    Tartar
    Regina S.

    What a treat! Had outdoor reservations but far too cold. We sat at the main bar and what a fun and great time. Service was superb! The steak tartar w/salad & fries was simple yet excellent. The yellow fish cooked perfectly. The mayonnaise eggs were outstanding.

    This place was AMAZING. I took my husband to Paris for the first time and wanted to pick places to eat that were truly special and reflective of the amazing food culture that France has to offer. This restaurant is it. Seeing a restaurant with so much hype on social media can often be misleading or disappointing, but this place earns every ounce of the hype. They are extremely friendly to non-English speakers and do a great job of walking you through the menu to understand your options. The wine menu is enormous, but the staff are ready with excellent recommendations at any price point. We started with an incredible asparagus dish that was covered in the most incredible hollandaise I've ever had. After that, my husband had a delicious roast lamb dish and I had the famous steak au poivre with fries. You can buy a large entrecote to share, but I went with the filet which was cooked to absolute medium-rare perfection! We were so full by the end of the night that we didn't even do dessert, but a couple next to us got the chocolate mousse which looked incredible (although 30 euro for a chocolate mousse is my only complaint of the restaurant). The ambiance of the restaurant is so cute. Tables are close together, like any classic Parisian restaurant, but the vibe is cozy and quintessentially Parisian. Long story short, GO HERE. You will not walk away disappointed.

    I have been fantasizing about a roast chicken in France since we booked our trip to Paris, and one of our first reservations was at Le Bon Georges. The restaurant is beautiful and the outdoor seating is the place to be. The service is wonderful - they bring a menu board to every table and a server reads through the whole menu with you. All classically French dishes that are not to be missed - oeufs mayonnaise, pate en croute, beef tartare, seasonal chanterelles. We ordered all of this, plus a 120€ roast chicken - a heritage breed from a free range farm outside of Paris. I don't want to call myself a chicken connoisseur.... But I've have my fair share of excellent roast chickens. This was a *very dissapointing* dry, unseasoned bird. Definitely overcooked. The saving grace was that, despite it all, it was a high quality bird. For 120€ chicken, it was a shame. All other parts of our meal were excellent.

    An Amazing dining experience! The meal and service were exceptional. Best Steak Au Poivre

    So good!! Felt very authentic Perusian. Their menu changes daily depending on seasonal and fresh ingredients. They do not have paper menus, just the chalkboard. Since it was all in French, our waiter (I really wish I got her name) was so incredibly friendly, energetic and informative in explaining the menu and the daily features. I ended up getting the duck plate and my mom got one of the fishes. They both were really amazing, especially the sauces on each. They will give you a jar of pickles upon request which is so cool and they were really good. You could tell they were homemade. Their bread is also really good. But OMG the chocolate mousse was to die for. It was a huge pot with fresh chocolate shavings on top. It is definitely to share which is nice. We sat outside on the terrace, which was beautiful and felt very French. Every table was full so a reservation ahead of time is a must. We got our hotel to call and they were able to get us a great reservation. Overal this place was excellent and we would come back.

    The staff was super incredible! The food was, some of the best I've had in Paris (says a lot by saying a little)

    Steak Hache
    Graysen V.

    Got a last-minute reservation here and had a blast. We hoped to just drink and order desserts, but were informed we did need to eat a whole meal. They gave us a beautiful outside table next to another group visiting from America. The menu changes every day based on ingredient freshness and availability, but our server walked us through the menu and made sure to check for allergies and answer questions. They also had a probably 8-inch tall book of wine options at all price points (I think the lowest I saw was 25 Euro, with more cheap options near 30 euro, and going up as high as several hundred). We are wine novices, so we asked for their opinion and gave a price point and they located us a bottle that was delish. The food was impeccable, with nice, fluffy, and chewy bread, great fries, and wonderful butter on top of the meat. The steak hache was wonderfully flavored. I would definitely recommend going if you have the time and can catch a reservation!

    If you wanna have one expensive meal while you're in Paris, that I think is actually worth it. This would be the place to go. I got the classic fruits and while it cost me an arm and a leg it's a once in a lifetime experienced that I don't regret. My waiter was extremely nice and explain explaining the menu, but Service was definitely a little bit rushed. The giant wine venue is not something you could realistically comb through yourself so we asked for a recommendation..

