Ferdi

Well this place I’ve got to be more honest in all aspects is nice and the food made by passion to be in your table. The entire orders were made by great people behind the scenes. Even more the service from Mr. Kamal, was so great as well. I don’t want to spoil them but literally they made our day. They don’t serve burgers 🍔 if you are concerned but in the other branch which is belonging to his son they do.

Ferdi is a restaurant that provides an amazing experience for its customers. We tried getting a table on a previous visit to Paris a few years ago, but they told us that we had to make a reservation. Thus, we made sure to make a reservation this time and it had to be through an SMS message (we had help from a staff member from the hotel we were staying at), and we luckily found a reservation on the same day that we sent the message. However, I would like to point out that we did see some customers asking for a table without a reservation and they were given one; maybe it’s because there weren’t many people at the time. It’s better to make a reservation if you really want to try the restaurant (to be on the safe side). Food was divine. We ordered their famous Mac Ferdi cheeseburger, a Caesar salad (we asked for the bacon to be removed since we can’t eat pork, and they fulfilled our request happily), Mac and Cheese, and fries. We thought the burger comes fries, but it didn’t, so, if you’re craving fries, make sure to order them. The burger was very flavourful (one of the best I’ve ever had) but not very large. The Mac and Cheese definitely did not disappoint. The Caesar salad had a very tasty sauce. The staff were very friendly. Considering the size of the place, there were only a few waiters (3 or 4; I’m not sure). Consequently, it took a bit of time for someone to come take the order, and then some more time for someone to give you the bill, and then you have to wait to have someone let you pay your bill. We weren’t bothered by that, because we didn’t have anything planned that we really had to get to. The restaurant space was not very large, but it was comfy. The way the place was decorated was very unique, and I just kept admiring it.

The Ferdi on Rue du Mont-Thabor is a very busy spot and now we see why. Even as early as 18:30 expect an hour wait without reservations. The food is excellent, one of the best cheeseburgers ever. The mac and cheese is also great. I can’t wait to try their Latin dishes. The service is friendly and the atmosphere is fun.

Ferdi is a unique with a great and super friendly team that makes the dining experience even more enjoyable. The food is simply outstanding, with a menu offering great options for different tastes. The salads are decent, but the real star is the burger—it’s beautifully crafted with the perfect sauce, and the thin, crunchy French fries complement it perfectly. The food easily deserves a solid 5/5. The atmosphere is nice and inviting, though the place is quite small with only a few tables. Given its popularity, a reservation is a must to secure a spot. If you’re looking for a spot with top-tier food and warm hospitality, Ferdi is definitely worth a visit!

- first time to this branch, and I have to say that food was under my expectations. - It arrived hot but the burger’s bred was not fresh, the beef wasn’t that good as before. - Again it’s my first time to this branch but I remember that burgers were super tasty in the other branch. I don’t know if the other branch has this issue too since my last visit was in 2021 - moreover, employees were not kind enough with us. I hope that you pay attention to this since people are paying for what they eating and your not giving anything for free to treat them like that.. ربعنا الخليجيين ما انصحكم تتعنوا.. الصراحة مطاعم البرجر عندنا صارت افضل مليون مره من برّه..

We had the Mc ferdi’s burger and the naughty fries both were okay, I have had better than this. There are other dishes available too. The place is kind of small, if seated on the right side of the other tables, there’s a narrow space to move. The bathroom is outdated, could use an upgrade👍🏻 We might give it another shot for other dishes on menu.

Nice experience with great decoration! Recommend it if you want a different restaurant with friends.Nice experience with great decoration! Recommend it if you want a different restaurant with friends.

The food was really delicious, but the service didn’t quite meet expectations they weren’t very attentive. However, the atmosphere was beautiful and warm, just really cozy. Sitting there and eating my burger made me feel like a child again. I would come back if I’m in the mood for a burger 🤰🏽🍔

Great burger (added egg) the special sauce is awesome tastes a lot like horseradish. Ask them for a side of their hot sauce- it's spicy the flavor's amazing. The Mac cheese is good but the naughty fries (fries with a cheese sauce) aren't good because the cheese sauce is too milky. Didn't like the mushroom risotto at all either. The four stars are due to the burger, the hot sauce, the special sauce, and the Mac and cheese.

