This was a great little spot…read more Small dining area downstairs with a little spiral staircase leading up to 2 more small dining rooms. The staff was all very friendly and inviting and were happy to recommend their favorite dishes to us. My wife ordered a French onion soup and one of their famously large salads, which are served in these big bowls. I decided to try the chef's special, which was a beef tenderloin a la rossini (truffle sauce and foie gras). I'm not typically a foie gras fan, but I figured since we're in Paris that I'd give it a shot. I'm very glad I did because it was absolutely delicious. The steak melded perfectly with the truffle sauce and fois gras. This was all served with potatoes au gratin, and blanched green beans. Everything was perfect. I also ordered two large beers. A Grimbergin blonde and a Kronenbourg ale. I love how both beers were served in their respective brand's glasses. Such a nice touch. For dessert, we ordered an Apple Tarte Tartin, upon a recommendation from one of the staff. It was light, sweet, and served with some ice cream and créme fraîce. This was such a great dinner all around. Great food, great vibes, which all lead to a great evening. Would definitely recommend!

I admit, I'm not very adventurous with food and don't care for traditional French food, so I had the grilled salmon, which was delicious. My husband, who does enjoy traditional French food, had the cassoulet with beans, sausage, and duck confit. He absolutely LOVED his meal and said it was probably the best meal he had while in Paris. And to complete our meal, we finished off with crème brûlée -- yum! [Yelp collections: Europe 2024; Paris, France]

We had a big family lunch at Pink Mamma a few weeks ago after a Sunday morning visit to Montmartre…read more I booked the table about a month in advance, and it was easy to do, even for a party of 11. There was no back-and-forth prior to our lunch, we just made the reservation online and showed up. Pink Mamma is part of the Big Mamma family, a popular French Italian restaurant group (Italian restaurants, French group) with locations across Europe. This one occupies four stories in a flatiron-shaped building in Pigalle, the exterior tiled in a bright flamingo pink. Our table was on the top level, a sunny space with a cheerful greenhouse aesthetic, sheer curtains over walls of windows, vines lacing through ceiling beams and chandeliers. We glimpsed the other floors on our way up, and every space seemed to be decorated to the max, including the stairwells. I guessing this place plays well on social media. Our lunch got off to a bumpy start when we were presented with a family style menu and told it was the only option for a party of our size. It came with starters, pizzas, pastas, all good stuff, for €55 per person. This seemed fair, except that the children were also counted, and we'd have to pay €55 each for my six-year-old (who eats nothing), my three-year-old (who eats like a three-year-old), and my niece, a two-year-old in a high chair (who, in fairness, eats as much as some adults). A lot of money, and likely a lot of wasted food. Our server was this Italian woman who showed everything on her face, and we could all tell she was annoyed that we questioned this policy, and annoyed further that she had to go ask management about our kids. It felt a little adversarial, and her attitude persisted when she came back with the regular menus. We ended up ordering a big a la carte spread, and it was plenty of food and much cheaper than €55 a head. Thankfully, our waiter softened up once the meal got going, and she was quite nice to us for most of our visit. This was a relief, especially towards the end, when my six-year-old threw up all over the floor. It was mostly water, and I cleaned it up, but both our server and another employee showed up and offered their help and kindness. Traveling with kids is an adventure, and I did indulge in a cocktail with lunch. I got The Big Pisco and it was delicious, a refreshing, summery drink with Cuatro Gallos Pisco Puro Italia, apricot liqueur, fennel, and lime. My husband got the French Touch, a cool gin drink with Tanqueray, elderflower, raspberry, cucumber, lemon, and R. Gerbaux l'Epicurien champagne. The food was great. We started with a few orders of the melone, prosciutto, and mozzarella appetizer, as well as the insalata Siciliana. The melon, Parma prosciutto, and buffalo were high quality and delicious, drizzled with olive oil and a little black pepper. The salad was fresh, green, and flavorful, with Sicilian broccoli, green beans, rocket, roasted zucchini, and tzatziki. There was also a complimentary basket of good, crusty bread. We shared a bunch of pasta, doubling up on the spaghettoni alla Vittorio, the mezze rigatoni alla Gricia, and the fazzoletti ricotta e spinaci. The spaghettoni was a nice al dente pasta with Datterini tomato sauce and parmesan. The rigatoni was rich and satisfying, with salsa cacio pepe, guanciale, and black pepper. The fazzoletti were fresh pasta filled with lemony ricotta and spinach, tossed in a sage butter sauce, with parmesan on top. We got two kinds of pizza for the table, the Mammargherita and the Spicy Calabrese. I actually booked Pink Mamma in large part because it had pizza, which I thought would be good for the kids a few days into our trip. Too bad my son couldn't enjoy it, because it was quite tasty, if a little on the wet, floppy side. The margherita came with a great San Marzano DOP tomato sauce, plus mozzarella and parmesan. The Spicy Calabrese had the same sauce and mozzarella, along with 'nduja, spicy pork salsiccia, caramelized red onion, and tarragon. This wasn't a perfect experience, but we had a lovely lunch despite the hiccups. I'd recommend Pink Mamma if you're looking for a stylish restaurant near Montmartre.

