What a fantastic first dinner in Paris. As a vegetarian, I was genuinely impressed by how extensive the menu was. Instead of just one or two token options, there was a wide selection of thoughtfully prepared vegetarian dishes, making it difficult to choose because everything sounded so good. The staff were welcoming, friendly, and made for a relaxed dining experience. I also really appreciated that they offered a non-alcoholic beer, which isn’t something you find everywhere and made me feel just as included in the meal. The only suggestion I’d make would be to expand the non-alcoholic beverage selection by adding a non-alcoholic red wine and a non-alcoholic white wine. With such an excellent vegetarian menu, I think those would be a perfect complement and would make the experience even better for guests who don’t drink alcohol. I would absolutely return the next time I’m in Paris and highly recommend it to anyone looking for delicious vegetarian French cuisine.

We were a bit apprehensive because we hadn't booked a table, but we got one. The service was extremely nice and helpful and the food was delicious. One of the best foods we ever had in a restaurant. The Seitan is perfect, the sauce cremy everything was wonderful.

Looking for vegan food in Paris we found Le Potaher du Marais and enjoyed our lunch. I ordered the Salade Auvergnate with smoked tofu, fried potatoes, raw vegetables, vegan cheese (think it tasted like a goat cheese) and walnuts. The dressing was light. The salad was very good, and very large. Great for lunch. My partner ordered the Bourguignon de Seitan with rice. He enjoyed the flavors, there was a plate full of the Seitan. Nice lunch with great food and service.

One of the few places you can get classic french dishes that are vegan. The food is good but not fantastic, save for the onion soup with grilled vegan cheese! It's a cozy relaxed place.

Absolutely delicious!!! I got the seitan that was like of like beef tips with gravy and veggies. My friend got the apricot cream brûlée which was great. The service was incredible, and only one woman was taking care of the entire restaurant.

This was probably the best service I have ever experienced in a restaurant ever. The food was good, but I have had better and more creative dishes in other 2 star Michelin restaurants. But: the attention to detail and the plates looked absolutely gorgeous! The ambience was a bit too quiet for me personally, would have loved a bit of quiet music as you could hear the conversations from the neighbouring tables. Thank you for this excellent service experience!!

Our visit to L'Ambroisie was the best meal during our 5-day visit to Paris. The space was quiet, clean, and decorated with chandeliers and geometric wall art in red and white which evoked 80's "art." The food was excellent in flavor, presentation, and creativity. The ala carte menu was a refreshing departure from fixed course menus at many fine dining restaurants in the city. We thoroughly enjoyed eat dish, and every bite was a surprise. I had the lamb in five preparations, and it was great. The bream came in a bowl full of caviar,.which was also excellent. The William pear dessert will haunt me for the rest of my days - the caramel sauce was true perfection. Service was also extraordinary, with the perfect balance of professional and friendly which made us comfortable for the meal. The waiter made a couple of jokes that elevated the dining experience by defusing what otherwise might have been awkward situations. The entire staff was attentive and performed as if choreographed. We will definitely visit L'Ambroisie during our next visit to Paris.

After having been to multiple fine dining restaurants in Paris, L'Ambroisie is probably the best so far. Despite not having the typical tasting menu, the à la carte experience is just as astounding. I decided to skip the Appetizers since none of them appealed to me so instead, I had 2 main courses and a dessert. For the first main, I got the Turbot and I would say it was good if not the best. I've had a spotless version back in London and this didn't quite live up to the mark. Still, the sauce and the ravioli accompanying it elevated the dish to another level. The 2nd main was the Lamb in 5 expressions, and this was probably the best meat dish I've had in a Michelin star setting. It was outstanding in almost every aspect. I'm not a fan of cold foods like the carpaccio, but I'll make an exception this time. The 4 other techniques were simply extraordinary!! Finally for the dessert I had the William Pear and again - Sublime! Both the lamb and the pear courses were pure works of art! The mignardises after the dessert were equally impressive. Truly magical! The only thing I noticed - all other tables had bread and butter served and I wasn't! I hope it's because they forgot. Was going to take off a star here but given the amazingness of the luncheon, I'll let it pass.

This was my second visit to this restaurant and I loved it even more! I’m glad we made the trip back to Paris and could get a reservation here. It’s actually one of my favorite 3 star Michelins out of the others in the city. Main reason is the consistency of the service, food, and ambiance. You can’t go wrong here, the food is just superb, the taste is exactly what you’re looking for when you ask for French fine dining. It also wasn’t too heavy because we chose the seafood options for lunch. The dessert is always so perfect The staff is lovely and so friendly. It’s one of those restaurants you just need to try once in your life. And if you’re going to splurge, do it the right way. This is it.

