It's difficult to get good service in Paris. Chez Georges has some of the best service staff in the city. The atmosphere is upscale yet the prices are on par. I don't know why Chez Georges doesn't have a long line of people waiting to get through the door. My wife had the special, (rabbit legs). I had the duck. The rabbit was amazing! The duck was very good. read more

For authentic, traditional French cuisine the place to go is Chez Georges. My husband got the fish and he raved about how it was cooked and the tasty sauce upon it. My choice was the duck. Being from the US, I'm not used to the way it's prepared in France. For me it was undercooked, very raw in my opinion but I did want to dine traditionally. The potatoes and gravy were incredibly delicious. So much so I wanted to lick the plate. If we return to Paris, I would order the same but ask to have the duck cooked well, now that I've tried the traditional offering. The atmosphere was very welcoming and the service warm and friendly. read more

Dont go unless you are looking for a punishment. Food is very tired and mediocre at best. Staff is indifferent, have no time for you, makes you feel you are a nuisance to them and seems very board. Reservations are by phone only and required but impossible to make as they never answer the calls. There are so many fabulous better places in Paris why waste precious time here. read more

The food was okay, the service was fine. Cute restaurant, but they do allow pets in the restaurant, so keep that in mind.

Decided to have dinner with friends to close out our Frence journey. We came to George based on recommendation from hotel matre'd. We had an appointment at 7pm. We arrived promptly at 7 and were seated promptly and provide with menu. The ambiance was warm and intimate as it was a small interior, which appears to be typical of the area. Primary reason for coming was for the OSSO BUCCO. We were told by the waiter that this was a daily special and today was unavailable. Note: the Osso Bucco was a Saturday special and today is Saturday. A member of the group asked to speak to the owner, at which time Veronica came to the table. My friend indicated that a primary reason for coming was the Osso Bucco. Her response was quite ambilivant and someone terse. We contemplated leaving to go to another restaurant. However, we chose to stay and make the best of it, and it was absolutely the best choice of the night. Veronica took the reigns and proceeded to treat us as honored kings and queens. The food was absolutely great, coupled with a great presentation. The Lamb was nothing less than superb coupled with green salad followed with sorbet that was to die for.....this was truly a capstone event ...what a way to close out pur trip to France and the city of Paris Veronica....well done ..salute...hope to enjoy your company again on our next journey to France. read more

We had an absolute delightful lunch with great service, relaxed but elegant ambiance and delicious food... we had the beef and the cod and they were perfectly prepared and the mashed potatoes were outstanding ...the strawberry dessert was magnificent... they deserve their Michelin Etoile!! read more

This restaurant is exactly what you would expect from a high end, high quality, high service. Wonderful ambience, French restaurant. The chicken melted in your mouth and was served with pieces of soft sautéed garlic. . The asparagus was perfectly dressed and the potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The service was one of the best ever received. A MUST visit when in Paris. read more

Walked into Chez Georges about 7:30 we had reservations so we were seated immediately. The restaurant was not crowded because the they had just opened for dinner about 30 min before we arrived. There were not a lot of people so the atmosphere was really laid back and casual. We chose a table that was inside of the restaurant but was next to an open door so you could see outside and people watch. The waiter came over and informed us that there were no special tonight. Now the main reason we came to the restaurant was to have the special which was suppose to be Osso Buco (veal in a white wine tomato sauce). We were highly disappointed so we asked to speak to the manager to ask why the special was on the menu but was not offered. The manager was Veronica who by the way was not very friendly, she informed us that they were out of the special. I was thinking to myself you just opened 30 minutes ago and the restaurant was not crowded so how are you out of the special already. I guess she saw the puzzled look on my face because then she said that there was no special. We started to leave however we ended up staying because of the time. I was not dissappointed that we stayed because the food was amazing. I ordered the cod with bearnais butter, mashed potatoes and green beans. The cod was amazing perfectly seasoned, cooked and tasted amazing and the bearnais butter took it over the top. The mashed potates and green beans tasted amazing they were seasoned perfectly and complemented the cod. Of course I had to put the bearnais butter on top of the potatoes and ooh lala (as they say in Paris) lol it was excellent! Veronica actually waited our table and by the end of the night I guess she warmed up to us or we warmed up to her. If you are in Paris do yourself a favor make reservations ahead of time and have dinner. I highly recommend this restaurant and once you taste the food you will taste why. Check this place out! read more

