Great atmosphere. I'm glad I stumbled upon this restaurant while in Paris. We had gotten there just in time as it was starting to get packed out. We had no wait and were seated immediately. Service was good and the food was delicious. We had the daily special scallops in cream sauce, french onion soup, and one of the shrimp dishes. read more

Had the opportunity to enjoy my last night in Paris having dinner at this lovely restaurant. We made a reservation and had to call to change it because we were running late and they were very nice about it, and although it was not super busy when we arrived, I can imagine it being a wait for a larger group, maybe not for 2-3 people. The decor inside is very chic and I loved sitting on the red sofas while having dinner, it was super comfy. We tried the escargot, first time for everything, and it was pleasantly delicious. It tasted like it was covered in pesto, olive oil, and garlic, and the texture was similar to oyster or mussels. We also had the shrimp spring roles which very small, but packed a lot of shrimp flavor. For my main dish, I ordered the duck which came in a tomato like sauce and was absolutely delicious. Hands down my best meal in Paris. I also had a side of mashed potatoes which were fresh and delicious. Everyone else at the table loved their meals as well, and the wines were delicious as well, can't remember the names. This place is a 10minute walk to the Eiffel Tower, which was nice. Will be visiting my next time in Paris. read more

We choose this spot because of it's relative proximity to the Effiel Tower, and given that there was a transportation strike at the time, didn't have the convenience of running subways or buses (that weren't jammed full of people). There was no wait on a Saturday night, and we were seated right away (though we were there on the early side, around 5 or 6). I ordered nine oysters as a starter, and those were good. Also my husband's beef stew was so good, I wish I had ordered that instead, because my rating on this review would have been higher. It's unlike the American version - it's slowly cooked beef (fall of the bone tender) nestled in beef broth with potato and carrots, oh oh and marrow too! Instead, I ordered the beef tartare and was not a fan. It was oddly sweet and unlike any tartare I've had before. The fries that came with it though? Spectacular. Try and stick to their daily special dishes, and do not skip the oysters. Service was just attentive enough too! read more

Whew, I got to catch up on my Paris reviews! I think I am finally over jet lag and caught up at work that I can start reminiscing about my time spent in the City of Lights... This was our first eating place in Paris. It was close to our hotel and the metro pass we were using. Looked like a nice Parisian café with sidewalk views so we decided to give it a try. Did I mention it was Valentine's Day too? So romantic to be eating in a little café, bold red décor, with a nice view of the hustle and bustle of the city streets close to the Eiffel Tower. It almost felt like we were in a Woody Allen movie...ha. We were promptly seated and attended on. We ordered a couple plates of Steak Frites and Salmon. All of the dishes came out pretty quickly. You get bread at the table which should be a stable at every American place too, love it. My steak was cooked medium rare and boy emphasis on rare. It was delicious non-the-less. The Béarnaise Sauce that was served with it was divine, definitely made from homemade mayonnaise as its base, you could tell by how rich and flavorful it was. The fries were thinly cut and cooked perfectly, crisp on the outside while still tender on the inside. My dad said his salmon was some of the best salmon he had ever had. Flakey, moist, and not too fishy. The best place I thought about this café though was the people watching. Whether outside on the busy street or inside and watching all of the tiny cups of espresso and pastries go out to individuals, it was all very relaxing. Nice little first stop in Paris. read more

Extremely slow service. Waiters do not write down orders and mess it up. Ordered over easy eggs and got sunny side up. We were charged extra for things we did not order as well. To top it off. The cleaning lady was vacuuming around our table and stirring up dust. We asked them to hold off until we left, but they refused. Avoid at all costs. read more

This place was absolutely amazing and blew my expectations away. Theyre open extremely late and have an excellent dessert menu (aka very good after a long day and you just want to relax with reasonably priced food). The chicken was really good (slightly dry) and the mashed potatoes were the best mashed potatoes Ive ever had. My mom got the penne pasta and the sauce was so ridiculously delicious. We ordered the chocolate mousse for dinner which I was hesitant about but it was amazing, perfect for when youre full but wanna keep eating. So cozy and excellent service. (And great for groups!) read more

3 stars for the food, 4.5 stars for the service. I had the onion soup and quiche Lorraine - average tasting. However, I really liked the service. The food came quickly and the prices were commensurate with this touristy area of town. My server was really cool and wanted to practice his English. What's funny is that I wanted to practice my broken French. He ended up rolling with it and speaking French with me, and at the end he was like "I want to practice my English but you're my boss!" read more

Overpriced. Tasteless. Scream that you don't want water but tap water. Not worth it. Tourists trap.

