    Main course

    Great restaurant with a great prices! 3 courses for 23euro. The staff was very friendly and they even made our pizzas into heart shapes to welcome us to Paris! Food and drinks were both delicious. For the amount you pay you get a lot of food. Would definitely recommend!

    Cannot say enough great things about this place. We came in for dinner mainly to escape the rain and were super pleased. Upon arrival with our 14mo old, the hostess immediately got us a high chair, CLEANED it off (never had that happen anywhere!) & even got toys for our kiddo to play with! I normally don't post about such little things but: the chairs were super comfy, bathroom clean (warm water which was rare at most places in Paris), they had rose petals on the table which was adorable...and oh yes - important yelp restaurant review details : the food was great! We shared the entree, main course & dessert meal and chose the minestrone for our son, had the vegetarian pizza (we opted out of the egg plant) and tiramisu. Kiddo loves the soup, we loved the pizza (about 12" and thin crust) and the tiramisu was the best I've ever had, and I've had a lot of tiramisu! Hosts/hostesses were friendly throughout.

    Friendly service! Great food and decent pricing! A local recommended this place to us and it never disappointed! Tried escargot for the first time and it was pretty good. Also got the duck confit also a must try! If you're in the area, this place is a place to go!

    I can't believe this place does not have any more reviews! My friend and I came to souvenir shop on a street down the sacre couer and luckily this place was still open at 10:00 pm on a Monday! The hostess and server greeted and sat us quickly. Gave us perfect amount of time to look at menu and food came out surprisingly quickly too! There are many vegetarian options which is great since I am a vegetarian! But there are plenty of meat options as well for those of you who enjoy that! I ordered the gnocchi al pesto while my friend got the penne al pomodorro. Also the wine is super cheap!! This place is relatively inexpensive. Worth every single euro!! :)

    We celebrated my birthday here. We arrived 15 mins before our reservation time , waiting outside…read morein line for another 15-20 mins. Once we were sat the service worked a bit slow, but everyone was friendly and kind. The ambiance was vibrant. Cool. Not too loud. Not too bright. We ordered the prosciutto appetizer, burrata, focaccia , mamargherita pizza , truffle pasta and the bolognese pasta, tiramisu, and pistachio gelato. Everything was delicious. The focaccia through us off a little but . But it was good.

    We had a big family lunch at Pink Mamma a few weeks ago after a Sunday morning visit to Montmartre…read more I booked the table about a month in advance, and it was easy to do, even for a party of 11. There was no back-and-forth prior to our lunch, we just made the reservation online and showed up. Pink Mamma is part of the Big Mamma family, a popular French Italian restaurant group (Italian restaurants, French group) with locations across Europe. This one occupies four stories in a flatiron-shaped building in Pigalle, the exterior tiled in a bright flamingo pink. Our table was on the top level, a sunny space with a cheerful greenhouse aesthetic, sheer curtains over walls of windows, vines lacing through ceiling beams and chandeliers. We glimpsed the other floors on our way up, and every space seemed to be decorated to the max, including the stairwells. I guessing this place plays well on social media. Our lunch got off to a bumpy start when we were presented with a family style menu and told it was the only option for a party of our size. It came with starters, pizzas, pastas, all good stuff, for €55 per person. This seemed fair, except that the children were also counted, and we'd have to pay €55 each for my six-year-old (who eats nothing), my three-year-old (who eats like a three-year-old), and my niece, a two-year-old in a high chair (who, in fairness, eats as much as some adults). A lot of money, and likely a lot of wasted food. Our server was this Italian woman who showed everything on her face, and we could all tell she was annoyed that we questioned this policy, and annoyed further that she had to go ask management about our kids. It felt a little adversarial, and her attitude persisted when she came back with the regular menus. We ended up ordering a big a la carte spread, and it was plenty of food and much cheaper than €55 a head. Thankfully, our waiter softened up once the meal got going, and she was quite nice to us for most of our visit. This was a relief, especially towards the end, when my six-year-old threw up all over the floor. It was mostly water, and I cleaned it up, but both our server and another employee showed up and offered their help and kindness. Traveling with kids is an adventure, and I did indulge in a cocktail with lunch. I got The Big Pisco and it was delicious, a refreshing, summery drink with Cuatro Gallos Pisco Puro Italia, apricot liqueur, fennel, and lime. My husband got the French Touch, a cool gin drink with Tanqueray, elderflower, raspberry, cucumber, lemon, and R. Gerbaux l'Epicurien champagne. The food was great. We started with a few orders of the melone, prosciutto, and mozzarella appetizer, as well as the insalata Siciliana. The melon, Parma prosciutto, and buffalo were high quality and delicious, drizzled with olive oil and a little black pepper. The salad was fresh, green, and flavorful, with Sicilian broccoli, green beans, rocket, roasted zucchini, and tzatziki. There was also a complimentary basket of good, crusty bread. We shared a bunch of pasta, doubling up on the spaghettoni alla Vittorio, the mezze rigatoni alla Gricia, and the fazzoletti ricotta e spinaci. The spaghettoni was a nice al dente pasta with Datterini tomato sauce and parmesan. The rigatoni was rich and satisfying, with salsa cacio pepe, guanciale, and black pepper. The fazzoletti were fresh pasta filled with lemony ricotta and spinach, tossed in a sage butter sauce, with parmesan on top. We got two kinds of pizza for the table, the Mammargherita and the Spicy Calabrese. I actually booked Pink Mamma in large part because it had pizza, which I thought would be good for the kids a few days into our trip. Too bad my son couldn't enjoy it, because it was quite tasty, if a little on the wet, floppy side. The margherita came with a great San Marzano DOP tomato sauce, plus mozzarella and parmesan. The Spicy Calabrese had the same sauce and mozzarella, along with 'nduja, spicy pork salsiccia, caramelized red onion, and tarragon. This wasn't a perfect experience, but we had a lovely lunch despite the hiccups. I'd recommend Pink Mamma if you're looking for a stylish restaurant near Montmartre.

