    This was honestly one of our favorite meals in Paris. Everything we ordered was delicious. I had the croque monsieur and it was just delicious. Also tried the fish and chips and they were delicious; you can tell a homemade sauce too. The creme Brule was also just fabulous, best I've ever had! Our waiter was also so nice and quick. With it being a popular spot with the pretty location I really wasnt expecting much, but I was totally wrong! Don't miss this spot for good food.

    very good, friendly service (we wanted to change tables, which wasn't a problem); food was good (my medium steak was a bit too much on the 'well done' side); great spot for people watching

    The food was amazing and the place itself is beautiful. However, when we got there the host told us that he doesn’t have our reservation (which we made 1 month in advance and they confirmed) and that we have to wait for a table 20 minutes… that’s the only downside!

    The employee behind the bar coughed the entire time that I was there on utensils, food and everything around her. She never covered her mouth Not sanitary

    Too loud music and expensive given that it does not offer anything special. It is famous and it has a great view of the Eiffel Tower however, given that there are maaaany bistros like that in Paris, I would definitely go for another one

    The food was just okay. I recommended it to my friends and we ate there however it didn’t really suprise us or whatsoever. I would not recommend this place to be honest.

    The food was really disappointing. True French onion soup was overloaded with cheese so much there was hardly any soup! Then the main was cold! We complained and the waiter did not apologise and was unbothered. No reduction from the bill and bad service. Do not visit this restaurant to eat! Also very overpriced. We dined in some beautiful restaurants in Paris for a lot less money in more popular areas.

    Fabrice, our waiter, was FANTASTIC! The food, champagne and buzz of the restaurant were all I hoped it would be - a recruiter from Colorado! It was a dream to eat there. My wife and kids also enjoyed it a lot.

    Good food. Was pleasantly surprised by the Chicken Supreme and the atmosphere cannot be beat. Would suggest a sunset dinner or later so take full advantage of the Eiffel Tower view

    Service and ambiance was great. Food was mediocre. Not sure if all French cuisine is so bland, or it was just this restaurant, but the steak was a poor cut of meat and there was no seasoning whatsoever. Visit Paris for the pastries, but don't get your hopes up for the entrees.

    Steak was chewy at best. Not the best quality or service. Dinner was not brought for the person with soup while mains were served for the rest of the table. A 30 min delay for a meal for one of us

    We had the French onion soup, steak and chips and the duck. All the food was fantastic and we really enjoyed the atmosphere. Great service and friendly waiters. The Christmas decorations were a great addition

    We had a wonderful meal here after touring the Eiffel Tower. We arrived half an hour early than our reservation but the waitress let us in and asked us of we preferred indoor or outdoor seating. It was freezing though sunny so we stayed indoors. Servers are very attentive, cheerful and spoke English. The onion soup was delicious, well balanced flavors and I loved the generous amount of cheese and the crisp baguette in it. My partner enjoyed the steak frites done to his liking. The fries were very good too. Ambience was cute though it was quite noisy.

    Visited on Fete Nationale 2023. Greeted by a server who told me my resetvation meant nothing, they weren't doing réservations that day. Even though I had one. Seated me in a corner, ended meal by demanding a tip before she went off the clock. Food was average. You can do way better in any other bistro in Paris. Bon chance!
