Came here as it was close to Galeries Lafayette and we needed to eat lunch. The beef tartare was a large portion and the onion soup was decent. The other items on the menu were basic. Decent service.

French Onion Soup
Stephanie M.

We came for a small quick meal on a Saturday at around 5:00pm. We had the french onion soup and the burger. The french onion soup was very good. The Cheese was nicely melted. Lots of onion. You could taste the beefy stock in it. Bread wasn't overly mushy. The burger was mediocre. Nothing special. Would skip the burger. Salad seemed kind of dead. The main event here is definitely the French Onion Soup. It's in a nice touristy location so lots of tourists eating in here. Service is very nice - English speaking. The bathroom is downstairs and really small but does the trick. Overall would recommend for French Onion Soup.

We ate at The Family on our first night in Paris Nov 6. The food, salmon and a salad with chicken were very good and just what we wanted. The drinks were generous and our waiters were very nice. I would recommend

What a little gem! Surprisingly good value considering the high traffic / touristy location, The Family is warm, cosy and welcoming with a great menu and wonderful staff. We picked this place based on other reviews we'd seen, and were not disappointed. We didn't feel rushed at all, but the service was very efficient and both food and drinks were delivered promptly by friendly servers. Families, couples and small groups were welcomed with equal hospitality, and The Family is a place I'll certainly recommend and return to.

It's a small hole in a wall restaurant but the food was amazing. They have their menu on a small blackboard that they move from one table to another. The food was amazing, i ordered steak & it was cooked to perfection. The service was as impeccable! I truly enjoyed this place & pricing was good too!

Friendly sight coming into the restaurant

So convenient after a long day of walking around Galleries Lafayette and Printemps! The Family is located around the corner from H&M Very nice host and hostess. They helped us pick out the menu items All the fish was very good! We had the ceviche and sea bass. Great presentation and had a combination of fruits & veggies The pasta chorizo was perfect to share - loved the cheese that came with this and the sauce wasn't too creamy or overwhelming Amazing, had to give this 5 stars

Bear meeting our family at Family

Food was great. Service was even better. It was a little warm inside for us, (US) but cooled off eventually. Still, it was a great place to go near Gare St. Lazare. Steak entree, onion soup and chocolate Mousse for dessert were great

GREAT service and food! We were greeted with friendly smiles and the staff was awesome! Loved the food!

Steak, blue cheese sauce and cheesy potatoes.

We just finished shopping at Galleries LaFayette and all of our group were STARVING! We opened Yelp! to search for a close by restaurant and The Family appeared. We read the reviews and walked the 500 feet to the restaurant. My sister had the deviled egg starter, which she said was amazing!! My sister and I had the fish of the day, which was laid upon a bed of mixed veggies and a light cream sauce. My wife and our friend both had the steak with cheesy mash potatoes. All of us LOVED our meals....when the food arrived, all that was heard was OH MY GOD!, Mmmmm, etc, etc!!! I am writing this review BEFORE my dessert of espresso and a dessert tasting plate because I expect it to be equally delicious!! I will definitely return on my next trip to Paris!

Oh my goodness, what a find! We stopped here for no better reason than our apartment was right…read morearound the corner and we were in the mood for a nice French lunch. Such good luck! I started with the free-range eggs with mayo, and my wife started with the leeks with vinaigrette. The eggs were delicious, but the leeks may have been the best preparation I've ever had in my life. For our main courses, she had the egg muffin, and I had the sausage and mash. Our meal was superb. Whoever is in the kitchen has clearly learned the art of French cuisine well. Service was fantastic, the people-watching (we ate al fresco) was fantastic, and I simply couldn't think of a way to make this a better meal.

How was flying out Charles de Gaulle Airport the next day and I just arrived from Frankfurt Germany…read moreby train when I looked up a French restaurant near the Gard du Nords train station and found BB. Luca was my server and he was very welcoming in hospitable to this weary traveler. I sat on the patio towards the end of the row so I could take in the atmosphere and people watch a bit. Luca Recommended a meal with a mashed potatoes and sausage with French bread and salad and it sounded tasty so I gave it a go! All the flavors went well together; mashed potatoes were well seasoned the sausage had a good flavor, and the salad with the vinaigrette added a crunch in an extra flavor as well. I drank a French hard cider while I gobbled up my meal, which also was new for me and tasted great after I was done my meal. Luke brought me a shot with rum and some other ingredients, including lemon that definitely hit the spot after a good meal.I recommend Brasserie Belanger for anyone near GDN Train Station that enjoys great food and patio dining. Cheers!

There were also tables outside but not many. The ambiance is good. The music is a bit loud for the amount of people that were dining in. The atmosphere is quite romantic with the dimmed lighting and the candles but the music does not set that tone whatsoever. Props to our server for bringing us extra plates when we mentioned we would be sharing the appetizer. Beef bourguignon with mashed potatoes (5/5): the portions were worth it for the price. They were quite sizable. When I was cutting, I could tell the beef was so tender. The meat was marinated very well and deep into it. Tap to pay is accepted. Overall, La Cave Gourmande is a small cute restaurant for some delicious french food. I highly recommend their beef bourguignon.

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.

Food: Of the things we ordered, I tried the: - Frog Legs - Puff pastry with snails - Duck breast - Ribeye steak - Chicken stuffed with foie gras - Creme brulee - Chocolate delight Everything was unbelievably good. The food was clearly homemade with care, and prepared with fresh ingredients. One thing I appreciated was that the food was not oily or greasy. I dream of the duck, frog legs, creme brulee, and chocolate delight - this was the best duck and creme brulee I have ever had. The duck and steak came with AMAZING potato wedges, which may be my favorite part of the meal. Service: this restaurant is a small family restaurant, owned by a father who cooks. His daughter managed the front of the restaurant when I dined here. She was incredibly friendly, spoke both French and English, and provided wonderful recommendations. Environment: This restaurant is exactly what I think of as a cozy Parisian cafe. It is located in a corner next to a long flight of stairs, and has approximately 10 tables. The restaurant is decorated so that is feels inviting and warm, but not small.

My wife and I came here after hiking around Montmartre and saw all the great reviews for this…read morerestaurant here and on other sites. We were so looking forward to the frog legs, onion soup and other delicacies pictured. We got there and the sign was just as it was with the same name -- Au Pied du Sacre Coeur. We should've noticed something was wrong when no one was inside. When the waiter (lone person working along with cook) gave us the menu, my wife and I stared at each other completely confused. The menu looked nothing like the ones on this website and featured Italian food items, like spaghetti, arroz con pollo or mozarella. I asked him about frog legs or the onion soup. He looked confused and just said no. Out of respect for him, we just ordered the charcuterie, which featured stale bread and a few slices of meat taken from my local grocery store in the U.S. Also -- they claimed to not accept any international credit cards. WHAT HAPPENED? Are all these reviews fake? Most likely, they underwent new ownership right when we visited. But new visitors -- please beware. Do not trust any of the reviews before mine. If I was mistaken, please post photos and just tell me that I was part of some elaborate joke to ruin a lunch for me and my wife.