Very negative experience. The person in front seating you is the rudest you'll ever meet. Service is non-existent. Food not good. Overall, fail. read more

AVOID! Worst dining experience in Paris. I wish I could give it negative stars. We decided to try the steak tartare as my husband had never tried it. I've had great tartare and this is not it. It was not prepared table side and it was clearly premade sitting in the back since we received our entire order within about 3 minutes of ordering. It was grisly and when we complained the "manager" argued with us and didn't take it off the bill. We would have just left but we had ordered a bottle of wine. We then watched in horror as the leg of lamb was sitting behind the hostess stand the the "manager" who was also the hostess would go and cut slabs off the leg with no gloves and hand it to a waiter to go back in the kitchen to reheat it then she would ladle sauce that had been sitting out over it again sans gloves. At time the leg of lamb was just sitting on a platter on the table while people walked by (beyond health violation) Plates were chipped which is also a health violation (we both used to own hotels/ restaurants). I wish restaurant nightmares was still airing as this would be a perfect candidate. read more

Chez George is a higher end restaurant with a somewhat expensive price tag and a favorable reputation among the locals. Maybe our expectations were too high, but we were not impressed at all. Don't get me wrong. It was a nice dinner and the food was good and the service was friendly and adequate. But it just failed to impress at this price tag. The filet mignon was cooked perfectly medium (à point) and was quite tender, although it was probably not the best prime cut of filet. The Angus entrecote was also quite good with a rich beefy flavor, although the meat was not quite tender. The French pepper sauce was good, but we've had better. Craving for a nice steak? You're better off going across the street to that steak frites place with the line out the door and around the block. read more

Rude waiter insulted me in front of my family and called me rude. It was not ok. It was obvious that we were all done eating. We had been finished for awhile. I was placing dishes and silver on my plate to help him. I also placed my napkin on top. He proceeded to humiliate me and call me rude. Thank you, kind sir. I'm sorry for trying to assist you and not knowing that placing my napkin was rude. So nice of you to publicly humiliate me. Have a nice day. read more

We love this place. There are 2 Chez Georges in Paris, this is the unknown one out near Porte Maillot, and let's keep it that way. (sorta) We luncheoned here in May 2017, loved it so much we had to go back this trip. Hard to call this anything but a fine dining restaurant. We split an heirloom tomato salad, they were all there in their many colors, and each serving had to be the regular portion, so many slices. My wife had the duck Parmentier, absolutely perfect, not light, but great potatoes and duck. I had (hold it) veal kidneys, they were small and tender and perfectly cooked in a sauce I wanted to drink. Just delicios. Dessert - fig tart with Chantilly. Nice. Will go back every time. Service was spot on (do not show up at 2:45 and say you want to just drink some wine, this is a restaurant). read more

Chez Georges - Our starter, heirloom tomatoes with comte - French Near Me - Paris, 75

Chez Georges is a chic little bistro in the 17ème on the corner near Metro Porte Maillot and Palais de Congres. It's not where I had planned on dining but it looked 'friendly enough' for an American girl dining alone at the 'off' hour for dinner. Having lived in the 16eme for two years , I have my favorite chic places to eat and know that the French can be , well, 'French'. To an American not used to that 'demeanor', if you will, that can be intimidating. I wanted a French meal with a great people watching point on my night in Paris, this was my option. I was warmly greeted by the maître de and asked to be sat on the patio. I went with a Coupe de Champagne for my aperitif because well, I love French champagne. Thankfully the walk to my hotel was near, as I also ordered a house Medoc red for my meal. It's France and even the house wines are divine. I only wanted a steak and pomme frites i was taking my time with the menu, as I often do and had over heard the waiter tell the American diners next to me the specials of the day, which I had not been advised of. So I asked when he asked me if I was ready to order , a little impatiently, the third time. Feeling a little pressure after stating I only wanted a steak and frites , I ordered a Caprese Heirloom Salade to go with the Butcher's Chef's Cut Steak ( like a filet mignon) and pomme frites. I ordered the Green Poivre Sauce on the side. I was given fresh baguette slices and some sort of smoked fish terrine to go with my aperitif; more amazing fresh baguette and that even more amazing French sel de mer beurre arrived. My salade was ample and so good and fresh , I could not finish it. My steak was tender and cooked a little beyond the medium rare I asked for but was still very tasty , as were the HUGE amount of pomme frites. The green poivre sauce was also a nice accompaniment to the beef but not needed. I like to take my time when dining , even when I am traveling alone in a foreign country on business, I am not sure these waiters knew how to handle me, as they kept staring and speaking of my dining experience. I had to chuckle a tad because I can understand French ! I do think I've lost some of my 'French hardness' that I had when I lived here and felt I had 'become French' in many of my demeanor or mannerisms.. or basically the IDGAF attitude, because after awhile, I felt a little insecure just taking my time and taking in the Paris sun setting , my wine and the people passing by. I passed on dessert because again, I had my place I had already grabbed my favorite pastry at. Chez Georges, all in all, is a good bet but it was 79€ for what I had..& that is pricey even for Paris standards in a simple bistro for one person. I had one champagne and one glass of wine ; one starter salad and an entree. You be the judge! If one had the time or energy , the 16eme is still my favorite for dining and for about the same cost with better people watching. This was good; not great ; not bad .. service .. it's Paris. ;) Voilà! read more