The girls are the beeeeest ! Service is crazy good and helpful if you have questions. So friendly neighborhood bar, it's giving cheers.

Great spot! I'd bookmarked Ferdi because I always try to honor my Grammy's birthday with a burger for dinner. I was flying into Paris on her birthday and knew I'd have to put my burger dinner off until I arrived. I'd texted Ferdi earlier in the week asking for a lunch booking and they informed me, the only day they have lunch is Saturday from 1-4 and it's on a walk in basis. This worked out perfectly for me. I'd planned on arriving at 1p but actually arrived by 1215p and no one was in line yet so I decided to go around the corner to Chanel. Well somehow, 1215 turned into past 2p and I was starting to grow anxious that I'd miss securing my Ferdi burger for lunch. Luckily I arrived after 2p and was told the wait would be about 35 minutes. I was staying! Although waiting for anything is difficult I knew I wanted to celebrate my Grammy's birthday and regardless of what city I'm in I make it an effort to always have a burger if I'm not at home to have it. I waited out front and was called in shortly thereafter. I had a little table in front of the bar and service was perfect! I was traveling alone and really enjoy cozy little spots like this. The place was a buzz and super lively. The décor was exciting and the vibes were just right. I of course ordered the burger since this is what I came for, and had the mac and cheese. Wow! The mac and cheese was sooooo good, the burger was fine too. I had a glass of Boudreaux that paired perfectly with my meal. Great service, food was out quickly and while I was encouraged to stay for dessert, I was on my way shortly after finishing because I'd seen so many people waiting and really wanted to free up my table for others to enjoy and experience the famed cheese burger :) Very thankful for a tasty new lunch spot!

I text them to see if they had any reservations for an early dinner and they offered us a spot for the following day! The burger was perfectly delicious so saucey and juicy and the martini was perfect. The service was quick and friendly. Ambience was low key and casual, with amazing romantic Spanish music. Highly recommend for post shopping fuel! 10/10

For those of you coming to Ferdi for the famous cheeseburger while it is delicious you are missing the most amazing food. The empanadas were so delicious, I could have had a dozen. Sahra recommended the picadillo and it did not disappoint. Served with black beans guacamole and plantains. Added a few tortillas and brought back childhood memories. Sahra also made the best spicy margarita. Don't just order the cheeseburger and leave. So much better than that.

Great food, service, and vibes! Very vegetarian friendly. We were able to get a same day reservation. They are known for their burgers, but were sold out by the time we arrived.

Amazing service . Wonderful vibes. Phenomenal burger. Yummy drinks and food. Would recommend getting here 15 minutes before they open

Best hamburger I have ever had. Child friendly and my daughter was in awe of the decor.

Bonjour! Thanks for stopping by and reading my review about my france trip. I lived 3 blocks away from here which was great. It was a short walk after shopping in celine paris. I had gotten here 10 minutes before the opening time at 6pm. I was able to score a table for one, the table was needed by 8pm. . I went ahead and ordered some food for dinner on my first day of Paris. . Cheese Burger - only 40 is made a day. I was able to snag one which was great. Tasted like a in n out burger but more superior. This is Kim Kardashians favorite restaurant so it was a must visit. . Foie Gras - this was great. Can't go wrong with this dish anytime in france. . Salad with watermelon and olives - refreshing and a interesting combo, wished I just got a regular salad instead. . Sample of 3 chilled soups - this was ok, it sounded better than I remember. It would be a pass next time. . Story time , I was waiting for my food and a lady stood in front of me, I broke the ice and said hi. She say she recognize me from earlier in line for cedric grolet a croissant bakery. I said I don't remember you, but she start describing about me with 2 good friends of mine, which were actually my line buddies. Lol so the lady was shooked I came to paris alone. She was like you must be a fashion designer to come here, but nope just came to eat lol. The whole family loved me and we traded numbers to meet up in LA, where her brother lives. It was a vibe and memory in my head to share about my france trip. . Overall hope this review helps and thanks for reading. It's a must try for the cheeseburgers because it definitely was comforting and just made me feel like home. Have a yelptastic day! Merci...

