    Escargot
    Kel G.

    They were able to accommodate us immediately for dinner on a Sunday night without reservations. All other places required a reservation or had a really long line. We sat outside and it was lovely minus the smokers at the table next to us. Food with a whiff of cigarette smoke is the worst for non smokers. Order: escargot, mussels with fries, scallop risotto, duck confit. A must try for me was escargot (especially in Paris). Cliche but they were amazing. I believe they were cooked in a parsley garlicy sauce. So freaking good! The mussels were small but also very good. The risotto was creamy but too wine-y for me and I would have loved more scallops. I can't recall how the duck was cooked but it too was good; wasn't overly cooked so it wasn't dry.

    Busy space with a pretty solid steak frites. Our server was nice. The dessert was fabulous! We all ordered the same steak with different temperatures and everyone liked how it was cooked. It came with a sauce and I didn't actually get to choose one, but was provided with bernaise. I asked for the pepper sauce and it was pretty good, better than the other. The cheesecake was good and the French toast was very delicious. A large projection was playing the Olympics. We ate outside because it was a nice evening. If only we could get nonsmoking seating in Paris. Haha

    The option i picked was really good. i had the MACARONI AU GRATIN which had ham and creamy white sauce with tuffle. This pasta I really enjoyed, its creamy of course but the cheese is not the sharpest but I really like it since of the truffle flavor. The snail here was with pesto sauce inside which was on good. First time having snails and it was a good experience eating it. I taste a piece of my partner duck and it was alright since the taste is not for me, I liked it but don't love it enough to keep asking her for what was on her plate. It looks like steak but not exactly same texture but similar vibe.

    Le Compas has become our favorite spot on one of the best streets with the people watching and patio dining vibe! They have a great location and very efficient service! We've tried a range of dishes, and our favorite seems to be their pesto sauce muscles and onion soup! Although their best feature is the location and the vibe!

    Went for Dinner Food - 2/5. Lamb was tender with a simple brown gravy. Taste was typical of brown sauces, being one note. Duck was a good medium well with a nice level of rendering on the fat. The sauce had a peppery kick and the aroma of allspice. The strong scent and sweetness paired well with the duck. Mashed potatoes were lackluster. It lacked creaminess that you would expect from a restaurant level mashed potato and the seasoning was the most basic; little butter with a pinch of salt. Service - 3/5. Most restaurants on this street are busy yet the service has always been attentive and friendly. It was not that they were rude, but their service style was too transactional; taking orders and delivering food without a word like a robot. Ordering in English was fine. Value - 1/5. It wasn't that the food is bad, but they are not at the quality you expect when you dine out. The flavor lacked the culinary finesse of a fine dining establishment or the rustic charm of a mom & pop restaurant. Visually, it resembled cafeteria food, having one color per plate; all having dull tones. The price was standard with entrees being in the 20€~s range and the portions were below average, serving just the protein with a side of mashed potatoes. They have a good corner location, but their food is way outclassed by all the other options in the area. Parking - N/A

    This charming restaurant offered a Traditional French faire with a wonderful atmosphere for people watching. Our host was professional and patient and our server was adorable and so kind! Food was delicious and came out relatively quick. Thank you so much for also helping me tirelessly to booking a train ride! Xoxo

    The YouTubers, Les Frenchies, recommended this place to us and we had a nice dinner even though we visited on a busy Friday night. We were seated immediately and our waiter lit up a candle for a very intimate dinner despite literally sitting inches away from the next table. My fiancee and I split their hamburger and chips. The flavor of their hamburger was very flavorful and the chips were plentiful. For drinks, I had a glass of champagne and my fiancee got their I Love Paris cocktail (tourist vibes, but still delicious). One star down for the price point as this was one of our more expensive dinners and we even shared an entree. Montorgueil is such a hip street at night though, so I'm sure the prices reflect the area appropriately.

    Complimentary olives
    Jenny T.

