Café George V

The service by Mr. Marceau was exceptional . He was welcoming and attentive even though it was very late and the end of a long day . The steak was tasty and the potato gratin was delicious . The onion soup was a bit watery but tasty . The spaghetti bolognese was good too . We enjoyed our experience and would definitely recommend to others . Especially since most restaurants were closed and this cafe offered a very good late night dinner .

Had an easy, relaxing lunch at Café George V. Loved the courteous service and good food selection. They recommended a jumbo prawn linguine that wasn’t even on the menu—absolutely delicious! Perfect atmosphere right along the Champs-Élysées.

The location of this touristy spot is great, and the food isn’t exorbitantly priced. The mushroom omelette was huge and fluffy. The croissant had flaky layers, but wasn’t exactly soft and ethereal on the inside. The server would check in regularly after we received food.

Went here twice in one day as we enjoyed it so much! Most tender beef I’ve ever eaten in my life and the pizza was massive. Good atmosphere for a popular location. Pricing I felt was reasonable for the quality and the portion sizes. We were served by Max in the evening - I can honestly say it’s some of the best service I’ve had from anywhere in the world. I could not fault him in his manners, his attentiveness and his English accent, despite being French! Loved it and will be coming back on my next trip!

Overall a great experience. Situated amongst all the shopping stores at the ARC, this restaurant although street level, provides world class service as if it were atop the arch or Eiffel Tower. Food - Menu attached. They offer a variety of foods. We dined on pepperoni pizzas, fries, linguine pasta, hamburger. 1 point was deducted as when ordering, waiter confirmed “bacon” on burger, but when the food came and waiter was questioned where bacon was, we were told no bacon. They do offer desserts, which we tried crème brûlée and ice cream for the kids. Service - We had Fabien, who was phenomenal. They wait outside and escort you to a table as “VIP”. Everyone gets VIP (smile). Ordering was prompt and the time it took the food to come out was very fast. Atmosphere- They offer both indoor and covered outdoor dining. If your by the Arc and want a quick sit down meal, this is the spot.

A cafe on the Champs-Élysées. The waiters were all relatively older, professional men, and the service was quick. That was my first impression of them. However, they made quite a few mistakes with our orders. A couple of our orders took a long time to arrive, so we asked them to make it to go instead of dining in. Despite that, when I paid by card, a waiter asked me "How much?" All he had to do was enter the price on the bill. Simple. That already included service charge. In other words, he demanded me a tip I assume. I paid a rounded price and change.

So this was a very special dinner and our first meal in Paris, the city of love. And I absolutely loved it, the ambiance, the food, the location, the atmosphere, everything. We had a scrumptious pasta along with a Burrata salad. This gorgeous cafe had beautiful outdoor seating as well but we preferred the indoor lightning seats. This place is within walking distance of Arc De Triomphe; we were famished while strolling and exploring the beauty of Paris at night and found this cute cafe.

The food was good... the service was excellent! Very professional and friendly server. The food is a bit overpriced, but the restaurant is located right on the Champs Elysee.

Came into Café George when doing some shopping in the area cause you know how shopping makes one hungry. I did look pretty packed at first but we were able to get a table no problem. Once seated we looked over the menu. I noticed at first that all drinks were pretty pricey which makes sense for the area it is in. Food prices were not as bad but still higher then most. I will say they really have a little bit of everything on the menu. For sure was not expecting to see pizza but it was a touristy area so I get it. I went with the Ham and Cheese Crepe since we had been talking about getting one but hadn't seen it. Our food same out shortly and wow they really load the crepe up with cheese and it came out real hot too which I like and of course they had some of their amazing mustard on the table which was nice and spicy. I will say the crepe itself was thicker then I expected it to be and didn't have that much flavor to it either and not much ham but again the melty large about of cheese here really saved it for me. Ashley got the French Onion Soup which I got to try and it was actually the best I had on this trip. For sure the rich beef broth you look for in a good French Onion Soup.