Piège à cons. I am French and love food. I went to this restaurant for lunch with my 2 teens. Nothing to complain about the service. However... The steak (entrecôte) was raw and tasteless - we had to return it to cook it just to medium rare but the quality was just not there. The accompanying yellowish sauce was hard and inedible. The waiter thought we were tourists and brought Evian water at 7 euros instead of tap water. This place is expensive and not worth it. Avoid, avoid, avoid. DO NOT GO. There are plenty of other options around there. read more

Food was excellI would totally recommend this place if you're around the Eiffel Tower. Perfect location and the place overall is very nice.

This is such a great spot to dip in, relax with a glass of wine and people watch. Lovely atmosphere with Plush red velvet furniture and a super corner location near a Metro stop. The second level has large windows on all sides that overlook the bustling streets. The food is wonderfully fresh and creatively prepared. Don't forget to finish your meal with their amazing cafe gourmand, which is an espresso served with an assortment of mini treats like creme brûlée, chocolate cake ...etc. This restaurant is right around the corner from the Eiffel Tower, so if you find yourself in the neighborhood, don't waste your time in the touristy cafes or brasseries that are close by and just come here. The waiters and waitresses are efficient and super charming and speak English. Get the onion soup and a creme bruele'..... It will make you forget how tired your feet are... :-) read more

I've been here both for a late night drink and an afternoon lunch with friends. It's priced moderate to high, but to be expected given that you're right by the Eiffel Tower. Great people watching besides. read more

The location of restaurant just great, right next to the metro station, it's surly easy to find. And it really close to the landmark of Paris, Eiffel Tower. For the people who want to visit the tower or just finished, it's quite a nice choice. The restaurant is quite big as well, it got a really nice atmosphere. It did give me a feeling that I am in paris, which I was. Let's talk about the food. I order a dish of rumpsteak, i ordered it well done, but i got maybe 70 - 80 % done. Well, I don't really mind anyway, at the end is about the taste. The steak tasted quite nice, just feel like it could more, the french fries which came with the order didn't convince me at all. It tasted so light, luckily got some salt right to me. I already tasted serval places, it got similar problem with the fires. Maybe that just how the really French fires like. My coffee was alright. I saw some cool dishes on the menu, probably wil give it a try next time when I am around. The price of this place is reasonable enough. And the service was quite nice as well. If they didn't respond you at first, it just mean they have other costumers to sever first, just stay calm and wait, they will get back to you a moment later. read more

My parents and I found La Terrasse du 7eme just a few a blocks away from our hotel when we were sleep-deprived, hungry and crazed from our 10+ hour flight into Paris. We were drawn in by the large number of patrons dining here even at 3 PM. Right off the bat, the staff greeted us in English which placated my irrational fear about not being able to communicate w/ anyone which was lovely. We were given complimentary bread which was delicious, and started our first meal in Paris with of course, escargot. I definitely had my reservations but it was absolutely divine and we vowed that we need to order escargot every time we find ourselves in a brasserie during our stay. I ordered the salmon which came with some hollandaise sauce and rice which was decent but not mind-blowing (I come from the land of salmon, after all), my dad had the beef tartare which was great and my mom had the steak which was very disappointing. I'm not sure what they do to steaks here but it was very bland and fatty. All in all I'd say this place has a great space and a relaxed ambiance, but the food is very hit-or-miss and I think you could find better options on Avenue Bosquet. read more

