    Snacking at the bar.

    A visit to Paris without stopping at Willi's is like coming to the city of lights and not walking. I've been coming here over the years (collecting posters) and tasting my way around French wines. It's a must visit and always recommend it. This visit was just for wine (Bandol Roses) and cheese of course.

    Willi's Wine Bar gets everything right about Paris. We had a fantastic evening. The place is casual chic -Parisian style of course. The menu has elegant, gourmet selections and great wine. They allow you to try the wine before pouring a glass.The pollack dish was one of the better meals I had in Paris with perfectly roasted fennel and creamed Lima beans. Again almost all of the staff spoke English. Overall -if you are ever lucky to be in Paris , please consider making Willi's Wine Bar a stop in your dining itinerary.

    Willi's Wine Bar gets everything right. The setting, the wine, the food, the service...we had a fantastic evening. They are the epitome of fresh, tasty French dining in a casual setting (and they easily accommodate English speaking guests). The menu changes daily. We had a melon and spec salad, followed by chicken with vegetables and herb sauce, topped off with a chocolate terrine for dessert. Delicious every step of the way. I identified a Rhone wine that I like and asked the server for a recommendation among the available vintages. He was helpful and simultaneously mindful of cost. We had a wonderful time in this friendly and comfortable bistro. I want to plan a return visit to Paris just to come back here.

    Willi's Wine Bar was recommended to me by my current employer. She said it was not to be missed and so my friends and I made a reservation for New Year's Eve. We did make sure we had a reservation prior to going in. This was for December 31st, 2021. They checked our Heath Passes and we were seated quickly. The menu was a prix fixe menu. We had a tatin of carrots, red onions, and hazelnuts. Then I had crab meat ravioli in a crab bisque. My entree was Normandy scallops with pumpkin hummus. For dessert, I had Willi's traditional chocolate mousse. The entire meal was fantastic! The ravioli was sensational as was the crab bisque. The pumpkin hummus was divine! The hazelnuts in the dishes were such a lovely addition. That is not something seen in many American dishes so I really enjoyed getting to have them as a savory element. Willi's Wine Bar was such a delight. If you're able to stop in, grab a glass of wine and enjoy. It is such a unique place. The wait staff was so kind, even humoring me and speaking French to a very beginner French speaker. The artwork on the walls is so fun to look at and they even gave us postcard-sized copies of some of the artwork.

    Our friends had gotten engaged here 20 years ago and insisted we experience Willi's. We're glad we took their advice because this wine bar is great. The Staff are excellent. The atmosphere and vibe is cool and relaxing. The walls are covered with their custom prints (numbered and signed by artist commissioned) readily available for sale. We tried 4 different wines two white and two red. They even had us try the wine before pouring the glass to make sure we liked it. For the meal we split a charcuterie, then for the main we had herb roasted chicken and slow cooked lamb. In a word Succulent. Cannot recommend Willi's more.

    Cool spot! Shared a nice bottle of rosé with a few friends, and I also had some amazing apricot dessert that I unfortunately can't remember the exact name of. Friendly staff and great ambience.

    This was a perfect lunch, and Rose was a wonderful and extremely sweet server. Three of us shared a beautiful bottle of Chardonnay and an array of dishes. It couldn't have been better!

    I have mixed feelings about Bistro des Augustins. On the one hand, it provided me some of the most…read morecomforting and delicious food that I enjoyed in Paris. 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.

    So many delicious escargot at au doux raisin that you won't regret going here…read more We ordered escargot, bone marrow, and beef bourguignon. The escargot. Wow. It's their specialty and it sure is special. I've never had escargot with this kind of flavor coming from the snail itself. It's a must have. The bone marrow was good too, nothing too memorable, definitely not like the escargot. The beef bourguignon was so good too. Tender beef and such good flavors. This was the perfect way to end our Paris trip.

    We came here on our first day in Paris after seeing Pantheon. It's a small cozy restaurant with…read moreonly a few tables. We ordered a few dishes to share: - escargot was so flavourful, it blew our minds. This was the best snails I have ever hard. - foie gras - delicious!! - bone marrow - unlike other places, they didn't add a lot of sauces and etc. onto the bone marrow, but the taste was so fresh and delicious that you didn't even need anything else. Amazing. - beef stew - this was very tasty but we couldn't finish it so we take it to go. - sausage - probably my least favourite but still very favourful. Our server Olya was amazing, always checking up on us and making sure we were happy! She gave us a lot of recommendations which turned out to be amazing. She speaks French, English and Russian, which is a great asset which made communication and ordering very easy. Overall, this restaurant is a must visit for anyone who is looking for delicious homey meal.

    - Visited on the first Saturday of April for dinner; had a 6:30pm reservation…read more- Very popular spot on the edge of Jardin du Luxembourg; a few outdoor tables are tightly packed for people-watching, and the interior is quite small with closely spaced seating across two levels - Service was friendly overall; our waitress was especially warm and accommodating with the kids - Food was solid but a bit mixed: escargot was flavorful as expected; the croque-madame was generously sized and nicely toasted; the duck breast was cooked well and paired with a tasty orange honey sauce, though it was on the fattier side; the aligot was interesting--cheesy mashed potatoes with a notably stretchy, gummy texture; the chicken supreme with preserved lemon was simple but nicely elevated by the sauce; green beans were well seasoned but softer than the described "crispy" texture

    THE FOOD ----------------…read more+ Six Snails from Burgundy - Very good! Unlike in the States, these escargot (as most in Paris) were served in their ACTUAL snail shells and they were addictively deeeelicious - like I can have 95 of them addictive! = Duck Breast - Duck was tender, but I thought it was just OK. The orange honey sauce made for a good dipper sauce, but without it, the duck was relatively ordinary. The aligot was quite cheesy and tasty though. = Chicken Supreme - Solid chicken and well cooked. String Beans were excellent! Like the Duck Breast, presentation was simple and elegant. However, for me personally, the chicken was OK. Nothing wow'd me on this dish. + Toasted Ham and Cheese Sandwich and Fried Egg, Salad - Good for what it was - a ham and cheese sammie with a fried egg. Definitely fancier than your stateside version - it wins that hands down. Bread was toasted and buttered very well, which to me, was the key to this sammie. THE SERVICE ------------------ + Alllll of the food came out very fast after we ordered. + All of the employees were super friendly to us, despite us not speaking a lick of French. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------- = Interior and exterior are tigggght. The interior consists of a 2nd level, which has a few tables. = Exterior has outdoor seating for what seems to be customary at most restaurants - people watching while day drinking. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS ------------------------------------- + We had a resy for 6:15 PM on a Saturday evening and were seated immediately, which is always a good thing. + Outdoor seating area was packkked, but there was always an open table or two inside.