Très mauvaise expérience. Le personnel a été extrêmement impoli et nous a traités avec un profond manque de respect dès notre arrivée. Mon ami Lonche (qui est pourtant une personnalité connue) a été particulièrement mal traité, sans aucune raison valable. L'attitude du staff était clairement discriminatoire et totalement inacceptable. Le service client est catastrophique : aucun professionnalisme, aucun effort pour être accueillant, et une ambiance très désagréable. Nous nous sommes sentis jugés et non désirés, ce qui n'a rien à faire dans un établissement censé accueillir le public. Je ne recommande absolument pas ce café. Si je pouvais mettre 0 étoile, je le ferais sans hésiter.

exploring the city of Paris once again and this time i am travelling alone. I was determined to explore and experience as much as I could for a week. I came across Cafe George V during my Morning walk by Champ Elysees and decided to dine in for brunch. The servers were all so welcoming with bright smiles in the morning. I was seated quite immediately and was offered a menu. My server explained the menu and I elected to order the breakfast package of hot coco with freshly squeezed orange juice with freshly baked croissants and toast with butter and jam on the side and ham and cheese omelet with fresh salad on the side. my orders were serve on a timely manner and it was all so good and perfect. The price wasn't so bad either and it was affordable. I enjoyed my time and I won't hesitate to dine here again for next time. Highly recommend!

Le 09/01/2026 vers 16h20, je me suis rendu au café-restaurant LE GEORGE V, situé 120 Avenue des Champs-Élysées, 75008 Paris (table 46). Nous avons consommé uniquement : - 1 café latte - 1 thé à la menthe - 1 pâtisserie (" douceur du jour ") Le serveur a présenté une première note (ticket n°107) d'un montant total de 50,50 €, comprenant plusieurs articles que nous n'avons ni commandés ni consommés (ex. cappuccino, chocolat, camomille), ainsi qu'une ligne vague " divers brasserie ". Après contestation, une seconde note (ticket n°108) de 32,50 € nous a été présentée, mais sans aucun détail, seulement " 1 consommation ", ce qui ne permet pas de vérifier les produits réellement facturés. J'ai demandé à parler à un responsable ; cela a d'abord été refusé. Le comportement du personnel est devenu agressif et intimidant, et nous avons dû quitter les lieux. L'incident a fortement choqué ma compagne. Je signale ces faits pour surfacturation, facturation de produits non consommés, absence de facture détaillée conforme et comportement intimidant. On 01/09/2026 at approximately 4:20 PM, I went to the café-restaurant LE GEORGE V, located at 120 Avenue des Champs-Élysées, 75008 Paris (table 46). We consumed only: * 1 café latte * 1 mint tea * 1 pastry ("pastry of the day") The server first presented a bill (receipt no. 107) for a total amount of €50.50, which included several items that we neither ordered nor consumed (e.g. cappuccino, hot chocolate, chamomile tea), as well as a vague line item labeled "miscellaneous brasserie." After disputing this bill, a second receipt (receipt no. 108) for €32.50 was presented to us, but without any itemization, showing only "1 consumption," making it impossible to verify what products were actually charged. I asked to speak with a manager; this was initially refused. The behavior of the staff then became aggressive and intimidating, and we were forced to leave the premises. The incident deeply upset my partner. I am reporting these facts for overcharging, billing for items not consumed, failure to provide a compliant detailed invoice, and intimidating behavior.

This place is racial profiling from the moment you stepped inside the building. They will discriminate and reject service if you are not white skin. I don't recommend

When I'm in Paris, I make it a point to stop at Café George five at least once. The wait staff are super friendly and they have an English menu for us Non-French speaking visitors. I love sitting outside and watching the people go up and down while eating. They make the best French onion soup which of course here in France is only called onion soup. If you need a snack or a whole meal, this is a great place to go.

I walked in just wanting a simple coffee and crepe, but instead I got one of the most bizarrely rude experiences I've ever had in a café. All the servers were standing outside watching me walk in, yet not one of them bothered to say a word. I sat there for over 10 minutes while staff repeatedly walked past me like I was invisible. When I finally asked for a menu, an older man snapped, "You're not with me," as if I'd somehow made a mistake by... sitting down in an empty café? The attitude was unreal. If you enjoy being ignored, confused, and spoken to like an inconvenience, this is your place. Otherwise, save yourself the time--plenty of cafés in Paris actually welcome their customers.

