We arrived and they were totally packed. We kind of got on a waiting list and within 10 minutes or so we were seated. The tables are kind of small which makes it interesting for us. We like a lot of tastes. While looking over the menu a plate of peppercinis and olives arrived. They were tasty. We ordered the Tabouli, Kibbe, Hummus with Zaatar, Rikakat(a fried roll with herbs and cheese), Falafel, and Pita. Everything was absolutely delicious. Growing up eating some of the best Kibbie(Kebbe), making some down right good kibbie, I have to say this was the best we have ever had. I still dream about it and it has been a couple of months. The tabouli was extremely fresh and had the perfect amount of marinating time. As we sat and talked about the food we called over our server and just had to order more KIBBE!!! Arrived quickly. Food was outstanding. Service was great. We wanted to return but the weather was just too bad. We will be back in May 2025. Highly recommend.

Their food is Lebanese and Middle eastern staples- a good collection of Mezzes (Hummus, Babaghanoush, Moutabel, Tabbouli, etc) with pita bread. We tried a 3 course meal which came with mezzes initially followed by a HUGE portion size main course (I had a halloumi cheese grilled wrap) and then desserts. In hindsight, the quantity was large and we should have ordered lesser- but food was top notch. There are also ample Vegetarian options across the board. Nice place, thank you to everyone for their service and tasty food. Will be back here again when we visit Paris

They loaded me up not sure if I could take it. It was excellent. The food is excellent. The location is a busy fun street. The restaurant is tight, cramped, and the eating area is kind of dirty. Let's just say when their busy the four seats inside are rarely cleaned. It's the Latin Quarter. You're meant to get the food and go strolling. But, I was tired. That said, I would go back. There are two great Shawarma shops in this street. You can't go wrong with either of them.

Actually, there are two lines, one for take away (on the left) and one for sit down. Both lines are just as long, but the take away moves much faster. Fairly organized. For the take away side, an employee takes orders while you wait in line, to expedite the process. (If you are from CA, think of an In and Out burger drive thru business model). Overall the food is good and reasonably priced. And great advertising seeing everyone walk around with your "sandwiches." Ambiance - Crazy busy. Both inside and outside. But plenty of employees (again both inside and outside). Fairly organized considering the volume. Service - Good. Price - Reasonable.10-15 Euros for a pita sandwich. $11.60 to $17.50 US.

On first pass, there was a line at the take-out window. When I returned to dine in, there was a rather significant line there as well. My party of 2 was apparently the magic number because they had us stand in the front of the line and we were seated inside almost immediately. The food here is served so rapidly that I seriously doubt anyone needs to wait long as there's a constant turning of tables. Schwarma and Fallafel and whatever else we consumed here was so fresh, delicious, and satisfying that I tried coming back here again the night before leaving Paris. Unfortunately for me, they close early on Shabbat, so I had to be satisfied with my single visit. Outstanding experience, delicious food as over 2,000 reviews already attested to.

My wife and I took a trip to Barcelona and Paris on a Thanksgiving holiday over eight days and our last night's dinner was at Bagalan. There was truly nothing that could have been improved upon! Our only wish is that this review could post on all review platforms simultaneously:-) The restaurant atmosphere was fantastic and the clientele was obviously full discerning diners with a casual but upscale bent. Dianne was our combination sous chef and server at the bar/counter (this is the way to go)! She was talented, both in her obvious skills as a chef, but also with her attentiveness as a server. She was an excellent multitasker, young, attractive, fun and asked us just enough questions to ascertain exactly what we would enjoy from their diverse and sophisticated Mediterranean menu. She was an impressive representative amongst a group of obviously well-curated staff. The food was fantastic and represented well the ambitious chef de cuisine, whom we also met and found to be quite enthralling. Finally, the sommelier picked the perfect wine pairings to go with the meal. He was a true professional and described in detail the attributes of several options we might enjoy with our meal. We selected a bottle of amazing Burgundy at his prompting once he learned of our order that went ideally with the early courses, followed by a selection of fantastic wines that paired perfectly with our main course! If you find yourself in Paris (district 1), love great food and are open to a well-rounded dining experience, let the team at Bagalan lead you to an evening you'll not soon forget!
