We did not eat at this establishment, but came to view one of the 2 last standing windmills in Monmatre. Thus windmill has been painted by Renoir, Van Gogh, and Picasso. The windmill was built in 1622 and used to grind flour. Conflicts in 1814 and again in 1870 saw 2 killed and nailed to the wings of this windmill. Follow down the winding street to catch a glimpse of the other windmill, Moulin du Radet, built in 1717. Stroll down to 52 Rue Lepic, the home van Gogh resided in for 2 years with his art dealer brother. read more

Stopped here while in town for n a Normandy visit. Staff is friendly, lots of outdoor seating, and a small indoor area. We had an Americane Crepe, French onion soup, Gazpacho St. Jacques. All were different than expected, but good. Finished with crepes for dessert. Definitely a decent meal for the small town it is in. read more

We stepped right into Parisian history when we stepped into this beautiful restaurant. It was incredible to see the place that has inspired so many famous artworks. I had onion soup and mussels which were amazing. They are tiny mussels and there were probably 100 in there. Didn't even finish half. The portions are very big. Our waiter Yann was so warm and welcoming. His service was phenomenal and really made Our experience that much better! read more

I had the deep fried prawns with sweet chili sauce as my starter and the Duck Confit as my entree. Both were absolutely delicious. The duck was not greasy at all and the skin was cooked great. We had the best server. He was so nice and made my mom's birthday dinner special. read more

Good service! Delish food, worth it! It wasn't crowded before noonish on a Monday. After walking around the basilica, make your way down and you won't miss the outside windmill of the resto. Thanks to my sister for the treat and showing us around Paris as always! read more

Very Frenchie in the heart of montmartre. It has a windmill and outdoor seating out of a postcard, Any questions? Besides Ala carte they have a pre- fix menu. $39 for appetizer, entree and dessert, $31 without the appetizer. The ones we like were the: onion soup, foei gras, duck confit and steak au poivre(chef suggested- not on the menu). The lamb was ok. You can skip the coq au vin. For dessert we had crème brûlée and crepe suzette both excellent. Why 4 stars? Food was good not great(foei gras was excellent though) service was a little rushed. read more

A bit of a tourist bucket list item and while it's generally all foreign tourists having a nice meal, it's still good quality. Service is prompt, courteous and helpful. Ambiance is of an older French restaurant of good quality. Tables do end up quite close together but food is really good. We'd go again but there are so many better high quality restaurants in Paris that this feels like a bit of a cop out. read more

I had dinner here and it was pretty underwhelming. I started with the fried shrimp which I didn't realize was just shrimp tempura. It was too salty and too greasy. It was also mostly just breading. The coq au vin wasn't much better. The pasta it came in was overcooked and mushy. The chicken was dry which is strange because it's cooked in a soup. The chocolate mousse was ok but way too sweet and felt powdery on my tongue which made me think it was a packaged, easy to make mousse. I was worried that this restaurant would be gimmicky and a tourist trap because it has a noticeable windmill on top and I was unfortunately right. read more

They were very accommodating and found a seat for us right next to the window. We spent a lot of time trying to figure out why so many people were staring in -seemingly at us. Then we realized this was a famous restaurant and on all the tours. Pretty cool to have dined at the same place as so many of the most famous artists in all of history. The food also hit the spot after our long flight from Minnesota. We were trying to push through the jet lag so lots of tea and coffee and some French food really helped. I believe it was the happy hour specials and warm indoor seating that drew us in. read more

Stunning restaurant close to the Sacré-Cœur basilica in Montmartre. If you're looking for a haven from the crowds at Place du Tertre, you've come to the right spot! The restaurant is beautiful inside, peppered with pothos plants and brush on the ceiling. The foie gras pate was OUT OF THIS WORLD. Super friendly staff who dealt with our poor French! read more

After walking by this restaurant we really wanted to eat at the same place that was painted in Renoirs painting of the same name. The interior is nice but looks nothing like the painting. It was a pretty good meal, I thought they could have used more seasoning. Nevertheless it was an experience for us as Moulin de la Galette is one of our favourite paintings and we even have a replica of it in our house. We ordered the frog leafs, beef Bourgignon, French onion soup, fish and duck confit dishes. I would say the fish was the best, then French onion soup, duck confit, beef bourgignon and frog legs. Service was pretty good. For those that complained about lack of service, my observation in France has been that lots of patrons like to lounge for long hours at restaurants and cafes so waiters may be leaving customers alone so they don't feel pressured to leave. Whenever I made eye contact or flagged anyone, things moved quickly. Anyways, it was a touristy yet memorable meal for us read more

