    Arc de Triomphe right near the restaurant

    Great find for a quick breakfast right near the Arc de Triomphe. For just a few euros you can get an amazing croissant, 1/2 a baguette with butter and ham, orange juice and a coffee. For a few euros more, add a tasty order of scrambled eggs. This restaurant was very clean and the woman who served us was very friendly and fluent in English and French.

    Really great breakfast outside of the Arch in Paris. Cold glass of beer was a great touch

    Fun and close to Arc de Triumph. Looking at it as I type this review. Food was good. Glasses not truly clean. Bubbles sticking to inside of the glass means glass not as clean as it should be. Waiter coughed into his hand. Yuck.

    The service at this restaurant is terrible. They do not give recommendation to tourist while this is definitely located at a tourist spot. They have multi languages menu which is good. But the waiter was not too helpful. I was clearly given too much wines for myself, and he should be warned me or clarify the order. How would an Asian guy eating a lunch alone would drink 1 liter worth of alcohol? The pork sausage came cooked very burned with a lack of presentation.

    We were in the area visiting the Arc de Triomphe in Paris and decided to drop by Le Cristal. The food here was very basic (I think it's because it's located right in tourist-land) lol. I ordered a Croque Madame sandwich and Escargot, and the Mister ordered Foie Gras which came with a side of two white toasts. Nothing stood out to us, it was very average and tasted just A-OK. The service was actually good, our server spoke English and was very friendly, not snooty at all.

Luca was my server and he was very welcoming in hospitable to this weary traveler. I sat on the patio towards the end of the row so I could take in the atmosphere and people watch a bit. Luca Recommended a meal with a mashed potatoes and sausage with French bread and salad and it sounded tasty so I gave it a go! All the flavors went well together; mashed potatoes were well seasoned the sausage had a good flavor, and the salad with the vinaigrette added a crunch in an extra flavor as well. I drank a French hard cider while I gobbled up my meal, which also was new for me and tasted great after I was done my meal. Luke brought me a shot with rum and some other ingredients, including lemon that definitely hit the spot after a good meal.I recommend Brasserie Belanger for anyone near GDN Train Station that enjoys great food and patio dining. Cheers!

The restaurant itself isn't small, but really not big, so it's definitely worthwhile to make a reservation at least a week or so on advance, otherwise you're pushing your luck. Everyone ordered steak frites (2 rump steak, 2 flank) and no one was disappointed. Steaks were cooked to order, although medium here in France is more like medium rare in the States, just be advised. The restaurant itself is lively and fun with lots of chatting, laughing and good times being shared. Desserts were Crème Brûlée and Apple Crumble, neither of which were disappointing. We definitely enjoyed our dinner and would likely return again. This time with a reservation made well in advance.

We were seated at a table facing the smaller street with IKEA City. Not much people-watching happened given shops were already closed in the evening and thus less people shopping on the streets. We ordered the croque monsieur and croque madame. The difference between the two is that the croque madame comes with a fried sunny side up egg. This was heavy but so yummy! The egg yolk makes a great sauce to soak up this cheesy and hammy toast. This came with a salad on the side which had a vinegar based dressing coated on it. The only thing is we had miscommunication with the waitress about drinks. We asked for water (l'eau) but they gave us distilled water in a bottle which costed us 8 euros. I learned it's important to learn to specifically ask for carafe d'eau (tap water in French) to get free water! Felt a bit bad that we were overcharged. Just gotta be careful with communicating next time. All in all, I enjoyed trying the amazing sandwich that is a croque madame. Wanted to give 4 stars for the food but the bottled water still irks me.

First off, this is an iconic historic hotel. Beautiful location at Place Vendome. My friend and I were hungry and on a weekday night and randomly walked in and were promptly seated. I'm not sure how it normally goes here regarding wait times and reservations. The French onion soup and lobster rolls were divine. The server would walk around with a bread box and would bring the whole box to the table and you could pick from there. We had cereal bread and an onion focaccia. Amazing! They gave us complimentary chocolates too. The vibes and ambience are immaculate. It looks like a classic fancy restaurant. There was a piano player too! They gave us a little chair for our purses. This was a lovely Parisian experience. Highly recommend.
