10/10Very friendly service. The decor in the restaurant is very homely and fun. The food is excellent. I like that the menu is short and can be done in shareable portions.

7/10We went to this restaurant to meet a friend. We ordered the starter what was ok. The maincourse was a small pan stew ( 20€per person so 60€ ) what was a very small portion for 3 adults. The cheese dessert was covered with salad en 3 pieces of cheese and panacotta was thin and made 3 days ago. Was definitely not fresh( the date was written on it. So a lot of money for what it was. Not recommanded. .

Dear , Thank you for your visit and for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. At Papy aux Fourneaux, we serve traditional French dishes in cast-iron cocottes, using fresh, seasonal ingredients from local producers. The portions are designed for sharing and are typically appreciated for their generosity, so we're truly sorry if this was not your feeling that day. As for the dessert, we pay close attention to freshness and traceability, which is why our team notes the preparation date — not as an expiry date, but to be transparent with our guests. However, if the quality seemed below standard, we regret not having the opportunity to address it on the spot. Your remarks have been shared with the kitchen and service teams for review. We hope to welcome you again and offer you a better experience that reflects the warmth and quality we aim to deliver. Best regards, The team at Papy aux Fourneaux

10/10Thé bœuf bourguignon, walnut tiramisu and chocolate cake were delicious! The cold eggplant terrine was also very good. Our server was kind. We liked the ambience a lot. The restaurant is tucked away on a quiet street.

+2This is my third time here, each time there’s something new on the menu and that makes it exceptional. I love the family style seating and the menus are always changing, which is a plus. The food is delicious. The train is approximately 500 feet from the restaurant so it’s easy to get to no matter where you are in the city. I would highly recommend this place and I plan on coming back. And I also showed two coworkers this spot and they both agree that it is phenomenal.

2/10Very bad arrangement for the table. I want a table with a close distance with my friend. They ask me to sit in a table like a dialog, not a dinner. Then I have to quit the restaurant.

10/10We just happened to find this little gem because we were staying close by! The food and atmosphere were outstanding. We had a friendly waiter who worked with us to help us understand the menu fully and took the time to write down several suggestions for places to visit during our short stay. We will make every effort to return for another amazing experience!

9/10It was so good!! Had something similar at a bigger restaurant in the city, and I was a bit bummed to be eating the same thing twice, but this place was SO GOOD it didn't feel like the same thing at all. Excellent quality, friendly service + in English

7/10The only vegetarian main lacked flavour and was uninspired and too expensive at €19.5 for a quinoa salad with eggs.

8/10Nice place with a concept that reminds me eating at my grandpa’s home, the drink list could be updated, but disappointed by the coffee which wasn’t great. I recommend it

10/10Really great food, only one waiter for all 8-ish tables but he was very efficient and thoughtful when choosing wines. We did the tasting menu and it was so creative and very filling. Would recommend.

3/10One of the worst food experience in my parisian life. I just don't get the other ratings. Food was not cooked the right way, plates were super hot but food was cold. Very expensive for the quality of food. As a true parisian I don't recommend this place. Over rated!!

10/10Everything was just perfect! The food was absolutely delicious, like homemade and the service nice and friendly. Loved the slightly eclectic and bohemian interiors. Ordered for 3 persons and it was more than enough for all of us.

6/10i thought the choice was extremely limited (just two main , two dessert and two starters) and the main dish of dorade was a very strange combination with the veal sauce..... the food is like rustic french. Maybe with a different menu it would have been better but I did not want to go out and eat chicken (option two of the menu) since is something that i cook at home a lot.........

10/10I love the food and the selections they have at this restaurant. I love the concept of sharing food and the setup but i found that the pricing and the way it was explained on the menu could have been clearer. I find that when we arrive with a group of friends, everyone gets quite confused and we have to ask around to understand how to proceed. Also, it would be really helpful if the 'selections of the day' could be either printed out for everyone or multiple blackboards can be placed around the restaurant so we dont have to wait for the waiter to come with the blackboard before beginning to select. and the writing is also really small and hard to read! other than that logistic concern, the food and the service is wonderful
