We were served by three people who couldn't do enough to make us feel welcome and wonderful. We ordered The beef Bourguignon Fondue with the cheese potatoes. We had the tomato and goat cheese and basil salads. A must order on both of these. A nice bottle of wine and because it was at the end of the night when we ordered some bread and they didn't have any. The waiter or I suspect the owner ran across the street to the Italian restaurant that was closing and got us a baguette. What great service we ate there the second night because it was so fabulous read more

Ordered the tartiflette which is normally a delicious Alps dish, very filling. This one had no taste. Wondered where the reblochon is coming from. Very bland. read more

I don't know what it is, but I really loved this place. The service was very good. The location is just off of Boulevard Saint Michel. I ended up eating here twice in the same day. I had the Bordeaux and the Rhone wines (by the glass), which were both pretty good. For a starter, I had the French Onion soup, which was outstanding. It wasn't smothered in cheese like you find in the U.S. It had thick crusty pieces of bread in the soup. The Roasted Chicken was pretty good too. It's one leg of roasted chicken. You get chicken, fries, and a salad with that place. The Honey Pork Ribs were okay. The pork was kind of tough, and it had a layer of fat on the top, which was not great. But you can cut the fat off pretty easily. The potato au gratin served with pork, however, was amazing. All meals are served with an outstanding French bread rolls. read more

As an American tourist in Paris, I can't say that I know what authentic French cuisine tastes like, but I can tell you when food is homemade and delicious. La Luge's restaurant front, in my opinion, isn't any different from the twenty other cafes and restaurants in the area, so it was difficult to decide on which place to sit down and eat. We have ordered the same dishes in several other businesses surrounding this restaurant and have come to find the place that does it best. They offer traditional French dishes and claim on their menu, items that are homemade (maybe three? dishes at most are marked as not homemade). My husband and I ordered from their "prix fixe" menu and got to sample each other's dishes. Highly recommended dishes- French onion soup and their lamb stew! I believe French onion soup is a dish that could easily be messed up. Their soup is perfect- not overly salted or breaded, and has good onion taste. Their lamb stew contains tender pieces of meat, potatoes, and a whole lotta flavor. They also offer fondue, which we have heard from locals, is very good. We have been here twice in our one week long visit... We will be back before we leave. read more

Food - 2/5 Service - 2/5 Atmosphere - 3/5 Prices - 4/5 This restaurant looks pretty, but the food there is not really tasty. I believe they cook the food hastily, because there are a lot of tourists in that area, and they do not really care about food quality. read more

Solid, quaint French bistro. Escargot were very tasty -- comes with a basket of baguette to dip in the buttery goodness. Mousse du chocolat was delicious, you could actually taste the chocolate! Americans, who would've thought! read more

Writing this as I am in the restaurant. The staff is less than helpful, not that they are mean, they just don't care about you. Food is below average. Just a big tourist trap. Forgot about food we ordered, stale beer, just incapable of having a smile. read more

Very good food. It was a bit hot inside the restaurant so we had to move outside. The service was good. The French onion soup was pretty good. The entrecôte was amazing as was the raclette. The chocolate mousse dessert was out of this world! read more

After a full day of walking around and exploring, we were looking for a place to eat. Walked down to one restaurant we looked up but it was packed which left us wandering the area for a place to eat. As we are walking down the street I spied this out of the corner of my eye and when I saw Raclette I practically ran down the block. Walked in and all you smell is heavenly cheese and meat! We grabbed a table, checked out the menu and decided on a bunch of different things. After seeing it on someone else's table, we ordered the fondue. I have always wanted to try fondue but for some reason I never have - strange, I know but I can honestly say I'm glad I didnt until I had the fondue from this restaurant. THIS.FONDUE.IS.THE.BIDNESS!!!!!!! 4 different types of melty gooey goodness and the bread was crusty enough to pick up the cheese and not get soggy. If I could've licked that hot ass pot I would have. Moving on the mussels in white wine - so simple and pure with lots of chopped up onion that soaked up the white wine perfectly. YUMMERS! For dinner 2 of us ordered the Raclette, 2 ordered filet mignon du porc and the other had a nice juicy steak. The Raclette was like nothing I've ever had before. This cheesy deliciousness is served with cured meats, boiled potatoes and those tiny little sour pickle like things (cannot recall the name). I kept trying to shove more food into my mouth but after a while my stomach firmly told me NO MAS! Well that was until dessert time and 3 of us decided to share a creme bruleé which was SO good and top it off with some coffee to help with digestion (we surely needed). We meant to venture back here before we returned stateside but alas it wasnt meant to be. This just gives me something to look forward to when I return! read more

