The confit de canard was AMAZING! The rest of the food we ordered were good as well but eating this dish in particular was an unforgettable experience. It's been 7 months since my family and I ate at this restaurant and I still talk about it. I've been recommending this place to family and friends who plan to visit Paris. The price is very affordable. The place is small yet cozy. The staff is friendly. Try it!!! read more

The fruit salad and their namesake beer are nice on a warm day. This is another spot for chilling and people watching. Patrons include barflies, office workers, and students. Almost all staff speak English and are helpful. Situated in the middle of the block amidst a grocer and bakery, and easy to get to. Lacked A/C and is rustic like many other bistros, but with live music on certain days. HH is Monday - Saturday 2:30pm to 9:00pm. read more

Smoke - Bars Near Me - Paris, 75

The serving staff is friendly, attentive and patient. We came in as a group of 4 Americans and up until eating here didn't see much hospitality in Paris. The server took his time to explain the menu in English and was extremely friendly! I ordered a steak and it came with green beans and potatoes. Everything had great flavor and the butter on top of the steak was one of the best steak butters we've ever had. My friends and I were arguing over what kind of butter it was, so if anyone knows... let me know! Prices were reasonable. Sorry I don't remember exactly how much it cost. And they have a good beer selection. There's also happy hour shots for only 5 euros! read more

Very nicely decorated place, located in a great neighborhood and easily found. Great food, tapas and drinks. And friendly staff. I will definitely return. read more

We found Le Smoke during our recent visit to Paris, France. We were in search of a reasonably priced restaurant that would also present as a tasty/not overpriced meal, which had proven itself difficult in this city. Upon arrival the staff was very attentive and our waiter took the time to explain every detail of the menu to us in English. He was absolutely fabulous and the service was on point. We both decided to go with two of the plate of the days: Chicken with a mushroom sauce accompanied with pasta and the Duck with Green Beans and Roasted Potatoes. Both dishes were very reasonable for the price but were very simple. The meals were also served with the classic hot mustard on the side. read more

Best place to taste real Parisian food with just the right price, waiters are very friendly and we're kind enough to translate the very French menu into English Nice cozy place not very quiet though, we're very satisfied with everything & we're sure to come here again whenever in Paris #Recommended read more

I really liked this place. I was looking for a chill place to grab a beer and a bite to eat on Friday and this place delivered. Beers were pretty inexpensive. The bartender was extremely helpful in explaining the menu. I went with the quiche. It came out and was perfectly moist, with crispy potatoes and a side salad that wasn't slathered in dressing all for 8.50 euro. The bar also had a unique vibe compared to a lot of the other Paris bars that I went to. It was a little small but was worth hitting up for a quick bite if you are in the area. read more

Great local find. Refreshingly reasonable prices. Good beer. Chicken was good but not out of this world, steak was tough at med- rare read more

This is a nice tucked away little gem that is English friendly but popular with French foodies as well. Dark and atmospheric with jazz dec, part restaurant and part bar with a super chill vibe and more affordable prices than most of the restaurants in the area. We had the duck breast with pepper sauce (seared rare & absolutely amazing) and the cheeseburger (very good as well), portions are generous and the bread served with dinner was delicious as well. I would love to come back and try their desserts. read more

One of the few remaining good and cheap places of the Montparnasse area. And the service is great too. One of my favorites in the neighborhood. read more

Loved the decor the crowd the atmospher and music. Our waiter was friendly and kind of sarcastic like we were old chums, which I liked. The food was great I had steak gravy potatoes and green beans, loved the dish simple but well prepared and at the risk of sounding like the fat girl I wanted to drink the gravy lol. Husband had the chicken potatoes and green beans also very good. Had the chocolate mousse and creme brûlée for dessert. That creme brûlée was everything! And the price was so reasonable. Go really you'll thank me read more

Great waiter,add bread many times,the dish size is big,but only have French list,the waiter can explain it，he add bread about3times read more

Finally encountered this place at the last night of my business stay. I 'd came here every night if I've known this place. read more

Came here due to all the great reviews and didn't think It lived up to it. First off the place is called Le Smoke for a reason, it smelled of smoke. You can't escape the smell since people smoked outside too. I didn't see anyone smoking inside but the smell of cigarette filled the room. I ordered a steak which was on the daily special and was only able to finish half of it. It was very tough. Even cutting into it was tiring. Fortunately the sides of potato and green beans were good. The service here is very friendly and there's live jazz music. read more

Great price for drinks during happy hour, small menu but excellent food. Our meat entree plate was to die for and the mojito's were awesome!

My friends and I were looking for a reasonably priced spot to have dinner after visiting the catacombs. Although we were initially a bit annoyed about getting seated in the basement (no other parties had been seated there yet), the food and the friendly server who did his best to translate the menu made up for it! Ended up getting a cheeseburger and it was really good - but the fries were even better. Good laid back, reasonably priced spot! read more

Affordable, great atmosphere, and THAT HOT GOAT CHEESE SALAD. I'm still dreaming about it. I was on a bad date there, but everything about Le Smoke made up for it. read more

Went late when we got into Paris. Good food. Patient waiter. We had the beef with a cheese sauce and melon and prosciutto salad. The potatoes were very crispy and yum! Both very delicious. read more

Excellent! It's a small local bar, and we didn't know what to expect when we walked in. The bartender spoke only a little English, but he translated the menu for us pretty well and had excellent service. I ordered the only chicken dish that was on the menu, but it was fantastic. It came with green beans, potatoes, and bread, which were all very good... And I usually don't even like green beans! Price was 12 euros but it was worth it, especially since it's a large portion. read more

This place has AMAZING service as well as extremely DELICIOUS food!! The staff is so sweet and the prices are very fair. I went with my family on the night of New Year's Eve and they had a dinner special which they kindly let us choose from. We also ordered drinks and cocktails which were very good! If I ever find myself visiting Paris again, I will definitely come back to this spot! I loved everything about this place! Definitely well-deserved 5 star bar & restaurant read more

A great pub with nice beers! Always a treat with quite unique atmosphere in the area.

