My boyfriend and I don't speak any other language than english and we had no issue finding this place. The food was delicious and so was the wine. We got escargot, lamb chops and rib steak. Everything was spectacular! The issue we had here was our food took forever! From the time we ordered it to when we got it took 45 minutes, while everyone around us who sat after us seemed to be getting their food extremely quick. Aside from the wait everything was great I wish I had more lamb chops right now! read more

I've had the pleasure of dining here twice now, and both times have been a great experience. The first time, my crew and I happen to be walking in the neighbourhood and came across the quaint square this place is located. It was a balmy summer evening and we decided to sit outside. The food here is simple and prepared with care. They really spotlight on the qualities of the ingredients instead of masking them with lots of sauces. My burrata and tomato salad was fresh and refreshing on that hot day. That was last summer and I still remember how good it was. I took some crew members here again last week and everyone was thoroughly satisfied. The servers here are very friendly and will be happy to speak in English, describe in detail not only the specials of the day but pretty much most of the menu. One girl even went to the extent of describing the dishes as they came out of the kitchen. " You see that there? That's the lamb knuckle! Our specialty, it's delicious!" The menu is big enough to cater to many tastes, but not so much that you can't decide what to eat. The price point is reasonable for the neighbourhood and it's convenient that it's continuous service. A word of warning for the ladies: If you take a picture, the adorable waiters will photobomb your shot. 13/100 read more

Best duck breast we had on our short Paris days. It really looked like a steak, and i have never seen duck cut this way. The scallope potato is tres bien! Smooth and creamy. We had the best server, ever in Paris! He took back the pate that was a mistake and miscommunication. Had the best ice cream by Bhertillion (spell?), chocolate noir, tasted like a melted truffle ice cream, so smooth, rich and you can tell the chocolate is very high quality cocoa. Im very pleased with this place, food and service. Cest magnifique! read more

The service at this place was the worst....we walked for a bit to get here and it was cold...when we arrived we were not aware that reservations were required. When we told the guy at the door that we had no reservations he was very rude and told us no go out to the other door...of course we didn't really understand but asked another guy if we could sit on the patio, he said yes but we were turned off from that point....the food was pretty good but the service was lacking read more

This is a great neighborhood restaurant. They have English versions of the menu and our waiter spoke English and was very helpful in recommending things to eat. The food was magnificent and portions were sufficient for any hungry person. The wine was fine, but there is no bad wine in France based upon personal observation. The four of us all had entrees, desert and wine for 110€. Good spot, a bit hidden away off the beaten path on a neighborhood circle. read more

Terrible food and service. It took forever to be seated and when we were seated the waiter clearly waited us slowly. It was a dirty restaurant. Cutlery noticebly was minimally washed and food was grizzly. Would not recommend especially because there are numerous similar French bistros around. read more

After a long day of travel, Yelp led us to this lovely little cafe near our hotel. For someone who's never been to Paris, this place is bubbling over with Parisan charm in a perfect setting off a picture-perfect neighborhood park. We had a lovely waiter who was friendly, made a few great recommendations, and had no problem with our lack of French speaking ability. The leg of lamb and veal stew were fantastic. The veal in a light, but rich cream sauce was a pleasant surprise. Sopping up the leftovers with the baguette was a guilty pleasure that I would gladly repeat nightly if I lived nearby. If you happen to be staying near here, do not hesitate to stop in, and don't be put off by the wine list. Let them pick for you. They didn't lead us astray, and they kept it inexpensive without asking. read more

Not on the Main Road and always busy from morning until late night. It is great food !!! read more

American approved! La Maison is certainly a gem in the heart of Paris. Located very close to the Arc De Triomphe, this restaurant stands out against the others with similar names with exceptional service and top notch food. After looking through the photos on Yelp, my family decided to visit the restaurant for dinner. Arriving at 10:45, the place appeared to be on the closing end of the shift but that did not hinder our meal one bit. The menus were written with a script style of font, making it somewhat difficult to read, but after showing our waiter the photos he made all the right suggestions. I had the Sirloin Steak with fries and it was the BEST steak I have had in Paris. When ordering it "medium," I typically am I bit worried (in Paris) due to multiple previous experiences with the meat arriving too rare. This was not the case at La Maison, my steak was perfect, I am talking slightly crispy on the outside and a small hint of pink on the inside... No blood whatsoever. It came with a pepper sauce which I highly recommend, and the portion was very acceptable. The service was excellent, upon arrival we were seated immediately which was nice because that does not happen to frequently in this city. Our drinks came out quickly and our food even quicker. Every person at my table was surprised at how fast our food arrived, and the quality of the dishes (two steaks, one chicken & one fish dish) all perfectly done. We concluded our dinner with a creme brulee or what they list as the vanilla bourbon dessert. Overall with the exceptional service and food, all the way down to the dessert, this place is GREAT. Do not waste your time looking for another place to eat, as they offer salads (for those looking for alternatives to meat) which looked excellent. They also offer a nice assortment of wine which my girlfriend enjoyed. read more

