One of our favorite morning breakfast places in Paris. The food is delicious, the service is fantastic, and it's located in a great area. They have indoor and outdoor seating (although in the mornings it can get chilly). I usually get a morning omelet with a cappuccino. Sit down and enjoy the view as the locals stroll by! read more

We came here probably like 4 times in our trip. We loved it! The cappuccinos are really good and the vanilla ice cream was one of the best I've had. I love the ambience it's so chill here. Service is good. I miss it! read more

Sat outside on the terrasse people watching! Amazing lunch...juicy shoulder of lamb with a nice Bordeaux red wine! Met some very nice people on either side of us...from Bahrain and from Toronto (first time in France)! read more

Our first dining experience in Paris! We were welcomed and seated right away. The waiter was warm and helpful. We'd decided to try the Saint Germain cocktails, and they may have been the best we had on our trip. We split a salad, which had fried goat cheese in it. Deeelicious! I ordered the barbecue ham with fries. It was good, but I'd probably try something else if we returned. The restaurant was busy but not frenetic. We dined outside and enjoyed watching the people go by. We were sorry that we didn't get another chance to return there. read more

My trip to Paris wouldn't been complete if I didn't have French Onion Soup. So I came across This nice restaurant while walking down the lovely streets of Paris. The hostess was extremely nice which is one of the reasons I decided to dine in. The restaurant was nice and the French onion soup was to die for. If I ever revisit France again my first stop will be here. My daughter had the burger and fries which she liked as well. read more

Friendly and excellent service. I had escargot and Dos de cabillaud "cod". The fish melted in your mouth and cooked perfectly. We also had the veal which was very tender read more

Service was fabulous. Food was good. I wished the Onion soup was more flavorable but it was still good

A lovely restaurant on the boulevard. It looks like it'd be touristy but it was more of a local spot. Everything we had was excellent and when it comes to dessert, you can get mounds of real whipped cream on whatever your order. Fantastic ambiance, great wine and real whipped cream are the things that make me especially happy when dining out. read more

Always lively, and friendly and attentive wait staff. Great food as well - this is Paris, after all. We will be back next time we are in Paris. read more

We were looking for a good late-night bite after a concert in Paris, and I found Cafe Louise on some list. It was a good choice. It's a quintessential French restaurant or French brasserie - with a menu like the ones you'd find in such restaurants. All the basics are covered. But it is an awfully nice quality restaurant if you're hungry at midnight. -We ordered a salad just because we wanted something green. It was fresh and tasty. -I of course got foie gras, which was good/fine -French onion soup was some of the better french onion soup we found in France, nice and deeply flavorful with a good amount of cheese melted on top -And he got the crepes flambe, which arrived at the table with a tableside little pitcher of flaming sauce that was poured over much to the delight of everyone within our general vicinity. My husband, who does not drink, said the sauce still tasted really boozy, so he didn't finish them. But the french onion soup was good for him and then I got the boozy crepes, so win win win in my book lol. Service was friendly and efficient. I was a little confused since everywhere it said the Cafe was open till 2 a.m. but at about 12:30 we were told to get our last orders in because the kitchen was closing. So maybe it's variable depending on how busy it is? Who knows. At any rate, a good spot for a late night bite. read more

This place is easy to find and a good traditional French cafe. I visited here twice during my trip since the GoCity Paris Pass included 2 offers. We first stopped in for late afternoon drinks and snacks. We got spritz cocktails as well as some light snacks like bread, tuna salad, and fresh crudité. It was overall decent. The next morning we did the Parisian breakfast, which includes your choice of plain or chocolate croissant, fruit, orange juice, and a hot beverage. I chose an extra hot cafe au lait (like always)! It wasn't my favorite breakfast on the trip, but it was filling and enjoyable! The service was great both times! For what you get it's a good deal. read more

Went to Cafe Louise as this was having a nice menu offering for New Years Eve with live music and DJ party. However, this was not the case at all. We were seated downstairs in the "cave" of the restaurant, which decor wise was nice. The "live music" was basically one of their wait staff singing, which was not really good. I would not have called it live music, rather it should've been karaoke. And to top it all off, the food was horrendous! Not edible at all. Both of our plats, we could not even finish because it was cold, extremely creamy and you can tell it was a mass-produced lunch food. The entrees included two options: Foie gras OR seared scallops Plats were: monkfish OR chicken We were able to try all of them. The entrees Foie Gras and seared scallops started off right and was good! But once the plats arrived, everything went downhill. Overall, avoid especially during New Years eve. Nothing special of a restaurant. read more

The food was great and the service was wonderful. The orange juice was the freshest I can recall.

