    The waiter assumed that as an American I wanted my steak medium rare and I like it rare….he was a bit condescending

    This is our third trip to Restaurant Paul and by far the best. Sat outside on a rainy October evening but our waiter Stephan made the experience perfect. A mix of attentiveness and discretion coupled with humor and knowledge. We may came back again this trip before going back to the States. Restaurant Paul is absolutely our favorite eating establishment in Paris. Cheers to the whole team.

    Besides the absolutely delicious food and friendly attentive service, the restaurant was cozy with windows looking out at the path by the Seine in back and Place Dauphine in front. We just loved this place.

    Best food we have had in Paris, and in the top 10 best meals of our life! Lovely staff, central, quiet location. This place is a must.

    Atmosphere was great in Place du Duphin, 15 minutes before water offered, overall pleasant dinning experience.

    This was an authentic French restaurant with escargot, burrata and duck. Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted so good. Ambience was perfect and service was kind and efficient. Memorable place

    We really liked this little restaurant located at Place Dauphine in Paris. The place is nice if you want a calm environment to talk and eat good food. Service is friendly.

    Very very disappointed. It took an hour and a half for the dinner to be served and the steak was almost inedible

    French cuisine at its best! Lunch in a beautiful square, restaurant has lots of history. Foie gras, rabbit, and cafe gourmand were delicious. Three courses with wine for 2 people was 180 euros, Food and service were high quality, we will definitely return!

    We ate here in September and were seated outside, facing Place Dauphine. It was so very special. This is a completely different experience in the winter months. Food was ok, but I think there are better options in March.

    Nice spot.. nice place. But pudding on a hot plate was cold in the middle and the veal which was cooked well was served in uncrispy bacon sort of makes you wonder how it was cooked. Service good.

    Twenty years ago I frequented this little restaurant while working in Paris. It was wonderful then & fabulous now. Situated on Dauphine near Notre Dame provides a neighborhood local ambiance. We were entertained watching the locals play bocci. Service top notch.

    Really enjoyed our evening at Paul. the location in Paris' most secret square is just wonderful. We sat on the terrace and watched several games of boules being played in the evening sunshine. Our servers were very entertaining and attentive. A warm throw was offered as the autumnal weather made it slightly too cool to be eating outside. We enjoyed absolutely perfectly cooked duck, veal and côte de boeuf. The wine list was varied and the value for money was spot on. This was our third visit to this lovely restaurant, and we will return!

    We sat outside in the back, which was lovely. We had fish with fennel, and it was so good that we mopped up every last bit of the sauce with our bread. Crème brûlée was also delicious. This was my second visit, and I would go back!

    Sadly, tonight’s meal was memorable for all the wrong things. We had returns here five years after having had an excellent meal with my father who is sadly no longer with us. Service was supremely slow - and when we did get the main course a full hour after the appetiser, we were told the delay was due to a mistake - that’s why you have waiters - to make sure such “mistakes” don’t happen. And yes, I didn’t wait an hour before asking where the meal was. Food was average at best with the pate somewhat bland and the fries super greasy Drinks were okay. Skipped dessert - but still managed to run up a bill of €134 with just one beer and three bottled lemonades. Manager/owner should have come out and apologised - but maybe that’s not the French way. Won’t be back on our next trip to Paris.

    We were at Paul 2 weeks ago and the food, service and atmosphere were brilliant. Yesterday, however, they were just off: service was distant, order taken incorrectly in several aspects, one appetiser came by itself, we had to ask for the second, then one main course came by itself and we had to wait and then the other came incorrectly. We asked to sit inside because it was starting to rain and there was a dust storm from the place - we were told that this was very difficult as they were completely full indoors and outside. They did change us, and the restaurant was only 40% full inside during our meal. Also very strangely, a family of 9 had reserved a table for a birthday - but the restaurant had put them at 2 different tables and said it was impossible to change - it would have been very easy just to turn one of the tables but the hostess made no effort to solve this problem which was the restaurants fault. Very strange evening overall.

    Fantastic food, lovely atmosphere, reasonably priced - including the wine! A little disappointed out waiter could not tell us anything about the wines or suggest a pairing. Otherwise service and everything was great. Worth it just to enjoy sitting a bit in Place Dauphine
