When in Paris one should try a soufflé. Searched the Internet and this restaurant was one of…read moreseveral that made great soufflés. I viewed menus as well as read reviews and of course another deciding factor was to have a superb french dinner. Well Au Petit Marguery rive gauche has these attributes and more! We started with a shared salad Salade de gambas, sucrine croquante, vinaigrette à l'orange (King shrimp salad, crispy sucrine lettuce, orange dressing) . The dressing was light not overpowering and the shrimp very fresh. For the Plat my wife had the Magret de canard du sud ouest sauce miel et balsamique, Fricassée de légumes de saison (South-West duck breast honey and balsamic sauce, Seasonal vegetable fricassee ) The duck was medium rare juicy and tender, the vegetables were cooked perfectly and the sauce was a great compliment. I ordered the Lapin farci à la brousse de brebis et tomates confites Mijotée de côtes de blettes et jus de sarriette (Rabbit stuffed with fresh ewe's cheese and tomato confit Simmered Swiss chard stems and savory sauce). This was a fantastic dish. The stuffing was moist and hinted of cheese again not overpowering and the sauce very good. You know a good Restsurant when the sauces are made from many hours of simmering stock and reducing to a thick Demi glacé. Now for the finale. The grand marnier soufflé came out puffed and golden. The waitress took the bottle of grand marnier and poured it over the soufflés and flambéed them. When the flames went out it was time to indulge. These were light fluffy and so so tasty. The waitress was cordial and hospitality above and beyond! We sat in the solarium this was s great atmosphere. We will be returning when in Paris again next year Not sure what others were saying that this was not a lively place! There were many tables full when we went at 9:45pm. You don't rate a restaurant on how lively/busy they are. You rate on food, atmosphere, service ...etc

The waitress was extremely helpful with providing an overview of the menu items and wines. I ordered mussel croquettes that were perfectly flaky on the inside and crispy on the outside with great seasoning. Inside there were hazelnuts, herbs and crushed tomatoes. This was followed by a rare tuna entree that had been cooked with a cherry tomato sauce with cucumber and basil oil. The tuna was cooked perfectly and the resultant broth ... I consumed every last spoonful and considered requesting a straw. Unfortunately I was too full for dessert but the fresh mirabelle plums looked delicious. I received one to sample as a courtesy. Prices are quite appropriate and an overall excellent value for the quality. Also the service and ambience couldn't be beat which made it for a special final meal in Paris. 10/10 recommended.

Loves: + Not to be dramatic but the duck (25e) is heavenly and the best I ever had in my life. As a solo diner I was sad I could not eat the cote de veau (you need two people), but that duck sure made up for it. + Lovely attention to timing. I was the only solo diner in the place and yet the timing of my dishes with those of everyone else was impeccable. + Kind waiter who spoke English which helped me greatly. + Menu changes at least weekly and items served for lunch are different than dinner. This place is a gem and I highly recommend it! They don't take reservations bc it's cozy inside (maybe 26 person capacity), so I recommend coming earlier when they open at 7:30pm vs later. Enjoy!!! :)

