7/10We had the duck with olives, but unfortunately, it was quite underwhelming. The staff is very nice, as is the ambiance, but sadly, the best parts of today’s meal were the sides, the bread, and the butter.

7/10Allard has the vibe of an old style bistro. The lunch menu options are delicious. I had the trout main which was light and flavourful paired with spinach and mushrooms. You can pass on the macaroni and comté. The cognac crème brûlée was like a custard egg nog. Delicious. Service was uneven and I had to contest two items on the bill. I found the wine by the glass/carafe very overpriced. A bizarre part of the experience - I was with an Asian friend and we were seated in a smaller room next to the bar with other three other tables of Asian guests. No Asians in the main dining room. Coincidence? The food was great. The experience less so.

4.5/10Too many seats for the area available, led to a cramped dining experience. We had to move our table to get out from our seats. Also the waitress was inappropriate on a number of occasions.

7.5/10We were stuck in a very uncomfortable corner by the bar. All during our meal, we had to deal with the staff coming in and out of the bar area.

9.5/10Food was absolutely divine. As a solo female wit high little French I felt slightly uncomfortable to begin with but within minutes I felt at ease. Wonderful Sunday lunch - the frogs legs are a must try!

9/10This was our second visit to Allard after many years as we were keen to eat the delicious duck with olives signature dish once against n. We were not disappointed! The food was delicious and beautifully served. Wine not cheap but excellent. Our only criticism is that the tables are very small and tightly packed in so that staff and customers bump into you when passing.

9/10Love the intimate setting. The service, attention to detail was outstanding. The snails were incredible. The bottle of wine perfectly matched for what we choose to order. I’ve eaten at Allard my last 3 visits to Paris. It is one of my favorite restaurants in the world. I will say the chicken for two was a little more dry than I remember it tasting this visit compared to the previous times I ordered it.

10/10I found this restaurant on my way to a boulangerie and I highly recomend it. I had legs frog as a starter and my wife had mushrooms that both were very tasty. Then we both had scallops with a good white wine . As desert, one profiterole and babá au rum. I will be back for sure, I could not miss talking about the sommelier that was Nice and helpfull. I highly recomend this typical french restaurant .

2.5/10I very rarely write a bad review and never without first writing to the restaurant to advise them of what was wrong and giving them the opportunity to respond professionally. I've been waiting for a week now and there has been no response so I assume senior management at Allard view negative customer experiences as the floor staff do; with complete indifference and arrogance. I only ever select restaurants for special occasions from the Michelin Guide and have found their reviews to be very reliable. To sum up our experience of Allard, as my husband said upon leaving, "it was a blight on the name of Alain Ducasse" The mains were both served cold and when we politely pointed this out the staff removed them and returned them only slightly less cold than before. My husband's beef was suddenly half the size and my fish was returned with 4 pathetic small white stalks of silver beet, not the vegetables I had originally had been served and that were uneaten as was the cold meal when it was returned. This restaurant reeks of an arrogance that exploits the good name of a great chef, and prays on foreigners with big wallets. I wrote to Michelin and copied the letter I wrote to Allard and they replied politely and appropriately. Allard didn't even bother to reply to my email. I would never ever return and suggest if you're wanting to celebrate a special occasion in Paris, your business should be taken elsewhere. There are plenty of wonderful young chefs who are producing incredible food and care deeply about their customer's satisfaction. Support them and not this sham of a restaurant.
