Love this spot! Its facing the canal with inside and outside seating. Food comes quick and the service is fun and efficient. We got a bit of everything the bao burgers, sides of meatballs, and a delicious noodle salad. All to share and everyone finished it well. Pairs well with their wine selection of course Definitely will try more options next time, the owner himself greeted everyone while they were super busy. They had this awesome mezcal drink during feta de la musique festival! the perfect summer sipper Will be visiting again! read more

Try the bao burgers and the sweet potato fries they're delicious! Lovely and cozy environment, plus the waiter was super enthusiastic and friendly. read more

After a couple of days of French food we wanted to try something different. Siseng fit the bill given the Pan Asian description. We didn't realize it until we arrived but they are located in the Canal- St. Martin area which is full of restaurants & people picnicking/having their beer/wine and hanging out along the path area next to the canal. We arrived Saturday around 8 pm and they only had high stool seats that faced the wall (no fun) so we ordered a couple of beers for the wait. (About 20 minutes). We ordered the Grimbergen Blonde- large. A Belgian Beer yes but thought 10 Euros was a bit steep. Also ordered a fruity non alcoholic drink (house creation & can't remember name) which was very refreshing. The restaurant is quite cozy and it is community seating. We ordered a couple of appetizers. Croquettes de Crevettes & Spring Rolls. Both very tasty. For main, it was Bao Burgers. beef and fried chicken. Beef (5 spice) was seasoned just right and Chicken was crispy, juicy and not greasy. Also, Bo Bun, with the thin vermicelli Noodles was light and the perfect dish for a hot day. Overall, great vibe and spot with friendly and attentive service! read more

Bao + Burgers = MIND BLOWN We ordered the "chicken burger" and "five spices" burger and were very impressed. The restaurant had a cool small vibe with shared tables and a view of the Canal Saint Martin. Definitely want to make sure I come back the next time I'm in Paris. read more

One word: wow! We were frisky impressed by Siseng and our burgers. We got one of the chicken and one of the beef burger and they were both an explosion for flavour in the right quantities. We also got the yam fries and the pork spring rolls which were also good. We didn't call to reserve and showed up at 9:30pm on a Friday night. We were seated within 20 minutes. The space is a little tight but worth it! read more

I thought the this place was okay. I had the five spice bao burger with sweet potato fries and the risotto croquette. The croquette was tasty but I wish it was accompanied by some kind of dipping sauce. I found the flavors in the bao burger didn't compliment each other. Something was off about it. I really like the concept though, it reminded me of, The Bun Shop in LA. Moving on, the sweet potato fries weren't the best I've had. I'm a big fan of sweet potato fries, and I was just happy these weren't oily. They had a slight crisp but not enough. The dipping sauce for it was okay. There is potential here. I would suggest they add more dipping sauce options, reinvent their five spice burger and add more meat options like pork belly. You can't go wrong with pork belly! This shop is small so come early unless you don't mind waiting. The place was packed 30 mins after the doors opened. And for my fellow Americans, the servers did speak some English. read more

Mega awesome address! This is barstool, Asian-American fusion food like you'd find on one of the American coasts yet there's still something delicately Parisian about the place. The menu is delightfully tight and every items sounds delicious, from the bento and bobun to the inventive burgers served on steamed rice-flour buns. After oohing and ahhing and asking the waiter what was best, he replied without any attitude that everything was delicious but the bento was one of his personal faves. So I went for it. And it was fabulous. The chicken was marinated in some teriyaki spice sauces and slow cooked so that the meat was super tender but moist, the steamed broccoli and mushroom medley was great and the rice perfection. At the cash register to pay I ran into an old acquaintance from NYC, a very famous pastry chef who was dining with her husband and they were freaking out about their burgers and even said it was the BEST BURGER they had ever had. Coming from a New Yorker, that was a statement. I must go back to try them now. read more

