    Extremely slow service once the restaurant started to fill up, and Incredibly slow about getting the bill so I could pay for my meal and be on my way.

    The food was good but it was the environment-- the owner, the musical entertainment, the warm sense of community, especially as American tourists, made it a wonderful experience.

    Not only was is an Edith Piaf (voice and accordion) show but they involved everyone in the restaurant in a sing-a-long. Although it was mainly tourists it was lots of fun and a great immersion in the neighbourhood and music of Piaf.

    You don't go for the food, you go for the authentic experience and music. Go for the joy of being in the moment....life in a time long gone.

    Loved everything about this place!!it was our first night back in Paris and met a friend from New York who happened to be in Paris too. This is the ultimate French dinner experience. So many locals! Met lovely people from Germany sitting at table next to us! The woman who played the accordion and led the singing was fabulous! Can’t wait to go back next week for the Edith’s Piaf night! The food was good and staff amazing. Thank you for a wonderful evening!

    One of our best evenings in Paris. A chance to go back in time to a French café in the mid-20th century, full of mostly regulars, enjoying the music of that era. While we were amongst the minority who were tourists, and not French speakers at that, everyone was made to feel welcome. Great music both by a very accomplished accordionist, and a talented vocalist.

    The lamb shank was excellent! I did not have an entree or dessert so I cannot comment. The glass of Bordeaux was perfect with the lamb. The music was great fun and the diners sang along with enthusiasm. The Edith Piaf tunes were great! I would reccommend highly.

    I was there with old friends of mine. We were tired from the Olympic games and commuting in Paris in general. As soon as the accordion music - french chançons started, we forgot about our fatigue. We laughted, we sang and we danced. We will never forget that night. Thank you to all the people working there! Merci beaucoup!

    Cute upbeat, and friendly. The accordion player and beautiful singer began after 9 and was well with the trek up the hill thru the park. I want to go back. Tuesdays there’s entertainment you don’t want to miss!

    It was an absolutely fantastic evening. The food was excellent. I was a bit concerned when I arrived in the area and the restaurant was small but it was excellent. The music was brilliant and I really enjoyed singing along to the music of Edith Piaf. I would highly recommend it as an experience, particularly if you are a fan of Edith Piaf. Thank you.

    For our last night in Paris we got to chat and sing with strangers from all over. Germans, Poles, Americans, Canadians and French alike. The songs are well known and the night was fun!

    We had the most wonderful evening at Le Vieux Belleville. The food was excellent, also the service. But the best of all was the singer with her accordéoniste and the Edith Piaf songs! Such a fabulous experience. Thanks to everyone at the restaurant. A really fun evening.

    Very athmosferik place. Interior if charming. Food is good and affordable. Very hot in summer, no AC and no air. Music is great and worth the suffering. Local painter cold paint nice picture while you enjoy the colorful singer.