If it could put 0 stars I would. A joke of a restaurant. I went with my family and we all agreed that our meals lacked flavor and were extremely boring. I wish I seen the reviews about it being a tourist traps before we went. It was also our most expensive meal during our 10 days stay and for what? The staff was not friendly and it overall was a very poor experience. Don't be fooled by the alluring exterior this place is not worth your time or money. read more

Nice little restaurant near Montremartre, it has a famous background as it was in a Renoir painting once upon a time! We didn't have reservation and they told us we just had to be done by 7:30, which was easily done. For appetizer, we had burrata with egg and mushrooms, which was tasty. Nice and earthy. For main, my wife (vegetarian) had the mushroom pasta, which was tasty but a bit repetitive from the appetizer. I had the lamb, which hit the spot perfectly, as I wanted something traditionally French. We didn't get dessert and just had a glass of wine. Service was great and everything was clean. Good spot! read more

Absolutely loved the food and unique mix of flavors, as well as the incredibly fun atmosphere! We coincidentally visited during the Rugby World Cup, and most of the guests that day were supporting Ireland's team. Their enthusiasm and singing were contagious and made for a unique dining experience. The woman who welcomed us was rude and initially told us we couldn't dine there because they were full. We verified online and were able to secure a reservation an hour later. She said we were being sneaky (???) for trying to dine with them again, but apologized after we showed her the reservation confirmation. This was so unpleasant that we almost cancelled, but we didn't because we were hungry and already waited a long time. The reason for the high stars is because the food was truly delicious, our waitress was wonderful, and that particular day was very entertaining as the Irish team fans sang and celebrated. (I don't currently follow rugby, but this was entertaining.) A particular highlight was the ceviche, which was interestingly paired with sorbet (!), pickled red onion, paprika, blueberries and raspberry, and other spices. This combination seemed strange, but it was my absolute favorite dish in all of the places we visited in Paris! Truly memorable. read more

We were warned not to dine in Montmartre because all of the restaurants are tourist traps. We saw the Michelin Guide approval sticker and it looked fairly classy, so we did not heed our hotel's warning and ate here anyways. A total mistake. The red flags ... a prixe fixe menu, a sign out front giving the history of windmills and every other diner being British or American or Chinese. Also the waiter offered us a menu which had cheeseburgers listed on it when we said that the prixe fixe 3 courses might be too much food. Cheeseburgers and fine French dining usually dont go hand in hand. We sat outside in a fairly tacky patio area complete with multi-colored Christmas lights which had an oddly California type of vibe. The diners were all well dressed, probably because of the prices. The food, we both agreed, tasted like wedding food or casino buffet food. No love went into the preparation or ingredients. The duck a la orange was rubbery and overcooked. It tasted like someone had put in on a BBQ grill and left it too long. (We were told it was served 'rare and pink ... or cooked through'. I opted for cooked through as pink duck is horrifying.) The sauce was bland, watery and contained what looked like canned mandarin orange segments. In addition, it came with a potato cake which was raw in the middle and burned black on the edges. It lacked any sort of taste beyond starchy raw potato. The beef borginone came in its own pot and was basically a chewy cheap cut of meat which tasted like pot roast you had at a friend's house growing up. Again, a watery sauce that in no way resembled fine French cooking. It was more like a stew prepared in a big batch and ladeled out through the night. The chocolate mousse was brought to the table in a giant bowl by the water and scooped out and literally thrown from the spoon onto the plate in messy heaps. It looked like dog poo ... this was among the worst presentations I've ever seen in a restaurant. The strawberry dessert was simply whipped cream, dry strawberries and a small merengue. The waitstaff was friendly enough because clearly they cater to Americans and Brits, so they don't have that typical French attitude towards tourists. But overall, we felt like we were at a wedding and received food prepared in big batches with inexpensive ingredients and doled out vs. made to order. You'd be much better off going to the main street in Montmartre than this place. While the atmosphere was nice, the food quality was subpar for France and I felt if I was at a banquet hall in New Jersey or Kansas, I could have received the same quality. We felt as though we ruined our first night out in Paris by going here. read more

