DELICIOUS food + margaritas, reasonably priced for Paris, & fantastic service. PLEASE NOTE:…read morestandards for service at restaurants in France vs. America are VERY DIFFERENT... we were visiting from the US and quickly learned that in France you can expect slower service & waiters who are very direct and will get you what you need, but won't be checking in with you every 10 minutes and won't bring you your check/water/bread/etc unless you ask for it. It's not a bad thing, just different ‍ so if you walk in with the expectation of US-style food service, don't be surprised if you're disappointed. That being said, this was by far the best service we had while in Paris! Our waiters were friendly, efficient, and very kind and helpful with recommendations/making sure we had what we needed/etc. And the food was incredible, super flavorful and deliciously interesting combinations of ingredients. 10/10 would visit again.

Friends had moved from Rome to Paris and in our WhatsApp chat they dropped ideas for things I might…read moreconsider during my Paris stay. Amongst them, they threw in the idea of Sunday afternoon roast chicken at Brutos for which they said reservations were needed and quickly grabbed. If you're feeling overwhelmed by hoofing around Paris all day, the notion of a late afternoon lunch of a whole roast chicken holds sway and when you waltz into the warm embrace of Brutos you'll know you've chosen perfectly. That embrace comes not only in the food, but in both the atmosphere and service level. This is a restaurant that would also find success in San Francisco (high praise). After leading with wine, beer, a delicately beautiful asparagus starter (€14), and beef tartare (€16), two of us shared one whole roast chicken (€58) which was stuffed with both a lemon and an onion. Both would be a good accompaniment to the chicken but I only came upon them as we neared the end. Fries accompany the chicken and mustard is a good accompaniment to request (Brutos stocks no catsup) if the provided dip is too rich for your palate. I opted for a 2:30pm reservation, scooping up the last time slot available and staying until what appeared to be closing time, though I felt no rush or prodding. From start to finish, Brutos was a lovely experience and, as my reliable friends noted, a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon in Paris.

The food was a bit hit-or-miss, though. The fish was delicious. Fries were well-cooked and the dipping sauce was great. But while I'm not afraid to try a steak medium-rare, what they brought out was basically still mooing. It was also a bit on the bland side -- there was some seasoning on it but it was a bit plain. Overall, though, it was a good experience. Not necessarily as great as people hyped it up to be, but I'd go back.
