"We went with the expectation of enjoying a family time and went out with the worst experience of discrimination we have felt. We visited the restaurant last Wednesday, March 15, 2023 at 8:30PM the restaurant did not seem very full. The first interaction was rough and cold located us at the lower part of the restaurant, as soon as we were assigned the table we saw how other diners arrived and were treated quickly despite arriving after us, they brought their drinks and food in less than 10 minutes. Other comensal tourists like us had to talk to the waitress to attend to them and it was a case of omission. After waiting 25 minutes I try to talk to the waiter to know when they come to maybe offer us something to drink and their deal was indifferent and in their little English said wait!!! Very bad experience where we feel discriminated against as tourists and not speak the same language. Being Paris a city so visited by tourists I do not know how they can have employees so inefficient and with zero empathy and if at least try to get understood we speak Spanish and English. But not even Bonjour told us at the entrance. The worst experience. If you are a local well if you are a tourist, go with your reservations to see who understands you and who wants to serve and treat with respect the diners."

Terrible. Family and I waited for 15 minutes at table to even be acknowledged. We were not. It wasn't busy. Only 5 tables with guests. We left. Walked across the street to La Ruche. We highly suggest La Ruche.

Je comprends la frustration des examens précédents. La seule plainte que j'ai avec ce restaurant était mon serveur mâle nommé Adahi. T. Il ne m'a pas accueilli, n'a pas souri, ne m'a pas offert d'eau; comme les autres tables. J'aurais dû attendre encore 30 minutes pour le changement de personnel. Si ce n'était pas pour le surveillant ou le manager et la serveuse féminine, j'aurais dû partir avant mon arrivée. Le serveur mâle me rend heureux que je retourne aux Etats-Unis lundi.

A good place only if you're in a pinch. We had bad weather and popped in because it was close and there were lots of seats. The food is just ok. We had some problems with most of our meals. They were corrected somewhat, but it took considerable time. The potato chips they put on your table are really good. In the end I'd compare it to food court quality. The servers are helpful and get the job done. The restaurant is cute with a steakhouse theme. There are lots of other options a few steps away.

The tartare was good. I believe it had onion, horseradish and a pinch of parsley chopped up in the chopped beef. I wouldn't order the baked potato again. It was a little dry. The mashed potatoes were much tastier. My son enjoyed his fish and chips even though there were only three pieces of fried fish, he still didn't finish his fries. The gents of the family devoured their Carmelito ice cream sundae. My daughter enjoyed a Dame Blanche which is vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce and whipped cream. Voir le carte

This was not a great Paris dining experience! The service was horrible. I had to go to the bar and ask for someone to wait on us after we sat at our table for a good 15 min. The waitress was lovely also English speaking which was plus! The food was a 2 out of 5. I had the salmon which was tasteless and the portion very small. The béarnise sauce was less to be desired. The string beans came out ice cold!. My husband had the steak and fries. He claimed it was just ok. Nothing to write home about. So it was my first night in Paris and lets just say I will not be returning to this establishment. I was not impressed at all.

I'm kind of surprised to see the polarized comments. Granted we ate here at a time where it wasn't too busy. Our experience was good. After trying to figure out the French menu, our waiter who reminded me of Keegan Michael Key in both appearance and voice suggested an English menu that made things a bit easier on us. While a burger dinner seemed expensive (approx 17 euros $20) it's important to remember that tax is included and there is no tipping. My salmon dinner was 16 or 17 Euros which is about what I pay for a similar dinner in similar US restaurants ... BEFORE taxes and tip. The food was delicious, the decor was nice and modern, and I'd be happy to dine here again.

We had a magnificent time here. Although our sever did not speak English our Parisian host guided us through. The atmosphere is fun and reminiscent of a dive bar. The decor is phenomenal. We sat on the upper loft that looks down onto the stairs. We ordered steak, tartar, calamari and of course indulged in French onion soup. As a word of caution get a thicker piece of steak if you enjoy medium, the thinner cut we ordered medium well but it came out well done. The tartar was enormous and tasted just as delightful. The calamari lacked flavor but the French onion soup more than made up for it. They offer bread, naturally, however some of it was either stale or over baked. Over all it was a great...

Cet endroit a une ambiance amusante et un personnel d'attente amical. Nous nous sommes assis en bas près de la cuisine et cela a fait pour une soirée divertissante. Les prix étaient raisonnables. Le repas a commencé avec un panier de chips gratuit. J'avais le tartare classique qui était deux fois plus grand que prévu de la photo sur le menu. Et c'était savoureux. J'avais aussi un côté de pommes de terre en purée. Si je devais deviner, je dirais qu'ils font leurs taters masqués avec beaucoup de beurre et une touche de paradis parce qu'ils étaient incroyables!!! Les côtes et les steaks étaient bons aussi, mais comme un mot de prudence, si vous aimez vos steaks plus sur le côté bien fait, juste...

Until today, my wife and I used to frequently say that there's no such thing as a bad burger. We were wrong. Today, we both had the worst burger of our lives. We are avid burger fanatics, so I guess it was just a matter of time before it happened. But it happened. First I thought it might have been undercooked, but the color seemed right. Then I thought it might be rotten beef, but again the color seemed fine, and the smell wasn't terrible. I figured maybe mine was an aberration for some reason, but my wife's burger was just as bad. I told the waiter that the burger was bad and asked for the check. I'm not sure if he fully understood because we were speaking in English, but no effort was mad...
