The outside seating is nice but I'd keep walking, your in Paris and there are so many better options. The food was average at best. My husband orders the ham and cheese w fried egg sandwich. First time out it was an omelette. Then was told they didn't carry ham. Showed waiter the menu. Oh ok. Came out second time with a tiny piece of toast and no ham. Ok sorry 1 bite worth. No fried egg. So we gave it a one, just like the amount of ham.

Service was great and food was amazing. Visiting from the states and found a good spot. Will definitely be back! Highly suggest.

English menu

One of the popular cafes to hang out by the Eiffel Tower. We've just gotten here and needed some sustenance. Most of the cafes around here were super crowded, inside and out, and tons of smoking. Le Coq was one of the cafes that wasn't overly crowded. We were seated right away and they did check our Health Pass before we went in. Finally, food! I had to order the escargot and the Croque Monsieur, make that two Croques! The ambiance was really nice, everyone looks dressed up but that's just how Parisians dress! Love it! We just got off the plane, checked into our hotel, and just pooped and needed food. Hospitality was great and they made sure we were taken care of, food and drink. The escargot was delicious along with the little bread sticks. My partner loved the Croque so did I, but since I got motion sickness earlier, the smell of cheese was a bit pungent for my nose at the moment. The side salad was really good and it was almost cleansing my palette. We were definitely satisfied and we'd recommend this place!

Cucumber Carpaccio

Le Coq has a crazy nice decor with a ton of very nice outdoor seating options. This place is located near the Trocadero which is cool because it's on your way to see the tower. I would classify this place as a bit more upscale the most of the casual dining options. The outdoor seating was nice, a bit too many smokers and the meal served was easy on the eyes and delicious to the taste. Ordered the shrimp risotto which was portioned correctly and pretty good along with the cucumber carpaccio which was delicious! They also have a couple of awesome desserts that are worthy of trying. Overall, not a 5 star experience but a solid 4... Pros- Location Service Menu options Wine menu Modern decor Music Outdoor seating Cons- Pricey Cramped outdoor seating Lots of smokers Small bush decor blocks people watching views

Chicken roll

My first dining experience in Paris! Gosh it was great! Smack in the area of the Eiffel Tower. The services was wonderful. To my fellow Americans, don't worry the servers speak English and they also provide an English menu upon request. There is an outdoor area if you'd like to people watch while dining. But keep in mind the French smoke a lot so there will be someone smoking out there. Nothing was at all rushed. We enjoyed a three course meal bite by bite. We started with chicken rolls before diving into our main course. The main course came out about maybe 25-30mins after our appetizers were cleared. Don't dine in Paris with an American attitude. Clearly it's about the art of dining in this city. For dessert I went with the macaroon with pistachio and raspberry, my partner had the crackers cheesecake. Both were mouth watering delicious. The whole experience was roughly 2hrs and it could be a little more if we wanted to. Now if you're on a budget we paid $138euro total. If that's go high up on your budget don't worry there are plenty of places near by.

We had dinner at Le Coq our final night in Paris because I was dying for something "healthy" and our hotel conceirge recommended it. We had looked at their menu a few days earlier and I decided I could do Le Coq so off we went. We were promptly sat at a small round table just on the other side of their glass walled patio space filled with about 300 smokers. Our waitress was not friendly, nor was she prompt, but I've been led to understand this is common in Europe. I ordered a starter of green beans with balsamic and some mushrooms and tomatoes. The beans were cold but it was very good and I devoured it because I was in need of something green in my life after all the bread and meat I'd been eating. I ordered the salmon with a side salad as my entree while my husband ordered the penne pasta. My salmon was good and the side salad was huge and tossed in a vinaigrette dressing so I enjoyed more greens! Our waitress brought bread once we had ordered and it was OK but it wasn't the best bread I've ever had. The pace of our meal was slow and it took a long time to get the check. The food wasn't bad - in fact it was some of the most healthy we'd had in all of Paris - but the service wasn't good at all - her attitude was poor - she was slow - and just overall we didn't feel welcomed here. Perhaps because we're American or perhaps it's just the cultural difference between service in the US and in Europe. Who knows - either way - we paid and got out. I'd eat here again if I was in Paris and nearby because their menu options are good for my diet - but it wasn't fabulous by any means. I think it's more of a hotspot night spot for drinkers and smokers. The patio view is neat because it's in the middle of a bustling intersection and circle where you can people watch just ahead of the park.

Le Comptoir de la Gastronomie - An amazing French onion soup...

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.
