    Nice Parisian restaurant. Food was great and staff friendly and professional. It was a positive experience and will repeat it.

    I've been wanting to go here and finally we went on a perfect sunny day in Paris. We opted to sit outside and the server was very kind and pleasant checked on us numerous times would love to come back here again. We just had a snack. We had some crepes with Nutella, french fries and some refreshments. Ambiance inside was casual and their washroom was very clean.

    if you're in Paris, you NEED to visit Montmartre, a quaint & lovely neighborhood on a hill where you can also get a view of the city! this spot has the prettiest exterior and a comforting vibe inside w/ super friendly service. french onion soup was light (not as thick as what i'm used to) and the linguine was unexpectedly so good (loved the mushrooms). the mussels were small but i actually preferred the size bc they were more tender & flavorful. and of course the creme brulee didn't disappoint!! what we ordered: - linguine w/ basil and mushroom cream - moules frites (mussels with french fries) - french onion soup - side salad - dessert: creme brulee

    Iconic cafe

    Oui oui oui! This was the hang out of Picasso, Toulouse Lautrec n more aristocrats. For those who don't know Henri Toulouse-Lautrec was a French artist, synonymous with the image of an absinthe-soaked, bohemian 19th century Paris. A nightlife-loving aristocrat, he was a VIP at the Moulin Rouge n the novel n. movie was inspired by his life as a bon vivant. There were more ads on Instagram on Maison Rose than Le Consulat so we went to Maison Rose, the nasty server yelled at us so we left n came here, lucky us, this wonderful restaurant had such vibes I felt so welcome n relaxed. We ordered a soupe à l'oignon (onion soup) 12euros, so good escargots looked so cute! They were good too, we had ice cream with an amazing home made Chantilly (whipped cream) the dude sitting next to me had a steak I wanted it so bad but my husband said to save my hunger to eat at la crémaillère which turned out to be no longer good I wrote a review. The service was impeccable, leConsulat is an iconic restaurant in the heart of Montmartre n it's not to be missed.

    Onion soup
    Irene B.

    The food was just okay. Not bad and not extraordinary. The onion soup was a bit salty. The escargot was a bit dry and not luscious or to die for. The best part of the alfresco table was the music and dancing on the street right in the heart of Montmartre. Le Consulat is always worth a one-time dining experience ( even if the service was slow and the food so-so when we were there) for its part in the history of bohemian Paris in the time of the famous impressionists and other greats of Art and Literature.

    What can one say about Le Consulat that hasn't been said before? We stopped here for midday snacks & wine and had a great time watching some street musicians who were actually talented. A must-stop when in Montmartre.

    Flambéed Grand Marnier crêpes

    An unbeatable combination; amazing food, impeccable, service, and a small café experience that can't be duplicated by a larger restaurant! It goes without saying that a café probably frequented by Picasso, Monet, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Van Gogh is a MUST to visit and dine in for any art lover. It's situated in the Montmartre district which provides you a respite from the hustle and bustle of Paris, perfect for an after meal stroll through its storied neighborhood. Much has already been said about its impressive menu, so I'll just mention the flambéed Grand Marnier crêpes for dessert was amazing!

    Craving mussels. And of course the need to hike up Montmartre. Moules was posted on a sign out front, so we go in. As many Paris restaurants the seating is tight and especially at the lunch rush in a touristy area. The service was good. French / English menu not a problem. The mussels were ok. The wine broth didn't really have enough flavor. The bites were small. The frites were perfectly hot, crispy outside and tender inside. Nice restaurant, but would recommend finding a different selection on the menu.

    A cute little cafe in Montmarte. I like their crepe and hot choco. The owner or maybe the people working here are really nice too.

    My sad meal but the water and bread was delish.

    Well the location is #1. I ordered my fav dishes here well becuz i'm in Paris and I absolutely love the Montmartre neighborhood. Ooh la la. escargot was ok - could have had more sauce french onion soup was watery - is it supposed to be like this in France? watery? I have had better french onion soup in America. bread was decent water was delicious. I wanted to have bubbly but they didn't have Prosecco. I know I know I'm in France I'm supposed to order champagne but didn't feel like having French bubbly at the time ‍. Staff was superb and fantastic Minus the 1 star for the sad food.

    Mussels and frites!

    Thinking about my favorite memories of our trip to Paris, and Le Consulate lands a top spot on the list. Le Consulat is historic - and there is something so magical about dining in this tiny restaurant where some of the world's greatest artist found themselves often. I'm talking Van Gough, Monet, Picasso...wow. It's located down the street from the plaza of artists in Montmartre and it is really charming. I recommend sitting outside - even on a cold day, it's just kind of entrancing to watch people walk down the streets. Of course I started with a Vin Chaud. I became obsessed with hot, mulled wine during my trip and if you go when it's chilly to France - you MUST have Vin Chaud all the time. I ordered the mussels - which came with amazing fries. Didn't love the mussels - maybe they got cold too fast because we were outside, I don't know. BUT the other food I stole from my boo was excellent. The French Onion soup was to die for, and so was the plate of sliced ham with bread. This is a place where you stay awhile. Don't expect an in and out lunch. But with the people watching, good company, and a nice glass of wine - you won't ever want to leave!

