It was still warm and wanted to sit outside but it didn't look like there was enough room but when I asked, he said "no problem!" On the table, we ordered onion soup, a pate, foie gras, escargot, and a "tomato carpaccio" with anchovies on top. All excellent! For dinner, we had fish and two different type of duck plates. Everything was cooked to perfection. We ordered a bottle of Côtes du Rhône which went very well with the duck. Great service and superb food at a reasonable price. At the end, our guy offered us a aperitif on the house. It was a cognac. Great way to complete our meal. I'm thing we should have gotten dessert but we weee pretty full.

This was one of my favorite restaurants that we ate at in Paris. We had just come down the stairs…read morefrom Sacre Coeur and were looking for a place to eat for lunch. I was literally walking around checking out menus posted outside and checking Yelp for positive and negative reviews. We stumbled across La Paname. Yelp told me it was closed, but I am happy to report that it was not. We saw 1 couple dining inside and another walk in as I was looking up reviews and checking out the menu. One of the reasons we decided to stop here was because it had 4 stars on Yelp. Another was because it was at the right place at the right time, but the third reason was for the express menu posted on a sign board outside the restaurant. There were a selection of items available with a dessert for 12.90 Euro. One of the items was a beef bourguinon, a favorite of mine which I had yet to enjoy in my trip to France. So, armed with this information my mother and I decided to try the place out. I'm sad to say there is not outside dining here, but the inside is lovely, warm, and cozy. It is quite small, but that adds to the charm. Our waiter was helpful, attentive, and spoke beautiful English which was very helpful since our French leaves something to be desired. We both decided on the beef bourguinon though they had some other attractive options including burgers, chicken, and a citrus fish. It was a cold day and warm beef with potatoes and gravy just hit the spot. This was probably the best beef bourguinon I ever had in my life. The gravy was so good I was literally lopping it up with the bread. We both ordered a kir here too and it was excellent with just the right level of sweet. One of the best kirs I had the whole trip and I had many. For dessert my mom had the pear tart and she loved it. I had a chocolate crepe which was light, fluffy, and warm. We were seated next to a couple from Chicago who gave us some great tips and with whom we enjoyed some lovely conversation. By the time we left the restaurant is had gotten quite busy. This restaurant is proof that you can never go wrong with good food and good service, and that neither of those things has to break the bank. I would totally come back here the next time I was in the area.

We stopped by Akrame for lunch during our trip in Paris, and while it was clearly Michelin quality…read morepreparation, the food failed to blow us away. The one thing that made me a bit upset at the restaurant was that they served us chicken for our entree, and while it was well-cooked, it wasn't memorable in any way. For a Michelin starred restaurant, we didn't expect that we would be served chicken, which tends to be a cheaper ingredient compared to other proteins. The fish course was also a bit lackluster - well-cooked but no flavors that jumped out at us. Perhaps this place is better for dinner, but we likely won't be coming back any time soon. Given the wide selection of amazing restaurants in Paris, there are plenty of other places to enjoy a delicious meal for far less.

KenScale: 9.0/10…read more Akrame is an eponymous restaurant from young chef Akrame Benallal who previously worked with culinary legends like Ferran Adrià and Pierre Gagnaire. He opened this restaurant near Champs-Elysees in 2011, and it has quickly been one of the hottest tables since, culminating in two Michelin stars, a rare feat for a restaurant in such a short time. I came over for lunch and was deeply impressed with the food coming out of the kitchen at this restaurant with a rather small yet minimalist and cozy dining room. There are several tasting menu options but I went with the 90-euro one with four courses, although there were additional small dishes here and there. If there is a description that could fit this restaurant's culinary philosophy, it would be playfulness with technical sophistication. Each dish had unexpected surprises but that didn't compromise the execution. I already sensed this restaurant was not playing around when I tasted absolutely juicy clams submerged in white wine foam that was absolutely delicious. Pollock that came with artichoke, onion and peanut sauce was also excellent. Sometimes unexpected surprises came for more decorative purposes than adding another dimension to the dish. I wouldn't have thought popcorn belongs to a dish of pigeon and corn, but there was nothing to complain about the texture of perfectly cooked pigeon meat. The desserts also showed flashes of brilliance. I was surprised to see avocado in a dessert plate, but it worked very well with white chocolate and banana pieces. I haven't seen ice cream made of pepper flavor and it somehow created unique flavor with mango and herb cream. My favorite of the three dessert plates, however, was the milk ice cream that was just absolutely refreshing. The restaurant has some nice wine list, so definitely try a glass or two. Akrame is another casual-looking restaurant with very put together staffs with attentive and professional services. The restaurant is another place worth visiting during your time in Paris. If you want to see technical brilliance behind some unexpected combination of ingredients, Akrame will definitely make you happy.

Amazing high class French food here for a medium price!…read more We went here 2 times on 2 different days during our visit in Paris (lunch and dinner). Both times we had a superb experience in terms of food, service and ambiance. First time was lunch. The place was full and the waiter had to move over a table for the lady to fit in (typical French). I had a lamb dish with very yellow mashed potatoes, it was delicious! There were a lot of local French (business) people eating and understandably. Second time was dinner around 8 pm. The place was almost full and we got a nice table. Many of the staff speaks English and were very friendly. The waitress was very spontaneous and also went to Amsterdam (we are from Holland). We had the weekend menu for 26 with 2 wines, free water, free bread, appetiser, main dish (plat), dessert. The food was of very high quality. Absolutely recommend!!

I had to get up and approach the waiter to let him know about the mistake because he never came to check on us. I wish that I could at least say that I enjoyed the food, but as I mentioned, it was cold and seemed to just be reheated. My sister ordered the burger and they didn't ask her how she wanted it cooked, which means it was probably just frozen. For similar prices you could get better quality food.
