We chose this restaurant after a long day of exhaustive walking & sightseeing and we are so pleased that we did. The service was prompt and the 2 servers were very welcoming. The meal was delicious as one of us had escargot and onion soup, while the other had the beef steak dish, one of the specials of the day. One of my escargot was unretrievable so they willfully credited that portion of the dish. We definitely recommend this restaurant for the small welcoming atmosphere, the service given, reasonably priced, and the flavors.

Upon arriving, I waited at the front for a few minutes before anybody even acknowledged me, once we sat down we waited another 10 minutes to even get a menu. They don't have enough menus, so we had to wait for the table next to us to finish with the menu before the waiter handed us their menus. Once we chose what we wanted, we waited another 5-10 minutes before we had to flag a waiter to take our order. We also didn't get any water/drinks for about half an hour after sitting down. The restaurant smells like sweat...and they do NOT give free water at all. The room is TOO loud, there's loud music, loud bar sounds and just overall loud general noises. Also the hostess wearing black yelled at multiple waiters a few times in front of guests so that was weird... Anyways, on to the food..... Portions are TOO small, ridiculously overpriced. The food didn't come out at the same time, one of six of us nearly finished her food before the rest of us got anything. The table besides us, had 5, and only 2 received their food and finished it completely before the other 3 received their food. We ordered 2 of the same plate, and only one came. Unfortunately for me I was the odd one out waiting another 14 minutes for my plate. The only positive, the food was actually good. It wasn't amazing, but it was good, except one of my kafta's was raw. They also offered us tea in the end to compensate for the awful service, just for them to never give it. Overall, congrats to this restaurant! This takes the cake as the WORST restaurant I've ever been to. Dreadful service and ambiance. Please come here if you want to lose your mind.

Sure, the place is tiny and doesn't have any space to eat, but wow! The meat is the best I've tasted in a while. The owner is friendly and the portions are generous. Local street workers come to eat and there is often a line at noon (also worth noting it does not open at night). To save a few bucks, I usually order without a drink and go to the supermarket right next to get a can or bottle. Overall this place is great. If you are in the street, go check it out! You won't be dissapointed.

I figured it was time to write a review for my namesake restaurant, the one in the little blurb…read moreunder my name. It'll be a problematic review, since I haven't been here since around November of 2004. But let's try it and see how it goes. At the time, "Mac Doner" was an unusually dominating presence, compared to most of the other Turkish-style takeaway places in the city. For one thing, the 16th is a rich, heavily white area of Paris, with very little in the way of fast food. This was the only spot for a kebab or an adana kebab sandwich in that part of the neighborhood, and probably one of the few in the neighborhood altogether. It also had a striking blue neon sign, contrasting against the otherwise staid quality of this semi-residential street. (Eventually they added a new, more traditional exterior, as I saw when I walked by in 2007--unfortunately I didn't stop in and try it again.) And then there's the name itself, mildly punning, nearly copyright-infringing. It rolls off the tongue nicely. As for the food, I would have to admit that I'm adding an extra star for nostalgia. It was, it's true, one of the earliest kebabs I'd ever eaten, a food which is now a mild obsession. The white sauce was good, tart, fresh, with large bits of mint in it; that bread, the peculiarly French type of round pita, was soft and a little toasted; the fries were decent, just a bit soggy, as they always seem to be when you open the long clamshell package. But the meat never seemed stellar. There were too many fatty bits, too much turkey and not quite enough veal. This definitely wasn't a "kebab extra veau." Still, a kebab in the 16th, in that forest of dull luxury, is going to have the benefit of uniqueness, of a lack of competition. The surprise of its being there at all adds something to the flavor. I'd go back, I'd even go out of my way to have it again. I do hope that when they renovated they added some seating, since I remember there being absolutely nothing seven years ago. But either way, there is no arguing with Mac Doner. Either figuratively or literally, since--I'm told--the employees are still on the haughty side.

The lamb/beef was tender and tasted amazing. The menu has different combo choices with the meat (sandwich, wrap, or "tabox") which I think is fantastic. You can also get the set menu which comes with soup, dessert or salad and a drink for a couple of more Euros! Definitely will come back!

As a background, I'm somewhat of a sandwich aficionado; specifically in the category of kebabs,…read moreI've eaten them in more than fifty countries and more than 100 shops in Paris. So when I read that there was a Chic Kebab Place I had to try! There are two locations to choose from and the one on 41 rue de Londres is the closest. Upon entering you'll notice that it's different than a normal kebab shop in that it's nicely decorated, lighting is not set to a hospital level and it's very modern. Also, the people working behind the counter were very nice and helpful in making a selection. For me I decided to go with the chicken sandwich called the Glamour Kebab, Sweet Potato Fries and a Beverage. I chose this because I was looking for the basic kebab, with a basic anything I believe you can see where the quality shines. Interestingly, when I was ordering the employee behind the counter warned me that the chicken was pieces of chicken breast that would be reheated. I didn't have much concern because several Lebanese shops do the same thing. After about 10 minutes of waiting (note there was no other orders being worked on so possible it could take a long time during lunch or dinner time). I received my sandwich. Immediately I tried the Sweet Potato Fries and while they tasted ok, the immediate problem was they seemed to be purely fried in oil, salted and bagged - this is not how you do sweet potato fries and as a result there was almost a vinegar aftertaste. Onto the main course, the sandwich. From what I could make out, the tortilla I chose seemed to be homemade - but I'm not 100% sure. First bite though had me concerned. I had a piece of chicken and a mouthful of lettuce. Second, third and fourth bites I had a similar experience - a TON of lettuce, with a piece or two of chicken and that lettuce - that damn lettuce! I made it about 60% through the sandwich and put it down. It's not that I couldn't have finished what I started but I honestly didn't have the desire. The chicken was bland, very bland. I read the website and they say they marinate the chicken and keep it under sous-vide and that there are flavors, I couldn't taste them (and I don't smoke). The lettuce was just pure filling and there was way too much of it. I would have preferred to have a choice of vegetables such as different lettuce types or tomatoes, onions, carrots, etc.... This is "Le Chic Kebab" after all! Overall I'm giving this a 2-star rating and while I know they had a spit with meat on it that was lamb that could have tasted differently, you have to get them all done correctly. ******************************************** Finally, I had a bit of an epiphany while putting down my kebab and I thought what better place to share it than here. Note this is a general view on cuisine in Paris and is not related to the review (directly). This restaurant as well as Miss Bahn Mi, Beast, Blend and a few other places are French people who have taken food done by other nationalities and Frenchified them. Meaning they've done them with a twist that they envision will appeal to the Paris public. In my opinion, which is just that, my opinion, they're failing. In this case here, we have a kebab shop who's attempting to use only healthy ingredients which makes sense as I'm sure several people who frequent kebab shops know, quality varies greatly. The problem though is that in search of a kebab with fresh ingredients alone, they've sacrificed the soul of the product they're offering. İskender Efendi created the kebab in northern Turkey in the 19th century. His interpretation varies from the majority of Turkish kebabs in Paris today and that's okay because when you got to any of the Turkish places, you typically get a sandwich that has heaps of flavor and provides the consumer choice on what they're getting (ingredients, sauces, etc..); such that this choice has become de rigeur. Today, restaurants such these begin on the right path with noble ideas such a freshness and quality ingredients, bravo! But where they fall short, amazingly short, is that they forget that the market demands improvement on what they have today, not an owner's interpretation of what they feel we should have. Again, this was just an opinion that I wanted to put out there and I hope the review above provides you some insight to the restaurant so you can make an informed decision.