First meal in Paris and it was yummy. I was nervous to order a steak because I do not enjoy my meat with blood. While the waitress did look flabbergasted at my request, she did not give me a hard time and the chef cooked it beautifully. Great flavor and tender chew. The fries I could have done without, nothing to be excited about. We then got the crème brûlée and it was nice and creamy with a great crust. Also the ambience is gorgeous! read more

We went inside and stood at the door waiting for someone to come over or to seat us because we didn't know whether to seat ourselves or not. We finally walked over to two men and asked if we seated ourselves and they said yes and we asked if we could sit outside and they said yes. We sat outside and waited about 15 minutes staring through the windows and made eye contact with people numerous of times and no one ever came out. Finally someone said that we'd be helped in just a few minutes. After waiting another 10 minutes it turns out they didn't have the one thing we wanted. Guess they don't like tourists... read more

Came here for my birthday in Montmartre- a bit touristy but cool enough to not skip over it. Very close to Sacré Cœur and has a gorgeous exterior with the windmill. The bœuf bourguignon was good and I heard good reviews about the fish as well. The set menu is a ton of food! The crème brûlée was sadly burnt on the bottom but the top and the middle tasted good. If you are polite to your server and attempt to communicate in French then you will have good service! Don't expect everyone to speak English and then be rude if they don't. read more

The food was delicious and the location is super cute! We ordered the fish dish on the menu and had cheese for dessert. The reason I gave only 3 stars is because we felt like they were kicking us out of this nice restaurant. The owner or whoever the guy in charge was also very fake and almost laughing at us. Every dish was provided with such a nice display, but when it was brought out the almost slapped the chocolate on my plate like they did not care. read more

We were looking for a nice restaurant in Paris, last minute on a Sunday night. It turns out that a fair amount of restaurants close early, so we were happy to find that the windmill restaurant was open late. The one caveat is that the garden terrace closes at 10:30 to accommodate the neighbors and keep the noise down, we finished our meal and we're able to have our dessert and coffee in the front of the restaurant. So firstly, if you haven't been to this neighbor in Paris, it's definitely worth a trip. There are bars and restaurants all over as you wind up the hill toward the basilica, Sacré-Cœur. After dining it's quite a short walk to check out the church and there's another little neighborhood of restaurants and bars with open air seating just up the hill, a great place to have a drink or two and people watch. Back to the restaurant and food. It was simply terrific. Many options, Fresh flavors. I had the lamb which was terrific, they recommended to eat it "rare" which was honestly more rare than in my comfort zone, but it was great. I try to be super open-minded about food when I travel and asked the server what's the best way to eat the lamb. read more

We were excited to try the place as we had heard a lot about it leading up to our trip to France. The windmill outside is really cool but inside it is decorated horribly. Stuffed toy animals and fake plants, it was just weird. The service was not good, not bad just ok. The menu states you get entree, main and dessert for €39, that was not the case. We were charged double that amount. We barely ate our food, it was absolutely disgusting. My girlfriend got the mussels that looked like they were cooked in water not wine, they had no flavor. I forgot what I got, maybe the beef, but I just remember it was dry with no flavor. We got the check before dessert and went to grab food elsewhere. It's like Applebees opened up a French themed restaurant in Paris. Would never recommend this place to anyone. read more

We ordered the ceviche as a starter and it came with lemon sorbet and berries, I'm sorry I've really never in my life seen such a thing and for good reason. This place is fine if you want to have an overpriced cheese plate and cocktail in the neighborhood.

