Only giving 3 stars because of the good service and friendly waitstaff. As someone that loves French cuisine and has been to France, specifically Paris numerous times, I found myself very disappointed in the food here. The steak with bone marrow had little to no flavor, luckily the fries were good. The lobster bisque was very fishy and smelled like it went bad. My sister and father couldn't eat it after trying it. We felt bad sending it back, so we didn't say anything to the server. The Caesar salad came with hard boiled eggs and shredded chicken. Didn't have a whole lot of flavor either, and the dressing tasted like mayo. Not a fan of this restaurant. You can find much better options, and I highly recommend doing your research before booking a reservation at restaurants near the Eiffel tour. read more

The food is quite good, even if the scallops were horribly overpriced for the tiny portion and the steak was similarly tiny. The spinach salad was literally spinach and dressing but it was so tasty that I wasn't even offended! The bread was *delicious*. The service is brisk and attentive. The restaurant is oddly long and decor is somewhat sterile, but it works! We liked it. The location was convenient for us, and the street it's on made for a charming walk after dinner. read more

Came to dinner here at 8PM on a Monday night while traveling in Paris. We didn't have a reservation but got seated outside at a high top table right away once we arrived even though the place was very busy. Super cute bistro on a quiet street near the Eiffel Tower with a very nice/relaxed ambiance. Our waiter was really friendly and gave us very useful information about the daily specials. He was very patient with our broken French and even taught us a few words. For drinks, we got a small pitcher of white wine that was around 2 glasses per person that we split between two. The wine was good quality, smooth, and refreshing. For food we ordered: Appetizer of the day: the daily special happened to be a delicious roasted eggplant with some tomato, pesto, and burrata. The eggplant was roasted perfectly, had really tender flesh and a very crispy skin. The cool, creamy burrata on top was perfect and balanced the dish well. Cod fillet in bouillabaisse sauce: this dish was very good! Came in a hot casserole (hence why this place is called "Cocotte" as mostly all dishes come in these stone bowls), and had flaky and tender cod with vegetables (peppers, peas, potatoes) in a tomato/paprika/fish sauce. Entree of the day: on Mondays they have a special veal stew (Axoa de veau) which my boyfriend ordered and really enjoyed. It had a tomato sauce that was very flavorful and some potatoes that also came in a hot casserole. The veal was cut in small tender pieces that were lean. The portion size was very nice. Super warm, comforting special and on Mondays it is only 20 euro! Chocolate mousse: please order this, you will not regret it. The mousse was smooth, creamy, and light. It was topped with this homemade granola topping and some chocolate crumbles. Very nice flavor, not too sweet. One of the best mousses I have had. Highly highly recommend this place! It was a wonderful culinary start to our stay in Paris. They had many options for main dishes and the space was really nice. Service was also super friendly and pleasant. Look forward to coming back again in another occasion to try more of their delicious dishes. read more

Usually I don't leave negative feedback but this time it was necessary to help others, especially Americans, do not get into such a bad experience! My wife and I read reviews on yelp for this place and walked for good hour to have dinner. Instead we got into weird "welcoming" situations. They refused to sit us because all the tables are for 4 people and we had a party of 2 only! The owner of this restaurant is very rude. Same his staff. Don't go there. If you are in the area, right around the corner is a nice tasty and friendly place named "Le Champ de Mars"! We end up there and had really good food and service! read more

All I gotta say is I loved my pigeon platter . It was cooked medium rare and it came out delicious. Tender and reminded me of a cross between beef and chicken . The fluid saucey sauce that it came with was balanced very well and it was not salty one bit. The accompanying veggies dressed it up well. The foie gras is duck and it's in pate form . For me personally I'm not a big fan of the pate form but I did find the beauty in this form. It reminded me of melted butter if you do it right. The scallops was minimal but def packed a punch. The scallops here was fresh and prepared fine dining. Shout out to the Chefs I'm glad I took a dive into this place because the food was good The reviews from prior threw me off. Yes I agree the host can do better with the seating arrangements but heck I came here for the food Service was good and punctual. Refilled water and brought out the bread. Waiter also gave some recommendations and explained their chef dinner specials Overall food was good as they have two managements working. One in the front and one in the kitchen making sure everything comes out as it should. Thank you for dinner read more

