    Adorable, cozy restaurant with very friendly wait staff. They could not have been more welcoming and then came the amazing food. We shared a wonderful salad with bacon and cheese and both of our meals were delicious! I had confit de canard (duck) and my partner had tuna. The chocolate dessert with whipped cream was to die for. The wine was perfect and served in beautiful glasses. We will be back!!

    We found just what were looking for in this small, neighborhood-type of generational restaurant with the balance of casual ambiance combined with amazing food. Every bite, each dish, the wine selection, all were what we had hoped to experience in this wonderful restaurant.

    Had a wonderful dinner here last night. We decided to have several starters rather than a main course, and they were all delicious. Onion tart was exceptional, as were salads and onion soup. The place is small but with a lively atmosphere; it was packed. Great service, despite a small staff and every table occupied. Really enjoyed it!

    This was lovely Paris restaurant serving fabulous regional food from Gascony accompanied by a good range of french regional wines. Well worth a return visit, if only we weren’t moving on tomorrow. But if you are in the area try it. You won’t be disappointed

    The ambiance matches the food. That was very pleasing in our first night out of home. Meant the journey is on! Excellent foie gras!

    Nice ambiance. Lots of sausage dishes for 25 euros. Very basic food at surprisingly high prices. I've been a few times before but this was the last time. Relaxed service. They were very patient when my date arrived 45 minutes late.

    The food was delicious. The waiters were warm, friendly and helpful especially since I don’t speak French and was eating solo.

    Good food but extremely slow service and very cramped space for eating, like 2 cm between the tables.

    A warm welcome, interesting menu, good quality food and fine cooking - the fish was perfectly done. The restaurant quickly filled up with a mix of all age groups and had a lively energy. We were there on a Monday so I think you need to book to be sure to get in. From the photos on the wall and the relaxed but efficient staff this definitely felt like a family run business. Thoroughly recommended.

    We went there based on all the extraordinary reviews. The menu was a hodgepodge of dishes. They were out of the best steak on the menu. The eggplant parmigiana was inedible .

    Absolutely great evening in this nice restaurant. They run out of beef this day cause we arrived late in the evening but the Pavé de Cochon was no let down at all and was more than tasty.

    We went as a group of 6 girls and couldn’t have been made to feel more welcome. We had a little bit of French between us and they were so happy to help translate the menu into English for us. The food was exceptional, stand out dishes were the ribs and apple tart that were both specials. The atmosphere was lovely, like being a guest in someone’s home and the rest of the crowd in there were Parisians who created a really lovely vibe. Thanks so much for a fantastic evening, we will be back! X

    Booked at the last minute and glad we did. Proper little French restaurant tucked away in a side street. Small menu but the daily slate is longer! Young servers all knew their stuff, spoke perfect English and were a pleasure. Recommended!

    Generally good food but not worth the price. Tables were waaaayyyy toooooo near each other and it felt more squashed up like a typical friends gathering, except we weren’t friends with our close by neighbours. Service is alright, some staff are more smiley than others which doesn’t help put the service at an equal high standard. Would not visit again.

    Quaint French restaurant with a farm to table concept. Friendly staff. My wife enjoyed her onion soup. She liked the flavors but wished she had more cheese. Her meatballs were delicious although she didn’t enjoy the raisins like I did. My pork was good but perhaps it was grass feed hence a bit too lean having less fat. We enjoyed the restaurant and would recommend it.

    This is an excellent restaurant with very good food and atmosphere. Be sure to make reservation ahead of time. Otherwise, you will need to wait in a long line or might not be able to get in.

    Such a great restaurant, we even went twice during our stay! The onion soup and the bruschetta were absolutely amazing. The staff were all very nice and translated the menu for us if we didn’t understand. It was a very nice atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

    We had a delightful experience here at La Becane a Gaston. We were celebrating our 30th anniversary in Paris and this turned out to be perfect. The dishes we ordered cooked to perfection. The service was great and the staff was cordial and helped us translate menu items. Everything was very nice.