Baozi steamed buns seem to be all the rage in Paris at the moment so had to go check out an 'in the know' place. The Asian fusion food bar Siseng by Canal Saint Martin (probably my favourite part of all of Paris) to be precise, for their unique take of Bao Burgers. Bao Burgers. A new concept on me, but all the talk in the Parisian food scene. Chinese spices, Japanese style technique, and Thai condiments. What's not to like?! Were you a Ginger spice? Maybe you were all about Baby Spice. Or perhaps you liked a bit of Posh. Well why settle for one spice. Have all 5 of you can. Spice up your life! 5 Spice Bao Burger: beef patty marinated with 5 Spices, tamarind & caramel sauce, tempura onion rings, onion confit, spinach and arugula leaves. Also had a Kai Bao Burger too: panko crusted chicken fillet with a coconut milk sauce, red pepper marinade, homemade slaw and fresh basil. Chinese spices, Japanese style technique, and Thai condiments. What's not to like?! Tora! Tora! Tora! and Siseng a particular fav from the cocktails. Shrimp croquettes, vegetable tempura and sweet potato fries. With some excellent sauces too. Liking Siseng a lot as it's different from what you get in Paris. Dare I say it but there's a hipster scene in Paris? read more

It was a really interesting and innovative way to eat a burger. The combination of the bao and the beef marinated in some asian flavors was perfect! The chicken burger wasn't as good but still worth it. And the sweet potatoes fries were good. The menu is at 15€ for burger + soft drink + sweet potato fries. It was lunchtime on a weekday but the place was very crowded so come early and don't seat at the table close to the door if you can because of the people coming in and out all the time. read more

Surprised by this cute little spot. Wanting a break from all the French food we had been trying we rushed up here for lunch. The food was delicious, the spot was quaint and the service quick. I really liked the risotto croquettes , it was full of flavor and crispy. We almost ordered a second helping if it wasn't for us all already ordering a side of fries each. The fries needed some more seasoning to them but they were pleasant, sweet potato fries. the burger had an asian seasoning to it, with some oyster sauce maybe which was nice because we weren't expecting that. We quickly finished our burgers and it took a while for us to get any service help with grabbing our tab. the small restaurant filled up quickly with people being turned away due to not having enough room. read more

I came to Siseng on a Wednesday night with two friends at around 8pm. We ended up waiting outside in the cold for almost 45 minutes before enough seats freed up for us. I got the tofu burger and a side of sweet potato fries. The burger was delicious. It is served on the softest bao bun, and the tofu and seaweed was salty and great. It could have used something with a bit of crunch, but otherwise was really good. The fries were fine. I'm not the hugest sweet potato fry fan...I just think regular fries are so good that you never need sweet potatoes. So maybe I'm not the best judge of these, but I think they could be better. They weren't served very hot, and they were just a bit thick and not crispy enough. The sauce they came with though was really amazing (m If they cut the fries a bit smaller, fried a bit longer, and added something a bit crunchy to the veggie burger, then this place would be a solid 5. The service was very friendly (we always had a new carafe of water without asking), the place is cute, and it's in a great part of town. read more

Siseng is a fusion Asian restaurant with a small but well thought out menu they have bao burgers, noodle dishes, croquettes, and spring rolls. I ordered the 5 spiced beef bao and black bean noodles which was so flavorful and delicious. I honestly have never tried anything like this expect maybe pork bao sticky buns. The bao bun is so soft and a light, the mixture of spices/sauces that they use to make the burger is pure perfection. This restaurant is a must try to say the least. The noodle dish was also amazing I honestly loved everything on the menu. The location is a little small so it definitely provides an intimate setting but the decor is super hipster and chic. Try to come early to avoid waiting in line but I promise you will be beyond satisfied with your experience here. read more

I loved the Asian fusion burger in Paris. It was really interesting and I highly recommend it. I enjoyed the Risotto croquettes and sweet potato fries (can't go wrong with that). It is a departure from all the food that you get accustomed to in France. You must get steak frites, mussels, escargot and pastries when in Paris but if you are craving something different, def worth the visit! read more