    Locals suggested we check out the Montmartre neighborhood, and for a change, we decided to try out…read morethe Italian food. Every restaurant setup around this neighborhood felt romantic and had a hole-in-the-wall feel to it. Pebble stone streets elevated that effect. We walked-in around eight when the place was packed and were politely told to return in 30 mins which is when we were promptly seating on our very cozy table. Service was top-notch the minute we walked in this kid-friendly place. Our order was Burrata con parma o verdure, Risotto alle capesante, and Linguine Pollo e Funghi. Food arrived within 30-mins of ordering, and noise levels were on the lower end. Friendly staff, excellent service, and an on-the-house dessert left us very happy and pleased with the overall experience! Highly recommended!

    Excellent small restaurant that's an offshoot of the bigger Ristorante al Caratello right across…read morethe street. It's more intimate, but I think has essentially the same menu (and you can also order pizza from Pizza Caratello next door). We came here twice (because it was so close to our hotel, and we enjoyed it so much the first time). I got the Rigatoni Amatriciana the first time, which was cooked to a perfect al dente and tasted great. The second time, I got a Pizza Napoletana, which was also excellent -- really nice crust. For dessert, I got the Flute Limoncello, which was very refreshing, especially given how warm a day it was. Service was very friendly and attentive. I heard a lot of Italian being spoken by staff, so it seemed pretty legit. I would highly recommend this place over the nearby Le Chinon, in terms of food and service.

    This restaurant is my favorite in all of Paris, with a magical hidden atmosphere and wonderful…read moreowner/chef (from what I can tell he does 100% of the work and has no employees). I stumbled across it for the first time last May on vacation and was blown away. The place is small and cozy - and located down a cute residential street in Montmartre so away from the crowds. I hesitate to write this review as once this is discovered it'll be tough to get a table, but it's heartbreaking to walk a couple blocks away after a delicious meal and see the crowds eating at the many tourist restaurants in Montmartre totally oblivious to the culinary perfection so nearby! Now on to the food - I came here first last May and had Pesto Penne which I have dreamed about ever since then. Back in Paris again in January, I returned to have a squid ink spaghetti creation that I'm not sure can ever be topped. I love Italian food and have spent a lot of time in Italy and it's my go-to food in the U.S., and this restaurant is simply the best. Finally, the owner is incredibly awesome! He comes out to our table with a handwritten menu and explains all the dishes - everything is handmade and perfect! I wish I could give this 1,000 stars, seriously. If you are staying in Montmartre (or anywhere in Paris) you owe it to yourself to come here!!!!

    Absolutely charming spot for best pasta dinner! Quaint, quiet with the feel of "welcome! Bonjour!…read moreBon appetite" Atmosphere very relaxing!
