Bistrot Richelieu

Friendly service and good quality dishes. I choice onion soupe and Bœuf Bourguignon. Each dishes also good taste, and particularly Boeuf Bourguignon served with hot plate. Server was really friendly fun, and gently. I recommend this restaurant.

Had quite a bit of anxiety coming to France because people kept telling me how unfriendly everyone is so walking into this restaurant and not being able to speak French, I was a bit nervous. Foreigners, fret not! The people that work here are so lovely and kind not only to English speakers but others too. They are very helpful and not judgemental, give great recommendations, and make sure you feel comfortable. The food was also great. You will be set if you order an entree and a main as it is quite filling. I really enjoyed the onion soup, and they were actually very generous with the cheese. The beef stew was cooked in a cast iron pan which not only aesthetically beautiful but great for me. It is a little on the salter side for those who are sensitive to salt. Highly recommend coming here as a date or family. It is quiet enough to have a chat but not too rowdy. I do recommend booking but they also have a lot of space so you won’t be waiting too long if at all if you walk in.

Me myself came across the restaurant and decided to have my first French duck meal (confit de canard) here. I have to say it's amazing!! Omg for a long time I don't eat duck meat but it's the best French taste I've ever had in France so far. The dessert also is amazing...A 5/5 experience, recognized by a Chinese foodie😍😍😍

Convinced the onion soup is so great in France because their cheese tastes so amazing. It was also so thinly grated so not all clumped together. The mussels were also so fresh. Great service as well. Busy during lunch when we came.

Fantastic tartare - probably top three of any place I've been. The steak cut was tornadeo and was cooked on the rarer side of medium rare. This may have made it a little tougher than you would want, but it was delicious otherwise. The frites were amazing. Best part of the meal was our waiter Franck, who was very personable and engaging. His wine recommendation paired really nicely as well! Great place to go for lunch if you're visiting the Louvre.

Exactly what I needed after 4 1/2 hours walking through the Louvre. Great service. It is a smaller restaurant/Brasserie, but I find that “hole-in-the-wall eateries tend to have better prepared foods. The ambience was a bit noisy and busy but that is to be expected in a tourist hot spot. Regardless it was nice to put my feet up and dig in to a nice meal.

Delicious comfort food at reasonable prices. Dishes are well-presented, flavorful, and satisfying. The place is charming and cozy, and the customer service is warm and attentive. Great spot for a relaxed Parisian meal!