    Yum. Cheeseburgers.

    We were seated quickly. The servers were nice and our food was good. We would come back here.

    TLDR: a nice little restaurant next to the artist square. _____ This place is historic and has been visited by many famous artists when they visited Paris. Notable names include Picasso, Van Gogh, and Monet, and now include Blue Arauz. Add that to your roster Le Consulat! A cold, cloudy day, so of course we sat outside. Amazing people watching. The cars going down the narrow road made for some intense moments as well. But with a glass of wine and basket of bread, this was one of the most perfect meals I've ever had. An incredible afternoon mixing ambiance, good food, excellent service and surreal moments of "Am I really here?" Onion soup - this was excellent and really warmed my soul on this chilly day! Jambon - A plate of ham. With bread. Hell yes. Mussels - didn't love these, but we wanted to order something different. They were good, but wish we had gone with something else. Wine - of course wine. A nice house wine was affordable and delicious. Overall this was an EXCELLENT lunch.

These smaller bistro type eateries are the lifeblood of the local cuisine. They consistently offer reasonably priced dishes that are full of flavor and technique. The wine and drink options are well catered to the menu and they provide options for most price points. The service we experienced was exactly what you want... our server had plenty of suggestions based on the offerings of the day. The service was attentive and responsive... not much more than you could ask for. I had the duck breast being offered... it was served alongside crispy potatoes, green beans, and a salad. Adding in the onion soup and a glass of wine... it quickly became a King's dinner at a very reasonable price. I would be more than happy to eat here again and look forward to exploring the rest of the menu offering many local and classic French options.

Like others have said, it's super small inside, so you'll get to know your neighbors really well. But your attention will be more focused on the food they bring out. I had the lamb with thyme sauce and my wife had the confit duck leg. Don't be afraid to pick the sauce of the day over the regular honey sauce. The sauce of the day on the day we went was a blackberry sauce which was crazy good. With a bottle of wine at 24 euros and both entrees under 20 euros, you couldn't really beat a meal of that quality in many places around Paris for that price. It was only after I ate at Le Potager did I see it had a bunch of great reviews on Yelp. It's definitely earned all those stars.

Making a reservation isn't hard but you do need to email them and there's no online booking system. You also have to confirm again 1-2 days before. I understand they are small with a limited number of tables so that's fair and it seemed like everyone showed up even though they don't require a deposit. On a Friday night, it didn't appear there was much chance or walking in although there were like 2 open seats at what would have been a shared table. The menu is small and includes some typical French starters, steaks, 3 non steak entrees, cheeses, and dessert. All steaks come with potatoes, 3 sauces, salad. Service was a highlight. The waiter was personable and funny, had solid recommendations, and made sure leftovers were taken home. Also had a solid wine recommendation after asking some questions. They probably get a lot of people who don't speak French and they had no problem speaking English. The food- ordered a ribeye medium rare. The steak was so so charred on the outside and it almost ruined the whole thing. I really wish they would have charred it way less especially when it was ordered medium rare. There is seared and then there is burnt; this was sadly the latter. The steak itself was fine, honestly nowhere near the best meat I have had but the price is quite reasonable for how much you get. I would say the steak was maybe 6/10 for me, largely due to the cooking. The fries were phenomenal. Definitely a highlight and really tasty and with a great texture. Salad was good, pretty typical. I wanted to like the sauces more but found them just okay. The best by far for me was the blue cheese sauce but even this one I thought the flavors could have popped a little more. Atmosphere was fun, there were a few bigger groups (6-8 which is the biggest they accommodate) but it never got unreasonably loud. Overall I wanted to love it but was a bit disappointed even though the service and fries were both great.

It's a tiny restaurant, so if you're a party of two, you might share a table with others, but they have spacers so you don't feel like you're eating together. Reservations were easy to make. You email in your requested sitting and someone will get back to you shortly. We were able to get in a little ahead of schedule and start the adventure. Wines were reasonably priced and they had a good variety of cocktails. We hadn't had French onion soup on our trip, so we ordered it as an appetizer. Sometimes it can get a little salty, but these were very well blended. Sacree Fleur seems to be known for their steak and frites, so we ordered the steak for two. Steak comes out on a sizzling platter. You can turn the pieces over to keep cooking until your preferred temperature. It was quite succulent and the fries were well prepared. There are two dipping sauces and some salt to season your meal. We hadn't a great time and way too much food :)

We should've noticed something was wrong when no one was inside. When the waiter (lone person working along with cook) gave us the menu, my wife and I stared at each other completely confused. The menu looked nothing like the ones on this website and featured Italian food items, like spaghetti, arroz con pollo or mozarella. I asked him about frog legs or the onion soup.