LOVE LOVE LOVE. We stayed in Saint Paul and came across this restaurant in September 2022. We skipped lunch to dine on the early side (around 7 pm). We loved everything about it. The ambiance is wonderful. Our food was delicious! Started with a glass of wine which had a smooth flavor and was recommended by our server. My aunt had fish for her main and I had the best herbed risotto I have ever had in my life. My husband is a Chef and I have not stopped raving about it to him since. We loved dessert as well (quinelle of homemade gelato). Everything is made in house. Plus, Staff was SO nice which really elevated our experience. I have recommended this restaurant to many friends who were visiting Paris. Can't wait to dine here again later this year.

Very good cuisine in a beautiful 17th century building. The place is both traditional and stylish with backlit bottle shelves. Tasty truffle pizetta, fresh pasta with squid and shells served piping hot and tasty too, generous basil risotto, very good tiramisu. Very wide choice of wines and very good advice for selecting one. Smiling and attentive service. In the end, good value for money and a very good time.

The service was great recommend going early or having reservations, it's not a big place but great character . Clean bathrooms . Hard to make the whole family happy and somehow all the stars aligned!!! , lol

Been here for a solo dinner during summer. Tables outside are placed along a very quiet street with barely any car or people passing, so ideal for dining. Had the pleasure to enjoy a beautiful sunset sky along my dinner. The risotto was great and very interesting both in terms of flavor and presentation. But what really shook me was the dessert! Really recommend (as an Italian myself)

Not the best food in Paris by far, but you are there for a good time. Waiters seemed to like their job, which is a rare find in this city! You can make the vegetarian options vegan with some adjustments, although I was served cream cheese the first time my burger came out. It was quickly redone without. Fries were delicious

If you're like us - Americans living in France - and miss going out to a diner for breakfast, this is a good place to get your fix. The service is great and the menu offers a variety of savory and sweet breakfast options. A good mug of coffee with refills was a welcome surprise.
Tracy Berry - 5 months ago

I’ve walked by many times, I thought it would be meh diner food with kitsch value but food was really good. The bottomless mug of Joe is the best coffee I’ve had in Paris. The atmosphere rather than being fake American turns out to be really lovely and cosmopolitan. Germans, French locals and English people all stop in for a quiet breakfast. All run by an amazing serveur by the name of Hassan whose service is so kind, attentive, unintrusive. Would come back for the coffee and the service alone.
Christine Suwendy - 5 months ago

American Diner food, bottomless coffee, friendly staff. California Eggs Benedict and the staple of pancakes, scrambled eggs and sausage very tasty and hit the spot.
Katja Chen - 3 months ago

Great diner. If you just feel like an American breakfast and a slight break from croissants and pastries this is definitely the place to go. They seated my group of five no problem. Ordering breakfast was easy, even though we asked for quite a few items to be removed from dishes, they did this happily - no sweat. Food arrived quickly and was super yummy. Definitely recommend

Our hotel suggested this place as it is right around the corner. Owners just bought the place at the beginning of the year and are in the process of turning it around. Everything is so freaking good. After eating steak frites for the past week, this place had the best hands down.
Caitlin Pruitt - 7 months ago

Absolutely loved this place! Food was outstanding. Classic French cuisine with daily specials that offered variety. Great wine list. Decadent desserts. And the staff were so friendly and fun! We will for sure be back!

The best French onion soup you will ever taste. Excellent wine, great prices, fabulous service. Be prepared the ceaser salad would feed a family of 5!

Some places you find. Others you come back to. This was the first stop on our Paris holiday. We had been before and wanted to see if it still hit the same. It did. The roast beef came sliced thin, pink in the center, with a small ramekin of remoulade on the side. Pommes sautées, crispy the way only confident cooking produces. The lemon meringue pie after was taller than it looked, the meringue torched dark at the peaks, the curd sharp enough to cut the richness. The interior is what photos don't capture. Every wall layered with posters and theatre bills. Mismatched chairs, a marble tabletop painted like a child's art project. Staff treated us like regulars. The menu changes regularly. Check the blackboard. Go for the citronnade. Bring someone who remembers what home cooking tastes like.

Have tried several of their tarts and they have never dissapoint. The tarte tartin is a must! If you are here during summer, you also need to try their rhubarb tart. The tarte citron is also amazing but the meringue can be a little bit too much.
Syan - 2 months ago

Hands down the best lemon meringue pie. A perfect spot for brunch or just stopping in for coffee or tea and a sweet treat. Cozy, charming, and exactly the kind of place you want to linger a little longer in Paris.
Stephanie Marlin - 8 months ago

We came specifically for the famous homemade cakes, namely tarte au citron meringuée you can see in the picture/video. Note that if you do not eat lunch there, cakes (goûter) are only served after 3 PM so if the restaurant is full, they won’t let you in until then. We came in advance at 2 PM and waited in a queue for about 40 minutes until the waiter let us enter out of pity as a small table became free. The cakes are nice, though a bit overpriced (€9.50 per slice). That said, considering how famous the place is (when we were leaving after 3 PM, there were at least 30 people waiting outside in the queue), the prices feel understandable and ultimately deserved. The service was somewhat chaotic, likely due to how consistently crowded the place is, but overall we enjoyed the visit and even though I find it overrated, would recommend stopping by at least once for the experience.