I came here with my friend had to make a reservation a lot a lot a lot a lot a lot a lot in advance, and also they ignored me when I was texting them in English but when I switch to French, they suddenly excepted my reservation. So try that out. Also, when we got there at 8:30, the burgers were fully sold out, and that's exactly what they were famous for. We were a little bit disappointed, but still stayed. We ended up finding like five parties after us complain, because there are no burgers left and even a party of six got up and just left that day. I was extremely shocks but also understood. I will add more later about the service and ambience, but I didn't like how the waiter kind of asked me in my party for a tip, but we didn't hear him ask the table next to us... perhaps because we were there for a bit longer and happened to order more food. Overall the food itself was pretty good I liked how they mixed in the Spanish influence but it's just sooo touristy bc of kim k it's not a MUST SEE imo... but if you happen to Snag a res why not...

This hidden gem is more then just Kim Ks favorite burger joint in Paris. It's a true Parisian staple that's been around for years offering up a perfect combination of Spanish and French cuisine. They have every right bringing these two cuisines together because the French owner married to a lovely women from Venezuela blending there love into their restaurant and menu. The burger is just perfect. No frills what so ever. It's just cooked perfect with their secret sauce and cheese. I definitely recommend adding bacon and trying the mustard they bring with their burger. The atmosphere is intimate and super small. Great vibe for a date or a small group of friends. Reservations are highly recommended and go early because they do run out of burgers. Cheers

My cousin pointed me towards this spot in Paris, and walking in to find a burger joint decked out in funky decor had me questioning their taste. I mean, in Paris, of all places! But let me tell you, don't be fooled by the quirky knick-knacks and cozy space. The burger was absolutely stellar - so juicy and flavorful. We wrapped up with churros and three kinds of dipping sauces (unexpected in Paris, yet delicious), and of course, an espresso martini. If you've been following my reviews, you'll know I must.,. the martini was just okay, not blowing me away but not detracting from the overall vibe either. I don't think any espresso martini did in Paris. From what I gather, it can get pretty busy here, with a chance of being squished on a tiny couch in the back or navigating a tight bathroom. So, maybe try to swing by earlier to avoid the crush. Anyways, went back to Paris a year later and guess what my first stop was....

The prices were reasonable and the food was great and made with care. The burgers are comparable to the ones you get in the US. The staff and even the customers were very friendly. The only drawback is the incredible tight dining room, but I would even say that is part of the experience. Overall, Ferdi stands out because of its charming ambiance and simple but perfect burgers.

We never went, but I would like to thank the service for trying to get us in. We could only get reservations through texting. This was my first time using a translator through text, but it worked and so got immediate response and a seating. Unfortunately, I had to cancel because I learned that they ran out of cheeseburgers by 20:00 and that was my intent to try. Thanks for the effort and trying to accommodate me.

Try to get a reservation if possible! The service here was actually really great. Here's the reason for a missed star, the burgers were just okay and not in a bad way. I just think it's one of those things that everyone needs to try once and maybe not anymore after that. The star of the show were the churros. They were very simple but just great.

We strolled in on a Saturday night w no reservations. Were told no at first and then she had a change of heart and offered us a table outside we could have if we could be finished by her 9:00 reservation. We took it. I ordered the burger and it was excellent. My wife ordered some small round snacks and loved them. Can't remember what she ordered for her entree. Overall very good, and the waiter was very friendly and helped us w the language differences. It being Paris the employees take their smoke breaks in front of the resturant on the street in plain view of all the patrons very normal for Paris but a bit different from America. Reading the reviews, it appears we were extremely lucky to just walk up and dine w/o reservations. A win for us!

Please eat the cheeseburger!!! Amazing!!! Will come everytime i visit paris It's a must

Came from Los Angeles to try this burger and they ran out of hamburgers. Not sure how that can even happen. How do you run out of ground beef? Anyway, this place had an attitude as well.

Pam fried tuna People only posted the hamburger and mac and cheese and for good reason, everything else seems to be small and overpriced. Definitely not worth the hype from the Kardashians, food was nothing amazing and so small of portions you would need to order several of everything to fill up.