A special place with great energy and kind staff. Le George V provides a smart amount of care from each of their staff members and with a smile. Many might overlook this spot because it's directly on Champs Èlysèes but you must give this restaurant and try. The portions are large and the Croque Monsieur extremely wonderful. They also have a seasonal cocktail that is wonderful so ask for this and try it blindly as they are always very very good. The energy of this place is true Parisian cafe culture and the quintessential ambiance for your trip to Paris. I prefer this for a final meal before heading to the airports or boarding the metro and I suggest you make it part of your Paris story while visiting next.

Not a good dining experience. We went here over the weekend in July during the afternoon. The food was mid, but what ruined our experience were two things. First, the waiter asked whether we wanted to tip 10% or 20%, which we found odd considering tipping is more optional in France and normally the customer gets to choose how much they'd like to tip based on the service, not the other way around. We verbally authorized a 10% tip, but when we later looked at the final receipt it showed a 20% tip. By the time we noticed, it was too late as we had left already - a fault on our part. But the waiter was holding the card machine the entire time and didn't show us the screen - another red flag. Second, they usually serve small dishes of complimentary olives before ordering food. Both tables next to us received this dish, but our table did not. Don't know if race played a factor (we aren't Caucasian) or if our waiter forgot. All three tables including ours were seated and served by the same waiter around the same time, BTW.

They take advantage of tourists. I ordered a glass of wine that the waiter suggested. Didn't think to ask the price as wine is usually fairly priced in Paris. Imagine my surprise when I found out it was €27. And it wasn't even that good. Prove check everything before you order.

The waiter is very rude. Our family of four sat inside left side by our initial waiter. We sat for five minutes looking at the menu. An older waiter, rudely demanded us to move said our table was reserved. There was no indication of reserved seating. The restaurant was not too busy and was at the correct lunch time around 1pm on a Monday 12/23/25. We were rushed to order, to eat and billed us immediately after we finish eating. My daughter was not even finished her salad and the waiter took her p!ate away! Not my first time in Paris. Everywhere I've been people are super nice. Now I know why some say the French are snobby. Food was mid. Terrible service, DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Great French food with a beautiful view of the Arc De Triomphe. Wonderful service that was very friendly, attentive, and happy to give suggestions and answer questions. Very reasonably priced and did not leave hungry. I tried the steak tartar and loved it! Plus the best crème brulee I've ever had! I only review restaurants I find outstanding, and this was one of them

I walked in hoping to Harry Pleasant with my friends, until we walked through the door and look how dirty the entrance was and ruined my appetite. I hope customers don't get experience. to mention. The terrible customer service. They should be hiring Experienced people to serve my food.

Great location on the Main Street of Champs Elyses, right across from Louise Vuitton. After being treated badly from Washington Poste, this was great service. We got a great table outside of the view of the street and stores. Drinks are mild but great food options. Vegan and vegetarian as well.

Refreshing fresh orange juice, yummy crepe and hot americano for an afternoon snack. Service is prompt and friendly.

The Negroni is fantastic! The staff is very friendly and the food is pretty good. We usually stop here on our way on the Champs-Élysées in Paris. There is great people watching so sit close the the street!

Café George V has a lot going for it, along with an over abundance of surly servers who will leave you non-plus. We had our Concierge call ahead to make reservations. When we arrived, we were shown to a few tiny tables near the front for our party of six. Fortunately, our French relatives picked up on the slight and explained things to them in a friendly, colloquial French sort of way. We were then reseated in the back. The food here isn't bad (photos). Our group ordered everything from Steak Tartare, to Duck, to grilled steak, to Croque Monsieur and Madame. All were very good. But when we went to order dessert, our server decided he only wanted to show the Dessert Tray to one end of our long table. Again our relatives intervened in French. LOL. Ahh, to be in Paris. The food is Four Stars, but the service is barely Two; so you decide if it's worth the merde.

