    We went for dinner after seeing the Eiffel Tower based on a recommendation from our hotel. As we were walking by we missed the entrance and commented on how amazing it smelled where we were, little did we know it was coming from our restaurant! Upon entrance (with our 14 month old and stroller), we were greeted by a very friendly gentlemen who ran to get the door for us. We saw him get the door for just about every guest as long as he wasn't carrying dishes. It was a bit tough to get around with the stroller but they accommodated us. Ours is pretty small so be mindful of that, might want to consider not bringing one. They did not have high chairs but most places in Paris seem to not, so be aware of that as well. I forgot to take photos of my food unfortunately but did if the menu. Our 14 month old enjoyed the minestrone soup (it was the best I've ever tried), I really enjoyed the linguini ou conchegli à pail (vegetarian dishes) and my husband enjoyed the lasagne bolognese. They bring out bread and olives beforehand and have a decent wine selection. Me being pregnant and my husband not wanting much to drink, his only option was a glass of the house wine but they do have half and full bottles available. The dinner portions are a bit small so if you're hungry I recommend trying an appetizer. The prices are great, I honestly was shocked & told my husband I would have paid 3x what I did for my pasta it was so good!

    As you read this know that I used their free high speed internet to post this review! First off, we were greeted and seated right away. The service was very good compared to what we have received in London the past five days before coming to Paris. Our waiter was very attentive. The meal we ordered was perfect for two people to share. We got the American pizza and the lasagna bolognese. Everything was made to order, fresh, and warm. Our meal also included a side salad and a basket of bread. The pizza was packed with flavor! It was not soggy nor super crispy. The lasagna was creamy and flavorful as well. If your looking for some delicious meal close by the Eiffel tower stop by! Cheers!!

    My wife and I went to eat a meal here late one night because she had seen a brochure in our hotel, and she wanted to try the pesto penne pasta. The smells from outside on the street were amazing! As we walked up closer, we were greeted by this very nice gentleman. There were enough table settings to accommodate at least 20-25 people, and the interior was very colorful and filled with culture from around the world. The ambience was very comfortable. I would suggest building your own pizza as mine was amazing. The pizzas measure about 12" across and was more than enough for me. My wife did get her pasta and she loved it. I'm still eating the leftovers two days later!! All in all, this quaint little restaurant is a gem. If you're in the area you should definitely stop by for a pizza pie!

    We actually ended up coming to this restaurant after the one next door establishment seemed too cramped. Boy did we find a hidden gem. The staff is very friendly and helpful - the food delicious. I've tried both the seafood and margarita pizza as well as the pasta seafood dish. I'd recommend coming here for a chill, and uncomplicated good time.

    Stopped by to grab a quick dinner and was pleasantly surprised. The server was very helpful and nice. The food was simple but very good. For it's location, the prices were pretty wallet friendly. Overall, a very good experience!

    We visited la Gourmandise on our first night in France. We went early and it was mostly other Americans there. They provided an English menu for us and others. We enjoyed our pizza and it was in a very convenient location near the Eiffel Tower in the Rue Cler area. I also made the mistake to not specifically ask for tap water. They gave me a bottle for 3-4 EUR without asking for clarification. 2.5 stars.

    This is a charming spot very near the Eiffel Tower. Charming staff, delicious food and a relaxing atmosphere. Recommended by travel guru Rick Steve's and for good reason. Affordable and delicious with added charm!

    Excellent customer service and food. Drinks and food are reasonably priced.we had Lasagna , pizza and pasta. All tasted fantastic. Location of this place not on a main Street but food and service make it worth the visit.

    Wine, pizza, salad, and dessert!

    Great food and service. Recommended by Rick Steves of NPR. I had the campanard pizza and my GF had the Gourmandise salad. Both were delicious. We shared the tiramisu and a bottle of wine! Amazing dinner.

    I got the 4 saisons with chicken instead of ham. Perfection.

    As said by other reviewers, this place is a gem. Found in the side streets of the Eiffel Tower, this cozy Italian restaurant houses the best pizza I've ever had - and that's coming from a New Yorker! The bread was the best part, in addition to the perfect sauce to topping and cheese ratio I was in pizza heaven. Every bite I took had a never ending pulling of cheese, amazing. I will be dreaming about this restaurant until I return to Paris. Such a sweet man who runs the restaurant too!