Very nice French restaurant. Their specialty seems to be mostly beef. The have a few fish dishes. I tried their fried squid dish and it was ok... Not much flavor. They have few private rooms upstairs for lathers parties which we used one and was pretty cool. read more

It was one of the few places opened on Jan 1st, so keep in mind Paris actually closes for new years day! This place was very cozy and better than the food was the service! Two very pleasant servers took care of us and pretty much made our night! I ordered the cod and my husband ordered the lamb. As far as the cod, it was very tasty, it just felt like the portion was quite small for €32, so if you are hungry and not ordering an appetizer I don't recommend. The lamb was a very healthy portion, I guess we are used to the chops in the US so we were surprised to get sliced lamb on the plate, it did not say chops on the menu though, lol! The rest of the table ordered steaks, which they said it was good but be aware that our medium in the US is medium rare in France. My friend ordered a potato soup and wasn't very impressed with it. My godmother ordered kidneys and according to her it was very good, I wasn't brave enough to try it, lol! The desserts were to die for!!! Be sure to save sone room for them! Overall a pleasant experience! read more

Sadly awful, poor service, the food was not delivered to temperature... all meat rare. We left before dessert and no waiter checked on our meal. read more

We ate here on a recommendation from the hotel, they must get a kickback because the food was overpriced and terrible. All of us got steak, some got skirt steak and some shared the €72 steak for 2 and every one of us had the same complaint, the meat was flavorless and so tough we all gave up and couldn't finish our meals. The sides were equally as bad (string beans, new potatoes and French fries) with the only one of them being edible was the French fries but they were very salty. I would give this place zero stars if I could but take my advice and save yourself the money and find a small bistro to enjoy a good meal, you won't get that here. read more

Looking for an authentic French meal? Do you prefer the privacy of local haunts to the hustle-bustle of trendy, touristy places? Enjoy excellent, timely service? Then get to Chez Georges, my friend. You will not be disappointed. After searching on Yelp for the perfect place to sit down for a meal of steak frittes, we ended up at a very popular (and very crowded) spot with a line out the door and to the street. Not wanting to wait until 11pm to even be seated, we decided to slip into the warm, orangey light spilling from the doorway of Chez George, which just so happens to be across the street. We were immediately greeted by a smiling (smiling! In Paris!) waiter and seated at a perfectly romantic table for two in the beautifully appointed dining room. I'm talking low candlelight, soft music, and the gentle clinking of wineglasses and utlensils to plates. It was perfect. The menu is very French. I mean, you are in Paris, but finding something this authentic and genuine is a little challenging from the standpoint of an American who speaks very little French and knows no locals. Miraculously, I actually understood the menu but our sweet waiter also brought one over en anglais. This being my final night in Paris, I went for it: escargot, steak frittes, creme brulee and plenty (and I mean plenty) of bordeaux to wash it all down with. Everything was absolutely outstanding. The escargots were so fresh and so flavorful, it felt like it was the first time I was having them. They were not heavy-laden with garlic and butter; In fact, they were so fresh I could taste the green of the grass and was so very, very happy. The tenderness of the steak au poivre has me thanking the cow right there at the table -- never have I been so thankful for a piece of meat. Perfectly cooked and generously sized, this don de Dieu has ruined me for other steaks. And the frittes that came with it? Let me just say this: because both my husband and I ordered steak frittes, we were given a platter of frittes, and not one was left by the close of our meal. Not one. The wine list is quite amazing and if you're unsure of what to get, ask your waiter. We went all out and got a gorgeous bottle of St Estephe that we never actually touched -- the waiters would swoop in every so often to top off our glasses in such a subtle way we hardly noticed them. The shared creme brulee was everything it should be, and paired marvelously with a glass Calvados cognac, ending the night on a perfectly sweet note. I will say this: Chez George is not cheap. It was one of the pricier meals we had in Paris, but totally worth it as it was also one of the most memorable. We walked out into the Parisienne night quite happy, quite full, and quite in need of a moonlight walk. Très bon. read more

