    Great food, large portions and the price is worth it ! The staff are friendly and even explained the menu well and the place is clean and organized .

    Catalina de la mer = two kinds of shrimp, mussels, grilled squid, langostino and lobster + seafood soup w/rice, paella like but more broth

    Overall, this place rocks. Ambiance reminds me of small cantina in Spain and even in Mexico,, rustic and not overly done. Please be mindful that many of the waiters and waitresses do NOT speak English, so the menu contains pictures for you to order easily. And with the portions are huge. We ordered the half size Cataplana de la mer so dont be shocked of the food on the platter; 1/2 dozen oysters and a bowl of soup each. Food comes out quick but you'll need some time to finish all that food, luckily we're in Europe (Paris) and 3+ hour dinner are the norm here! I look forward to coming back with friends next time in Paris!

    One of our best meals in Paris. They were easily able to accommodate our party of 16 upstairs. Excellent service by Dina and Ana!! Very personable and accommodating giving great recommendations. The food was delicious and portions were large enough to share. Had the seafood soup before my main meal of steak and shrimp on a skewer and could barely finish it all!! Great ambiance to boot! Highly recommend this place if staying in the area.

    Pedra Alta is our absolute go to seafood restaurant whenever we come back to France! This is a Portuguese restaurant chain, they have several locations inside Paris and in the suburb. Despite being a chain, the seafood is always very fresh and delicious! During our workout days in France we went to their different locations three times! The seafood platters there are incredible and very affordable compared to what you can find at other restaurants. We usually order two large platters to split among 5-6 people even though they suggest 2 people per platter. We tried several times and a platter is definitely enough to feed 3-4 people depending on your appetite. They have many different platters, some with more of raw/cold seafood such as fresh live oysters, clams, and cold cooked lobster, crab and whelks. Some other platters have hot grilled seafood. They are all pretty good and we usually get one platter of the raw/cold seafood and one platter of grilled seafood to share at the table. We also have occasionally ordered their bone-in ribeye steak which is also great, very tender and cooked to perfection. The sea bass offered there is décollais as well! They offer affordable wine and pitchers of sangria to share with the table as well. It's always a great time at Pedra Alta, the only downside of their popularity is that you often have to wait a long time for a table especially if you have a large party, and service can get a bit behind because they are so busy but otherwise this is an excellent choice for seafood lovers!

    The food was delicious

    The food was good. The staff were professional and the drinks were stiff. When I return back to Paris, I will be back.

    This place is everything everyone has already said and so much more. I flew to Paris just to have lunch at this place. There was a woman at the next table who apparently did the same thing. She had an entire table with enough food for 5 but was eating by her damned self and was proud of it. She's my hero. My hubby and I ordered the seafood combo platter for two. It was around €80. There is an option for a larger platter for 3 people for €112. Each platter comes with an amazing seafood risotto and tiny crispy fries and also a plate of large fries. I think the platter for two can probably feed 4. We also ordered some sort of steak that the waitress recommended. It was towards the back of the menu and was €29 for one portion which was also pretty big. We thought the steak was just ok and could probably skip it in the future. We loved the seafood platter. There were several types of shrimps. Skewered and cooked in garlic and butter. Large prawns that were grilled. Lobster. Stone crab legs and some sort of crab egg salad that they served inside the crab shell as well as mussels cooked in garlic. The platter also came with a huge skewer of squid with bell peppers. There must've been at least 8-10 whole baby squids. My favorite was the seafood risotto. It was so seafoody and good. I knock off a star for the overpriced sodas. They were close to €5 a small bottle/can. The sodas and water alone cost us almost €30 which was a bit surprising considering how reasonably priced the seafood platters were. So just be aware of it. All in all, we still think this is an awesome place with huge platters, good service and good food. We will definitely be back the next time we are in town.

    This place is outstanding! Huge sharing portion. Seafood was fresh good. This is a must go for seafood lover. The price is reasonable too.

    This is the most amazing seafood place that I have ever been to. I got a giant platter of lobster, crab, prawns, oysters, clams, mussels. Huge platter of fries for about 42 euro. I couldnt eat it all. My wife got awesome shiskabob of steak and prawns for 22 euro. Not a giant place. We were lucky to get in. Service was slow but i have been told that is the norm in paris.