I stopped in here while strolling the Champs-Élysées way back in 2011. Was touring Paris with my mother and brother during the holiday season and the restaurant happened to have an open table to seat us even though it was very busy. From what I can recall, I believe I had a hotdog with fries (a very bougie hotdog on a baguette, I might add), and my mom had a salad. Couldn't tell you what my brother ordered. Our waiter was very kind and it was just so great to sit and people watch since the Champs-Élysées is so active. Amazingly, I even got a small print of the Champs-Élysées with the Arc de Triomphe in the background, and Café George happened to be featured in it. So I'll always have the memory of dining there.

The food was horrible and the service is terrible. they kicked me out because I complained

Is George touristy? Yes. Is George overpriced? Yes. Do I come here almost every time I visit this area? Yes. Why? The people watching is exceptional. Also, the waiters aren't as bad as you will find elsewhere. They don't rush you, either. I guess I basically come here for the nostalgia of it all. Hope you do, too.

Although this is a tourist trap as it's located right next to the Arc de Triomphe on Champs Elysees street, they do provide good service and good food. As it's convenient for most tourists who are visiting Arc de Triomphe that want to sample some french foods and don't want to pay the prices from the cafe across the street, this is a good place to get most of classic French food such as lamb, escargots, boeuf bourguignon, pastas and french fries. We came for their breakfast. I had a satisfying chocolate drink and a delicious salmon crepe. Both of these are very French. I just regretted that I didn't have a chance to have breakfast at Angelina Paris that has the world renown creamy hot chocolate. Maybe next time. My friend got their omelette and he was very satisfied with his meal. The prices were reasonable especially with the strong dollars. Our service Andre provided us very good service and showed us how to get to Chanel store for shopping duty.

It always frustrates me when I am so hungry I forget to take pics until it's too late! This was one of those situations. So Cafe George V is on the main street and where all the tourists are lurking. You assume that because it's tourist central, everything will be overpriced, gross and crowded. I was pleasantly surprised to find this place reasonably priced, good and reasonably crowded. I also think a bit of context matters when you eat at a restaurant like this...meaning, do you really expect it to be NOT crowded? The food was tasty, decent priced, and good portions. I had a ground steak (basically a hamburger) with egg and fries. It definitely needed salt, but was cooked well and portioned well. The rest of the family ordered and were all happy with the meals. Seating was tight as we were sitting in the very back of the restaurant and couldn't get out without people moving chairs. But not a big deal. The wait staff was friendly. The ambiance was nice. The restrooms definitely needed a cleaning. Overall, I can't complain. This place was a great choice for a quick dinner before a long walk on Champs de Elysse. Happy we tried it!

Food less than good and service from our server, embarrassing to call French service. Truly the most disappointing experience since being in France for 10 days. The prices, the quality all just contributed to a woeful lunch. Run from this place. I only wish the owner or manager were available. Yuck rhymes with another word...it should be called Cafe Yuck! Oh, the ambiance fools you thinking it's good. Try the bathrooms, filthy.

Awful food. Asked if we wanted to leave 10 or 20 percent at the end of a terrible meal -- as if zero wasn't an option. Very expensive for a meal half as well done as McDonald's!

To the tourist, please be careful ordering, your server will tell you, that they have special and will entice you to order it and when you are distracted, you will forget to to ask the price. The price is not listed then you will get the bill and will be surprised that the special is overpriced. Your server will also ask you on the spot for tips. He say, if you like my service, would you tip me and will only give you two choices to click, 10 percent and 20 percents. You would be pressure on the spot. Please be careful. My fish was 56$ and very overpriced! I wish we read the reviews but we wer already tired walking so I didnt bother to check

Is it possible to find a bad meal in Paris? Not on our trip. We chose Cafe George V because of its location, in the heart of the French fashion district. The Champs Elysees was bursting with traffic and people bustling about, so naturally we chose curbside dining. Like all the Paris restaurants we visited, English is spoken. We can't get enough escargot or onion soup, so they preceded our dinners of steak tartare and boeuf bouguingnon. A cheese platter and dessert rounded out the meal. Every dish was well prepared and flavorful. We had a wonderful time!

