    What a cute place! My husband and I were staying at a flat next door and passed Freddy's every time…read morewe came and went, and on our last night in Paris we decided to go ahead and give them a try because we appreciate good BBQ and were curious to try it in France. We each got the combo platter that allowed us to try multiple meats and sides, and I have to say that I was extremely impressed with the meat. Especially the brisket, a particular favorite of mine when it comes to BBQ. The mac and cheese was a solid side, but the coleslaw was underwhelming. As Americans, yes, we expect large portions. I've been to Europe often enough to manage those expectations pretty well, so I was also pleased when we each reached a comfortable stopping point and were able to get takeaway boxes for our leftovers. I know it's traditionally trés gauche to take leftovers from French restaurants, but I was happy to see that the trend is catching on. After all, not wasting food is a good thing, is it not? We carried those leftovers all the way to Amsterdam the next day--that's how much we wanted to finish them. We opted to sit in the terrace seating that has a suspended plank for a table so that we could people watch Rue St. Denis, a busy street in this arrondissement. It's in a great neighborhood that was vibrant and full of life, even in the wake of the pandemic. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who would like to try good Texas style BBQ in the middle of Paris.

Since we are from Texas we had low expectations but we were wrong. Freddy's BBQ Serves excellent BBQ THAT WOULD COMPETE WITH ANY IN Texas Or Tennessee! The brisket was perfectly smoked, tender and juicy! The pulled pork was fantastic and the ribs were solid! We had all the sides and loved them The two pitmasters are trained and from Texas and Oklahoma So you know they know what real BBQ is!

    Finding good BBQ in Paris is one of my quests. The Beast is a a good BBQ place to eat with great…read moredrinks, including craft beers and very rare bourbons. Prices range from 9-24 Euros ($11-27 US) for the meats, 4-5 Euros ($5-6 US) for the sides, and a lunch menu of 15 Euros ($17) for a meat, side and drink, it's a good deal for the best BBQ I've had in Paris. The first time I went, I had the pork ribs with a side of greens, and a beer. the pork ribs were tender in the center, but dry on the end, needing the delicious tomato based BBQ sauce to moisten the meat. The beef brisket was excellent, with a wonderful peppercorn crust, nice smoke, and juicy meat, good enough to eat without any sauce at all. The greens weren't bad, with plenty of pork goodness, but they needed salt and heat to make them better, unfortunately Parisian taste is not known for having any tolerance for spice, so sneak in some hot sauce if you want to perk up this side, or take it home and doctor it up. The pickles and pickled onions were excellent, with a crisp texture and vinegary bite. The baked beans were the best side I tasted, with a smokey tomato base, just slightly sweet. The decor reminds you that the owner spent some time in Texas, but fortunately there were no chainsaws in sight :)

    Wow! I'm glad I came here. I've never been to Texas but I've always wanted Texas BBQ, never…read moreimagined I'd be eating it in Paris lol. First off Tom our server was awesome at explaining the history of the restaurant and the variety of the menus and drinks.The brisket is so tender and different from the brisket in California and so was the pulled pork and chicken. The sides of pickles and onions we're so flavorful that they changed the course of the dry meats into something magical. Our server then gave us a free plate of sausages and baby ribbs to sample and I must admit that the ribs we're the best I ever ate! I wish I would have ordered them first. I highly recommend someone from the states to come eat at The Beast to get their BBQ fix

    We stumbled upon this cozy restaurant after striking out at the nearby Pink Mamma (we went an hour…read moreand a half before closing and they were fully booked for tables of two!). We're glad that we ended up eating here. The meal was delicious and reasonably priced, and the service was friendly (tres gentil) and took mercy on our meager French skills by conversing with us mostly in English. The steak was superb, although I'd caution American visitors that medium rare in France (and in Europe more generally) tends to be on the rare side. The fries were equally scrumptious, and it's harder to pull off a good crisp on a relatively thick-cut potato. Finally, my wife's ribs were very good, and were more refined than is typical of American-style barbecue, which looks a little messier and has a smokier flavor. Great place for dinner before seeing a show at the nearby Moulin Rouge!

After a brief and incredibly lucky search this popped up, Flesh, and with an opening for 8pm. Good luck trying to score a steak dinner in Manhattan on a Saturday night with zero reservations. That aside, we were sitting in the oldest bar in Europe and confirmed our reservation not knowing what we were getting into with very little homework done on the place. After a couple of drinks and wandering through Paris we grabbed a light lunch hoping tonight's dinner was just what we were looking for. A short Uber ride through some very narrow streets we arrived on a one way street that seemed to be the up and coming neighborhood for food and drinks. Once inside we were not seated in the best spot but to their credit this place was tiny, as most hole in the wall restaurants are in this city. After a short wait drinks were served and our orders taken. The place seemed to me to be a sort of upscale BBQ joint, with of course good beers and mixed drinks along with wine. The staff were young and energetic and on point with any questions or requests. Keep this is mind, your in Paris so there really isn't such a thing as a cheap meal, but if you find the right place it's worth every dollar. Anyway my girl and I both ordered steaks with taco starters and delicious sides. All told $175 for one app, two entrees and four drinks. Yes this was probably the most expensive upscale BBQ place we've been to, but both left with a belly full of very yummy food. Thank you to the staff and cooks for a last meal in Paris.

Found it on The Fork (or La Fourchette) app from trip advisor with great local reviews and 30% off a la carte items. So we ordered 12 wings, 3 sides and 2 cokes and had a delicious dinner for €22 which is hard to beat. At 7 p.m. on Sunday the first 3 customers were actually English speakers like us (well honey especially...) but the owner speaks very good English and was able to explain everything in detail. Actually 7 p.m. is opening time for dinner at this place on Sunday as people in France tend to arrive later for dinner. The wings are good French raised chicken that is grilled not fried. It's good chicken, you can tell, because bones are well attached to the flesh, unlike the cheap chicken you can find in the US where everything falls apart when you cook it. They give you a bunch of sauces to pick from, and that they grill with. We picked a different sauce for every couple wings and stayed on the mild side. All excellent. The sides were actually very delicious as well. The french fries with deliciously crispy. The quinoa and mixed grain salad was super fresh in the best part was the assortment of grilled vegetables from bell peppers to eggplants and zucchinis. The only downside were the tables that are really small. The wood boards on which they serve everything takes over most of the table, especially if you pick the wings or full chicken. I think that if you order chicken tenders on a stick it's a lot easier to eat and less messy but I like wings.