This place is a gem!…read more We were in Paris for two weeks and this place was so good, we had it twice. Located in Montmartre, this cozy 'cave' sits upon a busy street. As an American, you must get used to the slow pace that most restaurants run here. But, I've taken a sincere liking to slowing down and enjoying my food rather than eating 'on the go.' Order the beef bourguignon. It is amazing. Comes in a steaming pot with buttery mashed potatoes. Also tried the foie gras, escargots, and frog legs. Haven't had a dish that wasn't up to par. This place deserves more attention. A must visit if you're in the area.

Must say that the outdoor seating area is very unassuming / cause of suspicion (zero people around,…read moreno decorations, broken mirror). But given other raving reviews, we sat and ordered the beef bourguignon and salmon steak. The mash potatoes were very good and the beef was tasty, though a bit dry and had a bit much too tough gristle. The salmon was poached and cooked perfectly. If we came again, I'd like to try more of the menu to get a better / fuller experience. Overall, I'd give it a 3.5 - 4.

This place is HEAVEN…read more If I didn't have to count service, they'd get 5 stars. We were really hungry and so excited to find this establishment. Everything looked so amazing, we really had a hard time deciding what to get. Tomato, Onion, Cucumber & Feta Salad (Two Orders) Octopus Salad Vegetarian Stuffed Eggplant Spinach Puff Pastry Stuffed Squid My favorite was the octopus salad, feta cheese salad and vegetarian stuffed eggplant. Everything had really great fresh flavor. The stuffed squid was good, but had more rice filling than I prefer. The spinach puff pastry would be best served right out of the oven, but it had been sitting out for awhile. In addition to prepared foods and salads, they also have grocer items, olives, cheeses and a variety of nuts and bulk items. The prices are based on weight. Overall reasonable since the quality is good. The reason I wasn't pleased with the service is for the following reasons: 1. The employee was very cold immediately upon walking in. 2. Our non-French friend who is currently residing in France, married to a French native and has been learning the language for some time interpreted for us and did all the ordering. The employee was a little critical of how she pronounced things and it really irked me. Also, our friend called the spinach cheese puff pastry (which we are familiar with it being Spanakopita) and she corrected us in a very rude way. 3. The shop was not closed, nor was it going to be closed anytime soon. They have several tables in the back dining room. Nothing fancy, just basic tables and chairs. She wouldn't allow us to sit at the tables to eat our food. She said it was only for "lunch" and at this point it was a little past lunch. Like 2ish. We found this a little odd since no one was occupying the tables. So instead we had to walk around the neighborhood with our bags of food until we could find a bench or table to sit at. Also silly, because we ended up spending so much here. If, I am ever in the area again. I would love to be able to try their spicy octopus salad. I regretted not getting it this time around!