One of our best meals in Paris! Wonderful, welcoming staff with excellent service. You can tell they really pride themselves on their quality of food and service, which makes all the difference. We stopped in for a lunch and ordered the half caesar salad and sea scallops with spinach to share. Both were fantastic and so incredibly fresh. The Caesar had perfectly cooked hard boiled eggs and thinly sliced chicken in it with nice, small, flavorful croutons. The dressing was perfect and you can tell it was homemade. I love that they weren't skimpy with the dressing. Sometimes restaurants only give you a little but this salad was dressed to perfection. Really enjoyed the small, close-nit ambiance. They offer bar seating and also high top table seating. Wish I could pack this restaurant with me because I would definitely be a regular! read more

Les Cocottes - Caesar and scallops. Sooo delicious! - Bistros Near Me - Paris, 01

The restaurant is pretty close to the Eiffel Tower, about a 5 minute walk. It is a small narrow restaurant that is minimalist and modern. Half of the restaurant is bar seating and the rest looked like high tables. The food- the best thing here is the beef stew. It has some potatoes, carrots, onions and mushrooms. Some of the smallest brown mushrooms I have ever seen. I would have ordered two of these and skipped the rest of the food I ordered ( steak frites (tough and bland), lobster bisque (just ok and kind of fishy), Cesar salad(boring)). The meal will come with a cold baguette. If it was warm, it would have elevated the meal. The service was very good. I had a youngish gentleman that was very helpful and pleasant. It also looked like he spoke many languages as I saw him interacting with customers. Be warned that each person at the table needs to order a main dish or two appetizers. Also, no kids menu, so if you have a picky eater they will probably be eating fries and some free bread. read more

A reservation is a must here ... very popular. We were greeted nicely and were seated at the entrance. The menu is small but the choices are perfect. We started we razor clams in a tomato sauce that was delicious ... we then ordered black squid, a chicken and potato plate, baked salmon and a risotto ... and wow, wow ... everything was excellent. The service was friendly and everyone spoke great English and a menu in English was also provided. The wine list is small but packs a punch ... dinner for 4 with wine, 4 mains and 2 desserts was 225 Euros ... well worth it ... read more

yoooooooooo this restaurant is AMAZING. This the first trip to Paris my husband and i have taken. I have to say that of all the palaces that we patronized during our 5 day trip, THIS was the best restaurant we dined in! Located just a couple of blocks from the Eiffel Tower, barely a 10min walk, we saw a packed restaurant with an intrepid menu. Even though we had no reservation we were seated immediately at the bar and received the most excellent service and a thorough explanation of the menu. I ordered chicken and mac, and i know this sounds childish and simple but this was an extrodinary elevated culinary masterpiece! I have never had more delicious chicken or mac n cheese in my life! the sauce that was served with my chicken caused a brief out of body experience . The mac and cheese was phenomenal as well. Absolutely the most memorable and delicious dining experience we have had in Paris read more

Cute little bistro a short walk from the Eiffel Tower. While we did not have a reservation, we were able to be seated right away which was nice. Everyone that came after us seemed to have reservations so I think we got the only walk in table available for two. We shared the Caesar salad and jambon to start. Huge portions for starters, we couldn't even finish them. Very delicious flavors though. Think the salad had a bit too much dressing for my liking. Then we each got the steak frites cooked medium. It was extremely tough and hard to cut. Also huge portion, I regret not sharing. The fries were my favorite fries I've ever eaten, would come back just for those. Everything else was okay, didn't blow me away. read more

Reservations were made in advance per the suggestion of a friend but it appeared that walk-ins were welcomed. Escargot, squid ink pasta, chicken, & pigeon were ordered; all were very delicious and fresh! The restaurant provides complimentary bread but no butter or dipping sauce so it was a bit dry. Prices were reasonable and service was great. Restrooms on site, credit cards accepted, overall vibe was casual. read more

My family and I have been traveling Europe and it's our first night in Paris. The service and food and good, everything tasted great! Unfortunately, when I went to eat my mushrooms, I found a piece of coiled metal from a sponge. It was just the single piece found, however, I have worked in food service and dining before, that metal is from a coiled metal cleaning tool. I got the attention of the host and he immediately took it and went to tell the kitchen. Nothing was done after, no sorry or anything. I understand that it is busy, but something like this should not be accepted or expected from a restaurant of quality. read more

We enjoyed the steak frites and duck confit here. We were seated at the window by the front of the restaurant. It made for great people watching while enjoying the natural light. Service is very efficient and professional. I know this establishment serves the tourist segment but we did enjoy the restaurant. There were a steady stream of tourists coming for dinner so it seems to be a well known and recommended place. We thought it was a very bistro near the Eiffel Tower to recharge and enjoy some great French food in Paris. read more

One of the worst french restaurants. Everything is pre-cooked. Full of Asian tourists. Totally a joke

Food was AWSOME!! Loved everything about this place will definitely come back again! I highly recommend it to everyone!