We quickly discovered that trying to find cabs/ubers for a family of 5 in Paris is nearly impossible. It wasn't easy getting a cab from the Eiffel tower to our dinner reservation here so we appreciated that Cafe Louise didn't mind that we were 30 minutes late. We also appreciate this was located just a few blocks from our fabulous hotel, Hotel Bel Ami, so we could walk home after. My kids all ordered the kids steak and frites, which they claimed was basically a burger. They seemed to enjoy it, but also had some FOMO looking at my poke bowl (good) and my husband's octopus dish (so good). I had FOMO myself after a bite of his octopus. For dessert we split a few crepes because have to have crepes daily when in Paris and these were good ones. It wasn't the best meal we had in Paris, but overall we enjoyed and the location was quite convenient. read more

The food and welcoming staff won us over to the point we returned again with all the restaurants in Paris. Trust me we are not push overs. The specials were superb. The chef has a deft hand making the French menu into a personal triumph. Prices were fair. read more

I thoroughly enjoyed the ambience and food here. The waiters were polite, attentive, and nice. The got the chicken wok dish and a Saint germain drink. Amazing! One of the best meals I've had at cafe in Paris. I left feeling full and satisfied. I even had food left over. Bread also comes with the meal. Relax, plp watch and enjoy the food! Inside is a whole another amazing vibe and experience. Check out downstairs - gives you a upscale speakeasy vibe. Very cozy and chic. read more

We absolutely loved this restaurant. The food was fantastic, the service was great. I only wish we could have eaten here more than once.

Host was mean and they got our order wrong. Waitress was very nice but the host started things off on a wrong note. Reservation was at 11:15am and she first pretended like we didn't make one, and then said that it was for 11:30. Our name was literally on her sheet for 11:15 -- I saw it. Food was standard but like I said they got our order wrong. Cute interior tho lol read more

We had the Go City Paris pass, and this was one of the restaurants that offered a free breakfast through the pass. I was a little weary about what to expect. However, as soon as we walked in my worries were swept away. We were asked if we had the Go City Pass. From there we were seated and presented with a bowl of fresh fruit and freshly squeezed orange juice. The waiter gave us our option of hot drinks, and asked if we wanted a croissant or chocolate croissant. The drinks were steaming hot, and delicious and the pastries were fresh. I would come back here if I had to pay. I would simply come back because the food was delicious, the service was outstanding, and it was a very cute cafe. read more

This place is the absolute best! We were seated almost immediately when walking in. We started with french onion soup which was delicious, and flavorful. The mains we had were the gnocchi & the louise burger which was cooked to perfection. The crème brûlée was absolutely fantastic and cannot be beat. The ambiance is nice and relaxed with a great bartender and plenty if outside seating. Didnt get her name, but shout out to the little blonde waitress who did a phenomenal job! read more

Beautiful cafe right across the street from some better-known cafes in St Germain. In my opinion, Cafe Louise is a much better choice. Not as chaotic, friendly service, and amazing food! Highly recommend the crispy salad! One of the highlights of our week in Paris. read more

We came here for a later dinner after a very full day. We were looking for a nicer place to eat. Cafe Louise fit the bill. It was quiet and relaxing. The service was attentive and friendly. The wine choices and prices were fair. I didn't take many pictures. I went with the beef tartare. I only remembered to do a picture after I already started. We had a nice visit and meal while we decompressed from a long day. read more

Hands down one of my favorite restaurants I went to in Paris. Quick tip, you can go across the street to Cafe De Flore and get some coffee/Tea but come across the street to eat here. Service is 10x better and so is the food selection. I went twice during my short stay in Paris. It's a good place to have a bday gathering. There's a nice event space at the bottom. read more

Very nice restaurant in St Germain neighborhood. Great atmosphere inside with lots of sidewalk seating as well. Our waiter was fantastic and spoke English as well. Started with the salmon egg rolls and a nice bottle of Chardonnay. Main courses were delicious and there were a lot of choices on the menu. Cheesecake for dessert with an espresso. Would definitely eat here again. read more