Tasty tapas, interesting cocktails, in a tiny bar with cozy lighting and a Spanish flair

Make a reservation-- it's practically impossible to walk-in like we did, but we got super lucky. They were busy and space is very limited, so don't expect to be able to spread out. The pastrami was delicious. The frites gourmand were unimpressive. My husband enjoyed the Pistachio Orgasm (dessert) and I enjoyed my vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce. The interior decorations are bizarre but definitely create endless conversation starters.

Food- we ordered the burger (of course), the meatballs, the Spanish tortilla and fries ... all were exceptional! Service - they squeezed us in between reservations and got us in and out in perfect time! The restaurant reminds a little Russian tea room with the curtains and red velvet chairs along... it's tiny but very cool

The burger and Mac and cheese are really as good as they say. I was shocked that the Mac and cheese was better than any I have had in the USA. The place is so tiny but it's a lot of fun. The employees are really nice. The employees let us in every night as it was next door to our hotel and we just got to hang out with everyone.

Let me guess, Kim sent you here? Let me just say this is the worst service I've experienced in all of Europe, and I am well traveled. Might I add, a server myself. Trust me I don't have high standards and I'd never complain about a wait or slower service due to a busy night but this service was just UNACCEPTABLE. Let's start with the waiter mixing up our order, okay it happens, but still being charged for the wrong food? Ehhh that's a no from me. We were a table of 3, asked for aperol spritz, martini, and a mojitio, we didn't get our mojitio for OVER an hour. Then we tell the bartender and before we can even say anything she says "I don't do free drinks" no one was asking for a free drink but I mean an hour and a half wait for ONE DRINK?? no apology, NOTHING. I know the service in Europe sucks but really I've never experienced something so slow. Should've known since it's a hyped up place. My friend went through apps, and her meal with NO DRINK! Then as we asked the bartender about the mojitio she goes "do you wanna it or not" as she brings it an HOUR and a HALF later. The food was shit, most unseasoned Hispanic wanna be, might as well go to Taco Bell!

Fantastic! Our daughter recommended the place due to it being Kim Kardashians favorite Paris restaurant. Kim is right! An amazing cheeseburger, cheesy Mac and Cheese, and churros to die for! Yummy!!!!

Was so excited to try this place but unfortunately it did disappoint. The waiter did not come up to our table until 25 minutes of us being there (and we had to call him over). We came specifically for the burger and we were super disappointed when the waiter told us there was one left. So we had to share it. The service was horrible and we felt like we were a bother. Don't recommend.

I walked in last time I was there and they were out of burgers, so I left. I am staying at the hotel again next week. However, I texted them to see if you could remove the mustard from their famous burger and they advised me they can't change anything with the burger. Mustard makes me vomit immediately. I have seen a lot of good things about the mac and cheese, and I am curious if anyone can tell me anything about the meatballs?

This place is hyped but they absolutely deliver. I feel like it sounds insane that I had the best burger I've ever eaten in Paris, but it's true. It's simple but the flavors are amazing. Ferdi is REALLY small so make a reservation in advance! (text the number on their website) I made ours for a weeknight at 8pm about 3 weeks in advance and I had no trouble getting the time/date I wanted.

Food was excellent but what caused a three star instead of five was the intolerable ask of how I wanted to leave a tip. Did not hear that question being asked to a French speaking couple dining next to us.

Love the food, service, and ambiance. I like that all the plates are small so you can order more to share with friends.

We just walked in not knowing that reservations had to be made. But the staff made an exception for us 2 and had us seated within 15 mins. We ordered the cheeseburger (Kim Ks rec) and it was the love child of McDonald's and In N Out in the best way possible. HIGHLY recommended.

We casually ran into this place as we were walking around Paris and it was a pleasant surprise. We didn't have reservations but they were able to get us a table for four! We got really lucky and I'm glad we came when we did. Everything that we ordered was good and my personal favorite was their cheeseburger. The macaroni and cheese with thinly sliced ham was good, but nothing worth dying over. Overall we were happy to be able to have had the opportunity!

