    At bistro Gisele we experienced the perfect Parisian vibe while being in Paris. The vibe was great; the place, typical at a corner of two streets was filled with people, as well inside as outside on the curbs. The food was good. Pure ingredients were used and the size of the meals was good as well. There is enough to choose from so everyone had something they liked. In terms of service the people were welcoming, food and drinks were out pretty quick and with the Fork 20%off the price vs value was very okay. We are happy to have experienced this bistro, would definitely recommend it.

    Hello Roosmarijn, thank you so much for this vivid and thoughtful review! We’re delighted that you felt the true Parisian spirit during your visit, that lively corner, the energy of the room, and the terrace atmosphere are exactly what we love to share. It’s wonderful to hear that both the food and the service lived up to your expectations, and that everyone found something to enjoy. We’re also glad the experience felt like great value, especially with The Fork offer. Your recommendation truly means a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back soon for another authentic Bistrot moment! Gisèle Group

    Many thanks to our server Kimmy, the bartender, & all the staff who made our 40th anniversary dinner so special. It is now our favourite place to dine in Paris. Thank you Bistrot Gisèle and Happy Birthday Kimmy!

    Food and service were fine and prices were below average. But visitors to Paris should know that Gisele is a very plain local restaurant in a non-descript neighborhood with no ambience other than the sporty caps worn by the staff.

    Super nice resturant, we were there during rush hour dinner time, they had a new waiter and its took some time to get the food, but that was weighted up by the nice atmosphere, waitress and good quality food. All things considered with a 50% of the food it was really good, would come back at a leas busy time to get full ”potential” of the resturant.

    Bistrot Gisèle

    Average food, very warm inside. One rude waitor who didn't know his boundaries towards a female guest. Won't visit again.

    Great service and food. Duck was very delicious. Cocktails are good! Though for wine lovers not recommended, wine is served warm and you won’t enjoy it even buying expensive one (we bought one in the middle price range and it tasted like cheap booz from average supermarket).

    Bistrot Gisèle

    Hello Nazar, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We're so glad you enjoyed your dishes and the cocktails. We appreciate your feedback about the wine and will take it to heart as we aim to improve every detail for our guests. Gisèle Group Team

    It was a really fun place, with an authentic zinc bar and waiters with attitude (a good thing!). But the food was barely passable, the duck confit lacking its mandatory crisp skin and the Cordon Bleu dry and flavorless. There are too many better options in Paris to spend €100 on dinner to go back.

    Bistrot Gisèle

    Hello Patrick and Mary Jo, Thank you for your feedback! We're so glad to hear that you had a great time with our team and loved the zinc bar ! We are sorry that the food did not complete your expectations but we can’t wait to welcome you back for another visit to improve ourselves ! Gisèle Group Team

    We had an amazing experience at the Bistro! Everything was perfectly prepared for our arrival – our table was set in a beautiful, cozy spot, and there was even a real candle on the table, adding a romantic and warm atmosphere to the evening. The dishes were absolutely exceptional – not only delicious but beautifully presented. If you're craving authentic French cuisine, this is the place to go! The staff were outstanding – attentive and friendly. Alexander, in particular, was very polite and knowledgeable, explaining the dishes and recommending the best options. It felt like true professionalism in every interaction. We were absolutely thrilled with our dinner, and we’ll definitely be back! Highly recommended!

    Server was really nice and food was very good. Was occasionally loud but the windows were closed that night due to rain otherwise would have been fine. Only downside is they didn’t apply the Fork discount we had and we didn’t want to make a fuss since it would only have been about €10.

    Food was good but as a Fork reservation, we got a smaller portion than what a neighboring table got. The waiter refused to speak in French. Annoying.

    Bistrot Gisèle

    Hello Jacqueline! Thank you for your feedback. We are happy that you enjoyed the quality of our cuisine. Regarding the portion sizes, we would like to clarify that they are the same for all our customers, whether they book via The Fork or not. So it is a misunderstanding. Finally, we regret that communication with the server was not smooth, and we will take this into account to improve our customers' experience. We hope to see you again soon for a more pleasant moment. Bistrot Gisèle - Paris 2