The onion soup was very tasty, I give it a solid 4. There was less broth overall than I would like, but it had great flavor. Best I have had so far this trip, this is the 3rd I've had. The club poulet left a bit to be desired for me. It came out presented well, but the chicken isn't freshly cooked so that is a non- starter for me. The salad was ok. Lettuce looked fresh but I didn't love the dressing. It was good enough, but not great. The hot chocolate was yummy. When I go next time I am going to try the crepes. My friend had the mushroom and cheese crepe and said it was very good.

I should have read the reviews especially Karen's review 2 months ago. The same exact thing happened to me. I ordered the salmon off the menu and the waiter insisted the special of the day a white fish is so so much better. I should have caught on when the waiter was trying to tell my wife the special steak is from France and so much better then the one is was ordering but at least she stood her ground and stuck with the steak from the menu so tourist beware not to get the special unless you ask how much it cost. My salmon would have been 26 euros but my white fish was 56 euros and was so small compared to the salmon I saw another lady eating and beware when asking for water cause they will sell you bottle water

Loved everything about this charming little spot. We stumbled in looking for a bite to eat after shopping and I'm so glad we found Cafe George V. Ordered a bottle of Bordeaux and a salted ham and cheese crepe which comes with a yummy side of mixed greens. The ambiance is perfect as they have the option to sit outside (it's heated) or inside. Service was stellar and I'm very happy overall!

Cafe George V is located on Champs Elysées and it is a great place to stop by for a bite to eat. We were there around 7:30 pm and the place was super busy. Our server, Laurent, was super friendly and accommodating. He moved us to a table next up front because we wanted watch to people watch while eating. We had Irish coffee and wine, followed by vegetable and onion soup. Both were delicious. The price is a bit on the high side but when you compare to other restaurants is Paris it is comparable and when you put its location on perspective, the price is fair. Note: they do not take reservations.

Visit Benjamin at George V if you're ever in Paris. This review is only for Benjamin's excellent service and the desserts. He is the best waiter and is very knowledgeable about the menu. Benjamin was attending to 10 other tables, but made us feel as we were his only customers. All with a smile a few jokes! He was very attentive and quickly served us our food and drinks. We visited the restaurant for drinks and crepes, however Benjamin brought the dessert platter to us and explained the items with great detail, we changed our minds and ordered the praline chocolate mousse and strawberry tart. All were delicious! I know this restaurant is located in a busy tourist area, but his service and the desserts could rival any five restaurant. Thank you Benjamin!

This was a great spot for lunch on the Champs-Elysees. We really overthought it and walked a ton looking at all the menus on every cafe. We wished we had just stopped at Cafe George V from the start. Their menu had a good selection, and the prices were reasonable. As it was raining, we opted for an indoor table. It was cozy and warm inside, and service was excellent. We enjoyed a bottle of wine, escargot (my starter), French onion soup (my husband's started), and a croque monsieur (shared). It was the perfect amount of food, and everything was really good! They also brought a large basket of bread, which is a must for dipping for the escargot and the soup. Was it the absolute best French meal I ever had? No...but it was really solid, especially for lunch. And the Dijon mustard on the table was the BEST mustard I have ever eaten. I wish I had asked what brand it was. I ate it on everything!! I'm still thinking about it. Highly recommend if you're in the area and looking for typical French food. A lot of the other cafes in that area are much more expensive, or had terrible reviews.

An embarrassment to French Cuisine. Bavette was such poor quality, it was too tough even though we had it medium rare. Plus, the bread for the table was so stale and tough, it made me appreciate the steak more. The server we had was friendly and all, but when I told him that the steak was tough, all he said was ,"It's a classique" and shrugged. I guess he loves his steak like rubber. Béarnaise was definitely not made fresh. It had the texture of a lumpy, congealed scrambled egg. Fries were as soggy as a wet sock. Ambience looked great. Just wondering if George V had a strong jaw for rubbery Bavette. Wish I had pictures, just didn't want to waste my storage with shitty food pictures. In other words, don't come here.

