    escargot beautiful
    Tiffany D.

    This is a TINY restaurant in the middle of Montmartre with HUGE heart. We got the escargot appetizer and french onion soup. Both were beautiful and savory. I got the steak and frites. My husband got the duck. Everything was exceptional from beginning to end. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 is because this is not a place for kids as they have a limited menu and no kids meal. It's not the restaurants fault, but mine for not having a babysitter. They also have their own wine. Go here for a date and have an extra drink for me since I had my kiddos.

    Delicious dinner! Their dishes are a bit untraditional in preparation and ingredients but very well-executed. I loved the use of lots of greens and vegetables in their dishes which were very well-cooked. Carpaccio was a hit, Lamb Leg was amazingly tender, and the Duck Confit was also good. Did not have a miss maybe except the Escargot mainly because I like the traditional style better. 10/10 would recommend this spot!

    Never come to this place, rude waiter attached in pic we had a reservation and they denied us just because we didn't have an even number of people whatever that means. I even have proof of evidence of reservation.

    Food 3.5 stars, presentation 5, ambiance 4, service 4. Gorgeous presentation, as evidenced by my meal and watching several pass by me. As for food, it was good; much, much better than the tourist trash nearby. That said, fries were a touch soggy, the steak was a tad overdone for my taste, and they didn't ask how I'd like it, and I forgot to clarify. The sauce was good but not magnificent. Service was polite and efficient. Bathrooms: Downstairs. Small, as expected, but decent room, and clean.

    Food was delicious and vibes were great, perfect for a pre-Moulin Rouge outing. House wine was great and we got a few dishes to share. Service was lovely, Sashka took great care of us. A must stop in Monmarte!

    Fun dinner experience in Montmartre neighborhood in Paris. We had dinner with two colleagues and their wives. We were able to place a reservation and ate on the upper floor. Service was top notch and very attentive. The server insisted I should try foie gras so I did. It was ok but next time I'd order the steak without. It does add a creamy sauce like texture to the filet. French onion had good flavor but it's not the best French onion I've had. I'd say it was a 3 star. When I order French onion soup I was cheese oozing off the sides. The pavlova was a work of art and had so many flavors popping in my mouth definitely worth it.

    Amazing service and great Soupe à l'oignon. One of the best if not the best I've had. Rustic and friendly and fun staff. Great small atmosphere in th heart of mountmarte. Must try spot

    Came to Le Poulbot as we had planned to visit Montmartre as soon as we got into Paris. Made sure to have a reservation ahead of time! We got here a little late, but it wasn't a problem. This was definitely a traditional outdoor French dining experience. Ordered the beef bourguignon, onion soup, foie gras, escargot, and beef carpaccio as entrées. Of these, my favorite was definitely the beef bourguignon and beef carparccio. Also had the strawberry pavlova as dessert, which was beautifully presented and tasted even better! Price-wise, not the best relative to how much food we got, but it was still solid. Staff here were alright. One of the servers curiously tried to sit us at a four person table to share with other diners, to which we quickly axed that idea. Didn't even make sense to us as there were plenty of other seats available. Other than that, they were friendly enough. Glad I tried this as it is good food in a popular area.

    Carpaccio and beef stew.

    We stumbled on this place while visiting Montmartre and it was a fabulous lunch. Everything was tasty and well-presented. Exactly what me and my lady were looking for. Merci!!!!!

    Seasonal crumble - strawberry with strawberry ice cream
    Julie P.

    This restaurant was recommended to us by the concierge at our hotel, and what a great recommendation it was! All the food was delicious. We started with a mixed cheese and charcuterie board, which was heaping with a nice selection of meats and cheeses, as well as small pickles and salad. This was the first time I'd had pate, and I really enjoyed it. For a main I got the piece of beef. It was covered in a herb butter and it was delicious. A very flavorful piece of meat. My boyfriend got the duck, we're both big duck fans, and this one really stood out. The salad and fries that came with both were also very nice. Maybe these were the best fries we came across. There was also a flawless dessert, a strawberry crumble with strawberry ice cream. It was so light, flavorful, and the textures were all on point. The two servers at this restaurant were also excellent. Very funny and sweet. One thing to note is the restaurant is extremely small. Maybe half the indoor tables require the table to be moved to let someone sit down on the other side. For me, it added character, but for some it could be very uncomfortable.

    Ambiance was cozy, but service itself was slow. Had a party of four and the food did not come until 40 minutes+ passed. The food itself was pretty good, perfect because Paris was chilly when we were there. The Onion soup was by far the best that day, but in terms of overall service and food, it wasn't anything incredible.

    Exterior with a lot more tables!

    Our favorite place in Paris for a duck confit! We originally stumbled on this cute restaurant in the Montemarte district two years ago- at the time, it was a small store with a few tables inside and outside. The duck was so good we decided to venture back this year and we're delighted to see that they had expanded their operation - adding many more tables outside. The location is perfect and the food was as good as I remember. I had the same thing- french onion soup (salty, cheesy goodness) and the duck confit - duck was a liiiiittttlllee drier than I remember it from last time, but the flavor was exactly as exquisite as I remembered it to be. Still our go to place for duck in Paris, at a super reasonable price point. I would highly recommend checking this place out!

    This is such a charming small restaurant. Our server was so alive and fun, she made our meal amazing with her beautiful personality. This might have been our best meal visiting Paris. The food was fresh, delicious and perfect. Our server recommended drinks for us and they were all amazing. Can't wait to go back!

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 were so looking forward to the frog legs, onion soup and other delicacies pictured. We got there and the sign was just as it was with the same name -- Au Pied du Sacre Coeur. 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. He looked confused and just said no. Out of respect for him, we just ordered the charcuterie, which featured stale bread and a few slices of meat taken from my local grocery store in the U.S. Also -- they claimed to not accept any international credit cards.