Sister restaurant to Cafe Constant, though slightly more upscale. Like other reviewers, amazing food and amazing service experienced here. The beef cheeks is a must order. Rich, deep and flavorful broth. The beef checks fork tender and falls apart easily. The carrots sweet. The mushrooms meaty. All of it together ... PERFECTION the ravioli's is light with 3 delicate raviolis in a light, lemony cream and foam sauce. unfortunately I can't recall the name of the dish I ordered but came in a red pepper cream sauce/soup, poached egg, lardon and rocket (arugula). It's complex, rich and then addicting as each bite had a different taste on the tongue. the service was nice and friendly. the setting simple and cute. Was definitely glad to visit read more

Yes yes yes. Great brasserie near the Eiffel Tower. Inside the decor is very charming but not too much room. Foie gras was the best I've ever had in my life. Consumed with plenty of bread. This is a MUST GET! Escargot and steak frites were good, although I've had better. The steak was a bit chewy in all honesty. However service was good and very friendly and welcoming. read more

The host (Damien) on Sunday evening, 11th of September 2022, was an arrogant racist. My wife asked if we can get a table without any reservation. He said he'd check. There were another two who came after us without a reservation. He told us there weren't a table for us and he sat the other group. We asked why they got a table before us and he told us, he had a choice on who to sit and who not to sit. We've been coming to Les Cocottes for a long time and it is unfortunate how the quality of customer service has gone down since Christian Constant left. read more

Excellent food and service. We were in area to see Eiffel at night and decided to try this spot. We made reservations. Everything was delicious. Squid ink risotto, steak, and potatoes stuffed with pig feet. All amazing. The apps we shared were the razor clams and the escargot both delicious. Desserts the crème brûlée and chocolate pie were both also yummy. Highly recommend if you are in the area. Price for three with no alcohol but sparkling and coffee was about $170. Very reasonable for dinner. read more

One of our Paris staples. Most recent visit, we got a caesar salad and white bean soup to start, followed by the pigeon cocotte and beef cheek stew, and then the chocolate tart for dessert. The soup was good and the caesar was great, but the mains are really what we'll remember -- both were absolutely outstanding, among our favorite dishes from this trip. I can't remember getting pigeon anywhere before, and it surprised me how similar it was to duck (more so than chicken). And the beef cheek stew is essentially a beef bourguignon, as it's cooked in red wine with carrots. I'd have trouble not getting both again next time if they're still on the menu. Overall, just really excellent food. We've come here on every visit to Paris and have no plans to stop. read more

Tried the fixed menu for a late lunch. It comes with parsnip soup with almonds and chorizo, chicken with fries, a sliver of goat cheese from the basque region, and a cream cheesecake tart with passion fruit. All for €38. Not bad for Paris. Will certainly return to this place. Service at the counter was great. Will need reservations if 3 or more people. read more

The first visit was a 3 star because the very tall waiter wearing black did not inform us of a $3 fee for water (it a tall thin bottle) for a total of $6. The service was also awful aka nonexistent. However, our second visit to the restaurant we had a different waiter (slightly balding) and the water (served in a smaller container) was free. The service was excellent. He refilled our water and our bread without us asking. We ordered 3 pigeons and it was fall off the bone delicious. Definitely a must try dish if you come here. The steak was not good and I would not recommend. The beef cheek stew was also super tender but a bit too salty. read more

A gem close to the Eiffel Tower. The food is quality, fresh and very well prepared. I had the squid ink risotto with sautéed calamari and chorizo. My wife had the beef stew with veggies. Both delicious. The lobster bisque was tasty but watery and there was no signs of lobster. The service was excellent. The waiters are all very friendly and attentive.

The most rude staff we've encountered in our week in Paris. Be aware they will make you feel less than human. Dirt. They continued to me berate me for asking a simple question. For Lunch: We sat down hungry, ordered drinks and a starter, intending to order main courses after. They told me it was not allowed: starters, only mains. I was confused as I saw others in the restaurant eating the starters listed on the menu. The gentleman came back and I asked to clarify and he states "we are not a wine bar, you can't order starters!" Hmm ok then why do I see others eating? He said oh you can order starters and main but not just starters. I felt I was being scolded and judged by my appearance which was in casual Lululemon outfit. He saw my face getting red and upset but continued to double down and be rude. We decided not to stay. We had dinner reservations for the evening and so glad we didn't come all the way to be treated like that. I'm glad we didn't spend $100+ for pigeon and unkindness. It was also cold and sterile inside, not a fun ambiance. My advice: Walk down the street and have a better experience! read more