We ate outside - service was good and beef bourginon was good but a few beef pieces were overcooked. I enjoyed sitting outside and they had plastic up to somewhat block the wind. Overall - just ok. Would not go back but would try something else.

Probably a tourist trap as the other mentioned - we figured this was the equivalent of a diner to the French. But this was better than the American standard for sure and we had a nice meal here Just went for escargots and French onion soup; we also had croque monsieur and a strawberry/pineapple shake. It was all good!

Walking along the Champs Elysées on a Sunday afternoon, we were ready for some coffee and dessert. As it was a nice day, most places were sold out for outside seating, George V was no exception & they were busy. We took a table inside close to the front of the restaurant. Cappuccino was strong and nicely balanced between espresso and milk. Crepes were also ordered. We enjoyed the Nutella/Banana but the Grand Mariner Crepe sounded better than reality. It was a Crepe with a sprinkle of the Liqueur (wouldn't order again). This flavor is better with Nutella mixed with Grand Mariner as I've had in other spots. That said the Chocolate Opera Cake was amazing! Rich layers of chocolate and very light cake. Our server was attentive and friendly and took good care of us. Saw some other tables that were having lunch-salad, sandwiches which looked good. Great spot for coffee and dessert accompanied with a loud and upbeat atmosphere.

Horrifyingly bad. Spend your tourist dollars elsewhere. The food was mediocre and the service less than perfunctory. My husband ordered a glass of red wine and when it came he fished eight bugs out of it. I guess the small flies were on the bottle and got washed in when the waiter poured? How did the waiter not notice? The waiter shrugged when my husband showed him the corpses he had collected. He did bring a fresh glass, but merely said the bugs like wine. There were many nice looking cafes on the other side of the street. Go there instead.

Went for dinner with my wife & daughter on Dec 28 as it was the only restaurant in the area that was available without a huge line to get in, What a huge mistake Try to avoid this place if you can. Beside the quality of the food we experienced sharing dinner with a mouse in the room. I can only imagine how is the sanitary condition in the kitchen When you have mouse roaming the dinning area. A.Kerkado

Great service, quality food! Stopped in for a quick breakfast while waiting on LV to open and they got us in and out quick.

Everything about this restaurant was great. The waiter André took great care of us and checked on the table and asked did we need anything more very often. The food was flavorful and the bottle of rose wine we had topped everything off on a wonderful last night in Paris! I had the flank steak and the lady had spaghetti pasta. The bread to start off was delicious . Then we tried escargot for the first time and it seemed to have the best green sauce on it. My steak was cooked medium and came with fries and a salad. For dessert we shared a strawberry tart that was so fresh and flavorful. I most definitely will continue to eat here if and when i go back to Paris .

Delicious crepe and good coffee. For the price I think it could've been better, or bigger. But it's hard to mess up a crepe so it was an overall underwhelming experience for the price tag.

Don't do it! It is convenient and there are lots of people eating there, but these reviews are legit. For what you are paying, the food is not good. And, the waiters will try to upcharge you for everything because only tourists come here. When the bill comes, if you pay cash, they will say tip is not included. When I asked, do I need to pay tip, they will say, "I always get a tip". Talk about being pressured to leave a tip when you don't have to tip in Paris! So awkward and rude. The worst meal I've ever had in Paris. Please avoid at all cost.

Our granddaughter just graduated from college in June 2023. we gave her a round trip ticket to Paris as a gift for her great achievement. My husband and I are retired. We travel to Paris every year since 1999, we visit Paris every year in May for a month, and love to stop at the "Cafe George V" restaurant for lunch or dinner, the food is delicious. We brought our granddaughter Jenna and her boyfriend Kevin there for lunch, we sat outside at a table, we enjoyed the amazing view watching people go by in the most beautiful street in world, the Champs-Elysees.