Finally we were able to find a table at Ferdi. We made sure to send a message two weeks ahead . If you want to eat at Ferdi , you should make reservations since the restaurant is tiny. My daughter and I ordered the burger. My daughter didn't want the onions but we were told that the chefs does not want to change the recipe and she will have to remove the onions. When the burger arrived, my daughter ended up eating the onions and told me this is the best burger and onions I ever had. My son ordered the stroganoff and it was delicious but he complained that the plate was tiny :). We had the croquettes too which were delicious . As for the desserts, make sure to order the churros they were exceptional. We will be back soon if we manage to get a reservation. I need to mention that the service was top notch . Our server was smiley and chatted with my kids .

This was one of the best meals I had on my recent trip to Paris. I received a few restaurant recommendations from a friend of a friend and Ferdi was highly recommended. I was told to make sure I made a reservation in advance and that Ferdi had the best burger in the city. When arriving for our reservation, we were seated immediately (8pm reservation). The quirky decor of Ferdi is what makes the restaurant so unique and interesting. It's quite a small space, but has a very intimate/homey/trendy vibe. To start the two of us shared a salad with hazelnuts that was simple, but delicious. Also, started with an order of hummus and eggplant chips. The eggplant chips were incredible. I've never had eggplant chips quite like these. They weren't breaded and they had this sticky honey like coating, which made them extra tasty with the dip. For our main dishes we both had the burgers, which were awesome. Really delicious burgers with their special sauce. Also, we shared a small order of Mac & Cheese, which was really good. I would say the burgers are on the smaller side so it was great we shared a few appetizers and a side. For dessert we had the churros with hazelnut chocolate dipping sauce. We were sad when it was over... it was that good. Ferdi is not to be missed if you're in Paris. Make sure to make a reservation! They honor all of their reservations and ensure the tables are open when reservations arrive. We saw everyone that walked in without a reservation turned away as the restaurant simply doesn't have enough room and seems to be always fully booked.

I'm sorry to say, this was low quality, terrible food. Unfortunately this place has been hyped by social media and unsaid influencers, and this establishment seems to thrive on business garnered from said clientele. Specifically, the fries were cold, the mac and cheese was cold with a weak attempt to reheat, the supposed Venezuelan chef did not produce quality food. The wine list is lacking. The place is full of people looking to snap a photo for instagram. I recommend staying away, unless you long for disappointment.

This place was our best find while in Paris! It's very small only about 12 tables so I would highly recommend a reservation. I would sit inside as they have some pretty interesting decor to look at! The food was amazing!! It's tapas style food - the price was a bit on the higher side for the portion size but definitely worth it! Try the corn and the empanadas - and the croquettes... try anything that sounds appealing to you because we literally didn't have anything we didn't love. Top off your meal with an order of the Churros! Highly recommend!!

After hearing about this place and its beloved cheeseburger from many, I came to Ferdi with a group of friends on a Wednesday night. Immediately, you notice the funky, cozy atmosphere decked out in various toys, stuffed animals and picture frames. The menu was versatile and everything looked amazing. I ended up ordering the Mac & Cheese, and the Mac Ferdi Cheeseburger (w/ bacon). It's safe to say this burger is life changing. It was cooked perfectly (customers have just 3 options of ways to have their burgers cooked: rare, medium and well-done). The burger was worth its price; it was simple but so flavorful. Additionally, the Mac n Cheese was mouthwateringly good and perfectly crispy on the top while super gooey underneath. College students on a budget: yes, it's on the pricier side of meals, but it's worth the splurge. If you take away one thing from this review - get the burger.

We arrived in Paris late and was looking for something to eat around the Verdome. Most of the places were either closing or closed. This place was open for less than an hour. Very friendly staff. Explained all the food. We ate chicken curry , foie gras , shredded beef and Spanish red wine. Excellent food, amazing staff.

The location is superb near the Westin. Food was great, it does take a while for service and space is very small! We did not have reservations and were able to be seated within 20 minutes. Others were turned away so not sure of their reservation process. Recommend going early. Lots of history on the walls and great memories. We had the hamburger! Yes, in Paris. And, it hit the spot. The small space encourages conversation with other guests. High marks for a unique dining experience. And food was delicious!

Legit the best thing I ate in Paris. The food and drinks here are amazing!! You have to make reservations wayyyy in advance because the place is super tiny.