I enjoyed this establishment several times during my last visit to Paris. The current wait staff ignored me during my visit last night. I arrived early for a drink and dinner. I was informed dinner was not served until 7pm. I replied, "that's fine. I will have a glass or two of wine while I wait." My glass was empty after 40 minutes. The waiter passed by me several times waiting on other customers. He avoided eye contact each time. I finally got his attention and ordered another glass. 30-40 minutes later, and another empty glass, he was setting up other customers for dinner and giving out dinner menus. I was ignored for another 15 minutes. I got up to leave and miraculously he noticed and asked if I needed anything. He is either incredibly stupid or purposeful in his hate for Americans. There are too many other great options in Paris. I will never go back and encourage other Americans to spend their money elsewhere. read more

Le Smoke gets five stars because they have THE BEST Quiche Lorraine in the world!! The bar is very cozy with a speakeasy feel. The service was great and the drinks were cheap. It has jazz legends all over the walls and a nice playlist. Next time I am in Paris, I am coming here for that quiche!! read more

Not half bad for a beer après le boulot on a weekday. A lively crowd of regulars in their 20s and 30s with well-priced beers on tap. Nothing special in terms of cocktail or decor, but a welcoming jawn nonetheless. read more

I came in to Le Smoke with hopes that the good reviews would fall in line with my upcoming dining experience. It was a little crowded (the place is no bigger than a small upstairs/downstairs 2 bedroom townhouse so it didn't take much to fill it up.I had reservations for 8pm so I thought I was good. Wrong! I don't know if the little Asian man that greeted us was the owner/ restaurant manager or host but he was the typical condescending, rude Parisian. After waiting for our food for an hour the food was lukewarm and the ordered medium steak was more on the well done tough, non flavorful side. A little disappointed and hungry...I guess I should've had a V8. (1 star is for location only) read more

We came to LeSmoke on our first night in Paris based on all the positive Yelp comments and we were not disappointed! The Hampe de Boeuf, fish, and quiche were great. Service was fabulous! read more

Goat cheese salad and roasted chicken with green beans was amazing. Can get by with rudimentary French. Le Smoke beer hit the spot as well.

Amazing place, good vibes, old jazz music and posters. The manager is very patient and nice and speaks English. He walked us through the entire menu in English and recommend very good food. We had a great time, 70 bucks for 2 entrees and 5 drinks. Highly recommended. read more

My local go-to bar. Bartender is extremely friendly and helpful. The vibes in here are chill and charming all at the same time. The salads are huge and the bread is fresh. Always have a great time here. read more

Amazing service and food. This restaurant is completely French. The menu is only in French but the waiter will try to explain it. I ordered something randomly and ended up loving it! It was steak with potatoes and green beans. It was absolutely delicious and they give you great portions! Although this restaurant should be two euro signs because most of the items on the menu were 12+ read more

Ordered the entrecôte which was mostly fat. Potatoes were amazing and portions are large, especially for the prices. Best part about this place was the extended happy hour until 8pm. 5€ cocktails and the hibiscus gin and tonic was soooooo good! Small little hole in the wall bar that's good for drinks. Next table over had burgers that looked good. Probably won't eat dinner here again, but definitely for the happy hour drink specials. read more

Prices were good and staff was friendly. Menu was limited and food quality was okay. I dined with several friends. I would probably look for alternatives next time. read more

This is a great spot for hungry travelers looking for refined meat and potatoes dishes. The drinks are good and the jazz music is pleasant.

What a great meal, great service and felt like we had been coming here for years, ok, it felt like home. Visiting Paris with the family and was invited out to dinner with friends who live in the area. They recommended this place for its ambience, decent prices and beer selection. Off the traditional cafe route. Specials were marked on the chalkboard so if you have a problem with your eyes, don't forget to pack your glasses. (I have a teenager, I can say this) My daughter ordered a Cheeseburger and fries - the french way. She said the ketchup wasn't what she was used to. She described it as being chunky and different. The serving portion was huge. My son had the special, ribs. Great flavor, homecooked. I opted for a lighter meal, salad special (I'd been eating a lot of croissants this week) The wait staff was attentive. Seating is on benches like and very tight, everyone crammed in together, but after a couple of drinks, no one cared. It's loud and and dark. The owner was fun and even though our French was a bit rough (ok, we cheated we made our friend order for us) the owner took a few moments to ask about us, who we were etc. They only had one dessert option. My daughter was disappointed, but our native guides said.. "this is France, you get what they give you" It was a funny take. Kind of like take it or leave it, but not in a bad way, just in .. this is how we are way. It was part of our entire cultural experience. This place won't be for everyone, it's loud and crowded and has a dark tavern-like atomsphere. Don't expect to have an "intimate" romantic meal here. You will have good comfort food, local color and a great experience that is off the trendy tourist cafe hub. read more

Great place! Kim is the best bartender. He helped us figure out which beers would be best for my wife and I and totally nailed it. We ordered a plate of beef tartare to share and it was perfect. Great atmosphere and super nice bartender. We sat at the bar and felt like we were at a neighborhood bar back at home. Welcoming and friendly. read more