Café Louise was one of our first stops in Paris, and one of our favorites! We took a seat outside and ordered a few glasses of wine, while they brought out complementary toast and guacamole. The service was some of the best we had in Paris, our waitress was so attentive and patient, even with our major indecisiveness :). Embarrassingly enough, we actually spilled one of the glasses of wine. We were just going to buy another one, but they ended up giving us a glass on the house! This was incredibly kind and SO completely unnecessary. But very appreciated. From the service, to the beautiful outside seating and ambiance, I would 100% recommend checking out Café Louise. When I come back to visit, it will be the first stop I make! read more

Fabulous! Magnificent! Hospitable! A neighborhood icon! The food is amazing big n so is the service

Looking for a fabulous French meal in the heart of Ste Germaine? Checkout Cafe Louise! Started with happy hour. Prices weren't an incredible deal unless you ordered a specialty cocktail. However, they served a tomato flavored goat cheese and toasted crostini. Yum. We opted to split a starter of onion soup- a must do! Huge flavor with ewwwy gooey cheese goodness. My husband ordered he veal ...an excellent choice! Altho ordered medium it probably needed to be medium rare as he said it seemed a little over cooked. The au gratin potatoes were rich and tastey. His meal was paired with a medium Bordeaux wine. I had an eye on dessert and was going to forgo a meal and super glad I tried their take on an avocado crab salad. The smooth guacamole type base held a pile of small little hunks of crab. Our neighboring table had a hamburger and another entree that was an equivalent of gourmet mac n cheese. They raved about their meals. The homemade, house special profiteroles were outstanding! One order contained 2 large profiteroles and was PLENTY to split. Indulging in dessert was a wonderful way to finish our relaxing 2.5-hour gastro delight! I'd highly recommend cafe Louise for a French experience. read more

DELICIOUS FOOD, pretty decor, but.... The waiter was rude. He must have hated Americans. I tried several times to speak as much French as I could when ordering, but could not win the man over. It was uncomfortable. In my 4 weeks time in Paris, he was the least friendly person I have encountered. It started with an eye roll when I ordered still water. He "forgot" to bring it so I didn't bother to ask. He dropped a receipt, I picked it up, looked up how to say "it dropped" in French and gave it to him. He scrunched it up and tossed it on his tray with a displeased look. It went downhill from there. With that said, the atmosphere was really nice and I really loved my crispy onions over chicken, quinoa and spinach salad. My mom's burger was just ok and fries were great. Review would have been higher if it were not for the service. read more

Cafe Louise is in a cluster of other cafes that may get more attention, but I am so glad we chose to go there for lunch last Friday. It was our last day in Paris and a friend who is a traveler and foodie from Germany highly recommended Cafe Louise. I was really glad my cousin and I decided to go there before we ran out of time in Paris. Mimi's friend Brigette lives just outside of Paris and she joined us for lunch too. First of all it is in a prime location on Boulevard Saint Germain, but it is sheltered by a little side street so you don't get the excessive noise from the traffic. You do however get a beautiful view on the boulevard and the cafes and other stores across the street. Louis Vuitton is across the street too. FOOD: 5/5 Stars Two of us ordered the croque madame, but I ordered a salad as a side and Mimi ordered the frites. We call them French fries at first, but Brigette with her perfect French accent corrected us. It was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had and the presentation was beautiful on their plates. We all tried the frites and those were great too. Brigette ordered the burrata and she like that. We all shared a bottle of rose that was perfect. It was a very pale pink and it tasted great. It is the less expensive rose of their list. Mimi ordered a apple tart for dessert and Brigette ordered the creme brulee. I tried the tart and it was delicious. AMBIANCE: 5/5 Stars It was perfect. We opted to sit inside so we could chat with Brigette, but it's a perfect spot to sit outside too. They also have seating downstairs. SERVICE: 5/5 STARS It was great from beginning to end. I made a reservation, but you may not need one for lunch unless it's a busy time of year. I think going to Paris at the end of October was the perfect time to go because it wasn't as busy when I visited in July of 2016. RECOMMENDATION: Definitely bookmark this cafe. Yes, you could go to the famous Cafe Flore or Les Deux Maggots across the street, but you will not be disappointed. Yes, I am an American, but I recognize good food and service. read more