    The complimentary olives were a great way to start the meal. Escargot- Delicious! The snails were a nice size and flavorful. The bread was a bit hard though. (€16) Fries- They were good. When they ask if you want mayonnaise, say yes. It definitely made them taste better. Salmon Pavé- The salmon itself was tasty and cooked well, but the green beans were really the star of this dish. (€21)

    The perfect place for an outdoor seat and people watching on a busy, popular street. You can grab a drink and sit for a while or get a nice little meal. We stopped here a few times during our visit and the fast was always quick and on it. Food was good, lots of options.

    Wonderful food! Beautiful and sweet staff and delicious drinks! Came twice in our three day stay.

    My wife and I were visiting from the US and enjoyed a great date night meal here. The food was excellent and just what we wanted for a night out together. The beef bourguignon was the best we had while in Paris. Prices were what you expect this was probably our favorite restaurant we ate at.

    Menu and street view

    OMG!! First time in Paris for my retirement trip!! This was EXACTLY what I wanted for my first cafe experience. Located on the corner of a quaint street with several other restaurants and small shops. We (my husband and adult daughter) were able to sit comfortably in their tiny (compared to USA sizes) round table, oooolala so cozy. They even had blankets to cover your legs or lap to off set the morning chill. We chose to sit outside so I could people watch. But we were in for a treat as we saw many different breeds of dogs taking a stroll with their humans. ; ). The dogs were all so well mannered too! Service was spot on! Our server knew some English so it was quite helpful for our first of several revisits during our trip. Extremely attentive and friendly. We all loved the service. Food: wow, you first notice how much FOOD you get with your "set" breakfast! And compared to California costs, we ordered and ate and paid very little. We came back here for lunch and dinner on other days. Now your experience may differ with the different servers working. On our second breakfast visit, translation was a bit off so took a few time before the proper items arrived. But we still ate great food!! I recommend this place for its breakfast and experience. So relaxing and FUN!! If I go back to Paris, this is a place I will have my breakfast! Enjoy.

    Chablis (Domaine sea Chaumes) & the Sancerre (Domaine Doudeau-Léger)
    Amalia B.

    Prices seem reasonable for any large city. Most things around €20-30. We ate the onion soup which was delish. Followed by the Rigatoni and Croque Madame to share. Both excellent! For wine we selected the Chablis (Domaine sea Chaumes) & the Sancerre (Domaine Doudeau-Léger). Staff was great, we did go around 6pm on a Wednesday so it wasn't super busy. Lovely interior decor!

    You know a grub spot is gonna be dope when you walk in and they're playing some good ass hip hop…read morejoints--- Slum Village, ATCQ, Jurassic 5, Les Nubiennes... the jams were just as tight as the flavor. After a long walk through the shops of Bastille, our feet got tired, and craved a good burger. Mapped out "best burger in town" and this spot popped up, with the label on the door reading "The Best Burger in Town". Pierre hooked it up with some good service. They had an English menu available via QR code... thank goodness. My hubs had the Clakos Burger, this month special served with Camembert Au Lait Cru, some good ass cheese from Normandy. It takes a lot to get to the depth of my husbands belly and make him smile after a good meal, but this burger had him pleased. Few good pointers from him: loved the red bell peppers in it, the bread was so soft and fresh, the meat was flavorful, and the cheese was outstanding. My son had a plain cheeseburger-- his points were: the meat was so good, and flavorful all around. A 5 out of 5 coming from a 7 year old. I had the chicken nuggets. 6 pcs for 7€. Not to shabby, and they served it with a choice of barbecue sauce and or sweet and sour sauce. Yum. This location was small, and easy to miss. Just look for a small door and window. The size of a hallway, there are four tables with comfortable seating inside. And a hand wash sink up at the front from All the burger juice that will drip down your hands as you devour. We learned they have 4 locations, one owner, and the bread is cooked fresh daily. Definitely will be back on our next trip!

    The best burger joint! The burger tartare was amazing and the chips were even crispier!…read more The drinks were even stronger! Definitely worth the visit for a fantastic burger