This place is so good, I had to eat here twice on a recent trip to Paris. I had never really understood Asian fusion cuisine but this place definitely hit the nail on the head. I enjoyed the lunch special for €15. It came with burger, sweet potato fries and a homemade drink. The bao bun and 5 Spice Sauce took me back to childhood memories of eating steam bao buns for snacks after school. The veggies on the burger gave it a nice crunch. I savoured every single bite of that burger. The sweet potatoe fries were soft on the inside crispy on the outside. It came with a sesame seed peanutty sauce that was sweet and tangy. I did not miss the ketchup with my fries or the pickles on my burger. And I love my pickles and ketchup. This place was so good, it was my good bye Paris meal. We were driving from Marseille back to Paris and made sure that we had enough time to pick up a few burgers before they closed. On this meal we had two 5spice burgers and 1 chicken burger. The chicken burger had a nice breading on it that made it crispy but not greasy. The coleslaw added a nice crunch on it and also served as a creamy dressing for the burger. My tummy was smiling after this meal. read more

Really cute little Vietnamese spot along the St Martin canal. The Bao Burgers make you wonder why no one has done such a brilliant thing before. We also ordered a bowl of the Bo Bun and it was absolutely fantastic. Even better than the Bao Burger if you ask me. read more

i was so excited to come here for asian fusion burgers and the bao buns. But I have to say it was a little disappointing. We legit waited over 30 minutes for our food, which doesn't make sense when your waiting for fries and a burger. The sweet potato fries were great! But the bun wasn't sweet, soft, and fluffy like I hoped. It was pretty thin and you couldn't really taste it. I got the 5 spice beef burger and the way it was marinated was good, but nothing to be crazy about. it was an interesting asian flavour for a burger though. The onion ring inside also didn't add much. However, I would come back to try the other things. The tempera looked really good and they also had curry and noodles that intrigued me. read more

Siseng - Beef burger - Burgers Near Me - Paris, 75

I found this place extremely average. My boyfriend and I arrived here around 1 pm on a Saturday and the place was full but luckily we came when guests were leaving. We were seated five minutes later even though there was a queue. All the employees were friendly which is rare in France, especially Paris. I swear it's because they are male and hipster! We ended up getting a seat at the end of the table. I think the majority of seats here are bar style with high chairs. The servers kept on bumping into me. It was annoying even if they apologized every time. We started off with the chicken spring rolls for 7€. I thought they were tiny for the price but the sauce for dipping was great. For the entree, we got the beef BAO burger with sweet potato fries and the bo bun. The BAO burger could have been so much better. The BAO itself didn't have the chewiness baos are known for. The meat also tasted weird which could have been the marinade. There were barely any veggies and onion tempura. The burger also became extremely soggy. I would never order this again. The sweet potato fries were amazing with a peanut sauce for dipping. My bo bun was average and again, the meat was kind of strange. The hot sauce wasn't the typical Sriracha but a chili oil paste which added absolutely no heat whatsoever. Our whole meal came out to be 33€ which is a steal in Paris but I wouldn't come back here. There are much better Asian food places to give a try. They get three stars for the service. read more

Another hype Asian fusion place? Yes, but with weird pros: the homemade alcohol-free drinks (aloe Vera lemonade with lemon and pepper is my new addiction), the style of the diners, and the shaker skills of the barman. The place itself is cool, long wooden tables, exactly what you would expect from such a hipster place. Oh yeah, I didn't mention the food. The €12 Bo bun is good, but classic, not worth queuing up for 20 minutes. And the €10 burgers that the restaurant is known for are quite weird and definitely overcooked - I am team "rare is the only way" though... read more

