ripped off. read more

Oh, the waist is going to get bigger living in Paris for the next two months, and this place isn't helping. This small spot is located in an enchanting cobblestone alley in Saint-Germain named Rue Saint-André des Arts. We stopped in for a bite (which turned into a two-course lunch) and feasted on some duck pâté with jam, arugula caprese salad, squid in red sauce and a French-style champignon ravioli in cream sauce. I had to take a wine 1/2 through the meal just to get the the stuff down. Even the bread was great. All this for 24 €! What a steal in such a styled part of Paris. Only thing I need to do know is run about 6 miles to burn this all off, look out dinner! read more

The owner of the restaurant was out front and as we were strolling by told us about the special dinner menu for 19.00 Euros. He was very very charming, and very confident about the food being the "best french meal for the price in Paris". I left a little skeptical, but we decided to give it a try the very next evening. I am pleased to say he was right!! The food for the price was very very good! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone traveling to Paris and staying in and around the Latin quarter. I had a really nice salad, and my fiance had the most tender, flavorful lamb. The other bonus here was they were ready to accommodate my fiances gluten allergy. We are definitely going to visit this restaurant again. read more

Favorite restaurant in Paris. All of their duck dishes are incredible! The crumble fruits rouges is a must for dessert!!

Amazing meal!! 12 euro lunch was delicious... We had the carpaccio of tomato and rabbit terrine starters and the steak and duck confit entrees. All were fantastic. Beautiful desserts. Wait for a seat downstairs, it's worth it. Great ambiance, service and value. A hidden gem! read more

Have been here a few times and my first meal a lunch was incredible. So I retuned for dinner the next couple of times I was in Paris and it was okay but not great.

Great French food on a very beautiful street! Service is good and atmosphere is lovely.

Do not come here and waste your money. Everything that we ordered was crap. Do not order the French onion soup from here!!! The soup itself is flavorless and cold. The onions were undercooked and the cheese wasn't event melted. I was severely disappointed. read more

Wonderful restaurant tucked in a little section of several other restaurants. It is one of our go to places in Paris. Friendly and accommodating staff, and the food is amazing and at a very affordable price. The beef bourguignon is fantastic! I also recommend the Camembert and honey or escargots for entrees! read more

Great little restaurant in a superb location with wonderful, friendly service, and a choice of high value prix fix menus. The escargot are outstanding, as was the desert. The main courses (recommended by the staff) were very good, though the boeuf was a bit tough it was extremely tasty. Highly recommend. read more
