    The food was average to okay. My risotto was dreadful and had to be sent back. It was not freshly cooked and was soggy mashed rice - the worst risotto I have ever had in a restaurant.

    We had a delicious dinner in a nice atmosphere where we could communicate easily with each other. We were the first to arrive when they opened at 7:15 but the restaurant was filled by 7:45. Excellent service. Make a reservation.

    Very simple, but well cooked and flavoursome food. Correct quantities for us. The server was pleasantly humorous and efficient. Total cost for 2 persons, including a bottle of wine E106

    Food was ok, but nothing extraordinary, and quite expensive for what it was.

    Great traditional little French restaurant, fab atmosphere and everyone was eating ‘grandma’s chicken’ which came with lit thyme stuck in it. Definitely recommend.

    We had a wonderful dining experience here! The food was absolutely delicious — both the tartare and the chicken were outstanding. The atmosphere was charming and relaxed, with not too many people around, which made it even more enjoyable. We had dinner at one of the tables set on the pavement, adding to the cozy and pleasant vibe. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. The owner was especially warm and attentive, and the waitress was genuinely friendly and helpful throughout the evening. A truly great spot with excellent food and service — highly recommended!

    One of the worst restaurants I’ve ever been to my life and nonetheless it was in the town for food Paris. I suggest anyone that’s reading this. Stay clear of this restaurant when you are served stale French bread in Paris you know that you need to leave I actually didn’t even sit for the meal. I paid for my appetizer and water and got out before I got a vile meal.

    Simply the best deserts we’ve ever had. The Creme brûlée and three deserts in a plate were superb. A simple but perfect and authentic French restaurant

    It was a disappointing evening. Apparently they had a new waiter starting that evening and in a nutshell - he ruined the evening for us. We all ordered - finally - and we were enjoying our appetizer when my daughter and I were served our main course (we hadn’t yet finished our appetizers) and my granddaughter was served the wrong main course. We were told it would take a few minutes so we waited while our food got cold. We finally started eating. We then noticed that other tables were all being served, many of whom were served the hamburger she never got. Clearly they should have given her the first one available as we were already served. Nope. 25 minutes later she got a very small burger wrapped in a full size roll as if they cooked the scraps remaining from the other burgers. They did take the burger off the bill but for her to be served well after we finished was unacceptable. I do not recommend.

    Le Petit Littre is a small neighborhood restaurant with great ambience if you like small intimate places. We went early, at 7:15, and it was very quiet, but by 8:00 there was a lively crowd, pleasantly noisy. This was just down the street from our hotel, which made it even more appealing.

    The meal was of a high standard. Choose the Marmite d’Escargots! Staff started very attentive then lost interest. Decor needs drastic update, would hate to see it in daylight.

    We had a lovely dinner at this resto, served by Jean-Baptiste who was wonderful, kind and friendly. The dishes are made with great quality ingredients, and we enjoyed a proper French menu selection. We had an outdoor table on a summer evening so that was really pleasant too. Fairly priced for a well-reviewed Paris resto.

    Le Petit Littre is on a cute side street and the atmosphere is charming. The food was very underwhelming. I had fish that was well seasoned, but presented on top of an entire plateful of over cooked, heavily buttered snow peas. My son had the steak, which was extremely tough and full of tendons. He had a difficult time cutting it and even harder time chewing it. The meat wasn’t seasoned and the fries it came with were limp and soggy. We chose this restaurant based on previous reviews and were very disappointed in both the quality and taste of the food. It was a shame.

    This restaurant is a classic French hole in the wall restaurant frequented mostly by locals. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. The menu was somewhat limited but had an excellent selection of dishes. Prices were very reasonable. We would definitely go there again.

    We wandered by a few nights ago and saw how charming this little restaurant was. We made a reservation as this is a small local restaurant and could not be happier with our choice. Fantastic food, great service and a perfect choice of music to start the evening off! We will definitely return here next time we’re in Paris and encourage anyone who is interested in a beautiful and authentic Paris meal to check this place out!

    My fourth trip to Paris and this was by far the best meal I’ve had. The salmon and beef bourgogne are highly recommended!

    A great spot for dinner! A small menu well prepared. The chicken cutlet is great, crispy and juicy at the same time. The menu says they do a cheeseburger very well and they do! Don’t miss this terrific neighborhood spot in the 6th!

    Great little find in Montparnasse. The breaded chicken cutlet was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The pasta with lemon cream sauce was outstanding. Don’t miss the chocolat mousse. Will definitely be back!

    When I booked this restaurant it was because it was near our hotel. It was excellent and well worth travelling to from a distance, The staff were friendly and the food was excellent. In the Paris context it was good value for great quality. When in Paris you have a tonne of choice so seek out this gem:-)

    Risotto was not that good as well the beer. Hambúrguer was ok. Service was attentive but slow. They were just 2 and restaurant was full. Long time to wait form starter to main course.

    Really good local restaurant. Food and ambience lovely and staff great. Service a little slow as only two waiters on the floor. Slight downside was we didn't get the advertised 20% discount for a 7 pm booking as the kitchen didn't open till 7.30?

    Lovely little place, good food, friendly welcoming service. Food came out really quickly, from point of order to service was rapid but took nothing away from the experience.
