They changed the staff recently but the food is still good!

The rave reviews are dead on. AMAZING FOOD, oh my god. I think that was the BEST burger I've EVER had in my life. Decor, food, ambiance...all of it spot on. Make sure you TEXT to get a reservation. read more

By far the best burger I have ever had in life and ironically in Paris!! There's about 10 things on this menu I can say the same thing about. Most Celeb hotspots are overrated but this is the real deal. Call ahead, can take awhile to get a reservation. read more

Only the best burger in the world. Chefs choice in Europe for best burger! Small and tight but worth it! They have a secret sauce that is heavenly. Make Reso well in advance or you cannot eat here. read more

Time for a break where the caponata is good and the cheeseburger is reputed

Was in Paris for my birthday this past January and I must say Ferdi was the best food we in Paris our whole stay. We were there for 6 days and we are at Ferdi twice. Hard to get reservations so I recommend making them days ahead. They only take reservations via text. We did learn that they will take some walk ins right when the restaurant opens. While we where dining people would walk in and get politely turned away. Now to the food...the best burger in town!! Cooked perfectly and the Mac and cheese is a must have side. OMG!! So Delish! For dessert we had the famous CHURROS that Kim Kardashian raved about and I must admit they were life changing deliciousness!! Second night we dined I had the beef stroganoff with rice...yummy! And I can't forget to mention the guacamole with shrimp, so creamy! Everything was perfectly seasoned and tender. I definitely will return on my next visit to Paris! Thank you Ferdi for the EPIC experience! read more

See all

OK. I read the reviews and thought I'd give this place a try. The tables were extremely small and had to literally rub elbows with the patron beside me. I went there at 6 so the place was empty and they asked if I had a reservation. Told them no but they did seat me. The waitress was nice. I ordered a Caesar salad, empanadas and a piece of roasted corn on the cob. the salad was flavorful but unfortunately was iceberg lettuce. The corn was parbiloiled and then placed on a grill to create grill marks. The empanadas were overcooked and frankly the ones from Costco are much better. I had one beer and the bill was 46 Euros. Not worth the cost! read more

Amazing place to eat in a hidden street behind the Westin Vendome. I've only ever had the burger but trust me there is nothing else you'd want to have. As an American a burger in France sounds weak but honestly it doesn't get much better than this. It's incredibly difficult to describe but it's like if a Big Mac were made with the highest quality ingredients. A++ read more

I JUST got back from eating at Ferdi. I had no idea about the Kim Kardashian thing OR the burgers. We are staying at the Westin Hotel which is just around the block so we decided to try it. As soon as we walked in, a very impatient waiter asked us if we had a reservation, we said no and he sent us to a table in the back, next to another couple who arrived in front of us. I asked if we could sit on another table (and pointed the table out to him) and he said it was reserved at 8:00 pm (it was 7:20) for somebody else. Very rude and fast, like trying to get rid of us. We sat in the back (as he instructed us) and as soon as we sat down he sat another couple in the table we had requested, like literally 2 minutes later. My husband ordered guacamole and chips and he said the guacamole was out of a can, not even fresh. You talk to them in french and they reply to you in english because they are impatient. They don't want to deal with you. The coffee was burned. Portions are tiny to say the least. Tiny. Expensive for the size. They are selling a corn on the cob for 10 euros, total rip-off. Spend your money somewhere else where they appreciate tourists as well as locals. We come to Paris 4 times a year and always to the same hotel, we could have been regulars but that won't happen. We had 5 tapas, 1 coffee and 1 bottle of water: 59 euros. read more

The hype is real.......this place is amazing, not just for the burger but for other dishes too! This was probably the first place I had bookmarked when looking at places to eat in Paris, and I was so excited when I found out Ferdi was two blocks from our hotel. We ended up walking up with no reservation our first night in Paris, the place was packed but luckily a table had left right after we arrived so we only waited about 5-10 minutes. However, next time I will definitely be making a reservation. Of course I had to try the famous burger, and it was delicious. I recommend getting it with the egg and bacon! My husband ordered the beef stroganoff (super random) but it was recommended from the couple that was leaving as we were entering. I tried some of it, and it was a game changer. We also started off with the empanada's and some cheese plates which were BOMB. Since this is Kim K's favorite place for churro's, I had to order those too which were fresh/fluffy/amazing. I did hear from another couple that the madeleines and coffee ice cream were out of this world, so I definitely want to try those next time. I love that the menu has such a wide variety of dishes that you can choose from. You can definitely tell that the food is fresh, they even have a sign on the door that says "if you have the time, we have the food" or something to that nature meaning to be patient because the food will be delicious. The space is tiny and super busy, but the service was still good. The decor is so cute, it's decorated with all of the owner's son's old toys (who the restaurant is named after). Such an original and unique concept, I truly loved it. This was our first dinner during our trip, and it set the bar REAL high. I can't wait to come back!! read more

