They offer selection of pastries and sandwiches, nothing spectacular but they are decently tasty and affordable on a luxury shopping street. The shop has a few seats in the back but a lightly larger dining area on the second floor. Very comfortable and a great place to take a break from shopping/sight seeing. The bar seats on the second floor are great for relaxing while people watching.

Use the complimentary bread to sop up the oils! = French Onion Soup - Ehhh just OK. Tasted like just your average French Onion Soup. + Duck Confit - Duck leg was delicious and tender with lots of gravy. Scalloped potatoes were a great side for it. + Beef Bourguignon - Phennnnomenal. Arrived in a clay pot and the beef was so tender and flavorful. Stewed potatoes and carrots were also in the au jus and flavorful too. Wish I had something (other than the bread) to soak it up! + Lasagna Bolognese - Tried a littttle bit of it and it was solid. Can't say it was much different than other good bolognese dishes I've had, but it was good. THE SERVICE ----------------------- + Seated quickly for our Sunday evening resy. - Food took a litttttle too long to arrive. + Waiter was very friendly. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------------ + Small restaurant, but has quite a few tables inside and noticed that parties without a reservation were still immediately seated. + Was busy for a Sunday evening at 5:30-7 PM, but there was always a open table or 2.

THE FOOD ------------------…read more+ THEEEEEE gold standard for macarons in Paris ... or anywhere for that matter. + Macarons here are a little crisp, a little pillowy softness and a whollllllle bunch of flavor. - It cost a pretty penny (about 3 Euros for 1 piece), but you won't regret it for a second when you bite into one of these addictively delicious treats. THE SERVICE ----------------------- + All class, top notch white glove service - literally - they handle the macarons with much care like it were gold! THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------------ + Located in the heart of the Champs-Élysées on Rue Lincoln, so, YES, it is busy like rush hour outside ... and inside. + There are 2 sides to this massive flagship location - you can either make a purchase of macarons at their store OR dine/sit down in their tea house. Both have lines to wait on, but making a purchase only takes about 10 minutes on a weekend, while dining in looks like an unimaginable wait! + The store to make a macaron purchase at has 3 tables to sit around to enjoy your purchase of delicious macarons. You MUST catch someone about to leave (like we did) in order to snag a table. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS ------------------------------------------- = Expect waits on a weekend afternoon, especially to sit down in the tea room. If you just make a store purchase, it's only about a 10 minute wait ... and you'll be thanking your legs for that. = It's a tourist destination in itself, so expect LOTS of people taking photos of this location. CONCLUSION ----------------------- = Yes, I'm from the tri-state area and they've had a Laduree in NYC since 2011, but there's alwayyyyys something special about going to one of the originals and this spot is no different.

It was a wonderful lunch, the food memorably delicious, and I had high hopes for L'Entrecôte de Paris when I came across it almost two years later, on an early evening walk along the Champs-Elysées. I was with my mom, my two young sons, and my friend Ava B., who lives in Paris and had treated me to that birthday lunch. We had some inkling that this L'Entrecôte, on a conspicuously touristy block pretty close to Le Relais (only six minutes on foot, I just looked it up) might not be the same as the one we'd so enjoyed. But there was no line and we had to eat, so we decided to walk in. I honestly can't tell, even with time and internet at my disposal, whether this L'Entrecôte is part of the historic family of restaurants that includes Le Relais de l'Entrecôte. That group has its own Wikipedia page and it seems that several branches of the family have struck out on their own, but I can't find this location among them. What is clear is that this restaurant is at best a distant cousin of the one I went to two years ago. It must benefit from the association, as it is quite clearly inferior. The place was cute, at least, even if we were directed to the basement, where no one offered to help us lug our big American stroller. There were mirrors and Frenchy art on the walls, red gingham tablecloths on the tables. The format was the same as at Le Relais de l'Entrecôte. Small menu, very few choices, just the set with salad, steak, and fries. The kids ate dinner rolls and fries and drank water flavored with strawberry syrup. I had a glass of red wine. The salad was okay, out-of-the-bag greens with some pecans and a creamy dressing. The fries were solid, but the steak was pretty bad. It just wasn't good beef, and the house sauce wasn't anything special. Certainly not tasty enough to make up for the meat quality. L'Entrecôte was 100% a tourist trap, and I'm a little ashamed that I fell for it. It wasn't the worst thing to have a quick early dinner with kids, though, without going out of our way. But if you have time to walk and suffer a longer line, I'd recommend getting the real thing on Rue Marbeuf.

The vibe was set with a dope playlist of late 90's/early 2000's hip hop and R&B that instantly had me in a good mood. I tried the Litchi Paradise cocktail, swapped in Hendrick's for the Soho, and it was smooth and refreshing. Also had the Pornstar Martini, which they serve with the prosecco on the side so you can pour it yourself, a nice little touch that made it feel extra fun. For a late-night bite, I went with the French fries, and let me just say... highly recommend! Crispy, golden, exactly what you want to snack on with cocktails. I also recommend the Pasta del MAMA which had Aldredo flavor, but not as heavy on the cream. Cute atmosphere, great drinks, and chill music, definitely worth a stop if you're in the area.

We sat outdoors but you are still in covered area so you don't feel like the crowds passing is on top of you. Service was just strange I'd say. Not terrible but certainly not great. Like they weren't blatantly bad or rude but they didn't seem very interested and was kind of impatient. Like when the waiter came to the table, he didn't greet us or anything, just went straight to "are you ready to order?". But we also didn't get any drink menus, so we weren't ready, and he just walked away when we didn't start ordering fast enough. Drinks: we ordered the Aperol spritz and passion mojito for cocktails. Everyone else just ordered juices and soda. The spritz was okay, the mojito was much better. Food: we ordered steak and fries, mussels, grilled octopus and mashed potatoes. I had the mussels in cream sauce and the grilled octopus with mashed potatoes. The mussels were lacking flavor and the cream sauce was very watery. If they made the sauce thicker/creamier and just seasoned it a tad more, this mussels would be amazing! The octopus and mashed potatoes on the other hand...superb! The octopus was grilled and seasoned perfectly, but honestly the mashed potatoes were the star! It was whipped and creamy perfection! So much so, my friend ordered just mashed potatoes for her meal after tasting it.

They kept watch on my table and refilled wine glass as it became low. I ordered the FRENCH ONION SOUP...smply called "Onion Soup" here in France :). It was delicious. It is served au gratin, meaning it is covered in delicious baked cheese. TIP: Onion soup comes with baguettes drowned in the soup. I asked for some extra baguettes for dipping in the broth and covering with melted cheese. Highly recommended! A RED BOURGOGNE WINE is the perfect pairing with the onion soup. The light fruity wine with an acidic character pairs well with the rich cheesy soup. They served it in a stunning petite glass.

Hot and delicious, especially when I add lots of the hot chili sauce. When it's not crowded this is great place to get away from busy Paris streets and enjoy comforting food. I'm fortunate to live in the SFBay Area so this kind of Asian food is comfort food for me. Perfect for getting warm and exciting the taste buds.
