    AMAZING!!!!!!! Obsessed with this place. We were staying at Sofitel on the same street and had a huge itenary but this restaurant topped everything and more. The food, the service and also the vibes were spectacular. Also Julie was our server and she was the sweetest, and she recommended the best food and wine, love herrr!!! The owner was also super nice and very welcoming. He made sure you leave happy and satisfied. Even if you are not in the area be sure to go because it will make a huge part of your experience. Loved it so much and can't wait to come back!!!!

    Great find! In from New York CIty, we were staying in the Sofitel and this place was next door. Staff is very accommodating and their recommendations were right on! Been back, daily! Love it! Get a window seat so you can people watch!

    I had the best lunch here! The French onion soup and cappuccino were both out of this world. Highly recommend.

    The service was excellent. The servers go above and beyond and ensure to time your plates out perfectly. The food is absolutely divine. I must have dined here four times during my one week stay in Paris. The ambiance is elegant yet casual enough to walk in after a long day of touring the city.

    Was staying at the hotel next door and stumbled upon this place after a long travel day. The service was great and they even have live music on certain nights! My fiancé and I actually ended up dining here three times we loved it so much. The French onion soup was the best I've ever had (can't wait to go back), and the escargot was made to perfection and full of flavor. The steak frites was by far our favorite and it was served with foie gras and a delicious gravy like sauce perfect for dipping your fries into just overall mouthwatering dish.

    Good customer service. Located near place de la Concorde. Good offering for a lunch menu. I had the sea bass tartare for the starter. It was ok. The main entree was the a chicken remoulade with a buttery sauce with small diced potatoes and chestnuts. Chicken was a little dry. Since I wanted to cut down on sweets, I opted to take the cheese plate instead of the chocolate mousse. Big mistake. Two small pieces of the same cheese was not good. I will probably return because I work close by. It is convenient.

    French Fish & Chips.

    In A Nutshell: -Francois Felix is a great place to grab some food after shopping in the nearby luxury stores off of Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honore. -Here you can enjoy a French Rib Eye or some French Fish & Chips. -Both dishes were very, very good. -The place is very small & cozy w/ seating both indoors & outdoors (covered). -The service is very fast & efficient. Overall, due to proximity of the luxury shopping aforementioned, this places is a very good find since it's not very far to fill your starving stomach.

    We stopped here for lunch because it is very close to the US Embassy and we had an appt there later. We were seated on the edge of the interior section just before the outdoor seats and we appreciated that they were using every other table in accordance with the appropriate social distance protocols. We ordered the "Burrata et Tomates Anciennes" which was delicious. We enjoyed our lunch and were soon on our way to our appointment.

    Came here early around 6:30 pm and ordered: Lamb chops with side of green beans: This was well seasoned and juicy, although had quite a bit of fat to it. This wasn't my dish and I only tasted it and thought it was good. Steak tartar (requested it seared) with side of fries: I devoured my steak tartar and this was my first time ever trying it. It was well seasoned and you must like onions to order this as this was it's main flavor. The beef was fresh and I was surprised by how much I loved it. I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to eat here, it's not like it was a gastronomic experience or anything, but it was good and certainly didn't disappoint. Service was friendly and good. Of course like everywhere else in Paris, there was complimentary bread. Remember that if you sit outside, you will be inhaling smoke. It seemed like a nice place for happy hour and drinking with friends and the outside dining area was nice.

    Definitely overpriced when one item was inedible.