We ate here twice while staying in Paris- once for breakfast and one for dinner because we had such a crappy one down the street (read below review). This is one of the nicer cafes, no doubt because of its tourist-friendly location, but their chairs inside were red, super plush, and super comfortable. I was sold! The waiters were nice guys and English-friendly. Great location for people watching too Their croque monsier was still the best I had in Paris, and croque monsier is one of my fave french foods. It was simply done, but packed with so much great flavor and the cheese on top was perfectly broiled. Their omelette also was the best omelette my husband had the whole trip, and while it was also simply done with ham and cheese, it was fluffy and light and had good flavor too. When we returned a few nights later for dinner, we were seated on their plushy couches. Score! Their onion soup was really good, but the sauce for their pepper steak was amazing. I couldn't stop using the fries to soak up the sauce. Their dessert was amazing too, homemade pastry and super filled with cream. I know their prices are jacked up, probably because of their easy appeal to tourists, but their food and service doesn't disappoint, and we had great experiences both times we were there. read more

My wife ordered the French onion soup which is something I generally do not prefer but I must say this one was very good. Had a mild flavor, not too oniony and full of cheese. I had the steak and fries which was decent but I had better. The steak was a bit chewy and not too flavorful even after adding the parsley butter. My wife ordered the chicken and potatoes which I think was better than the steak. The service was excellent. The waiter suggested a perfect bottle of red wine with our dinner. For dessert had the creme brûlée which was also very good. Overall, a very nice dinner and experience. read more

Luv! Excellent people watching. Perfect location. Solid bistro food. Nice service & most servers speak English. Menu is easy to navigate. The avocado salad was literally a whole avocado halved w Dijon vinegarette, decent onion soup but there's much better in Paris, good escargot, & great bread, solid coffee, and good wine list. It's really a no brainier. If you are staying in this neighborhood you will make this your home away from home between tourist boot camp. It's the perfect Pariasian respite. read more

The escargot was very good. The French onion soup was excellent. The summer plate special with rabbity, green beans, salmon tartar, and mozzarella with fresh tomato was only good. Many other places I would go before coming back. read more

i pretty much love most cafes or brasserie in paris. I love i can sit outside and people watch while enjoying a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. we were on our wait to Les Cocottes but we still have time till it opens, so we stopped at the first restaurant we see and it was: La Terrasse for some snacks. I ordered a french onion soup and a cup of cappuccino. The french onion soup was really good! the soup was flavorful, lots of onions in the soup. There were two small baguettes loaded with cheese on top - sooo much cheesy gooey goodness! they provided complimentary tap water. i kinda wish i stayed here for dinner. Perhaps next time. read more

I've been in France for 10 days and this is one of my favorite stops so far. Maybe it seemed especially great because I was terribly jetlagged at 11 am and really wanted eggs. I had the most wonderful breakfast and watched the world walk by. I had originally come up from Gare Montparnasse because of the Yelp reviews for Kozy. I walked in the door, took one look, and left. It was full of Brits and was obviously a muffin shop. Nothing against either, but I didn't come to Paris for either of those things. I wanted a full and hearty breakfast and I wanted to see and be around the French. Just a few steps away I found La Terrasse. I ordered coffee, eggs and toast, bacon, a croissant, a baguette-like bread with butter and orange juice. Everything was warm, tasty, and satisfying. The croissant and baguette-like thing were especially good with the jam and butter. My waiter was friendly and helpful. I heard that "Bonjour monsignor. Parlez vous Anglais?" goes a long ways. Turns out, it really does. read more

La Terrasse du 7eme - Delicious breakfast and good people watching - Brasseries Near Me - Paris, 75

From the start.... disappointing. I ordered my meal and then the waiter walked away without taking my husbands order!! When we finally got his attention to give him his order he was upset, like we were bothering him...guess what pal?!? It's your job!! Then my meal arrived but his did not. We spoke to 2 different managers and we still waited. When he brought my husbands soup he threw the spoon at him as if it were a huge imposition to serve us. Again.... it's your job!! I get the frosty approach of the French server, but being in the industry, I would fire anyone who treated a guest of mine like we were treated. Millions of other places to dine in this city. Don't waste your time or aggravation on this place. read more

