- Joanna GongAugust 15, 2014The restaurant that chefs visit in Paris. Wonderful food. Try the beef cheek, calamari stuffed with rice, steak, or cochon de lait braise. Tip: if you don't want to wait go at an awkward time like 4.
- Ahmed SabbourJanuary 19, 2017I absolutely enjoyed this meal. We had the lamb shank and octopus couscous. It is really crowded, so call them for a booking preferably. We skimmed in for lunch without a booking but we were lucky.
- James MonaghanSeptember 21, 2013Three words: cochon au lait. Amazing suckling pig on a bed of lentils, absolutely exploding with flavour. Vegetable salad to start is a good option, although the specials are solid too.
- Joanne WanOctober 28, 2013The stuffed calamari with orzo and squid ink is the best squid I've ever had in my life. Be sure to order it to experience the most tender yet flavorful squid ever.
- Adam RoweJune 13, 2015Yves Camdeborde’s beloved bistro, once neo and now classic. Book months in advance for weeknight, no-choice dinner, or just queue up at lunch or weekends for the so-called “brasserie menu”.

- sebastianOctober 5, 2015Had to spend some time outside waiting for a table to get available. But it was worth it. The food, the ambiance, everything was great. Strongly recommended.
- Romy Alyssa MadisonMay 1, 2016Everything was stunning and delicious. Great French cuisine. Amazing carte des vins. It s expensive for the service you get. Waitresses can't manage many customers. You need to line to get there.
- T SApril 1, 2018Great entrees, good wine selection, but watch out for your mains (we misread ours and got something we didn’t want). Super crowded another don’t take bookings.
- Dan EApril 6, 2019Can’t go wrong. Get wine by the carafe (go full litre) and order with emphasis on meat. And don’t forget the œufs mayonnaise.
- Chloe MaSeptember 17, 2014Recommended by anthony bourdain. famous dishes include Salade nicoise, Foie Gras & Toast de Pain, and beef cheek. You should order their Apple Tart as dessert, you won't regret it
- Richmond YMay 3, 2013awesome bistro if you can get a seat. we went for "linner" and had 3 things: oeuf mayonnaise, duck terrine confit w/ foie gras, and Niçoise salad
- hinyan wongMay 29, 2015Come at just before 12:00 for lunch and get a table you want. Otherwise you'll be waiting on the street. Lobster bisque is good.
- SparkieJanuary 9, 2014During the week they take reservations pricey tasting menu, but on the weekends (starting Friday at lunch), they don't take reservations. Refined cafe/bistro fare, and is a pretty good value.
- Chris B VillasenorAugust 30, 2018The escargots are delicious, tried the Niçoise salad. Really good experience. A bit on the pricey side but nonetheless worth it.
- Katy ZackAugust 21, 2016Great food just a block away from Luxembourg gardens. Get the terrine, croque, and whatever seafood/fish specials they have - you really can't go wrong.
- Condé Nast TravelerOctober 18, 2016“It’s always crowded. Go for lunch and order the oeufs mayonnaise, terrine of pâté, and whatever seems seasonal.” - Mitchell Davis, executive vice president of the James Beard Foundation Read more
- Varun ShettyJune 19, 2014A sandwich worthy of the name Monsieur. While peasants overburden their sandwiches with too much cheese, Le Comptoir finely toasts their bread, adds just enough creamy cheese and hits the spot.
- Zach AaronsApril 2, 2012There is a reason why this is the toughest table right now in Paris: the food is exquisite. Brilliant for lunch and wonderful for dinner, the food is simple and sublime. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
- Sara JoyJuly 22, 2017"this is a quintessential Parisian experience with wonderful classics, charcuterie and my personal favourite, the Brandade Gratinée (a popular dish with salted cod)."
- okimikoJuly 20, 2017Classic high quality Parisian brasserie with great service in a crowdy and touristy part of town.
- TaylorDecember 30, 2012Had to try the Cochin du Lait, was very good. Scallop salad was amazing. Sat outside, steady line throughout the afternoon.
- Samir GoleAugust 17, 2013The calamari is great! I don't speak much French so wasn't sure what I was getting into but was pleasantly surprised to see it come stuffed with risotto. Delicious.
- richard kashidaAugust 18, 2016Suckling pig w lentils... Also ask for butter with your bread. It comes marbled and tastes great.
- Raul ValleJanuary 3, 2015Amazing food. Overall meats are very good but daube is a must have. Go there for early dinner (~7pm) to avoid long lines.
- jon nguyenJune 3, 2012Try the Carre D'agneau Roti - rack of lamb with some suuuuper sweet peppers! after a 2 hr wait (YES, 2 HOURS!) i think everyone had a great meal...superior ingredients wins again
- Lisa WiedmeyerMay 5, 2016Love love love the bone marrow! So worth it! To say everything was amazing is an understatement. Best meal in Paris!
- Rob NguyenAugust 13, 2018Great food and atmosphere. Generously portioned cheese assortment. Try to arrive before 6 to beat the rush.
- Enrique NaldaSeptember 13, 2011Yves is our favourite chef in Paris! In addition of being the "father of bistronomy" (bistro/gastronomy) he is adorable and is as generous as its cuisine. Brasserie for lunch and gastro for dinner.
- Lindsey KimNovember 19, 2014Classic french food done very well. Portions are huge. Bone marrow was exquisite.
- Paul FarrellOctober 2, 2014Bizarre service, but amazing food. Suckling pig, beef cheek, salad nicoise and foie gras
- Fodor's TravelAugust 15, 2018The five-course prix fixe is chef’s choice and may feature haute cuisine versions of croque monsieur, salade niçoise, or steak-frites. Read more
- CristinaOctober 17, 2014love this place. French tapas. wine. can't go wrong as a small late lunch or before dinner snack
- Mariana RodriguesSeptember 25, 2016Menu for dinner was amazing, it finishes with a huge assortment of cheese and dessert
- Tom MooreSeptember 19, 2019The only meal we had in France where we felt like we were rushed and food mediocre. Go around the corner to their wine and tapas bars which are amazing.
- Mike KalenMay 10, 2014Fois' gras selection is excellent. Excellent good at reasonable prices. Traditional French but accommodating to Americans.
- Ali DaylanDecember 9, 2016I tried the beef cheeks and loved it. Service is fast enough but don't expect friendliness. Not spacious at all. You should finish with a desert and espresso. A little overpriced.
- Trevor RogersAugust 12, 2015A really great lunch menu and not too long of a wait if you sneak up on a week day.
- Eveline RApril 24, 2017Great small french Restaurant. Good service and amazing food. Be sure to try that one!!
- Reuters Business TravellerApril 1, 2011Getting a dinner reservation at this tiny, quintessential bistro in St Germain is nigh on impossible: it gets booked solid several months in advance. But no reservations are required at lunch.
- New York HabitatDecember 1, 2011Bistro atmosphere, top class food, and a great wine list. Hard to get a table because of no reservations so come early!
- Shola AmusaSeptember 16, 2011The best restaurant meal I've ever had. In a large square full of restaurants it was the only one with a line of people waiting to get in!
- Sam LeeMarch 15, 2015If you can snag a table- line up early to sneak in for lunch service, this place is pretty solid.
- Ashleigh GardnerApril 27, 2015The line goes fast and the smoked salmon croque monsieur is worth the wait.
- Iris NgAugust 21, 2014Coffee creme brûlée was nice with rich coffee flavor. Starters we had were good, but plats were mediocre. Waiter was a bit rude and elbowed us while putting down food without apologizing.
- Jan PJune 3, 2013Amazing food at a range of prices and good service. The bone marrow appetizer is a must.