This place is over hipped. The wait staff are great but the food is so so. Flavours were good but the selection and tastes were odd. The chips for the guacamole were over salted like they were store bought and the guacamole had almost no avocado for 10 euro. From the 5000 other restaurants I will not be returning. read more

It was okay. I'm mad at Kim kardashian for making me want to come here for the best churro ever. The churros come with this dark chocolate sauce and sugar on the side which makes absolutely no sense. Very expensive for small portions. Food was okay at best but nothing to rave about. Had to text for a reservation and they gave us a time limit of when we had to leave. read more

Excellent restaurant! Good food and well-trained staff! Definitely will visit it next time I come back to Paris.

Best burger, mac and cheese excellent as well. Loved the vibe. Super cute, low key place in the best part of Paris

Worst customer service ever. Small dirty place. A RAT ran over my foot as I was eating and the server was like oh it's nothing. I'm not going to lie the only good thing there is there burger and they sell out quick. I've tried other things on the menu and they're all tasteless and the portions are very small. If it weren't for Kim Kardashian saying that this restaurant had the best burgers they wouldn't be as popular as they are. read more

Lovely food spent my birthday here - the burgers are tasty and the mac and cheese heaven - a must when visiting Paris

The staff did everything they could to accommodate a late arrival, adding chairs and squeezing us in at a fully booked small venue. The food is amazing at this little hideaway. Well worth a visit, and I would book in advance to ensure you get a table. Best nights meal I had in a 7 day stay in Paris. read more

Food and service were excellent. Lots of great dishes to try. They were very accommodating to those of us that don't speak French. You should try to get a reservation or show up a few minutes before they open. read more

To start, this is my first ever yelp review which really highlights how egregious this experience was. First, Ferdi's food is great. This review is specifically about the service and just general treatment of people at the restaurant. I went with my girlfriend at opening time (630pm). We tried to get a reservation but they never responded to our texts. We were seated but told there was a reservation after us so we needed to leave by 8pm. Ok, no problem at all. We order and notice pretty early on that the food takes a while. Again, no problem. It even says on their door that good food takes time so totally understandable. Tables around us consistently complained about the poor service but we joked that it literally says on their door it will take awhile so why complain? Since we noticed food was taking a while and we wanted to respect that we needed to leave at 8pm, we placed an order for churros at 720pm prior to even receiving our main dish. This was the entire reason my girlfriend wanted to go to ferdi. When we eventually get our food, we ask about the churros at the same time. Our waiter then informs us that we can't have them bc it's too late and we need to leave. We explain that's why we put the order in early and she tells us that we should be lucky to be there since we didn't have a reservation. She then proceeds to yell at us from across the restaurant, make a huge scene and lie to another employee about why we hadn't left yet (she told him we didn't order them until after we got the main dish). Because of this my girlfriend left the restaurant in tears from how embarrassing it was to be screamed at across the room when the entire time we tried to be considerate of the time they asked us to leave. We had no problem with waiting but this was the worst treatment we've ever received at ANY retail or food establishment. Really sad that such a good place was ruined by such a bad experience. read more

