We dined here last night upon a recommendation from my wife's boss. This was a great little spot…read more Small dining area downstairs with a little spiral staircase leading up to 2 more small dining rooms. The staff was all very friendly and inviting and were happy to recommend their favorite dishes to us. My wife ordered a French onion soup and one of their famously large salads, which are served in these big bowls. I decided to try the chef's special, which was a beef tenderloin a la rossini (truffle sauce and foie gras). I'm not typically a foie gras fan, but I figured since we're in Paris that I'd give it a shot. I'm very glad I did because it was absolutely delicious. The steak melded perfectly with the truffle sauce and fois gras. This was all served with potatoes au gratin, and blanched green beans. Everything was perfect. I also ordered two large beers. A Grimbergin blonde and a Kronenbourg ale. I love how both beers were served in their respective brand's glasses. Such a nice touch. For dessert, we ordered an Apple Tarte Tartin, upon a recommendation from one of the staff. It was light, sweet, and served with some ice cream and créme fraîce. This was such a great dinner all around. Great food, great vibes, which all lead to a great evening. Would definitely recommend!

Big disappointment this one. I bookmarked it based on all the positive reviews. Apparently I was…read moresupposed to order the big cheap salad with potatoes. It wasn't on the menu. For New Year's Eve they offered a special menu, 79 € per person. The host outside who convinced us to splurge for the special occasion said our kiddo wouldn't pay full price. Spoiler: that's not how it went. We were seated in back by the restrooms, with the sound of the hand-dryer serenading our meal. From what I could tell, apart from the staff, there wasn't a single French-speaking person in the whole place, a bad sign. For appetizers we had the escargots, which could have benefited from more garlic and butter, the foie gras, which was fine, and the smoked salmon, which was a generous portion, and very smokey. For my main, I ordered the duck in honey sauce, which would have been a good plate, served with salad, but for some reason they plated it with cold vegetables: green beans, bell pepper, and eggplant under congealing butter--Tasted like it was made ahead of time and they forgot to reheat it out of the fridge before scooping onto my plate. Total fail. My kiddo got the knuckle of lamb, which was fatty and gristly, although the mashed potatoes underneath were delicious, and my wife chose the fettuccine with shrimp and scallops, which were both overcooked and the scallops were crunchy, which was weird, served over way too much plain noodles. The desserts were good, but we paid over 240 € for three, with only one drink each, making it both the most expensive and also least delicious meal of our trip so far. Staff were friendly and attentive, and all addressed us in English, even though I'm fluent in French, which makes sense for a tourist trap. Would not recommend, unless maybe you just get the big cheap salad, seemingly that's what the 5-star reviews are for.

The menu is packed with fresh pasta and wood-fired pizzas, which are such a fun and comforting change of pace while in the city. Everything feels authentic and well done, making it easy to see why it's so popular. It does get pretty crowded inside, no surprise given how trendy it is--but it's absolutely worth the wait for the experience. The truffle pasta is a solid 10/10, rich, flavorful, and easily one of the standout dishes on the menu. The cocktails are another highlight, served in fun, unique glasses that add to the overall vibe and make the meal feel a little more special. Overall, Pink Mamma is more than just a TikTok trend.. it's a lively, delicious dining experience that's worth adding to your Paris itinerary.

This place is a gem!…read more We were in Paris for two weeks and this place was so good, we had it twice. Located in Montmartre, this cozy 'cave' sits upon a busy street. As an American, you must get used to the slow pace that most restaurants run here. But, I've taken a sincere liking to slowing down and enjoying my food rather than eating 'on the go.' Order the beef bourguignon. It is amazing. Comes in a steaming pot with buttery mashed potatoes. Also tried the foie gras, escargots, and frog legs. Haven't had a dish that wasn't up to par. This place deserves more attention. A must visit if you're in the area.

Must say that the outdoor seating area is very unassuming / cause of suspicion (zero people around,…read moreno decorations, broken mirror). But given other raving reviews, we sat and ordered the beef bourguignon and salmon steak. The mash potatoes were very good and the beef was tasty, though a bit dry and had a bit much too tough gristle. The salmon was poached and cooked perfectly. If we came again, I'd like to try more of the menu to get a better / fuller experience. Overall, I'd give it a 3.5 - 4.

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.

Everything looked so amazing, we really had a hard time deciding what to get. Tomato, Onion, Cucumber & Feta Salad (Two Orders) Octopus Salad Vegetarian Stuffed Eggplant Spinach Puff Pastry Stuffed Squid My favorite was the octopus salad, feta cheese salad and vegetarian stuffed eggplant. Everything had really great fresh flavor. The stuffed squid was good, but had more rice filling than I prefer. The spinach puff pastry would be best served right out of the oven, but it had been sitting out for awhile. In addition to prepared foods and salads, they also have grocer items, olives, cheeses and a variety of nuts and bulk items. The prices are based on weight. Overall reasonable since the quality is good. The reason I wasn't pleased with the service is for the following reasons: 1. The employee was very cold immediately upon walking in. 2. Our non-French friend who is currently residing in France, married to a French native and has been learning the language for some time interpreted for us and did all the ordering. The employee was a little critical of how she pronounced things and it really irked me. Also, our friend called the spinach cheese puff pastry (which we are familiar with it being Spanakopita) and she corrected us in a very rude way. 3. The shop was not closed, nor was it going to be closed anytime soon. They have several tables in the back dining room. Nothing fancy, just basic tables and chairs. She wouldn't allow us to sit at the tables to eat our food. She said it was only for "lunch" and at this point it was a little past lunch. Like 2ish. We found this a little odd since no one was occupying the tables. So instead we had to walk around the neighborhood with our bags of food until we could find a bench or table to sit at. Also silly, because we ended up spending so much here. If, I am ever in the area again. I would love to be able to try their spicy octopus salad. I regretted not getting it this time around!

Wide variety of seating, food, and flavors!…read more I made a lunch reservation at 1:30 on a Monday. They still had some tables empty but a reservation is a good idea to be sure. I was seated in the backroom which was all high tables and very quiet. Notre Pâté en croûte - This was great. A slice of bread with chunks of duck and other meat with pickled items on the side (which I always love!) and a little bit of lettuce. It is not like a spreadable paté. Capra (salade) - this was a large salad with three large fried goat cheese balls. I had to take much of it with me. It has a variety of ingredients which don't necessarily go together but you can mix and match with each bite. They have a QR code to their website for the English menu if you need. I was stopped at the door asking if I paid which was strange because the tables in my section all have QR codes on them to pay before leaving. Do Parisians not use these? Next time: I'll sit upstairs and try some other dishes.