    We found eating out every meal while visiting Paris can get very expensive , so when we spotted this pizza place down the street from our hotel, we were eager to try it! It was pretty crowded when we place d our order (to go) and while waiting outside we were served a free glass of wine! After the short wait, the really friendly staff told us our pizza and salad were ready. Great thin crust and flavor! And Nice People!

    The restaurant is very delicious and friendly. With amazing service as well if there were more stars I would definitely put some. I highly recommend this place, truly amazing. The tortalini and pizza was extraordinary and the deserts no words can explain.

    I was in the area. The owners were extremely friendly and nice. The food was very good. I had some pizza whose name I forgot but it was excellent. The only thing i am not so happy about is that they did not inform me that there are different sizes. Like for one person, it will be smaller. I got the one for 2 persons and it was a bit too much for me. :( but i will come back if i get a chance!

    Delicious salad and wine before dinner.

    Don't expect authenticate Italian food in Paris. Maybe microwave food, but I'm not sure. I had the lasagne which was strange.

    Unexpected surprises…read more Desperate to find a restaurant after my first choice was completely packed till closing. Found Le Perron and called ahead last minute to find a table. The staff here is really excellent and their care for their patrons is apparent. As a vegetarian it can be hard trying to find proper food besides pizza. Our server was extremely helpful and helped adjust menu items to a vegetarian diet. Removing fish or chicken or adding some sauce, he really made sure we had a positive experience. The restaurant is quite cozy and feels like home. Though it does seem a bit older, this just adds to its charm. All in all, I found the food to be really delicious, especially the tagliatelle which he did with sauce and mushrooms minus the meat. The flavor of the food was beautifully balanced. I would definitely recommend this tiny little place to my friends and would guess that the non-veg food is equally as tasty.

We also had a cannoli for dessert and the filling was delicious. It's definitely a nicer restaurant and has an intimate feeling to it. The decor is well done and it was an overall lovely meal.

On the other hand, it made me realize that my mother was a terrible cook. Bistro des Augustins is a small, cozy venue offering both indoor seating and terrace seating near Pont Neuf. It serves a small number of curated dishes, including a wonderfully traditional Bistro Gratin in a homey ceramic dish served piping hot with a brown crispy cheesy top, herbs, spices and chicken. You can also get it with salmon. My brothers and I only saw my mother use our gas range to light her cigarettes, sanitize needles to remove our splinters, and make s'mores during the summer months when she couldn't muster the energy to take us 'outside camping.' I mean, all she had to do was borrow a cookbook, which I'm sure were readily available from maybe a neighbor or in any local bookstore or the public library. How hard is that? I was the only kid who brought a can of tuna and his own monogrammed can opener to school every day. Every day. And mom convinced me that the tuna holster she got me for my birthday was cool and hip. I was a naive mercury-filled fool, although I did become a very fast runner in junior high school because of the tuna holster. The interior décor of Bistro des Augustins is informal and vintage bistro style - wooden tables, traditional chalkboard menus, and soft lighting - creating a relaxed and comfy ambiance. My eyes have been opened to what's possible. Thank you Bistro des Augustins for expanding my culinary horizons. Five stars.

    THE FOOD ------------------…read more= Fermier - Cheese gratin with chicken was good. Didn't blow me away, but was solid with the creaminess of the sliced potatoes and emmental cheese combined together with mixed vegetables. The cheese was very strong though, so anything else was unfortunately pretty much overpowered by it. Arrived with bread, but it DEFINITELY could use other carb options to sop it all up (e.g., rice???)! = Landais - Cheese gratin with duck. Same comment as the above, except the Landais had egg and goat cheese also mixed in with almost the same ingredients as the Fermier. THE SERVICE ----------------------- + The lone waitress, who also worked the role as greeter, cashier and bartender was friendly. + Food arrived within 10 minutes of ordering. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------------ = Small, tight restaurant. = Not many tables inside - 6 in total. + Located a few blocks away from the more touristy restaurants, towards the East, on a much quieter street. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Nada.
