We were seated pretty promptly despite it being quite early for lunch service. Inside is decorated very nicely, and the location of the restaurant makes it really central. We had the Mediterranean couscous salad, lamb tangine, and escargot. The bread was really quite low quality, but the other food was fine. The tangine was super flavorful but a little heavy, so the veggies from the couscous were really necessary. My friend was hesitant to try escargot, but Le Chouchou did not mess it up and it was buttery and flavorful. read more

Seating at Chouchou was quick and the service was fine. Their Moroccan salad was good and refreshing but perhaps a bit too oily. The rib eye left much to be desired - it was cooked more rare than I preferred, and it had an odd chewy texture in some bites. The fries were some of the better ones I've had in Paris. read more

A kitsch restaurant with an American diner-like decor. Seats are comfortable and service is efficient. We were only there for coffee and dessert. Can't say anything about food but crème brûlée was ok. The sugarcoating layer was a bit thin, but good. read more

First off, all these other 3-5 star reviews are either paid for or for another restaurant under a similar name. This place is horrible. Looks are deceiving, the outside is very cute and has a nice ambiance, however, the food, service, drinks and details are terrible. Our food was okay... definitely not worth what we paid and we had a whole situation with our drinks. We ordered two cocktails, a blue lagoon and pina colada. The blue lagoon was good however what they served us claiming to be a pina colada was disgraceful. It was not even blended or slushee like at all, it was luke warm rum with a splash of pineapple juice? When we brought this up to the waiter, who only comes by once every 30 mins and is impossible to flag down, he told us to go talk to the people at the bar. We did and they said it wasn't their problem that we didn't like it. When we brought this up again to the waiter he had a terrible attitude saying we waited to long to tell him. How are we supposed to tell him right away when he only comes by every 30 mins, we told him as soon as possible. Eventually with some fuss we were able to get it taken off the bill but we shouldn't have had to face such attitude and terrible service to get a mistake corrected. Please please ignore the other reviews. This place is terrible and strange and you will regret coming here! read more

horrible. My friend and I went here for lunch, both of our meals weren't seasoned and it was obvious that the fries and vegetables had been heated from frozen read more

Found this spot walking by the area. They advertise a formula dinner 13.95 euro for appetizer- dinner or dinner - dessert. But once you sit down, you are informed of the extra 1.50 euro surcharge for weekend, holidays and evening. That s a big downer right off the bat. Happy hour drink prices are reasonable. The food is ok... I ordered the œuf poche à la bordelaise (Bordeaux a poached egg) and the Dos de Colin fondue de poireaux, sauce vierge ( Black hake with leeks and virgin sauce). It s a bit salty but will hit the spot especially when one is hungry. There s not a line here and that should always be a clue.... The service is basic. The waiter seems more interested in attracting cute ladies passing by than clients... lol... he should be a bouncer at some club instead. The view is on the famous Bachir Ice Cream place. Now, check that place out when you can for dessert! read more

Le Chouchou - Dessert de tarte aux pommes - International Near Me - Paris, 75

I had no idea what we were sitting down to. I didn't know it was a Mediterranean/vegetarian restaurant. Probably why the tartar wasn't the traditional tartar. I think that put some type of ketchup in the mix, or at least that's how it tasted. It wasn't bad, just different. I also had a nice pate dish. Overall, I actually enjoyed this food, it was just different from the traditional forms of what I'm used to. Give this a try, it's different but good. read more

The food was really great. We ordered two steak type meals and the onion soup. I really appreciated that they provided different language menus it just gives that extra attention that makes an experience worthwhile. Excellent server, his name was George read more

Le Chouchou - steak with sauce - International Near Me - Paris, 75

This place is only about a block from where I live in Paris, and its located on a very nice and busting street. There are a lot of choices for restaurants on this block but the menu for this one looked nice enough. It was 13.90€ for Entree+Plat OR Plat+Dessert so you dont exactly get the full on 3 course thing. We came here for lunch on a Saturday and the waiter was extremely attentive. He brought the board that contained the items for the formule to our table and patiently explained a few things we didnt understand. Entree: soup de l'oignon This dish was a little sub-par in my opinion. It was a tad too salty for me and there wasn't that much cheese in it (disappointing!!) The bread still had a taste of oil/grease in it from it probably being fried or crisp-ed in oil? Not really sure. Plat: confit de canard This dish was very good. It was the the thigh of a fuck with thinly sliced potato medallions. The potatoes were roasted to be crispy and had good seasoning on it. When I ordered this dish, I wasn't exactly sure what part of the duck I was getting. The thigh isn't exactly my favorite so I wasn't crazy about this dish but objectively speaking it was executed well. I'm giving this place 4 stars because of the great service, good location, and because my two other friends really liked what they ordered. It was steak with a green peppercorn sauce with frites. They loved it. I saw the other tables had really yummy looking tagine things in those big dishes...I really want to try that. read more