Our accommodation host recommended this restaurant to us, and we decided to give it a try. What a wonderful surprise! I got the veggie burger with tofu and veggies, and it was so delicious. It reminded me of the veggie steamed buns I used to get from my favourite Asian markets back in California. The bun is very soft, and the sauce and tofu patty they serve mix well together. Hubs got the fried chicken burger and thought it was really nice. The sweet potato fries are also great - good chunks that are lightly battered and come with a lovely sweet sauce. It's quite pricey, but it's a unique, comforting meal to have. Would definitely love to visit again if I return to Paris! read more

OMG I don't know where to start!!! This address is AMAZING! the Bao burger : I did not try such a nice burger since ages! Full of spice perfectly cooked and the bread soft and light! The sweet potato fries: crispy outisde and tender inside. The prawns ball: the spices give a fresh and fantastic taste to these balls! And I will finish with the drinks I tried 2 of them the one with aloe Vera and the green tea one... Nothing to say, it was YUMMY! So just go and try you won't be disappointed (even if you have to queue for some time but as soon as you will bite into the burger you will forget about the long queue read more

Had the beef & chicken burgers with sweet potato fries and tempura. Man did all of that hit the spot. So freakin good...even down to the special sesame sauce for the fries & temp. The beef burger with arugula was sweetly marinated and had an amazing flavor & and the tempura chicken with an asian style coleslaw. The waiters and design of the place were cool. We went around 2:30pm on a weekday and there was about a 5-10 min wait...so do your best to avoid the lunch rush otherwise you'll be waiting much longer than that. Forgot to mention the steamed rice-flour buns were a terrific touch. Will def be back!!! read more

Had the pleasure of meeting Siseng and eating at his amazing restaurant on the Canal. We had been in Europe for 2 weeks and were really yearning for some fresh cuisine, specifically Asian. Siseng satisfied us and more. Truly, everything we tried on the menu was amazing, and we tried a lot. Definitely order their signature cocktail as well as it helps you to keep eating even after you shouldn't : ) The energy in the restaurant is young and exciting and the interior decor is on point. Custom made chairs and art and great music playing the whole time. Enjoy a walk on the canal while you wait or after if you're lucky enough to be sat right away! read more

Holy fking sht !!!!!! Best meal ive ever eaten ! I was snorting crumbs off of the table at the end of the meal.

I was getting tired of all the French food on my recent trip to Paris (don't get me wrong, I absolutely love French food). I purposely walked around the Canal Saint Martin neighborhood in search of any ethnic type restaurant when I found Siseng. It was small, but had a very inviting and hip aura about it so I sat at the bar and perused the menu. I was pleased to see that they had Vietnamese inspired dishes such as the Bo Bun which I ordered. From the very first bite I was in heaven. The dish was full of the familiar Vietnamese flavors that I am used to from back home (Cleveland, OH). It was also really cool to see the bartender or shall I say artist create the fascinating cocktails right before my eyes. There really is a lot of work that goes into making these concoctions. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to order one, but I lived vicariously through others that did. The place was getting pretty busy by the time I left at 8 PM on a Thursday night, so I think it's pretty popular with the locals. I truly enjoyed my dining experience at Siseng and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a break from all of the amazing French food in the area read more

Great place! My wife and I both had the 5 spices burger and it was super delicious. We also ordered the sweet potato fries and the risotto croquettes - which were excellent. The menu was in french only, but the waitress was two things that are pretty scarce in Paris - willing and English-speaking. We would def recommend this place. It's pretty small and packed though, but very efficient. read more

I went with a friend last week and we are both big fans! Everything about this place is well conceived, from the beautiful interior design to the uniqueness of the menu to the creative housemade drinks. The service was also friendly and we only had to wait 10 minutes for a table. It was a Sunday afternoon and packed. I had heard and read a lot about the Five Spice burger so I had high expectations. It was very flavorful with good quality beef. However, I ended up preferring the chicken burger. It's similar to tonkatsu and they use the same breading to create a delicate crunch. The texture was perfect and nicely offset the softness of the bao bun. Everything was really tasty and I would go back. read more

Would definitely recommend this place for lunch or a casual dinner before heading out for drinks in the republic. read more