Horrible food! For the price, this food is disgusting. You are better off eating at McDonalds. The pasta was flavorless. The beef was sour. The waiters are horrible. If you want to have a good experience in Paris..... AVOID THIS PLACE all together, it's no wonder they have 3 stars!!! Paid and left everything:(

It's a cafe on the Champs-Elysées. There are lots of them. They all serve basically the same sandwich, drinks, dessert menu. But hey! You're in Paris! You're on the Champs-Elysées!

If I could give negative stars I would it zero stars, this is the WORSE CAFE ALONG THIS STREET ! We ordered an omelet and veggies the eggs were so dry and the veggies were not fresh and it was $15 euros for the omelet with mushrooms and the yucky out of the can salad dressing. I thought this place was okay coz it's in the middle and it had some kind of nice name it seemed like a Cool place. When you're a tourist and the waiter invites you to sit down at a smoking place didn't even explain that it's a smoking place and I asked to be moved and you know what he said " oh you can't move coz I will Not be your server" major rudeness I Told him I'm allergic to smoke please save your money and try Le drugstore which has the best salmon and way better food for the price , do not waste your money here food is horrific . I should have just listened to reviews.

Where do I even start? While exploring the area near the Arc de Triomphe, it began to rain. My husband and I thought it would be a perfect time to grab some lunch and wait out the rain. I was really craving pasta and my husband had been wanting pizza. We searched and searched for a place that had pasta-- and we came across Cafe George V. While looking over the menu, a waiter came up to us and began talking to us. He asked if we needed any help with the menu and then asked us where we were from, if it was our first visit to Paris, etc. We wanted to sit outside under the patio, but he informed us it was a smoking area so we decided to sit inside the restaurant. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and accommodating. We speak very little French, but our waiter was patient while we tried and also spoke very good English. We ordered our food and it came out of the kitchen incredibly fast!!! My pasta was DELICIOUS! Seriously the best chicken I have ever had. My husband said it was one of the best pizzas he has ever had. The prices were not terrible, and in fact, we feel they fit what we ordered. We both left the restaurant full and now, 1 day later, are craving those meals again! We would definitely eat here again and recommend this place to everyone.

My party and I stopped in here on a late evening after attending a cabaret show at Lido where, looking back now, we probably should have dined. Nevertheless, we chose convenience and perceived ambiance over quality and paid the price for it. Though, this place is centrally located on the fabulous Champs Élysées, it doesn't stop it from being crap to attract easily taken tourists-we were taken, against my better judgement. Despite the large heated dining terrasse on the avenue, we opted to sit inside near the window, less chance of a stray cold breeze on this winter night and also no cigarette smoke (Parisians really love their cigarettes). There was some confusion about where we could sit, despite at this late hour, there was plenty of seating available. Our host said the area that we wanted to sit was not in his section; to which we replied, we didn't ask to sit in your section, but after an annoying back and forth in English and French, we simply conceded. I must also note, that he didn't even stay to finish serving us through the duration of our meal. He left the restaurant halfway through it. We all ordered different dishes. They were all quite subpar; average at best. I had been craving my duck confit from a nice French restaurant all trip and I was sorely disappointed. The bread was a winner though; consolation prize. Finally, two of us decided to go all out with desert crêpes with Nutella because, how can French people mess that up, right?! It wasn't memorable but the waiter insisted that I have signature glass of cognac with it which I didn't really want but needed to salvage the meal. He didn't tell me what cognac it was until it was on the table and I was tasting it; Hennessy XO; delicious and luckily being in France it wasn't as expensive as what I'd normally pay for it so there's a slight win. So, to recap, stop in here for bread and alcohol only or to smoke on the patio and converse with your friends. C'est la vie!

I wasn't expecting much considering how it's right on champs Elysées and a tourist hotspot. My boyfriend and I came here on a Wednesday for dinner after walking around the area trying to look for a good restaurant with no luck due to most places being closed due to Labor Day. It was pretty packed when we got here but noticed it was mostly tourists with a handful of locals. Food was ok. Service was pretty slow. Onion soup was good but nothing special. My boyfriend got the beef tartare and thought it was ok as well. Bread was cold and hard. Overall underwhelming experience.
