You need to make a reservations…read moreweeks in advance, and it is not a place where you would eat often, or where French people would eat, but it is a great time. The fixed priced menu includes an appetizer, a fondue pot (either cheese or meat) and a baby bottle full of wine. The seatings are all at the same time, and the place gets packed. You actually have to jump over the table to get to your seat . the food is great and the experience is fun. Everything is in English and it is very geared towards the tourists. It is a fun dinner and activity thing to do at least once while visiting Paris.

A gazillion five-star reviews aren't lying to you: this place is a winner. If you want to ensure…read morethat you're able to enjoy, a reservation is absolutely obligatory, and you must confirm it the day before (don't worry, they will email you--just be sure that you check!). The staff is amazing: they are all polyglots. The hostess who welcomed us this evening spoke at least three languages (in the two minutes that I was within earshot): hashtag rockstar, hashtag goals, hashtag color me impressed. They are friendly, helpful, polite, and all about making sure you have a great evening. The menu is set: a welcome drink (they do offer both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options: kir) with a small charcuterie board to whet the appetite, followed by fondue of your choice: cheese with bread or a meat fondue (with four sauces). This comes with the famous biberon de vin--rouge ou blanc, comme vous voulez. After that, it is dessert: take your choice. When I was there, it was île flottante ou mousse au chocolate. J'ai pris l'île flottante et ma mère a pris le mousse au chocolate. They were both delicious. Alas, they didn't survive long enough to be photographed. RIP What really made this evening special for me was the camaraderie of the patrons: I came with my mom, but I met so many nice people. You will be sitting shoulder to shoulder with people who hailed from Italy and another traveler from the U.S. Everyone immediately became friends and shared travel recommendations. It was really quite nice. In case you are wondering, yes, they do sell the biberons, and yes, I did buy one. Absolutely worth it.

On our last evening in Paris we were fortunate to nab an outdoor table at this lovely restaurant…read moredownhill from the famous Sacred Heart Church. I wanted to taste authentic French Onion soup before leaving this beautiful country and we could not have selected a better place. The soup was, of course, the most delicious onion soup I have ever tasted and the duck breast and green beans which followed were equally amazing. My husband ordered the egg and duck confit appetizer which we were initially puzzled as to what to expect but it was DELISH! As was the duck Shepherd's Pie! To top off the wonderful food was the friendly, gracious service through which it was provided. These two gentleman made our final evening the best. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

This place is a gem!…read more We were in Paris for two weeks and this place was so good, we had it twice. Located in Montmartre, this cozy 'cave' sits upon a busy street. As an American, you must get used to the slow pace that most restaurants run here. But, I've taken a sincere liking to slowing down and enjoying my food rather than eating 'on the go.' Order the beef bourguignon. It is amazing. Comes in a steaming pot with buttery mashed potatoes. Also tried the foie gras, escargots, and frog legs. Haven't had a dish that wasn't up to par. This place deserves more attention. A must visit if you're in the area.

Must say that the outdoor seating area is very unassuming / cause of suspicion (zero people around,…read moreno decorations, broken mirror). But given other raving reviews, we sat and ordered the beef bourguignon and salmon steak. The mash potatoes were very good and the beef was tasty, though a bit dry and had a bit much too tough gristle. The salmon was poached and cooked perfectly. If we came again, I'd like to try more of the menu to get a better / fuller experience. Overall, I'd give it a 3.5 - 4.

Not a bad stop for lunch…read more I opted for an appetizer and a main course for €18. I had the French onion soup which was tasty and came out piping hot.

Unfortunately, we had a few issues with our order. We ordered red wine but they brought us white wine instead. We also asked for a beer but it was served at the wrong temperature. To make matters worse, we ordered a half chicken plate but received only a small piece instead of the expected half chicken. The lamb plate we ordered was also disappointing, as it only came with a bone and no meat. The service was quite poor and the food was not up to our standards. So, before making any reservations, make sure to double-check the name of the restaurant and consider other options.
