Easily accessible by public transportation but we arrived by taxi from the airport. ***EXPERIENCE*** The staff was friendly and accommodating even though we had large suitcases with us and there wasn't much space. They found a spot and let us set our suitcases to the side out of the way. The server checked on us to see if he could bring us anything else after lunch. ***PRICE*** Not to expensive for Paris! The lunch was around 10€ and a glass of rosé is only 4€! Coffee is just 1€ or 2. ***FOOD*** I got the croque madame but without meat. Basically a grilled cheese with an egg on top. It came with fries or a salad. I also had an espresso and a glass of rosé! Everything was delicious! ***CONCLUSION*** Great little brasserie with friendly and welcoming staff & great food- French as well as things like fish and chips and other dishes. The price is also great for Paris, and the price of wine is great in general! Haha

How was flying out Charles de Gaulle Airport the next day and I just arrived from Frankfurt Germany…read moreby train when I looked up a French restaurant near the Gard du Nords train station and found BB. 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.

Overall, we really enjoyed our meal as well as the restaurant people dining around us seem to really enjoy the space. I look forward to adding this as a place to visit on my next Paris layover.

Le P'tit Wagram -- A Lovely French Find…read more Le P'tit Wagram is a warm, welcoming spot with authentic French charm. I tried the French onion soup, which was delicious, perfectly rich and comforting, and the duck confit, cooked beautifully with tender meat and crisp skin. One of the best meals I've had in Paris! The service was friendly, the atmosphere cozy, and the whole experience felt relaxed and genuinely enjoyable. A great place for a delicious French meal.

The place was a random find, close to La Defense where I…read morespent a few weeks for work. I was looking for a classic Brasserie and signed-up when the owner told me the chef was Japanese. I live in California and only eat Mediterranean style food but also have great influences from Asia. This turned out to be the perfect place for my taste. The flavors were rich and subtle, and the execution pitch perfect. I can't say how it compares to other French Michelin stars but it's hands down better than anything I ever experienced in California. I am still grappling with how tantalizing this was.

I rang to book for the St Valentine evening - think it was actually the chef who answered - anyway,…read morehappy conversation...definitely not a St Valentine meal but the usual menu (after last year's disaster at La Guingette, one of our favourite places usually, we avoid anything "special") We arrived, coats taken, welcoming and cosy reception and atmosphere. I thought the menu a little small We settled on a Viognier and a Brouilly while we decided. In the end we both chose the smoked salmon, my partner went for the piece du boucher (bavette with a sort of mash, mushrooms and a sauce...and a surcharge) and I chose the souris d'agneau with mash. Accompanied by a 50cl Malbec; then coffee I thought the salmon was well smoked but my partner - who is Scandinavian - thought too much so. Ignoring that, it was delicious But we both left rather disappointed...mainly because the bavette, as is so often the case in France with any steak, was was as tough as old boots (and too red for me in any event) ...sorry from the waitress when she asked how our meal was, doesn't really cut it.. As it was, my partner left at least 3/4s of it. My souris was fine but needed some vegetables of some description; it looked a little lonely. I seem otherwise to have chosen well, plenty of meat and very tender Thought it was or had been a Rostang place, but not so sure. Shame, nearly but not quite

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!

As a Chinese, I understood more than 50% of the conservations (Chinese). Which doesn't mean anything about the food. Just observation. Onion soup - 2 stars. First, the cheese failed to emit the baked, melted gruyere cheese, there is no aroma at all. I don't think they used gruyere cheese. May be mozzarella cheese. The worst part was the bread in the soup. It tasted stale which ruin the flavor of the soup. I had to finish without the bread. Escargot - Another disappointment. What made escargots special was the garlic butter and herb. Here, there were the herbs, no garlic, and French is famous with their butter but I taste oil but not buttery. Other places I actually get excited dipping the bread into the garlic butter but not here. Pan seared Foie gras - The quality of Foie Gras was definitely there. It's not as well seared as I hope but they managed to cook it through without overcooking it. The size of Foie Gras is kind of scary, it's like a small piece of rib eye steak. With just the onion soup and Foie Gras, I could barely swallow anything. Generous portion.
