    We have returned to La Cagouille on each of our trips to Paris from the US for over 30 years. We have never been disappointed.

    Tucked away in the quiet square of Place Constantin Brancusi in the 14th arrondissement, La Cagouille is one of those rare Parisian institutions that feels at once timeless and grounded, a place where seafood takes center stage without artifice. The restaurant doesn’t rely on sweeping views or haute cuisine theatrics. Instead, its draw lies in its steadfast dedication to ultra-fresh, simply prepared fish, and a warm, unpretentious atmosphere that immediately feels like a local secret—even if it's been quietly renowned for decades.

    Good food, vibes and services But unfortunately no coques à la vapeur and mussels for today. So, I'll be back again for sure

    I came to this restaurant last week with a friend because of the wide variety of white wines. The food was fresh and delicious, and the service was incredibly friendly. I came back again today, but the wine I was looking for wasn’t available. Instead, I received a recommendation for another wine, which turned out to be from one of my favorite Meursault producers. The wine’s condition was excellent, and I was touched by the detailed introduction to the domaine and the manager’s history. I think I’ll be coming here often—truly the best!

    To me, this is the best restaurant in Paris. Lovely menu of fish always prepared perfectly, a warm ambiance, impeccable service and the wine list is the absolute best.

    Very special restaurant. Service was friendly and professional and the restaurant is comfortable with well controlled sound levels so is not uncomfortable for noise levels a nice change from many. The food is simple presentation of high quality fresh ingredients cooked perfectly. The choice is enough but not long and it is exclusively fish something to be aware of. I had a view of the kitchen where the team worked well ensemble and did not seem stressed. My only complaint was service felt just a little bit rushed hence 4 and not 5 stars. We will return as this is a real find and also a rare treat in a market so overcrowded with often mediocre offerings.

    Fresh seafood and the razor clams are amazing. We also enjoyed the mini clams as their included starter appetizer.. Servers are very attentive in explaining the menu board. Food is not salty with minimal sauce, so you can taste the freshness of the seafood.

    Best wine experience I’ve ever had in Paris hands down. Food is amazing and on par with the best that San Sebastián and Marbella Spain has to offer. Freshest seafood in all of Paris. A wine list to kill for. Do not miss this place.

    Seafood was served fresh with delicious marination. Service was impeccable as the waiter went the extra mile to explain the menu for the day, given that we were tourists and non-French speaking. Will definitely head back to La Cagouille when my husband and I are back in Paris!

    We had a lovely evening at the restaurant with pleasant and helpful staff, a great ambience and good food ( perhaps a little under-seasoned for our taste).The wine list was extensive and our less pricey choice proved delicious.