    Frequented by locals and tourists alike Le Bon Georges is a Paris must! Let's start with reservations, make one because you won't get in without one! Once seated, your next big move will be wine selection. Here's where you need to check your ego because their wine book (yes, book not list) weighs more than the average baby. I knooooow, you took a few wines classes and read a few Wine Spectator articles, trust me that won't cut here. I suggest you inform their Sommelier of your preferences and let them curate your pairings. Now that you've let the expert know what type of wines you like it's time for the food. I started with the Warm Beef Tongue and let me tell you it was the most beautiful French kiss I've ever had! The tenderness and bold flavors of the tongue paired beautifully with the silky tuna ravigote and tart radish salad. For my main course I recommend the Kintoa Pig. The pork was pan-seared beautifully and when you take bites of the caramelized fat cap along with the lentils the whole dish just sings! For dessert I wanted the chocolate mousse everyone raves about but I was by myself and the server advise that it was too much for one person and suggested the one you see in my pictures. I can't remember the name but the taste of it will always live in my memory palace. I highly suggest you make a reservation and have either lunch or dinner here but brings friends so you can share the chocolate mousse.

    We had a fabulous EXPERIENCE at Le Bon Georges! We were lucky to be seated without making a reservation; it would be very wise to reserve a table. Our food was delicious, and the service was impeccable. The wine list was akin to a Russian novella in size, and a sommelier helped us navigate the tome. We had a great rapport with our server, who was easily able switch between a number of languages to communicate with our entire dinner party. The ouefs mayonnaise were unexpected and special. The classic steak tartar and the beef carpaccio were perfect. The chocolate mousse dessert was delicious, but beware, it's huge. Our meal was fantastic, and we would go back.

    everything about this meal from start to finish was incredible. to start, our waiter was so kind, knowledgeable, & innately hospitable. eggs mayonnaise were zesty & fresh. the steak was cooked to perfection & that peppery sauce is to die for! chocolate mousse & the cherry pudding were perfect closers for the evening. will definitely come again for another great bite (off of iconic china, no less) when i return to Paris.

    At Le Bon Georges, everyone dining here seemed to be American -- usually a bad sign (says the American). Nevertheless, the restaurant, which is no well-kept secret, lives up to its reputation as one of the best brasseries in Paris. The food and service were flawless, and the room is a picture-perfect execution of what one expects a Parisian brasserie to look like without tipping over into Disney-style pastiche. The champagne by the glass when I visited was a fantastic Pierre Paillard rosé of which I had a bottle cellared back home, so clearly Le Bon Georges was on my wavelength. If they are on the menu, look for the pâté en croûte, duck breast, and tarte tatin.

    Definitely pricey but food was delicious. Wine menu is insanely large. I just went with the house white which was good for me. Steak frites were delicious and the scallops were amazing.

    Beef tartare, a highlight

    Good, but not worth the hype. Steak was solid, but overall felt a bit overrated for the price.

I was seated in the backroom which was all high tables and very quiet. Notre Pâté en croûte - This was great. A slice of bread with chunks of duck and other meat with pickled items on the side (which I always love!) and a little bit of lettuce. It is not like a spreadable paté. Capra (salade) - this was a large salad with three large fried goat cheese balls. I had to take much of it with me. It has a variety of ingredients which don't necessarily go together but you can mix and match with each bite. They have a QR code to their website for the English menu if you need. I was stopped at the door asking if I paid which was strange because the tables in my section all have QR codes on them to pay before leaving. Do Parisians not use these? Next time: I'll sit upstairs and try some other dishes.

The food was served tapas style, and they have deals such as getting 5 (or 10!) plates at a discounted price. We ordered 5 for the two of us, but the tapas here are much larger than they are in the states, so we were STUFFED and didn't even finish three fourths of it! Well worth the money. Because it is a more authentic place, most waiters didn't speak English. They were helpful to the best of their ability, and I would highly suggest giving them a try even if you're not overly confident in your French!

Unfortunately, it was past 10 pm so a lot of places were closed. We were getting frantic trying to find a restaurant that was still open. We finally pinged this place on GoogleMaps. I have to say, this place is the definition of a hidden gem. It's a small French tapas place off on a side street that unless you were really searching, you would probably walk by it in favor of larger restaurants. I don't know if our waiter was also the owner or the sommelier, but either way, his English was limited. Luckily, my fiancee's sister speaks French so she was able to translate the menu (to an extent). As such, this was a tapas restaurant so everything was small plates and meant to be shared. I don't remember the exact name of everything we ordered, but I remember a Pad Thai, a beef dish, smoked salmon, octopus, and a fried dish (maybe calamari, but I don't remember). The food is excellent and packed with flavor. You'd be surprised how filling these little dishes can be. If you ever come to Paris, I recommend going off the beaten path for this little piece of heaven.

The cheese was nice and melty and slightly charred in some spots. I shared this with my husband but I probably could have eaten two of these on my own. The snails were great as well.