A rare 5 stars from me, to Ferdi. This is hands down my favorite restaurant in Paris. Quaint, small and understated, this intimate eatery is covered wall-to-wall in vintage toys and figurines. You don't come to Paris, France for a cheeseburger but you do come to Ferdi for theirs. The best cheeseburger in Paris and perhaps the best of all time. It is served on the rare side with grilled onions, French cheddar, pickles and a "special sauce". This is definitely not your typical fry sauce. It is Dijon mustard based and pure...je ne sais qua...MAGIC! I've been here 3 times now and never diverted from the cheeseburger. Not only am I am fan, but so is Kayne and Kim. This place is authentic and will reiterate, understated. The best dirty martini I've ever had and to top it off...fresh churros in french chocolate for dessert. Make your reservation quick and make it now. All 5 stars for this tiny gem.

Glad I came here. So to get a table here you have to text the restaurant an see if there is availability. At first I was told that the restaurant was booked for PFW, however soon I got a second text asking the party number and time. Ferdi was able to accommodate my date and I for a 8PM dinner reservation. The restaurant itself is very low key, covered behind velvet drapes off a street very close to place Vendome. Once inside we were seated right away. Inside the restaurant is very cozy with vintage arrangements throughout the restaurant. We ordered their famous cheeseburger with a side of fries, and it was AMAZING. The burger literally melted in my mouth and their sauces are very good as well. One of the best dining experiences I've had in Paris. I have heard the burger sells out due to it's popularity but we were able to enjoy this amazing dish. I really have to give it to the staff of Ferdi, everything was exceptional, food service and ambiance. will definitely be back. Merci!

I was so excited to eat here and waited a whole year (seriously!) last year when we came they were closed for summer solstice but we finally got in this year and WOW. The Mac and cheese was amazing, the meatballs were superb but I was sad I didn't get to try the cheeseburger. We will try again when we're there in January :)

Going back to rate this place because it is still my favorite burger I've ever eaten. Super delicious. Someone asked me if there was a meal I'd ever have rated 6/5 stars if I could, and this would be it!

Ferdi is one of my favorite restaurants in Paris. Small restaurant with delicious items. Definitely recommend their cheeseburger and French fries. A Ferdi staple!

Very busy on a Tuesday night, get there early if you don't have reservations. Overall the food was good but slightly overpriced for the portion size that you get. We had the meatballs, mashed potatoes, Mac n cheese, and the cheeseburger with bacon. The meatballs were just ok, the Mac n cheese had a strong taste of black pepper but was good, and the mashed potatoes and the cheeseburger were very good. The drinks are very expensive and there was a 4,50 euro charge for water. Glad we tried it but we wouldn't go back.

My second time here because the 1st time they ran out of burgers. This time we got the spring rolls 3.8/5, the arrepas 4 out of 5 to start. Then we got the mac and cheese and the burger (with bacon) which were 5/5 on both - amazing and worth it. It is a bit tight within the restaurant but overall great service and also great drinks. I generally don't like messy burgers and I thought this would be since they can't put the sauce on the side but it was still one of the best burgers I've ever had. If you want to try the burger go early as they run out towards the evening.

Ok, I'll admit guys...the only reason I even heard about Ferdi was from Kim Kardashian (shameless, I know)!  She famously swore that Ferdi was her ALL TIME favorite restaurant in Paris because of their AHMAZING claim-to-fame burger.  And the ONLY reason I even daunted to visit the spot was because it is located on the street right behind our hotel and a mere 3-minute walk away.   Le hubs and I arrived approximately 30 minutes before closing and were seated right away on a Friday night.  However, the first thing the server announced is that they were OUT of burgers for the night!!! Sacré bleu!! Say it ain't so!!!  Ah bummer.  So we reluctantly ordered grilled shrimp with chips, chorizo platter, mac and cheese, and churros (since everyone else ordered that for dessert) and I must say... dinner was a catastrophe to say the least.  So much in fact that I barely touched all of the above, left hangry and continued fuming all the way back to the hotel.  Would I even deign to return on our next Paris trip for that famous burger?  Eh, OVER IT!!!!

Food was excellent very a lot of variety. Staff were friendly and attentive. Crowded so be sure to make reservation