I went here with a friend while hanging out in the Rue Cler area. I'd actually give this 3.5 stars, but I don't really want to give it 4. :x I got the Salade Parisienne (11€) because I haven't had a salad here for a while, but it was disappointingly small compared to all the other Salade Parisiennes that I've seen. There was also a mustard dressing that I didn't like all that much. However, it was okay as far as a meal went; I was full by the end of it. My friend got the Magret de Canard (17€). There were three medium-sized slabs of duck breast and some well-cooked vegetables on the side. I had a piece of the duck and it was really good. I would've been full on this, but my friend (who's a boy) was not. However, he also thought it was really good. The meat was nice and tender and very savory. :) We couldn't choose between the crême brûlée and the moelleux au chocolat, so we got the Café Gourmand (7.5€), which comes with those two, plus "une brochette de fraises." It was kind of a joke because the coffee came with three very tiny desserts. The two small strawberry pieces were on a toothpick. The crême brûlée and the moelleux au chocolat were both disappointingly cold, but still tasted alright. La Terasse is definitely not a bad place to go, but I think I would turn the corner to go to Café du Marché. read more

With all of our luggage, my wife and I were searching for a place to grab breakfast and stumbled upon this restaurant. They had plenty of outdoor seating, and space for us to relax and have breakfast. We both had two fried eggs, with bacon and toast. It was nothing crazy, but did the job and was fairly good. The server also spoke English which was very helpful for us. read more

We had the cockiest, sassiest, boldest waiter who held a 10-second long staring contest with me right before he set down the main course. Later that night my mom accidentally dropped her knife with a huge clatter and whoosh, he instantly appeared with a new one. And after she flagged him down again he asked, "Want to drop another knife?" So funny. But I don't know his name. We came here with the Rick Steves tour and everything was delicious - tuna salad, chicken skewers (fragrant but dry), and chocolate cake/creme brûlée. This was one of those nights you don't leave any food over because you feel bad wasting such delicious fare. I advise you to avoid window seating in winter - it is a bit drafty. I want to drop by for breakfast - maybe it will be interesting as well! read more

The first time we ate here - OMG! The mussels and French onion soup were so amazing - I've never had mussels like that before - the flavoring was so wonderful it made me drunk (although I don't drink)...that's how good it was!!!! Well, we had to go back...I ordered the same thing...the 2nd time, I don't know what happened - the mussels were over-cooked and salty and the same thing with the French onion soup...it was also very salty. I was SO disappointed. Maybe the chef had a bad night? Service is excellent and atmosphere is fun! Both times we were seated fairly quickly (w/out reservations) since this place is on the larger size compared to other eateries in Paris. The dessert is very good. Had I just had the first experience I would rate this place a 5 stars!!! Having the second experience - I would have rated this place 3.5 stars. read more

Just had arrived in Paris and checked this place out right next to my hotel. Short walk to the Eiffel Tower. Ordered the rump steak and duck with some drinks. Food was good.

We went here on a whim since most restaurants in the area are closed on Sundays. We had the croque Monsieur to share, French onion soup, and the rump steak with fries. The onion soup was good but very rich, I found it difficult to finish. The croque Monsieur to share was the size of a normal bread sandwich and was very manageable as a side for three people. The rump steak and fries was alright, not much to write home about though. Service was excellent, our waiter was very friendly and had a great sense of humour. read more

We stumbled upon La Terrasse after wandering around the 7th Arrondissement. We decided to stop and have a drink and rest a bit after a long afternoon of walking. This bistro style restaurant has a large patio in the front with the traditional tables and chairs for relaxing and people watching. We didn't order from the menu so I can't comment on the food. My review is based on the ambiance, location and friendly service that we received. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. I would definitely come back again, and next time for a meal. read more

Solid service and food. A nice Paris cafe experience that worked well following our happy hour on the lawn by the Eiffel Tower.

