One of the better dining experiences we had during our short visit to Paris. This is a two story establishment with outdoor seating. Unfortunately, it was raining pretty heavily the evening we dined here. We did not have a reservation but were seated pretty quickly. The staff here is friendly and our orders came out quickly. The food was delicious overall. One of our mistakes was ordering the focaccia. We did not read the full description and ordered it thinking it was simply bread like here in the US. Instead, it was a large portion of mini sandwiches! To top it off, we each ordered our own entrees. Needless to say, there was considerable waste since we did not have the means to refrigerate any leftovers. read more

After visiting the Arch of triumph we decided to search for an affordable nice restaurant, we found Vesuvio ! Group of 9 we were sited right away, Stefano, our server very friendly and gave great suggestions about the menu All nine meals were amazing ! Highly recommend! Grazie Mile! read more

Considering it's located in the busiest part of Paris near the Champs de Elysee, I have to say - not bad - quite good Italian fare for those seeking an alternative from the stuffy French restaurants. We had much better service and less condescending back talk from the wait staff. Food was very good but then that's because after walking for over 10 miles that day, almost anything would be good. I loved this place because the waitstaff did not treat you like tourist trash. Instead, they offered a much more pleasant US type of dining experience. Kids wanted the pepperoni pizza 17€ and pasta vongole 18€. Overall a nice place to go when you want to escape the French restaurants! read more

Pizza Vesuvio Georges V - Tartufo pizza - Pizza Near Me - Paris, 75

We were able to get quick seating (11pm) after time snuck away from us while sightseeing around the Eiffel Tower. I ordered the seafood risotto. The risotto was served piping hot and wasn't cooked all the way. After letting the dish set for a few minutes it was perfect. My husband and daughter enjoyed the dish far more than I did. It was what you would expect after gallivanting into a restaurant at the 11th hour. Service was quick and food was satisfying. I nibbled on my husband's fish of the day: salmon. It was seasoned perfectly. My husband seemed bothered that the bones were still in the fish,but i didn't mind. I actually enjoyed his ravioli. It was served with a white cream sauce that wasn't too indulgent. A few tables were occupied with friends and gal pals enjoying dessert or wine. Another table sat a man by himself staring at his unfinished pizza. My toddler, in the interim, was wielding a fork at everyone, screaming for food. Although this didn't strike me as a your 1st, 2nd, or 3rd choice to dine with a toddler, the patrons seemed unbothered and carried on. The quaintly modern atmosphere earns her an extra star because of it. read more

My friend Adam's faced dropped. "Do you know it has 1.5 stars on Yelp?" I nodded and pointed to the movie theater next door..."You know we have an hour until the movie starts and it's a national holiday today, right?" He somewhat grouchily sat down. An hour later, we were walking into the movie, satisfied with our meal, the service, and the atmosphere. Yes it's on the Champs and hence has to cater to tourists, but sometimes, that's okay. :-) read more

Perfectly acceptable sidewalk cafe and pizza joint on the Champs Elysees! We wiled away about 3 hours here waiting for the Tour de France to end. We had a great view of the Arc de Triomphe. We had several beers, including a Panache (mixed with lemonade) before settling on coronas with lime. I know, cliche Americaines: we didn't care. We enjoyed a plate of hot frites and split a lovely pizza. Our server was super nice once he realized we were staying, and very attentive. I am somewhat surprised by the low scores: perhaps expectations? We had a nice time and a good snack!!! read more

Pizza Vesuvio Georges V - See the Arc de Triomphe? Great little cafe! - Pizza Near Me - Paris, 75

Having walked up and down the Champs-Elysees, we were craving pizza and this seemed as good a place as any. Just a few steps from the Arc de Triomphe, the terrace was a fabulous spot for people-watching. The charcuterie and pizza were both fantastic (we ordered a Margherita but ended up getting something with pepperoni, mushrooms and peppers instead--pas de probleme). We had some beers and enjoyed a leisurely lunch followed by some cafe and cappuccino. Quite nice. read more

Pizza Vesuvio Georges V - Charcuterie near Arc de Triomphe - Pizza Near Me - Paris, 75

After visiting the Arc de Triomphe, we were starving, and we stopped at the first place that had an available table. I had a glass of red wine and spaghetti. The food was so-so, but the bread was really good. Isn't it always delicious in France? The seating is really tight. You're pretty much sitting with everyone, but the view of the Arc makes up for it. read more

In Paris for 12 days. Took a break from French food and found this Italian restaurant. Third time eating here in 12 days. Very good. Love the tagliatelle with ragu. read more