We had planned on a visit to Ferdi from the time we thought of making Paris part of our annual vacation. Ferdi is a very (very) small restaurant that boasts a "friendly" atmosphere where you're encouraged to linger and be French about your leisurely dinner. The service was quite good, especially for Parisian standards. Our table was situated immediately adjacent the bar and cramped. Everyone who passed by, waiters and patrons squeezed by to get to their tables. Had either of us been claustrophobic we would have had a cow. Before I get to the details of the meal, I want to describe the ambiance. The bartender, nice looking gentlemen, literally four feet away from us was incessantly banging ice cubes with a wooden mallet. Makes me wonder if they sell crushed ice in Paris. The bar served also as a hostess station, cashier and everything else... Needless to say it was very busy and to us a bit annoying. Apparently though, the atmosphere is supposed this way. One can appreciate it if they were in Paris looking for some local color. The banging of ice and the small cramped spaces and the talking just made it such a loud experience. Hard to digest. My partner felt as though we were imposing on their space. I agree with him that we felt that we were intruding on an activity that would have been better off without us there. That's not the best feeling a patron to a business to have. Again, that being said, the waitresses were all very courteous and quick and efficient and had expert knowledge of the menu. Now onto the food. For starters we had the cold 8-ingredient soup which was heavy in the coriander. Very earthy, indian like soup but extremely refreshing. One of the highlights of the dinner. I ordered the mix of croquettes. Chorizo, Cod and Cheese. The chorizo was my favorite and tasted exactly as it should. The Cod was too smelly and probably should be taken off the menu. The Cheese was not memorable. For dinner we had the cheeseburger and the meatballs with small pasta. The cheeseburger that was hailed as the best burger ever by my yelper friend (you know who you are) was indeed good. My partner liked it more than I did. The meat was good, perfectly seasoned and cooked. The cheese was luscious and expertly melted. The sesame bun was okay. The quality of the ingredients were superb. I will however say this, an In-N-Out burger trumps this burger any day. So if you've read the other comments stating the same that this is the most exquisite burger in the world, those of us from California will know that it simply is not. The meatballs were very herbaceous. A mixture of greens made them taste especially Oriental and familiar to me. Like Kufte or lule kabobs. They were good. The horror to the experience however came last. The deep fried churro was nothing like what it should be. It had no soft center and was clearly extruded through a pasta machine because it just was not thick enough to really be a churro. The worst part is that it was fried in the same oil as the croquettes and god knows what else. i know this because the smell of the savory items fried in that same oil could be smelled off of my desert. This is cooking 101. Don't use old oil. And don't use oils intended for things like frying croquettes for your deep fried desserts. The smell off the churro was truly offensive. The chocolate ganache or sauce served for dipping was absolutely perfect however. Dark and thick - really quite perfect. Long story short, it was a good dining experience. Would I recommend it to anyone? Probably not. If I were to live in Paris, would I frequent it to hang out with friends? Probably not. There are plenty of places with less drama of getting a reservation that would facilitate good conversation and a satisfying meal. read more

This was probably the best burger I have ever had. My family came because we heard it was Kim Kardashians favorite restaurant, and now we know why. The restaurant is small and uniquely decorated, the host and server was very kind even if we were tourists. The burger was amazing by itself, but of course we had to order the churros, which are expensive, but amazing. Overall I recommend this restaurant to everyone, and we got seated quickly but it is a small restaurant so it would be smart to make a reservation. read more

So perfect for vegetarians and non vegetarians! The mac and cheese is a must have (and I don't even love mac and cheese!) The servers were so kind! read more

Outstanding restaurant. Read some good reviews and was a little skeptical as I'm not a Kim Kardasian fan, but the restaurant delivered. We texted our reservation and received confirmation. Then when we arrived we were seated promptly. Service was excellent and the burgers and Mac & Cheese were outstanding! I would definitely go back! read more

Funny how I never had a reservation and I tried to walk in 3 times all of it the say they are fully booked try to make a reservation and I say no thank you and they let me in. It's so pathetic how they wanna make this show and scene chill ok I agree the burger is nice but at the end it's just a burger and there's many nice burger in town. read more

Tight space best Spanish food in Paris interesting decoration good service... I liked it! Not the absolute best Spanish food but good

It's a terrible restaurant. Services are terrible. They did give us bread until we asked for. They did not even serve water. This is the worst restaurant We have ever been. read more

Simple and delicious. Really good food with a great staff who speak English and are very nice to English speakers!

Awesome experience & a very solid meal. The burger was very good but the mac n cheese (enough for 2) is phenomenal! Reservations recommended, for the for fist service to guarantee you get a burger because they do run out. Just iMessage the phone number on the website! Added bonus: we were there during Fashion Week and people were star watching outside this place. read more

Really tough to get into but delicious. Shredded beef lettuce wraps and the cheese burger were amazing.

Delicious & food, cosy atmosphere, fabulous cocktails & a charming welcome!

We were only in Paris for one night and made a reservation at L'Avenue. When walking the streets in the afternoon we walked past Ferdi and it smelled delicious! We wanted to go in for lunch but they were closed. We decided to try to get in for dinner after looking in yelp to justify that it would be a good choice. As tourists, it was very easy to make a reservation. They ask you to text them your name and what time you would like to be seated and they will confirm. We were a little early for our reservation so we took a quick walk around the block and a table was ready by the time we got back. The servers all spoke English and made us feel welcomed. The menu had French, English, and Spanish translations. We attempted to order in French but they would continue to talk to us in English. The food was delicious and we are so happy we decided to try this place out. We ordered empanadas, chicken spring rolls, and macaroni and cheese to share, as well as dessert. The margaritas were good and very strong. The restaurant is very small, but we are used to going to more intimate restaurants so this did not bother us. Definitely stop here for a meal over the "typical" Parisian spots. read more
