6/10If you’re visiting the Eiffel Tower and looking for a convenient place nearby to grab a bite and a glass of wine, Le Bistro Parisien is a solid option. Located just steps from the tower, right by the river and the boat tour docks, it offers a lovely view of the Eiffel Tower—especially in the evening. We made an 8pm reservation and were seated promptly. The outdoor seating is quite tight, with tables very close together, so don’t expect much privacy or space. The menu is fairly limited, with only a handful of options. We ordered the salmon but were told substitutions (like swapping zucchini for mashed potatoes) weren’t possible. The burger and fries were fine, and the kids’ chicken breast and pasta with cheese sauce were okay, though our kids didn’t love them. Service was a bit slow—understandably so, as it looked like there was only one waiter handling all the outdoor tables. As for drinks, the mojito and Moscow mule were just average- presentation and flavor could be better.

6.5/10The view was amazing with the table right next to the Eiffel Tower. Can’t be beat! However, the salmon portion was so tiny and the chicken on my wife’s Cesar salad was dry and hard. I guess you pay for the view.

6/10We chose this restaurant because it was near the Eiffel Tower and you may have a great view of it depending on where you sit Also because it was very conveniently located steps away from our Seine river cruise. The service was good but the food was not. We ordered grilled octopus that was tiny slices sitting on a curry-flavored chickpea puree. Not my favorite flavor and so little octopus. When the steak came, we couldn’t cut into it. It just wasn’t a good piece of meat so we actually sent it back and asked for a burger instead. The burger was good (I added salt) but the chopped meat seemed to fall apart in the dish. Unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend this place for anything more than a drink.

Everything was great except for the food. For a kids meal why give an entire chicken breast to a child? It’s not cut up or anything. For the price that could be better. The flavor just lacked for me on the salmon. Please include ice with the water especially when it’s 85 degrees outside. It’s small things that matter. Genuine hospitality goes a long way.

I took my mom here to celebrate her 79th birthday with a view of the Eiffel Tower. It was an amazing experience! The food was average, our dishes didn't arrive at the same time and the appetizers came after we were eating our main course, but the birthday experience provided by our waiter was top notch! I mentioned it was her birthday to the host when we arrived and after our dinner our very sweet waiter brought her dessert, with a sparkling candle, singing happy birthday and the best part... he timed the end of the happy birthday with the start of the sparkling lights of the tower. It was incredible and beautiful!! The quality of the food weights heavily on this rating, which is a bit of a shame in our case because the service was much more significant in our experience. This was my mom's first (and possibly only) visit to Paris and that's a memory we'll both forever cherish. Thank you so much!

6.5/10Manager was kind, attentive and reserved the best table for us, from where we had a perfect view of the Eiffel Tower. However, the waiters were slow and worked in a tired and unmotivated manner. The table was never cleared, and the dessert never arrived. It was our daughter's birthday, and we wanted to sing happy birthday, but we ended up eating dessert in a hurry and standing up (they didn't even charge us), because the dinner table hadn't been cleared. It took 45 minutes between finishing the main course and them bringing the desert, and they never cleared the plates! The food was mediocre, and the kids' burger was tiny. Pay for the ambiance and the view and the manager big smile. These aspects alone made it worth it.

2/10I was not able to make my reservation. One person in our group was unable to walk the steps to get to the restaurant. That should be mention that there is no elevator to get down to the platform. The US does a better job of making things accessible.

9.5/10Quick service. We're on a tight schedule and the food came quickly so we're on schedule with our next itinerary. The fried potatoes were very fresh and good. They bill also came as soon as we finished our meal. Great service.

6/10Food was terrible. Location and ambiance was nice IF you could get a view of the Eiffel tower. The lighting was bright so it casted a glare on pictures we tried to take from inside. Suggest to go during the day rather than at night. The menu was limited as well.

6/10I've been a few times and I've always stayed overlooking the tower. Last time they put me at a table at the back of the boat with no view of the tower. According to the restaurant, all the tables with a view were reserved. At the end of my dinner, I left and all the tables were still empty.

5/10The service staff were very friendly and prompt. I can’t have dairy due to breastfeeding and when I asked for the pasta without cheese I was brought a bowl of PLAIN pasta. €20 and they bring me plain pasta due to the spinach and pesto being already mixed with cheese, they were unable to provide the dish without cheese however this wasn’t explained upon ordering and I was expected to eat a bowl of pasta. Request dish such as a burger without cheese this proved to be challenge as apparently “I was meant to know that it came pre mixed” after 10 minutes of back and forth they agreed to change my order. My dinner party had eaten and drank before my meal came (waiting 20 minutes) for a cold burger and chips to arrive. The steak was served fatty and not a great cut for €32 you get a literal half edible steak and an and full of chips. No salad no veg not even a mushroom! Go for a drink enjoy the view don’t waste your money eating here I wish I hadnt! X3 meals X4 drinks €118!

10/10Le Bistro Parisien is a lovely spot after or before an Eiffel Tower visit. A 7 minute walk from the tower, the restaurant offers a beautiful view, lovely staff and delicious food.