Excellent service. The waiter brought English menus, having assumed we'd need them, but was kind enough to ask if we wanted French or English menus. He was super helpful in explaining the specials. The food was fantastic. read more

Arrived to Pairs 4 hours behind schedule and we were starving by the time we checked into hotel. Visited this restaurant based on previous reviews and we were not disappointed. The staff was very friendly, and the food was excellent! portions were plentiful and the food was freshly prepared. We started with the pressed avocado starter which was ripe, creamy, and tasty. My husband had the ribeye and I the duck breast. Both were cooked medium rare and neither of us can complain. Prices are reasonable given location. We would consider revisiting before our trip is over. read more

The ambiance is nice and the food is terrific. The portions are very big so order accordingly! After the escargot I could barely finish half of my salad and tartare. Everything tasted excellent and was prepared as I would expect. The only problem was that my server seemed to be a little bit green; he made some rookie mistakes like not bringing cutlery or water. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you're looking for some authentic French cuisine in a quiet, laid-back atmosphere... read more

I really enjoyed this place. The waiters were friendly, fun and helpful. The food was great They spoke English well and the menu had a many options for food and beverage. Tight seating (typical in Paris), but very relaxed atmosphere. People dressed from business suits to casual. I will definitely eat here again based on this one experience. read more

La Maison saved the day twice. This was my last super on my vacation and after many excellent meals the best prepared beurre Blanc on white fish will last in my memory for a lifetime. The sides were lovely vegetables just right. We got a side of their very skinny fries wonderfully prepared. The next morning was Mothers day in Paris. I was longing for my last Cafe and Croissant experience before jumping on the airport bus back to CDG and this being Sunday all the patisseries were closed. So glad they were open. Excellent service right at home feel. Lots of happy customers enjoying themselves. read more

We wanted to try French food again. Followed Yelp reviews. The service here was very good. The waitress was very nice. I loved the escargots, very tasty with the garlic butter. The medium rare rib steak was ok. This is the 2nd time I had rib steak in as many days, not tender at all here in Paris. My wife had the chicken. The chicken was crispy and tasty and tender. read more

They pan fried a frisbee and called it a ribeye. The whole thing was gristle from start to finish. The haricot-vert and mushrooms were soggy and old. Service sucked also. What a tremendous disappointment. If I could give it zero stars I would. read more

The service was 5 Star. Perhaps the best I have had in Paris. Super friendly staff. They do team serving so we interacted with several people from the team and they were all outgoing, friendly, happy to speak English and made us feel welcome. The food was great and reasonably priced. I would go hear again just for the staff. Favorite part of dinner was dessert excellent Creme Brulee. If your staying in the area be sure to stop by. read more

Went with the recommendation from some friends. Fantastic experience. Waitstaff was very attentive offering recommendations from the menu. Had a beef filet with a red wine sauce. Finished with the tiramisu that was awesome. Will stop by again next time. read more

Excellent experience. It is a quintessential Parisian street cafe with excellent service and food. The waiter was super kind and patient with us as we spoke only simple French pleasantries and he was very attentive, in a French way. We ate escargot (for the first time!) lamb chops and mashed potatoes, salmon steak with ratatouille, and a crab appetizer and wow was it all so good! Wine and beer was great too! Nothing but commendation and appreciation for such a wonderful experience. read more

Friendly staff. Veal stew- was disappointing as I had high expectations from previous posts. The sauce was good (nothing too extraordinary) but veal was really dry making the dish mediocre. read more

Duck was good. Though I'm not a French connoisseur, we tried the stew and lamb chops. They were just okay. Highlight was the service. Our waiter was great, and recommended the perfect wines to pair with each meal. read more

Excellent meal, great service at this neighborhood cafe convenient to Hyatt Regency and Le Meridian hotels. The veal stew was light and flavorful. The chicken with rice was nicely seasoned without being too unusual. The desserts were homemade - I recommend both the tiramisu and chocolate mousse. Great atmosphere, reasonable prices, overall terrific experience. read more

I never write reviews. The food here is magnificent. We had the duck and swordfish special. Great service! No hesitation recommending this place. read more