While visiting France my wife Judy and I ate at some of the finest restaurants. But one of our favorites was Vesuvio's. After several days of fancy French food we were ready for something simple and familiar. Vesuvio's met our need. Judy ordered the pepperoni pizza and I had a pepperoni calzone. Both were fantastic. The pizza was better. The restaurant was nicely furnished. A little upscale compared to most American pizza places. The price was reasonable and the service was good. They spoke enough English to take care of us. While we were there on June 19, 2017 there was the failed terror attack near the Arc de Triomphe on Champs-Elysees. A car loaded with explosives ran into a police car but did not detonate. The attack was only a few blocks away. It came up on the TV while we were eating. It just added to the experience. Overall we have a wonderful meal with food we were familiar with at a reasonable price. Worth the visit. read more

The food here was good. I had a cocktail of pasta which included 4 of their pastas (cheese ravioli, tortellini, gnocchi and pesto pasta), and it was delicious. However, and I know I shouldn't be surprised in the middle of the touristy Champs-Elysees in Paris, the service was absolutely terrible. The waiter did not say a single word to us the entire time - he only acknowledged our orders by nodding, and acknowledged our requests by literally scowling at us. When my sister asked for a box for her pasta afterwards, he gave her a "are you fucking kidding me?" look, turned around and came back 10 minutes later finally with a box, picked up her plate and dumped her pasta into it as fast as he could. Will never go back again. read more

When the lunch rush hits on the Champs Elysées, it's tough to find a calm place to have a nice meal that doesn't break the bank. Pizza Vesuvio is fairly quiet, and while it isn't the best Italian cuisine in Paris, it's good for a lengthy lunch break with coworkers. My penne arrabbiata was sufficiently spicy (the tomato sauce was basic but homey, with just enough garlic). My colleagues ordered the lunch specials of a main and dessert: delicious polpette with eggplant gratin, and a sizeable sampling of two pasta dishes. For dessert, tiramisu. My only complaint would be the time it took us to get served, and then to get the check at the end of the meal. The restaurant wasn't full, but the waiter's attention seemed to be elsewhere. read more

Just had a wonderful dinner at Vesuvio, 1/2 block off of Champs Elysee. Food was wonderful, service was fantastic!!!!!

We thought we would be clever and avoid the places on Champs Elysee which we thought might be overly touristy (you think?). Not finding anything nearby on Yelp, we took a risk and headed into this Italian place on a side street. Pizza Vesuvius. It looks like they may have a branch on Champs Elysee as well (according to Yelp). Oh well. We were seated by the window. It was not very full. I ordered the Spaghetti Bolognese and my son ordered the Sweet Pepper Sausage Pizza. We also ordered a Salada Mixta. And 25 cl of house red wine. The salad was undressed and that was fine as we had oil and vinegar on the table. It was ok. The corn in it and heavy celery was a bit odd. We doctored it a bit with various condiments. The red wine was the next clue of a problem. It tasted close to vinegar. Upon taking my first sip, I asked the waiter if there are any other options. He took it away immediately and I thought: that was a nice touch, he wants to make this right. I ordered Italian beer instead, which was tasty. Sadly we later saw they left the wine on the bill. Oh well. So much for the galant act it had first seemed. The spaghetti itself was fine. The sauce, flavorless. The pizza crust was soft and tasty. The pizza was otherwise undistinguished. If you just want OK pizza, this place is probably ok. Otherwise look elsewhere. read more

Amazing truffle pizza. Service is okay but the pizza is amazing. The truffle pizza sans tomatoes is definitely worth it!

Excellent service. We felt welcome and the waiters answered all our questions. Delicious lasagna. Prices are reasonable.

The food was decent. We had pizza, pasta carbonara, and pasta vongole. The service was ok for the most part. I would have given 4 stars if the drinks were cheaper. 5 euro for a Coke, 5 euro for a tiny bottle of water, (approximately $7 usd each). Are you freaking kidding me? read more

Greasy pizza, horrible (argumentative) staff and service. After being seated, we waited an unacceptable length of time to have our order taken, then waited even longer to have the pizza brought to our table. Yet, there was a group of 6 "locals" that came into the restaurant AFTER we had ordered, yet received their food before us. I strongly believe our poor service was an anti-American tourist grudge. To top it all off, the staff, (we were seated close to the kitchen), were constantly arguing (loud) with one another, making our eating experience difficult. We ended up asking for a to-go box, paid our bill and left. I won't return there...ever. read more

This restaurant had a typical Italian menu but the food was quite good. We had a pizza with proscuitto, grana, and arugula and an assortment of pastas. The ingredients were fresh and the sauces on the pasta were better than I was expecting. Nice find off the Champs-Élysées. read more