Dinner with two friends. Service was excellent. I had the lamb tangine with figs and walnuts along with one of my friends. The lamb was plentiful tasty and tender. My other friend had the lamb skewer with fries. Very good. Nice wine and atmosphere. Dîner avec deux amis. Le service était excellent. J'ai eu le tangin d'agneau aux figues et aux noix avec un de mes amis. L'agneau était copieux, savoureux et tendre. Mon autre ami avait la brochette d'agneau avec des frites. Très bien. Bon vin et ambiance. read more

1st breakfast in Paris We stumbled out of the car from CDG, too early to check into our AirBnB landed at Chouchou bar. We were tired and jet-lagged and the lovely guy who stands in front to rope us in was successful. Great little place in a very busy area read more

We stumbled off the metro from CDG, checked into our AirBnB and stumbled out again, landing at Chouchou bar. We were tired and jet-lagged and the lovely guy who stands in front to rope us in was successful. Atmosphere: We got a nice table just inside - the windows were open so it was like we were outside but with a roof :-) The atmoshpere was comfortable, not loud and pleasantly bustling. I loved it. I got a campari and soda and all was right with the world. The host also did some waiter duty and he was nice to my son, so I was elated! The rest of the servers were not as charming but service was fine. We ordered escargot - I used to order them frequently from the Crepe Bistro in Davis - a cute place run by a French expat French professor. The escargot was always divine at the Crepe Bistro. Chouchou's were muddy and not a good introduction for my daughter. Perhaps they forgot the step where they feed the snails cornstarch. Bleh. I am always happy to travel to get away from the aversion to anything besides cow and chicken legs. I was pretty happy to see kidney on the menu. My mom used to make kidney and it's so good! The kidney was from a young animal and not overcooked but it tasted dirty. Double bleh. Nevertheless, Chouchou was a fine choice and the cocktail, staff and atmosphere were perfect for the evening. read more

A nice cozy restaurant that could be a local favorite and it's close to the Pamoedou. The place had live music for dinner service when we were there and they also had the formulae dinner sets. We ordered the onion soup and the duck leg confit. Both were good and was great value. We will definitely come back if we're in the neighborhood again. read more

We stopped here for dinner because it was a sunny day in Paris and they have an outside patio. Sadly, we were not seated outside. Nevertheless, we ordered our food and were pleasantly surprised with the flavors and price. I ordered the lamb with fig and walnuts tagine, and hubby ordered the skirt steak with frites. My tagine was quite flavorful and came with a nice and fluffy couscous. Hubby's frites were excellent, the skirt steak was flavorful - albeit a bit chewy. The bill for our meal was very reasonable. In fact, this is one of the cheapest restaurants we have eaten at in Paris. Overall: The service was good, they provide English menus, they take credit cards, the bathroom is clean, and the ambiance is lively. I would go again. read more

-Food= 3.8 Star -Service = 3.5 Star -Atomosphere = 3.5 Star (Maybe a little bit more because it has a terrace and great view of those wandering the streets in Paris.) -Meal Price = 5 star This was not the first choice of restaurants we wanted to go to during lunch that day. We passed by it in search for a Moroccan restaurant known for its (with great online reviews) Couscous. Sadly, the place wasn't opened until 5pm. So as we walked back we chose this place out of all the little outdoor rustic restaurants because we saw how great the food looked as we passed by earlier. Walking the restrooms were first used. Thank you lord it was clean and roomy! The french tend to have small, 'petite' sized restrooms and feels very claustrophobic. I mean seriously, a toilet is a dirty place, the last thing you want to be is in a small cramped room of just a toilet right! Inhaling all that gross air and slowly causing a slow death of toilet bowl fumes! Yuck! Sorry, Anyways Major plus it was pretty tidy & roomy even if it was a Unisex restroom. We sat down and as we viewed the menu my boyfriend was quite pleased they also served Couscous. A great selection of one too! There was four of us, and I ordered the 1/2 rotisserie chicken with sauteed potatoes, they were actually just fried potato wedges (weird). Boyfriend the Lamb Shank and Merguez Sasuage Couscous, and his two cousins were Veggie Couscous and Steak with bernaise sauce and Potato wedges like mines. Anywho, I don't quite remember how much their meals were but I was shocked my plate was only 11,90 Euros. My chicken was a huge amount, they slabbed on a bunch of wedges and it came with a small side salad! The Couscous came out looking great. As well as the steak. Yum. I love steak. All in all it was a worth-it resatuarnt. What made it even greater was for the 4 of us with all large meals, the total came out to be just under 54,00 Euros. Seriously, WOW! That's usually the cost of a meal for 2 and maybe 3 if you do the conversions from US dollars. This place was not only cheap but the food tasted even better than good since it was Cheap! Who doesn't love cheap great food? I know I do! read more