9/6/15: I believe that this restaurant, though very cozy and homey, was the weakest food-wise of all the traditional restaurants we visited here. It's not that it wasn't authentic, in fact, that's probably their biggest problem--the food tastes like it was made by your average home cook. That is to say, it was edible, but only eat here if you want to taste truly traditional food at the cost of enjoyment. It is probably significant that all the French item names were followed with English, which may or may not indicate something to you. 1. Pression 50cl 7.80 EUR: This was a French beer. Sorry I don't remember how it tasted. 2. San Pellegrino 50cl 3.10 EUR: Sparkling water. 3. Verre Merlot 5.00 EUR: Sorry, cannot remember how this tasted. 4. Escargots x6 7.00 EUR: So if you're gonna get this, I hope you have tried this at home in America cause the difference is HUGE, or more exactly, the opposite--TINY. Compared to the US versions that are typically 1.5" wide or so, these are about 2/3 the size from the exterior, but the flesh is MINUSCULE. You can barely clip the meat with that tiny snail spoon, just enough to drag the rest of the pea-sized meat out. One even was unreachable--I told the waiter there was no snail in one shell, and he brought out a toothpick!!!!! SERIOUSLY. Blew my mind that he did that. Anyway, it did work. Taste wasn't great either. Sooooo.... I dunno if this is typical of French snails, but you should totally avoid this if you've had it before elsewhere. 1/10. 5. Coq au Vin (rooster stew) 13.50 EUR: The famous French dish--"rooster" in wine. Whether they used a real rooster or just chicken, I cannot say. But it didn't look too pleasant--a dark greyish blackish color. And despite the dark color, didn't really have too much taste. If you gotta try it, try it but don't expect nothing great. 3/10. 6. La Raclette Grison (with smoked and dried beef) au Lait Cru 22.00 EUR: My French friend from home told me about this traditional dish, so I had to try it. Basically it's a little like fondue, except instead of dipping in cheese, you melt the plain cheese directly above, and it drips onto your food. This version is one of many on their menu, and is the most expensive. They give you a bowl of boiled small potatoes, some vegetables, lots of slices of really good cheese appropriate for this dish, and thinly-sliced cured meat. From the description it's smoked beef--but to give you and idea, it's like ultra-dry prosciutto that's somewhat less salty. There's quite a bit, so at least the materials are somewhat worth the price difference. Taste-wise though...... I dunno if it's cause of my American palate, but it's not really my thing. I don't quite get how the cheese (though super good) enhances the flavors of the various substrates. They don't really jive together. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that Europeans would appreciate this more. But I guess if you're American, you might agree with me. Still, nothing too fancy here, so I'll just say 5/10. 7. Aventuriere 9.50 EUR: Dessert crepe. They pour some REALLY strong and harsh liquor on there and light it on fire. The liquor is horrible--but I noticed that many places in France, even the fancy expensive places, use ultra-harsh brandies to accompany desserts, so maybe it's standard. I dunno. Nevertheless, the dish is cheap crap. This one is with peaches I think, but all of it was canned! Cannot believe they just put a bunch of diced canned peaches and cream inside a crepe and sold it for nearly 10 EUR. Wtf. Anyway, it tastes like crap and we didn't eat more than a few bites. 1/10. So, some commenters have noted they liked the interior and vibes. I guess I sorta can see that. It does feel kinda cozy. The server was quite weird though, and we never really felt comfortable. Just felt off here. Food wasn't good. Service was abnormally strange. I say go elsewhere. 2/5 #french #france read more

Very good meal on a cold day. Started with The 3 cheese fondue--- perfect for 3 people. Lamb stew was so tender (and huge!). Beef stew my daughter had was perfectly seasoned. Loved the crepes. Ended with chocolate mousse. Ready for a nap! read more

La Luge was a great place to have dinner our first night in Paris! We ordered the French Onion soup, the raclette nature and finished with a creme brulee. We were seated right away and our waiter was honest about what was good (and not so good) on the menu. Also great location in the Latin Quarter! Although not our favorite meal during our weekend stay, it was definitely worth it! read more

