    Nice curb appeal every time I walk near place vendôme. Mostly tourists dine here and that should be a clue. I had the avocado toast with smoked salmon and poached egg for starters. The egg needed some salt. For the main entree, I had the scallops in crème with spinach. Not bad. All paired with Sancerre wine. Service ranged from poor to fair. Two servers were constantly out of the service area for their smoke breaks. Affected service.

    Cheese burger medium cooked and salmon with steamed veggies....yumzy!!

    LC is one place I'd never miss when I'm in Paris. Why? Because it's the only burger I'd eat in the world. I'm not a red meat eater, but I would only fly to LC to eat theirs!! If you like in n out, try LC's, you too will take that next flight to Paris for the hamburger here!! This place is always packed, be sure to come during off hours ONLY or you'll be sorry for that ugly dreaded wait. Another reason I'm always here besides their excellent burger, it's right in the heart of the best Paris shopping district surrounded by the best of the best shops....lol!! I love LC and LC loves me back...always!!

    The family came here for dinner on our first night in Paris. It was within walking distance from our hotel and recommended by our concierge. Our server was great! We loved his friendliness and sense of humor. He made great recommendations and really made our whole experience better. The snails, fish and desserts were all outstanding. The prices are on the high side which accounts for the loss of a star.

    Awesome place that has a great atmosphere with an outdoor area to overlook the folks walking by, a first level bar, and upstairs restaurant. We actually ate here twice--once for breakfast and once for dinner. Everyone working here is super nice and attentive. Very welcoming and friendly, almost a family feel. When we ate breakfast at the bar, you can tell some locals would start the day there with a quick coffee and croissant. Baskets of croissants and other pastries lined the bar. We had the best of both worlds for savory and sweet. I opted for the eggs with cheese and ham. My wife got the best looking (I didn't eat it though) brioche French toast that I've ever seen. For dinner, we had the truffle risotto and the pasta with ham and truffle. Both were good and not overly rich especially given both had cheese and truffle. It was a nice way to spend our last dinner in Paris. The food is moderately priced. Definitely recommend this restaurant if you are in the Vendôme area!

    This tok over 45 minutes to be served. Horrible client service .

    Found this place walking by. It took 45 minutes of a wait (EXCESSIVE) for avocado & crab. No one , NO ONE comes by to see if there's anything you need . It waitress that that the kitchen have problems but if that was the issue then it should've been disclosed to us as clients. It doesn't take 45 minutes to surf avocado and crab to a table

    One of the best meals we had in Paris! Delicious food, and wonderful service. Absolutely go here if you're in the area... if not, make sure to get to the area.

    Avoid!!!!!  The food is okay at best, but the service is TERRIBLE, particularly for Americans.

    AVOID!!!! The food is mediocre at best, but the service reaches new levels of terrible. Avoid particularly if you are American.

    The face of pure evil.

    As someone who travels to France regularly I can tell you that this man and this restaurant should be avoided at all costs - they are the definition of evil. We settled into the bar for a quick drink during the afternoon, I quickly ordered a bourbon and my wife was curious about a type of Champagne she had not seen before, and asked for a taste. The server quickly (and quite rudely) said no . . . I assumed there was a language barrier so I asked him in French. The answer was the same, hard no. I then asked for the manager, who came over and repeated this same ignorant answer. We shared my bourbon and left leaving no tip. I asked the man if he was the owner, jokingly, and he shook his head no, I then said - "obviously!" At the casual bistro or brasserie level all the way up to the extreme high-end Michelin starred restaurants, the French are always incredibly warm and kind. In fact, service is something they excel in! This man, his colleague, and the owner should be ashamed.

    Authentic onion soup, escargot and cappuccino at this cozy spot in the Vendome area. Cheese was a bit too light on the soup but overall perfect cute and high end place for a shopping break.

    Excellent cafe in the middle of ultra high end shopping district. A little pricey but worth the location and servers/managers were friendly and very accommodating. Try the escargot and L'Oignon soup for a delicious late lunch at the bar in between purchases at Chanel and Gucci!

    I'm a vegan traveling with non-vegans and I was a little worried about finding dining choices with enough variety to satisfy all tastes. I'm happy to say that my first night in Paris I was pleasantly surprised to find this beautiful salad on the menu! Complimented with a generous scoop of wild strawberry sorbet for dessert and I was very happy! The others in my party had escargot, cod, French onion soup and a chicken dish. All were equally pleased with their meal choices. A little pricey if you are budget conscious, but certainly fair for the high end area the restaurant is located.

    The best French onion soup I had in Paris. The burger was great but make sure you order it well done and without the sauce!

    The most life- changing experience with French cuisine. This is what French culinary dreams are…read moremade of. Get the appetizer grilled foie gras with side of greens, you won't regret it. The richness of the flavor and the texture which is not reminiscent of the traditional roasted duck or foie gras, but rather a much more like a luxurious and indulgent version. We enjoyed our dinner on the outside of the restaurant after about a 20-30 minute wait. The bone marrow had the best flavor I've experienced for the dish. However, it is definitely overshadowed by the rich flavor of the foie gras. This experience was unforgettable, with our view of Parisian streets on a brisk, April night. We even came back on our last night, but didn't realize the hours on Google maps was for the deli. The restaurant closes earlier, before 9:00 PM. This meal got us thinking about Paris in a positive light, and we hope to be able to come back to eat the amazing dishes again!

    This place was a huge letdown. They had a cute little artisanal market on the front left of the…read morerestaurant. They had a number of goods to choose from and I ended up buying a few things for souvenirs. As for the actual restaurant, they had a number of delicious sounding items on their menu. Our server was very attentive to us and helped us decide on our dinner orders. Similar to the other restaurants though. After our food was delivered, it was far in between when we were checked on again. And after dessert it took even longer for our server to bring the bill. Overall, the food was a letdown. I do not exaggerate when I say that the frog legs just tasted like slightly flavored water. My friend's ravioli had a fairly decent flavored sauce but the pasta was a bit chewy. My friend's duck breast was pretty tough; I had noticed the table next to us also ordered it and they seemed to have trouble finishing/cutting theirs as well. As for my steak with foie gras, well the steak was once again tough and the foie gras was weirdly stringy. It was soft for the most part but there were parts that were tough and stringy. Maybe that's a section that's generally separated in the preparation process and it was missed? In any case it was disappointing. What wasn't disappointing was dessert though; perfectly sweet and balanced.