Was expecting great things from this place. It started out bad when they brought the wrong drink out for my daughter - which isn't a bad thing, it happens. The waitress was admant that she didn't get it wrong, but we all were like, yeah sorry. Then the head waiter actually came out and asked if I ordered it and just didn't like it and then changed my order. I said no, we ordered the mojito, so he said, so my waiter is lying, when she said you ordered the this cocktail? Maybe it's the French way, but it wasn't a great way to start a meal. Then the oysters came out. Poorly shucked and not on ice. Bad! My kids ordered the mussels. The broth was pure wine. Not fully cooked at all. Yuck!!! We hoped that the crime brûlée was going to redeem them, but alas it was just fine. Nothing special. A little too airy. Then after waiting for 20 minutes for our check when we asked for it the waiter was like "Please?" Maybe I'm just too American, but this was the worst experience I had in Paris. read more

This was the last night for my family and I in Paris. After researching a few places I came across Moulin. I made last minute reservations for five. The area is beyond amazing. When we arrived we were treated and greeted nicely. The food and the service was superb. We enjoyed our meal immensely. We speak two languages Spanish and English, I must say the servers were patient with us and they spoke English to us. It was a perfect way to end our last day in Paris. I will recommend this place to anyone and I hope to come back in the future. read more

This is my first time in Paris so I decided to check out a drawing tour. The guide ended the tour at the windmill and I was intrigued by its history. I also happened to be hungry. I usually don't expect much from touristy restaurants but I was super impressed by Le Moulin. They have a lot of English-speaking waiters so ordering was super easy and straightforward. I was surprised by how good the service was. They actually smiled a lot and were all super nice even though I'm a stupid American and forgot to say bonjour monsieur when I first came in. I ordered the roasted chicken with mashed potatoes and creme brûlée. Both were amazing. This was definitely the best meal I've ever had in Paris. The chicken was crunchy on the outside and not dry at all because it's sitting on top of a puddle of super delicious sauce. The mashed potatoes were so much better than most thanksgiving mashed potatoes I've had in America. I didn't want to order dessert because I'm not a huge fan of sweets but I had to pick either appetizer/entree or entree/dessert. I was expecting the creme brûlée to be way too sweet but it was actually not bad. Probably the most tolerable creme brûlée I've ever had. Again, I'm don't like sweets that much so I'm sure most people would love it. It's a little pricey but when you're in Paris you just have to yolo a bit. read more

Okay, super nice spot on the river. We both had galettes and they were flavorful and quite filling a must in Bayeux, in my opinion.

We were actually going to another of our favorite restaurants for a very special occasion dinner but it had an unreasonable wait time. As we were walking back to our car we passed Le Moulin de la Galette as we had so many times before. As a spur of the moment thing, we stuck our head in to find there was no wait time, and we were pleasantly surprised to be seated immediately. The ambiance was incredibly delightful... cheerful and fun. The menu gave us a variety of wonderful options. Our server was knowledgeable and helpful and charming. Our food was perfect... delicious! This ended up being so much better than our original choice. I can't wait to return again! read more

Such a historic and popular venue. It's charming. Our dining experience lived up to the hype. We opted for the dinner special, appetizer and main for me, main and dessert for my wife. I had the deep fried king prawns with sweet chili sauce and they were eye rolling good as was the sea bass. My wife had the filet cooked to perfection and so tender a knife was barely needed. She finished with her favorite, Crème Brûlée. A lovely French Chardonnay with my meal. Polite, professional service. If you're in this beautiful part of Paris, this restaurant is a treat! read more

Made a reservation for 1 here on my last night in Paris, somewhere down the line there was a miscommunication and they thought that I was waiting on someone else. So make sure you confirm! Other than that, the food was really great. I opted for their angus steak and strawberry dessert. The steak was done perfectly and the dessert, albeit simple, was really delicious. Especially with the merengue shards. The service was great, atmosphere and decor was pristine and elegant, would definitely come back during my next stay in Paris! read more

I have been trying the chicken dishes here in Paris during my two week stay because I've been told French chickens taste better than what we typically eat in the US. The chicken here was very good.

Just WOW! The flavors in all the dishes we tried were just beautifully balanced. One of my favorite restaurants in Paris. Lovely knowledgeable staff, relaxed & comfortable interior with larger tables, good space between them and plush comfortable chairs. We did a tour from Paris Walks of Montmartre, that I highly recommend, then we made reservations for a relaxed lunch. It was a perfect end to a perfect day. I had a pan roasted cod dish that I would not let anyone at my table taste because I wanted it ALL. It was melt in your mouth amazing!

2 stars for ambience only. The food was OK, nothing to write home about ( especially if you are from a foodie city like ours SF). The service was poor.
