    Cute place for dinner on our last night in Paris. You’re greeted right away as you enter. Stay is very friendly and welcoming. Food was delicious!

    Unfortunately, Il Gigolo is a hard pass. The food is pretty bad but the weirdest thing is that they seem to just serve you whatever they want. I ordered a ceasar salad and got something that was endive and buffala mozzerella and few cherry tomatoes- no croutons or capers in sight. Then the same thing happened to the woman next to me! We laughed about it. She got the random salad of the day too. And the runners just drop it and go- there is no chance to say this is not what you want and you won’t see the server that took the order again until the bill comes. My son ordered penne and got spaghetti. We sat for 20 minutes without water. And on top of it, the food isn’t great- sauce out of a can type stuff. It’s an adorable place, and we were all in a great mood, but the total randomness of the service and food is… ridiculous. It is convenient and picturesque but we won’t go back.

    This restaurant did hearty, straight-forward Italian very well. Don’t be put off by the decor. The service (in English) and the food were superior for this type of restaurant 😀

    While they had our Fork reservation, it was delayed. The place is way too busy. After seated we waited 30 min at our table before someone remembered to take our order, and we almost left. The silverware was dirty. The wine glasses were dirty. When we received our drinks they brought us water but no glasses for it. The food was tasty, but I would not choose to come back due to the crazy environment and poor service.

    A perfect restaurant! The pizza was among the best we've ever had – absolutely delicious. And the limoncello? Hands down the tastiest we've tried. Highly recommended for a flavorful and enjoyable experience! 🍕🍋

    Went in May 2025 with young family of three, ages 9-14. Friendly welcoming staff. Spoke English when they knew we spoke little French (we are from Scotland). Lovely food. Everyone happy!

    Amazing food, fun service and great atmosphere! What a find. We absolutely loved this place. In term of menu, food and flavours definitely up there as one of the best Italian restaurants we've been luck enough to stroll across. Can't understand the reason for some of the bad reviews but I note that none, quite rightly, complain about the food. I think perhaps if you're seeking a quiet romantic date-night for two, it may not be what you're looking for, but if you're looking for a bit of relaxed fun with friends whilst enjoying high quality Italian food and are open to being amused by the typical endearing Italian staff - then get booked!

    Found the staff on the floor very very friendly & helpful, found the lady & man who appeared to maybe be management / owners very stressful and quite a bad vibe from them. I understand hospitality is stressful, but your staff are all delightful and friendly, the food is lovely, if yous appeared more relaxed, the restaurant would be perfect

    The restaurant was incredible, we were celebrating our birthdays and got a song and some panacotta and mouse with drinks on the house. There was an amazing atmosphere with music and singing and the customer service was amazing. I will for sure come here again. Furthermore, the food was very good and great value for what we paid. Very satisfied with this restaurant.
