    Liked the food but the garlic bread was delicious. There were a good amount of vegetarian options for our family. We came without a reservation and had immediate seating! Very close to the Eiffel Tower.

    Very close to the Eiffel Tower. Perfect spot to take a break from exploring the city. The food was tasty, the service was very pleasant. We ate here twice during our stay and enjoyed both visits. The area is nice, you can catch a tiny glimpse of the Eiffel Tower while enjoying your meal. Can't go wrong with the pasta and pizza but we also tried steak, and roasted chicken with frites. We enjoyed our meal.

    I always hate writing a bad review, but do feel a bit obligated to warn people about my experience. First, I should say the ambiance at night is especially nice and the location, being a stones throw from the Eiffel tower, is convenient for tourists. The service was also good. The staff speaks multiple languages catering to tourists from all over the world. It follows then, that we saw was nothing but families of tourists crammed on to a terrace eating overpriced food all hoping for an authentic Parisian dining experience. Of which, this was not. I found the prices to be extremely high for the quality of faire offered, even for a tourist trap -over $11 USD for a glass of coke! I've travelled extensively all over the world and Firmine sets the record for the most I've ever been charged for a coke -including airports and amusement parks! The price of the coke unfortunately is representative of the rest of the menu. Exceptionally overpriced, for average (at best) food. I feel this restaurant caters specifically to people who do not check the menu carefully... as the management has confirmed in recent replies to other reviews, in which they brazenly dismiss other complaints saying, "that's why we have the menu on display outside". Oof, brutal! Just for funsies, I'd like to ask Firmine Managment to reply to this review and tell me of any restaurant, that charges more than $11 USD for a coke -any restaurant, anywhere in the world. On to the food, I had the roasted chicken. This was a tiny, tiny chicken. Its like the size of a KFC chicken -but smaller. But that's ok, since my jaw got tired from chewing it before i could finish (see picture). It was very dry, bland and extremely tough -like low sodium chicken jerkey. It reminded me of when I once tried to cook a raw chicken breast in the microwave and set the timer for waaaaay toooo long. On the plus side tho, they serve it with a small cup of drippings, which u can use to rehydrate the chicken a little before putting it in ur mouth, but once that runs out, or ur jaw gives out, meal over. I would comment on my girlfriend's order, but I feel I've already spent too much time on this place... as you should feel too having read this review. In sum, there are much better options in the vicinity. But as not to be a complete Debbie Downer, I'll end this review on a positive note, the 4 year old at the table next to us semed to really enjoy the pizza, as he incessantly screamed out "PIZZA! PIZZA! NOM NOM NOM!" while running around the tables. Lovely.

    Great waiter who is a very busy guy.

    Very Parisian street cafe. Delicious fluffy dough has & mushroom pizza. Sitting inside street edge seat. Vibrant city life.

    French onion soup

    We stopped here after visiting the Eiffel Tower. We really enjoyed this place and it felt authentically Paris. We had pizza and pasta. The French onion soup was absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

    The food was amazing. Service was good. Food got here fast and the area is pretty good as it's close to the Eiffel tower . Great ambiance overall.

    This was a Yelp recommendation so we tried it. It is conveniently located near the Eiffel Tower so it was a quick walk from the park. The staff was incredibly friendly and eager to serve. The ambiance was quaint with lots of festoon lighting and convenient street seating. We chose to sit inside out of the damp. Our server recommended our drinks and some of our entrees. We started with a couple of speciality drinks, a Chambord Royal and a Red Basil (gin drink). Service was incredibly fast and before you knew it we had our starters - French onion soup served in small copper pots. It was very flavorful! Our entrees were four cheese linguine, a Parma pizza and flank steak with fries. All were very good. The pizza tasted wood fired and the crust was well browned. The flank steak was a bit tough but clearly was charcoaled. It was very tasty. The linguine was also quite good but was so huge a portion we could not finish it. This was a great surprise and a nice meal.

    I absolutely love this place! The service is wonderful and the ambiance is great! The whole restaurant staff should be given a raise. The food is amazing and the restaurant sits at a nice corner.

    We ate here twice during our recent stay in Paris. This cafe is located 1/2 mile from the Eiffel Tower. If you've been to Paris, it's a "short walk." Our first trip was for Pizza and Beer. Note, when in Paris, a small beer is about 8 ounces and a large is 15 ounces. I should have asked to see what a large looked like; close to a 32 ounce mug! Still, the beer was cold and the Pizza was awesome. The second trip was also great. I had a Chicken Caesar and my Bride had a Salad (name I can't pronounce.) Worth the effort if you are near the tower.

    Definitely would return to this beautiful cafe. The French onion soup is to die for. The chicken bbq pizza was delicious so much flavor.

    This restaurant was sooo good! The best bbq chicken pizza I have ever tasted. Everything was so fresh and delicious. The customer service provided was good and fast. The atmosphere was cute and comfortable. I wish this place was down the street from me. I definitely recommend and would return.

    Elmer G.

    The ambiance was good, the place was not too loud, but it felt more of a touristic vibe around it. The food was great, I had the ravioli asalmon with a white sauce. It was really good. Drinks were ok, but the service was pretty darn good. The waiter was helpful and really tried to help us as best as possible.

    1,0 L d'eau Vittel coûte 12 euros, ce qui n'est pas raisonnable. Les autres aliments, l'environnement et les services sont corrects.

    Le Comptoir de la Gastronomie - An amazing French onion soup...

    The most life- changing experience with French cuisine. This is what French culinary dreams are…read moremade of. Get the appetizer grilled foie gras with side of greens, you won't regret it. The richness of the flavor and the texture which is not reminiscent of the traditional roasted duck or foie gras, but rather a much more like a luxurious and indulgent version. We enjoyed our dinner on the outside of the restaurant after about a 20-30 minute wait. The bone marrow had the best flavor I've experienced for the dish. However, it is definitely overshadowed by the rich flavor of the foie gras. This experience was unforgettable, with our view of Parisian streets on a brisk, April night. We even came back on our last night, but didn't realize the hours on Google maps was for the deli. The restaurant closes earlier, before 9:00 PM. This meal got us thinking about Paris in a positive light, and we hope to be able to come back to eat the amazing dishes again!

    This place was a huge letdown. They had a cute little artisanal market on the front left of the…read morerestaurant. They had a number of goods to choose from and I ended up buying a few things for souvenirs. As for the actual restaurant, they had a number of delicious sounding items on their menu. Our server was very attentive to us and helped us decide on our dinner orders. Similar to the other restaurants though. After our food was delivered, it was far in between when we were checked on again. And after dessert it took even longer for our server to bring the bill. Overall, the food was a letdown. I do not exaggerate when I say that the frog legs just tasted like slightly flavored water. My friend's ravioli had a fairly decent flavored sauce but the pasta was a bit chewy. My friend's duck breast was pretty tough; I had noticed the table next to us also ordered it and they seemed to have trouble finishing/cutting theirs as well. As for my steak with foie gras, well the steak was once again tough and the foie gras was weirdly stringy. It was soft for the most part but there were parts that were tough and stringy. Maybe that's a section that's generally separated in the preparation process and it was missed? In any case it was disappointing. What wasn't disappointing was dessert though; perfectly sweet and balanced.