In the Saint-Michel area it can be difficult to find good restaurants, as it is littered with tourist traps and other fast food/low quality dinners. La luge is a little gem that brings a lot to the table, for a very reasonable price, would recommend greatly, especially for the actual French dishes. Friendly staff, delicious food (check the fondues). Excellent. read more

Dang, this place was delicious. We ended up being in Paris the day they were in the World Cup final which made travel a little complicated so after we checked into our hotel and spotted this place next door we decided to give it a try and I am so glad we did! We ordered one order of the bread fondue and the canard with miele sauce (duck with honey sauce) to split. The fondue was everything you imagine it should be, creamy with a little bit of a kick to it. They served roasted bread cubes for dipping which were delicious, but we also dipped the soft, fresh bread that they served with the duck and that was an AMAZING decision. The duck was cooked perfectly and the honey sauce on top was the perfect amount of sweetness. The duck came with a side of au gratin potatoes that my husband couldn't get enough of. The servers were friendly and helpful with the menu and we enjoyed sitting outside in front of the restaurant. read more

A nice ambience but really mediocre food. Perhaps I've been spoiled by really good fondue in the past but this one was only ok. The location is quite touristy. The prices were good though. read more

Looked good on the surface, but a big miss that turned out to be for tourists looking for "French" food. Onion soup was at the low end of acceptable with mild seasoning and little cheese. Shrimp salad was all mayonnaise despite one medium size shrimp visible on top. Salmon filet was good, but served with small lettuce clipping and small portion of unseasoned rice. Chicken with fettucini was tasteless, though good portion size. Duck ala'orange was smothered in sweet sauce and otherwise had no duck flavor. Duck was served with potato au gratin. Again, no flavor, the cheese is some type of mild white cheese. Everyone left hungry and disappointed with the quality. On the positive side, dessert was acceptable and the staff was friendly and attentive throughout our meal. Chocolate/banana crepe and creme brulee were the best part of our meal. read more

My wife, daughter amd I ate dinner here aug 6 and had mixed results. My daughter had the onion soup and as reported, it was great. I Had the Salad campagne and it was good but not great. My wife ordered quiche Lorraine and it came out burnt. She's not one to complain, so ate around the burnt parts. The beef stew was very good as was the orange duck. The creme brulee candy top was excellent. Service is pretty decemt, too. read more

We ate there with some friend, and really, the food was disgusting. Three of my friends 'ate' a Tartiflette which was burnt and full of oil - INEDIBLE I took a steach of rostbeef which was more than overcooked. They put sausage on it to hide grilled but really - inedible too. Snails came from the supermarket, and I will not talk about my dessert which was suppose to be a lemon cream... We wanted to make a friend discover french dishes, all of us were dissapointed! So if you want to eat french food, even McDonald's is better! read more

Outstanding meal in Paris! Actually, this was the first good meal of our trip. We were welcomed by the host and got great English speaking service. We ordered the 12 euro price fixe and a bottle of wine. The onion soup was unbelievable...not too salty and just the right amount if onion. The roast chicken was the best tasting chicken I've ever had. The neighborhood is quite touristy but charming. I can't say enough good things about La Luge. read more

The bar is pretty low in this neighborhood, a fact I lost sight of when I was seduced by the previous multi-star ratings. Mediocre food accompanied by surly service; never again. The good news? The meal was cheap, we left not hungry, and we didn't get sick. read more

Delicious restaurant! We had the most delicious fondue (order of two portions) we are a family of 4 and it was plenty. I ordered onion soup which was good. We all had some quiche which was the best ive had here in paris. The owner was nice and helpfull with his english and spanish and he really cared about his clients. Highly reccomended if interested on trying traditional french food. read more

Meal was just okay. Nothing great. Had escargot over the mussels and then the salmon. I was pleased with the salmon. Wife was not pleased with the bacon potatoe rustica of sorts. Not that great of flavor. Servers were okay. Not enough to move it beyond three stars. read more

Average quality, very average service. Fondue not the best, seems the cheese was not to good quality. Passible but would recommend to avoid.

Absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Polite service. Not too crowded. No rush. Best meal we have had so far in Paris.