My favorite restaurant in Paris (ok, next to the Bristol). I travel to Paris for work a few times a year and stay in the 17th close to the Arc de Triomphe. Eating at La Maison is a must do for me each time I'm there. It is a very typical bistros with great food. It is known, however, for its "cocottes," which are dishes prepared and served in small Dutch oven like pots. The last I had was veal with tomatoes and olives with fresh thyme. Yum. The wine list is nicely simple and varied; you'll find something you like at the price you want to pay. The service is also good; the waiters are politely edgey; they make fun; and they are kind to Americans, so don't worry even if you don't speak French. The restaurant is a little hidden in a quiet area not far from the Palais de Congress and not too far from the Arc. It is definitely worth the walk (or Metro) to get there. read more

The food here was fantastic! I ended up going twice, once for lunch and once for dinner. My favorite was the pan fried chicken with pasta and tomato sauce. The outdoor seating was very nice. The waiters were friendly and accepted my poor French skills. read more

The staff made sure that we could have a nice tabla away from kids or crowd. Great drinks: they know how to make a real Spritz! We asked for cold cuts for appetizers with our drinks tapas style. Nice service easy smiling ! The plat du jour was an exceptional duck ! Magret de canard incredibly good. The lighting is bright yet intimate. Good table choice. Great wine. Recommended out of the beaten path but close to Etoile and Place St Ferdinand is xharming. read more

Excellent food and wine! The staff were very helpful and friendly! Has to be the best Duck dish we both have ever tried!!! Would thoroughly recommend! read more

Delicious recipes and obviously fresh ingredients. Nice selection of wines and friendly service.

First of all, it was not easy to find this restaurant. If you only speak English, don't go here. The energy and vibe were off. I think we were not treated the best because we didn't speak French. None of the servers asked how we were doing or how the food tasted. The bass were mediocre, and they were out of mashed potatoes. I really wanted the French creamy potatoes. It's weird having grilled fish with fries. The combination didn't sit well with me. It is not worth for the cost, which is about €19. My brother and I spent €41.20. I don't see how this restaurant has more than 1 star. It's not even worth it. The service was shit, and the server was decent. She did her best to speak English. I'm not dogging on this restaurant cause they didn't speak English. I'm amazed that anyone liked this mediocre facsimile of American cuisine. I would have done myself a favor eating McDonalds or Five Guys. read more

Ok, so we showed up late (10:45) on a Saturday night just 3 minutes before the kitchen was going to close. Ordered the chicken and rice, veal stew, pork with pepper sauce and steak special. The ingredients they used were very good - stew was creamy with fresh leeks and mushrooms. The problem was that most of the food was tasteless. Except for the 'salsa' that came with the chicken and rice. I like spicy, even hot food. But, this was super, choking hot without any real flavor. Very disappointing and not a cheap meal. I will say that the steak was quite tasty, the pork with pepper sauce was pretty good, and the potatoes au gratin with the pork were delish. read more

Food was outstanding. Service was fine for Paris - which is slow vs NYC. Camembert with honey and the escargot were outstanding to start. Ribeye steak was delicious, as was the lamb shank. Wine selection was OK but reasonably priced. Vanilla creme brûlée and the French toast with caramel-salt ice cream desserts were also outstanding. Atmosphere was nice and quite accommodating of Americans - including English menus. As you can tell, we loved it. read more

We had two soups of the day, one entrecôte (we shared it) and a tarte tatin (we shared it). The soup was very good for me and pretty average for my wife. The entrecôte was pretty bad, definitely not worth 23 €. The tarte tatin was average. We will not go back. read more

Unless you speak French stay away from here. After a few days in Paris and some memorable meals I decided to try this bistro since it was close to my hotel and had excellent reviews. I found the rude French waiter we have all heard about. I thought it was a myth. I was greeted warmly by the Maitre D'. I was given an English menu which I appreciated. I wanted steak frites. There was a choice between rib steak with frites & salad or sirloin with Daphne potatoes. The waiter said the sirloin was the better choice. I agreed but asked for frites & salad instead. No problem I was told. The sirloin was served medium well instead of medium rare as requested. The frites were cold. Then the steak was tough and I had to ask for the sauce that should have arrived with it. I could accept all of that but then I was presented the bill!! I was charged extra for both the salad & the frites by 17€50! I asked about it & my waiter got angry. He knew he was wrong and threw 5€ back at me. I was also ignored through my meal, otherwise I would have ordered dessert & coffee. A better suggestion is to walk across the street to Cafe St Ferdinand. read more