    I had such high hopes just to have them dashed by my 2nd piece of shrimp "tempura". First the location and decor are great. It has a retro hip black and red decor and male waiters in kilts. The waiters were both pleasant and attractive. How rare is that? Unfortunately your do not eat only with your eyes. The shrimp tempura came extremely quick, yet it was not hot and the batter was not tempura. It literally arrived within 4 minutes of placing my order and the restaurant was rather busy. The second piece of shrimp tasted rancid. Also like it was recycled. Thinking it a fluke I tried a piece of the third, same rancid taste. I decided not to test the other 4 large shrimp for fear of food poisoning and I had important meeting in the a.m. I can only pray that this was not recycled food. My milkshake was just ok. It was a milk and ice based concoction. I do not believe there was any "ice cream" in the chocolate hazelnut shake. At least my lobster sandwich was tasty. Yes it was a bit overpriced, but definitely eatable. In the end, value always wins over eye candy or decor. I wouldn't eat hear again even if I were starving.

    One of the nicest steak tartars I have ever had, and an incredibly fresh salad!

    We stayed in Paris for 5 days right down the street at the Sofitel Hotel, and we couldn't be more impressed with the service of the wait staff, and also the quality of the food. DELICIOUS, fresh ingredients. Loved the steak tartar, salads, escargots, and the wine selection as well....oh yeah...try the creme brûlée and even the cheesecake. Carema was so friendly with us, When we are back in Paris we will certainly stop into this wonderful Bistro.

We found Le P'tit and when we inquired if they would serve us they said yes if we ordered immediately. It was a few minutes after ten. We ordered at the bar then were seated at our tables. The waitstaff were incredibly nice. They brought whatever we needed including ketchup which, despite being American, we didn't want or need. :) The food was delicious. I had an almost perfect poached egg -just a little too cooked. They had a fair amount of vegetarian options for the person in our party to get a decent meal: eggs, salad and beignets de mozzarella, which I hate to burst your bubble in advance, is a very French and more appealing way to say Mozzarella sticks. They were still good for the record. Perhaps everyone should call them that and aim for that level of taste. Fried just right and a fair amount of cheese. I ordered the duck legs-no complaints there. It was tender and the side of potatoes weren't the top of my list for the evening but there was more than enough of them to share with others. The chocolate fondant was voted best dessert by the table. It won no contest. I'm glad we stopped in for an authentic food experience.

This place was okay, located in the Paris area yet somehow not very accommodating to tourists? So weird. Anyways, my friend and I came in here after a day of traveling and were starving. We wanted something light and decided to try the cheese that everyone talks about, and it was pretty decent. The prices were a bit wild (like everything else in Paris), but I guess that's what we get for stopping into the first place we saw on the street. The menu is pretty eclectic, so don't expect to stop in here with children and be able to get a grilled cheese and fries, it's more of that stuff that people in America eat when they come into some wealth and acquire a new money accent (you know the type).

    A gem! We ended up here after the other restaurant our Airbnb host had recommended was fully booked…read moreand advised us to go here instead. We booked over the phone while on the Bateaux Mouches river tour as we were tired and hungry after a day of sightseeing and we wanted a neighborhood bistro for great unpretentious food where we could stagger back to our beds around the corner after. It was late when we arrived but the bistro was still bustling, our server was super friendly and the food came super fast, which was great as we were ravenous by then! We ordered what was probably one of the cheapest bottles of red wine on the menu but it was so much better than anything we pay twice the price for at home... because hey we're in France, right? Excellent food, friendly people, great service - couldn't ask for more, go there! Side note: walking past next day on way to the metro we were in need of a bathroom and the barman was so nice to let me use theirs even tho I'd just walked in off the street: I made sure after to thank him for the amazing dinner night before so he knew I'd been a customer and most important, the loos were nice and clean (again not the standard in much of Paris!) which was great as you know what they say about clean toilets = a clean kitchen!

Great friendly atmosphere, we event chatted with tables next to us and our waitress always came to check on us to make sure we were well looked after!! Would highly recommend!

A huge dose of fresh cracked pepper was in order, and on the creamy shallot sauce as well. The thick wedge fries were quite good, but I never turn away a fried potato. My friend's brioche toast and my creme brûlée were nice, sweet endings to the meal. Overall it was a good dinner, with very attentive service by the 2 waiters, as we were one of the few patrons on a weeknight.