Great food and service at this traditional French bistro. The waiter gave great recommendations, starting out with the house specialty of petites sardines. I was a bit shocked when such specialty game to the table in an open can, but the dish was surprisingly perfect on the bread it was accompanied with. As a main course, he recommended another house special, the pluma pata negra. This pork dish game in a delicious dark sauce. Finally, for dessert the profiteroles are a must. Three separate scoops of ice cream, sandwiched by puff pastries, under melted chocolate. Need to say anymore? The service was very thorough, helpful, and gave suggestions and directions for things to do in the evening. read more

The best gigot d'agneau in Paris. We have been going there for more than 20 years. Really French, no turists.

We went last night. Unimpressed. Scallops were cold. Bass was undercooked and Luke warm. Locals were here but I wonder if they realized what a poor impression was left on the tourists among them. read more

Chez Georges is an absolutely fantastic restaurant. Everything we had was superb including the service. Sebastian was our waiter and he was fantastic. We started with the escargot which was prepared wonderfully. For the main course, filet of beef and pan fried sole. Both were delicious, but the filet was amazing. I have had some amazing filet in my life, but I honestly think it was the best steak I have ever tried. This was by far the best meal I had in Paris. I highly recommend Chez Georges. read more

Not worth it at all. Very average food but overpriced. Would recommend Le Congres right on the other side instead.

That evening that I went to this restaurant was the pièce de résistance of the most awful food we had in Paris in July 2009. I just saw that the one restaurant we loved, Trattoria Bocconi, is now closed. Back to Chez Georges, for a meal that cost $200 USD, McDonalds would have been far superior, way far superior. I actually did that one night after an awful meal just east of the McDonalds on the Champs Elyses where I got green steak. I read a review about Chez Georges in the NY Times so I was expecting great. The frise salad with lardons of bacon and an egg, had neither. It was frise with Kraft dressing. Then this a--hole of waitor asked me, medium or well done, when I ordered steak frites. I said medium rare and it came well done. I don't know why I didn't rip this jerk a new one but stay away from this restaurant. My wife had good escargot and her duck was Ok, but that's her, she liked anything she didn't have to cook. Certainly, even if everything was right it would have been nothing worth $200, this wasn't worth $5. I wrote a review on Trip Advisor a soon as I got to a computer in 2009. Unless you want to spend $800 for dinner, with wine, in Paris, you might not be happy with the food there. There are some great places in Paris that have great roast chicken, look for that. Stay away from Beef. In one restaurant I had a veal dish with a sauce to die for but the noise the knife made while cutting the veal tells you how tough it was inedible. I can't wait to go back to Paris, I loved the city, but I need to find some better restaurants or lower expectations, eat in McDonalds or get wine, cheese and desserts and then have good meals when I get back to the states for half the price of these awful restaurants.. I don't eat fish, seafood or organs and that makes Paris tough for me. We even went to a large brasserie near the main opera house. I ordered crepe suzettes after we had it in a restaurant/bar in Manhattan and it was glorious. The crepes in Paris were heavy and bitter. This was as disappointing can it get. Thank God for the glorious but fattening breakfast/brunch at the Sofitel. The food in most major American cities is far better than what you get in Paris, for me. If you look for Alain Ducasse, Jean Georges or go to Tallivent, you'll get decent food, maybe, and you'll send 4 times what you'd spend in the states. read more