Beautiful place to have rest in the morning. We took cherry pie and it was fresh and tasty. The owner OR waiter was very polite and gentle. Definitely suggesting this place;)

One of the best meals I’ve had in Paris! The seafood was extremely fresh, and the oysters were outstanding — a great variety with different flavors, all delicious. I was very satisfied with everything. Highly recommended, and I will definitely come back again!
Eve - 8 months ago

came for seafood… stayed for the scallops 🥄scallop carpaccio was super fresh, clean & light 🥄the grilled scallops tho — simple but so good We're sitting outdoor quite nice, easy, no-fuss spot when you’re craving good seafood
Thanida Thongbor - 5 months ago

Very Americanized place….so take that as you may. The oysters were fresh and reasonably priced. However, I got the sea bass and it was overcooked and therefore very dry. So it was definitely not worth the €38. Also if you try to pay by credit card, they charge you a fee because it is not a European card, which doesn’t make sense because everywhere else in Paris there’s no extra fee for using a non European credit card.

I think about the caramel crepe all the time…. We stayed in paris for a month and the workers definitely recognized me and my partner after going twice in a week and probably twice afterwards atleast…. We also tried the crepe suzette but I don’t think I’m a fan of orange rum but it was an impressive presentation. I would recommend for sure ;)

The crêpes were absolutely delicious — both the savory and sweet ones were fantastic! The staffs were not only friendly and kind, but also stunning. They kept bringing us water without us even asking, even though we didn’t order anything extra. Great service and great food!
summer summer - a year ago

First time to Paris and knew we had to try Crepes! Suzette did not disappoint, we had the Galette Pastourelle, Apple and Caramel Crepe and the Chestnut Cream Crepe. All very well flavoured and would highly recommend. Beyond the excellent taste experience was the exceptional service provided by Victor. His willingness to educate and recommend was top notch and definitely add to our wonderful meal.

Their buckwheat pâte is just perfect. We were able to sit inside with our two small dogs (worth noting it wasn’t crowded then).

Cuisine was just ok. Service was attentive. However, the push for a tip upon paying is (to me) bad taste when “service included” is standard fare in France.
Karlan Stephenson - 4 months ago

I tried the seafood don and it was very delicious. Many types of fish were served and all were very fresh. It was value for money because the portion was so BIG! You must try if you wanna experience great Japanese food in Paris. And the staff (or the boss) were very friendly.

Great food with wonderful service. We took the oden soup, chu toro sashimi, and two special rolls, one with almond and one with mango. Highly recommend.

My sashimi at this Chinese ran restaurant was not fresh. Left a bad taste in my mouth now which I’m trying to get rid of. Service was good and quick but quality of fish isn’t fit for sashimi. Price is slightly on higher side for portions.

My mum and I spent the past two evenings here and had the best time, even through the heat:) Amazing food and a special service. Laughing together, talking a lot and very attentive (received cold tap water all evening and fans were put up). Even though the restaurant was full at some point he took the time to take care of each individual. Can’t wait to come back someday and enjoy the food and lovely ambience. Thank you for making our trip special. :)

We went to this Italian restaurant yesterday. Overall, the experience was okay, but I expected a bit more. The pasta was average — not bad, but not very memorable. Maybe we just chose the wrong dishes, because judging by the reviews, many people really like this place. We also had carpaccio with lemon, and parmesan as an appetizer, and it was very good. But the best dish of the evening was definitely the tiramisu — it was the most delicious part of the dinner. The portion was big and the dessert was really excellent.
Anastasiia Khritankova - 6 months ago

Absolutely fabulous❤️🤌🏻 This place has my heart! I haven’t tried the mains on the menu yet! I always go for pastas and they are irresistibly gorgeous! So delicious and Al dente just the way it should be! Nice, cute, tiny and cozy place. You must really be stupid if you have leftovers in your plate by the end of your meal😌 Staff is super friendly! Service 10/10 Ambience 10/10 (I personally love it) Food 11/10 Oh, and make sure you don’t leave the restaurant without having any desserts (even if you have diabetes or not😉) Panna Cotta is your love at first sight and it should be illegal to leave without having tiramisu! They are pretty generous with their portions. After all, its an Italian restaurant💁🏼‍♂️ Can’t wait for my next pasta day🥰🥰 This is my favourite Italian restaurant in Paris!
tejas khairnar - 3 years ago

The pasta dishes were all delicious, making me want to come back and try more varieties! The veal was slightly greasy. The tiramisu was very tasty; it would have been even better with more ladyfingers!