The evening started with an error on my end. I guided our party to the wrong restaurant. A fair…read morewarning to anyone planning to dine at Le Cornichon... There are two Le Cornichons in Paris. Make sure you visit the location on 34 Gassendi Street. When I realized the mistake I phoned the correct restaurant and apologized letting them know we'd be 30 minutes late and to request they hold our table. They obliged and stated that it's a common occurrence. When we arrived at the restaurant the first person to welcome us was Chef Sebastien Dagoneau. Chef and his team offer "neo-bistro" French cuisine around products grown with respect for the seasons and the environment, always looking for creativity and beautiful taste sensations. The closest comparison I can think of is the American "farm to table". Restaurants in the USA that focus on local grown and raised within season ingredients. The inside of the restaurant is quite tight. Be prepared to be close to your neighbors, scoot past other guests to get to your table. But once seated you feel like you are in a little community of fellow diners. After reviewing the menu for wine we ordered a bottle of Laurent-Perrier Cuvee Rose. It was refreshing and the perfect wine to toast a dinner in Paris. The kitchen sent over a delightful offering of a chickpea flat bread, Socca, cut into strips. It was a fantastic companion to the bright champagne. For my first dish I ordered the Foie Gras with Granny Smith apples and a hibiscus, apple, and ginger compote. The creamy and fatty foie gras paired with the champagne bubbles. I strongly believe that Foie Gras and champagne are a must while in Paris. For the main dish my wife and I decided to share the Rib of Beef and potatoes for two people. Shortly after ordering Chef Sebastien reappeared with the Rib of Beef. It was the largest steak I've ever seen. Definitely big enough for more than two people. With some serious beef coming it was time to order a bottle of red wine. Looking through the list something caught my eye. Domaine Trapet - Gevrey-Cfhambertin 2018 - Red Wine. Chef Sebastien took my request and smiled ear to ear. He decanted the wine, smelled the dark red juice, looked at me with a smile and nodded. It was going to be the perfect companion to the beef. The wine punched raspberry, cherry, leather, oak, vanilla. Everything I look for in a fantastic French red. Compelled to have others experience this amazing wine I offered some to the table next to us. A group of locals. Chef Sebastien saw me do so and smile then proceeded to tell the table it was a very nice wine. The table shared the glass and we struck up a conversation about Paris, America, wine and food. A fun exchange over fantastic food and wine. Something we all can agree on. The rib of beef arrived. It was so big it barely fit on the serving tray. The cook of the steak leaned a little closer to rare than medium. But the quality and taste of the steak was of such quality it didn't matter. The roasted potato accompanying the steak were perfectly roasted and rich and creamy. For desert we ordered one of each for the table. The Exotic Fruits - fresh fruit on a creamy bed of rice pudding, meringue shards and mango sorbet. Crispy Cabbage - choux pastry filled with bourbon vanilla cream and a caramel sauce. St Domingo Chocolate - souffle with chocolate and ginger ganache and diced roasted pear. One of the things that we admire about French deserts, besides being the upper echelon of pastry skills, is the lower level of sugar and sweetness. Often in America deserts can be overly sweet. We found the deserts at Le Cornichon to be just the right amount of sweet. To accompany our deserts Chef Sebastien sent over some fortified wine by Domaine Des Schistes - maury la cerisale. A bold and sweet desert wine with cherry, dark berries and chocolate notes. A lovely way to finish out the evening. The wine had many characteristics of a port but much more approachable. It was a wine you wanted to keep enjoying through nose and sipping while enjoying conversation and taking in the environment of the French bistro. If you find yourself in Paris I highly recommend Chef Sebastiens Le Cornichon. It is by far the best meal I've ever had in Paris. When my wife and I return we will definitely be dining there again.

The owner/chef was very gracious with my poor french, and we were seated promptly on arriving for our reservation. Excellent bread. Excellent price for an all around amazing menu. The food was all spectacular, simple, not overly fancy, but delicious and elegant. Artichoke heart salad, Pintade (guinea fowl), fish, desserts all were impeccable. Service was like it is always in France when it's good, invisible and never showing up until you ask for it. Great spot for lunch for a very fair price. Lunch for 3 for 130 euros with wine and tip included? You can't get food like this for this price anywhere in the US.

They had a crowd of regulars come in so it was good to know locals liked this place too. As is the case with many French restaurants, they close after lunch and reopen at 7pm. FOOD: Loved the hot goat cheese salad (not a salad as Americans usually define it but more of an appetizer on a bed of salad). Also the potatoes and chocolate mousse were incredible. Unfortunately the leg of lamb and steak were under seasoned but it was still a wonderful experience. SERVICE: Exceptional which is why the four star rating. I would definitely recommend coming here if for nothing else the friendly atmosphere and helpful service. COST: Reasonable considering everything. About $35 person for a very nice sized meal. And of course the wonderful service!