This was one of my favorite meals in Paris. The service was extremely attentive and our waiter was friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and priced appropriately. I had the penne and my husband had the duck breast. We shared the creme brulee, it was less impressive than our main courses. read more

There are so many choices in this area of Paris and this restaurant is easy to get in and out by French standards. Our waiter was prompt, attentive and spoke very good English. Today's special was veal scallopini with spaghetti. It was fried nicely but was rather dry. The spaghetti was a thicker pasta and difficult to eat polite without a pasta spoon. I ordered creme brûlée however for dessert as recommended by the waiter and was very pleased. We returned for an evening meal and once again, enjoyed the service. Koko was our waiter and I recommend asking if he is available! He is very attentive and patiently works with American tourists with limited French-speaking skills. read more

If I could do 4.5 I would! The food was good and the service was exceptional! Great spot to people watch and conveniently located near the Eiffel Tower. read more

I love how French onion soup is just called Onion Soup in France, and that's exactly why I ordered it, never disappointing, its as good, no wait, BETTER than in the 'States'. How can one describe sitting on a fancy couch/loveseat and eating dinner, FORMIDABLE, SUPER! as the french would say it. We were gonna walk by this place and find another place for dinner when the nice Garcon called us in and asked us to have a seat inside and order their special. Two of our table got the special which was veal in a wine sauce and rice, they said it was the best meal of the trip. I went to my go to French meal and got the Croque Madame, maybe it's not all that fancy but I love that thing and it did not disappoint. Add in a few bottles of wine and we were off to a good first night in Paris. read more

Take a seat outside and the time to watch the people and traffic of Paris go by. This was our go-to place during our week in Paris where we ate several meals and had a many night caps. The staff was friendly, and remembered us after the first visit. Try the mussels - they're superb and you get an enormous pot with enough to share. The onion soup was the best I've ever had. They have several good local cheeses, and the deserts are so rich they're made to be shared. Their menu is deeper than most brasseries in the area, and the plat du jour doesn't disappoint. The atmosphere is trendy and lively. The patrons are a mixture of locals and tourists. It sits on a busy, busy corner very close to the Eiffel Tower. Sit outside and watch well dressed Parisians heading home with a bag of fresh groceries for dinner in one hand, a briefcase case in the other. Is it cheap? No. But, it's reasonable for one of the most expensive cities in the world. If you want cheap or fast go to one of the many sandwich shops in the area and take a picnic to the Eiffel Tower (the park is open until midnight). This is the place to go If you want to soak up the city, enjoy some good food and linger over a digestif. For those who complain that the service is too slow: You're in Paris. That's they way they do it there. It's simply uncivilized to rush through a meal. read more

La terrasse was a 3 minute walk away from our hotel during our stay in Paris. My hubby and I decided to duck in here during the sudden rain storm Paris had last week and I'm glad we did. First of all, the service was FANTASTIC! All of the servers were so helpful and polite. They were so patient with us even when we tried to speak in our basic French (the servers were also very good looking lol). Anywho I had the duck and my husband had the cod fillet. The duck was a little tough and had too much fat... But I still enjoyed it. The hubby enjoyed his cod tremendously. I also had a little treat and ordered the Chocolat viennois chaud avec de la crème chantilly. It tasted like they melted a whole chocolate bar and turned it into a hot drink. Everything was very good. We enjoyed people watching since we had the window seats, as people walked and ran under the Paris rain. read more

So this was my first stop after getting off the plane and checking into the hotel. I have zero experience with French food, but even though I was starving (and usually anything would taste good at that point), I thought the food was pretty bland. The host and waitor were very nice and willing to speak English. read more

The food is merely okay, but the the area is spacious and clean and the ambiance is lively. The portion of rump steak was rather small, and the meat was pretty sinewy. The sea bass fillet was rather thin and dry, and to top it off, still had a few bones. The accompanying green beans were tasteless and limp. The veal special was decent. The nutella crepes were..limp. If you've had a good crepe, you should know what I mean. What is French for "tourist trap"? read more

Didn't order from here because we were ignored. Another Italian family walked out as well.