    The wait for the food was too long, but the food made it up. We got the seafood platter, steak, and fish and was only 200 euros. We could even finish with 13 people in our group.

    this is really good restaurant, there are lots of people. If you don't wanna wait, you should go earlier. The food is really fresh, the price is ok and good for the service.

    It's a very great place for seafood and friends gathering. The price is not high compared with other seafood restaurant. And the dish looks so beautiful.

Everything was superb and our server was swift and smiling throughout the evening. The restaurant itself is small & charming with a simple rustic feel. We felt it was undiscovered but it's likely it was just a slow night on a drizzly evening. I'd certainly recommend a visit!

The richness of the flavor and the texture which is not reminiscent of the traditional roasted duck or foie gras, but rather a much more like a luxurious and indulgent version. We enjoyed our dinner on the outside of the restaurant after about a 20-30 minute wait. The bone marrow had the best flavor I've experienced for the dish. However, it is definitely overshadowed by the rich flavor of the foie gras. This experience was unforgettable, with our view of Parisian streets on a brisk, April night. We even came back on our last night, but didn't realize the hours on Google maps was for the deli. The restaurant closes earlier, before 9:00 PM. This meal got us thinking about Paris in a positive light, and we hope to be able to come back to eat the amazing dishes again!

They had a number of goods to choose from and I ended up buying a few things for souvenirs. As for the actual restaurant, they had a number of delicious sounding items on their menu. Our server was very attentive to us and helped us decide on our dinner orders. Similar to the other restaurants though. After our food was delivered, it was far in between when we were checked on again. And after dessert it took even longer for our server to bring the bill. Overall, the food was a letdown. I do not exaggerate when I say that the frog legs just tasted like slightly flavored water. My friend's ravioli had a fairly decent flavored sauce but the pasta was a bit chewy. My friend's duck breast was pretty tough; I had noticed the table next to us also ordered it and they seemed to have trouble finishing/cutting theirs as well. As for my steak with foie gras, well the steak was once again tough and the foie gras was weirdly stringy. It was soft for the most part but there were parts that were tough and stringy. Maybe that's a section that's generally separated in the preparation process and it was missed? In any case it was disappointing. What wasn't disappointing was dessert though; perfectly sweet and balanced.

On the other hand, it made me realize that my mother was a terrible cook. Bistro des Augustins is a small, cozy venue offering both indoor seating and terrace seating near Pont Neuf. It serves a small number of curated dishes, including a wonderfully traditional Bistro Gratin in a homey ceramic dish served piping hot with a brown crispy cheesy top, herbs, spices and chicken. You can also get it with salmon. My brothers and I only saw my mother use our gas range to light her cigarettes, sanitize needles to remove our splinters, and make s'mores during the summer months when she couldn't muster the energy to take us 'outside camping.' I mean, all she had to do was borrow a cookbook, which I'm sure were readily available from maybe a neighbor or in any local bookstore or the public library. How hard is that? I was the only kid who brought a can of tuna and his own monogrammed can opener to school every day. Every day. And mom convinced me that the tuna holster she got me for my birthday was cool and hip. I was a naive mercury-filled fool, although I did become a very fast runner in junior high school because of the tuna holster. The interior décor of Bistro des Augustins is informal and vintage bistro style - wooden tables, traditional chalkboard menus, and soft lighting - creating a relaxed and comfy ambiance. My eyes have been opened to what's possible. Thank you Bistro des Augustins for expanding my culinary horizons. Five stars.

    THE FOOD ------------------…read more= Fermier - Cheese gratin with chicken was good. Didn't blow me away, but was solid with the creaminess of the sliced potatoes and emmental cheese combined together with mixed vegetables. The cheese was very strong though, so anything else was unfortunately pretty much overpowered by it. Arrived with bread, but it DEFINITELY could use other carb options to sop it all up (e.g., rice???)! = Landais - Cheese gratin with duck. Same comment as the above, except the Landais had egg and goat cheese also mixed in with almost the same ingredients as the Fermier. THE SERVICE ----------------------- + The lone waitress, who also worked the role as greeter, cashier and bartender was friendly. + Food arrived within 10 minutes of ordering. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------------ = Small, tight restaurant. = Not many tables inside - 6 in total. + Located a few blocks away from the more touristy restaurants, towards the East, on a much quieter street. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Nada.
