We all got French onion soup to begin with - it was good, a bit overloaded on cheese though to my liking. But the liquid itself was tasty. I had duck confit as my main course, and it was delicious. My colleague got steak tartar as his main course. The steak tartar came pre-mixed, and one of the ingredients was ... wait for it... ketchup. Yep, ketchup. I had a taste and it was really, really, really bad. I don't know whose wild idea was that, but this completely ruined the dish. Honestly, if this would be my order, this would be a 3 or maybe even two star review. Good service. No recommendation here. It is Paris. There are other choices.

The restaurant has three levels, which I imagine makes it tough for the servers to keep up with everyone as they ran up and down the stairs. I tried the special: Risotto with shrimp. It was the best risotto I've ever had--so light and delicious. The shrimps were large and cooked perfectly. My wife had the razor clams, which were cold and chewy. She also had Xistorra Tranchee, a type of chistorra, which could have used a bit more to make it more than just sausage on a plate, maybe a bed of lettuce would make it better. Overall, it was a lovely dinner.

I came here with my boyfriend for a Christmas lunch. We ordered a pre-fixe menu with three dishes for 39 EUR. It was absolutely worth it. Mine was the ham appetizer, duck confit, and creme brulee. He ordered escargots, steak in pepper sauce, and creme brulee. The duck confit was so tender and the skin was so crispy. It was super flavourful and one of the best confits I've had. Definitely would love to come back here and eat another confit when i visit Paris again!

I actually didn't know that duck would be such a staple in France. I grew up with Peking duck and…read moreit's always been a childhood favorite so it was interesting to see how duck is prepared in different cultures. La Grange aux Canards specializes in duck and while I couldn't understand most of the menu, I came knowing exactly what I wanted to try. We came pretty early (early for Parisians) and were the first people at the restaurant. I had made a reservation on The Fork through Tripadvisor but I don't think I needed to. Since it was a nice day, sun was just barely going down, we opted to sit outside to enjoy the atmosphere. Our waitress spoke English and was extremely friendly and we just really enjoyed the service. Magret de Canard: This dish looks so beautiful. It was a bit tough to chew but the sweet sauce was so good. We were using the potatoes to wipe the plate clean. Eat this first because once it's cold, it's not as good. I heard from a friend that chewy duck means it's overcooked but the meat seemed rare so I'm not sure if it was supposed to be like that. Duck Confit: We had to look up what confit meant but it's a style of cooking in grease or oil but at lower temperatures, instead of deep drying. The skin was crispy and the meat was moist and tender, almost fall-off-the-bone. Definitely the winner of the night. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

Juvéniles landed on my radar via a recommendation from my brother who was traveling with me. He had…read moreheard good things about it and decided to make it one of his choices for dinner while in Paris. That being said, I booked a table for our penultimate night in the city. Juvéniles serves up creative French fare, and like other restaurants has a large wine selection - so much so that it's marketed as a wine bar in addition to a restaurant. We were seated promptly once we arrived; the space isn't too large and the decor is minimal - though honestly the main focal point is the large wall of wine bottles which is decor enough. I thought the lighting was a bit off - it was too bright, but that's more of a me thing. The menu had a selection of apps and entrees, and additionally they were showcasing some specials. But first, wine - the team gave us some good suggestions and we ended up picking something that went well with our mains. I also thought it was a nice touch that they offered wine by the glass, bottle, or a carafe. We didn't want to commit to a bottle so the carafe was perfect. For my app, I decided to start with the butternut squash and chestnut tart. The squash was cut in layers and piled into a buttery crust that was sliced. The tart was good, and came with a tasty sauce that complemented it well. For my main I went with the pork; this was sliced and paired with potatoes and mandarin oranges of all things. It sounded odd, but honestly it worked - the pork was tender and the sweetness of of the oranges paired well with it. Additionally, the dish came with a flavorful sauce and thin slices of cheese that were also good complements. For dessert, we decided to get the rice pudding with salted caramel. This was excellent - the rice pudding was flavorful and the salted caramel was nice and thick. The sweet caramel played off the more mild pudding - a great finisher. Service was good - the staff was friendly and food came out at a good pace. Overall, I had a good experience at Juvéniles - the food was inspired and high quality, all served in a comfortable atmosphere. Personally, I would opt to dine elsewhere when I return to Paris just to change it up, but this is a solid spot for a good meal.

Unfortunately, it was too early for the tartare as they only serve that during lunch/dinner hours. So we ordered an onion soup, a dozen snails, and a cheese plate. The onion soup was really good. The cheese was nice and melty and slightly charred in some spots. I shared this with my husband but I probably could have eaten two of these on my own. The snails were great as well. But I feel like 12 is a little too much for two people, but 6 wouldn't be enough. For the cheese plate, I don't remember what was on it but I remember not liking the harder cheeses and really liking the gorgonzola. I wish we found out about this place sooner so we could have tried a proper meal. If anyone gets a chance to try the beef tartare, let me know!

The roast chicken was a little dry and the roast potatoes a little bland but neither too dry nor too bland to make them really un-enjoyable, just not memorable. The duck confit and potatoes Lyonnaise were both very good. For dessert our daughter had vanilla crème brûlée which was excellent. Everything came out at the proper temperature and timed correctly.
