Sadly disappointing Very charming small restaurant for which we had great hopes. On the positive side the main courses were all excellent as were 2 of the 4 starters. The wine recommendations for the starters and main courses were very good. I found it odd to be asked to put my phone away by the maître d’ while I was trying to translate menu items for my family. The desserts were very ordinary. On ordering a dessert wine a half bottle of something from 1999 was produced - it wasn’t anything I recognised. The cork disintegrated on opening and when poured the wine was clearly off. The maître d’ said he thought it was “magnifique” but he would replace it. He then brought a rosé that was oxidised and unpalatable so we declined. By this time we had clearly earned the maître D’s disdain as his attitude became quite rude and surly. This was not a cheap meal and it could have been brilliant but the haughty, unfriendly service ruined the evening for us. Corked bottles are a fact of life and if handled correctly with good humour can be easily dealt with. This was the opposite and, sadly, we would not return.

This little restaurant was a super find, short but good menu, great service and a little live music. Will return!

Lovely ambience and the food is suberb - it's like a step back into a gentile past and you could be in a little village in the country. The waiter was very funny - he wouldn't give us water for some hilarious reason but we he recommended a wonderful wine....

Some restaurants make you feel happy when dining. Few restaurants do more than this one to make you feel happy. Traditional French cuisine in a great atmosphere with personal and approachable service.

This restaurant is a true gem. We learned about the Fork during a recent visit to Paris from our home in California. The room is small, charming, and elegant. The hosts were warm and inviting and were so helpful with translating the menu. The food and wine were excellent, as good as the Michelin-rated restaurants we ate at on this trip, and the ambiance was perfect. A must-visit while in Paris. While it is tucked away in the 15th Arrisdisment, it is worth your time.

What a find! It was really good, unpretentious, but meticulously executed traditional French food. We enjoyed it thoroughly. Quite reasonably priced as well. A gem.

What an absolute delight to dine at this tiny restaurant! It was a warm early evening so we opted to eat at one of the small outdoor tables. My son and I both had the Magret de Canard and we both loved it. The duck was tender and flavorful and potatoes so yummy. I wanted to keep eating even after I was full! The restaurant is on a quiet side street and unassuming to look at, but obviously takes pride in delivering elegant, refined food. Wholeheartedly recommend,

A very lovely, cozy neighborhood hidden gem. We arrived the restaurant early and it soon began slowly filled up with other diners. The food is authentic French and of high quality. Great surprise came with the dessert as it was a birthday celebration. We enjoyed the meal very much.

A place full of character and excellent food, provided by the charismatic waiter that has been there for 40 years (at least as old as the furniture and the decor). English is no problem, cards are fine as well. This is food. Our best experience in Paris this year

The food was tasty and well presented; the atmosphere was perfect. It might be difficult to understand the menu, but the host will kindly translate it to you.

Hidden gem! We had the perfect experience for what we were looking for: service was excellent & timely and the food delicious & authentic. It's also a calm place where you can have a conversation noise-free.

Returned after 15 years to find the same enchanting off the beaten track restaurant. The proprietor greeted us warmly and gave us his most charming service and extraordinary dinner which included salmon and poached egg and crayfish celeriac as starters . The most delicious roast duck and potatoes and steak tartare served with a small bowl of creamy mashed potato. Wine recommendation was superb as was the crepe with apple and perfectly curated French cheeses. He told us he is closing the restaurant in three months time after 30 years which is a great loss. We could not recommend this unique restaurant more . Simon and Emma Cape Town

One of a kind experience. Our family loved the food, the place and the kind owner whom so patiently guided us on our way. Only downside was that we just decided for the main course. So we have to visit Je thé…me again before returning home. Merci Je thé…me.