I ate here with 2 friends for an early dinner on a Saturday. We were swayed to come in by their charming outside waiter/greeter. The restaurant seemed nice and I was happy to find a place that had a few vegetarian options. The restaurant was pretty busy but we got a nice table towards the back. There was also live music which was a very nice surprise. Food: 3 stars Atmosphere: 4 stars (I gave it an extra star because of the live music) Service: 2.5 stars I thought that the food was very average. I got the onion soup (which I was told was vegetarian) and enjoyed it well enough. It was good but definitely not amazing. I also got the falafel plat with frites and a side salad. It wasn't bad but both the falafel and fries were of frozen food quality. Also, the "falafel" wasn't what I would consider a genuine falafel. Instead of being primarily made of chickpeas, it was mostly couscous. This made the "falafel" nuggets very dry and crumbly (not to mention very bland). The sauce that came with the falafel was also very bland. However, both of my friends seemed to enjoy there meals. One got half a chicken with frites and the other got a croque madame. The service was only ok. Nobody was rude, but nobody was very nice or friendly either. The only problem was at the end of the meal. First, its not a huge deal, but we were brought the check without asking, which made me feel like I was being asked to leave. This is especially true since the waitress hadn't done that to any of the other tables around us who were French speaking and had been there much longer than we had. But, she might've been trying to act according to what she thought we would've want since we were American. I'm not sure, so I'll assume the best in that situation. However, I was very annoyed by two other "misunderstandings". First, I ordered from the fixed menu because I thought it seemed like an excellent deal. But I guess I should know better and that if something seems too good to be true, it probably is. The sign said, "entree + plat + dessert 13€95". When the waitress collected my dinner plate I told her that I would like the creme brûlée. She then told me that the sign meant that you got an appetizer OR a dessert. I think that is very misleading considering the word "or" is no where to be found and there are plus signs in between the different parts of the meal. So I paid 7€ for a cup of soup and 7€ for "falafel" nuggets and potato wedges. Terrible deal! Then, I was over charged for my drink by a little over 2€. But at that point I just want to leave and I could tell by the waitress' expression that's what she wants too. Definitely won't be coming back. read more

It's a fine place near Les Halles and Beaubourg they have set menu and they did let me change the main course for a tagine which I was craving for. They have a terrace on the street and the service was good. The tagine was fine but I was expecting better in Paris. read more

Location is just by George Pompidou center and 2 minutes from a metro station, if that is not appealing enough the food is excellent. Add to that live music and you have a good idea what to expect when you seat. Service could get better but it's Paris. read more

We were looking for a good/late happy hour and wow, what a great find!! The drinks are super strong () and the food was actually amazing.

The drinks, food, and service were awesome!! read more

The waiter was fabulous! Quick service, English menu, and very helpful. The salad nicoise was delicious. The other food was okay. At the end of the meal, the waiter took our baskets of bread and placed them on the shelf with other bread baskets to be served to other tables. Is this common in Europe or France? This seemed quite odd to me and a health concern. Decent food and good wait staff. read more

Great little place in a very busy area behind the museum. Could not have asked for a better change of pace from French food

My one star review is based on the fact that because we spoke English and not French, the server copped a huge attitude and then deliberately did not even enter in our order for Tartare. I have been a server for a long time and Tartare is very easy, and when there are only two other tables sat in the whole restaurant there is absolutely ZERO excuse for that behaviour. He brought us the wine, and did not make eye contact while doing so. He served the other two tables multiple rounds of alcohol during our 40 minute wait for food that would never come. He was beyond friendly with them but never even came back to our table during that time. I had to go up to the counter and ask about the Tartare and in so many French words he just acted like he forgot. I can't even speak to the quality of the food because they refused to serve us. What a complete joke of a staff and I strongly advise you not go if you can't speak French because they will treat you like complete garbage. read more

Very casual, yummy Morrocan and French food served with fast, friendly service. The chicken and citron tagine was delicious. The perfect place for a quick bite, and they sometimes also have live jazz. Note that the elaborate ceiling is a historic landmark. With so many ho-hum choices in this touristy area, Chouchou is a standout. read more

This restaurant was my favorite when visiting Paris. It was down the street from my AirBnb and I loved that it was open earlier than most of the cafe or restaurants near by. I am an early bird and I like to eat breakfast between 6 and 7 am and the breakfast they serve here is affordable, simple, yet delicious. They have amazing croissants and the best hot chocolate I have ever tasted. The staff is extremely friendly and attentive. read more

When the drizzle abated, we decided to eat outside under the awning of this randomly chosen spot. I had onion soup (for the weather - salty but good) and a skirt steak cooked medium because we couldn't communicate what medium-rare meant. It came topped with sauteed shallots (too sweet), a blase salad of no consequence, and very ordinary fries. During dinner, we met an old poet, Philip Sentner, who tried to ply a meal off the date. "I'm so hungry," he said. And he did look desperately hungry and I thought, what would Henry Miller do? So I made him a deal - leave the lady alone and he could have what was left of my meal. I was not hungry and ate about a third of my steak (quite large), none of the salad, and a couple of the fries. He seemed to enjoy the meal, but of course he would. This experience with a cliche - a starving French poet - made the meal much more memorable. The food itself was ordinary. read more

Rue montorgueil is a beautiful place for walking and hanging out. A lot of boutique shops, and petite cafe at every corner. Had lunch at Chouchou and it was good. The duck was prepared like a steak and didn't taste like duck at all, in a good way. The steak wasn't tender but the flavor and sauce topping was very good. Frites was also fantastic. read more
