Le Bistrot Flaubert

Excellent throughout. Not only the food is top but we loved how relaxed and familiar the service felt here. A brilliant mix of fine dining and bistro vibes. And one of the best mix of Italian and French cooking I have experienced. Exceptional wine list and great recommendations from Giacomo, the hilarious sommelier. Please book in advance and trust the chef with the 5 course tasting menu, it is an absolute win. Can't wait to be back !

Unexpectedly amazing meal. 5 course tasting was the perfect amount of food, not too much or too heavy at all. Next time we will do the 7 course! Beetroot ravioli was ingenious. Staff was lovely and quite funny. Sommelier picked 2 really excellent wines for us and taught us some new things. We will definitely be back soon.

The food was a very pleasant surprise! We visited Le Bistrot Flaubert expecting a nice french style lunch and we're rewarded with a mind-blowing combination of flavors, textures and presentation. The chef has done an amazing job putting together dishes with "unusual" mixes. Not the priciest or the cheapest, highly recommend to make a reservation online. If you are looking to experience great French cuisine, visit Le Bistrot Flaubert!

The chef is an absolute genius. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. Staff friendly and attentive. One of the best meals we have had in our extensive adventures of Michelin starred restaurants.

Highly welcoming atmosphere, the place is very cosy and nice. We tried the tasting menu and were astonished. Applause to Flavio and the whole staff. A Michelin-star worthy experience.

Incroyable!!!! definition:: impossible to believe " almost incredible tale of triumph and tragedy" The Raviolo des bettrave furnee did not at all disappoint. I was left utterly speechless yet in complete awe with how complex yet scrumptious this dish was. The beetroot makes a beautiful presentation of colour but the sweetness of the dish makes a pleasant surprise!

Good food and well prepared. Portions are not huge. Friendly staff. With wine it can be a bit overpriced. The atmosphere is "business orientated not for couples"

Perfect evening, service sympa, food excellent, great pairing wines! Enjoyed the creations where meat complements the vegetables instead of vice versa. As it should be. And they master every dish. Have eaten better here than in many two star Michelin restaurants. Chapeau!

Came by for dinner the other night and it was a world class experience. Made a reservation online and my table was ready upon arrival. Received both an e-mail and text message reconfirming on the day of dining. The bistro was tucked away from the main road and featured indoor, outdoor sidewalk and outdoor parklet shaded seating. Opted for the carte blanche menu and 6 courses were decided by the chef. Service by the staff was on point, changing utensils and replacing plates at the end of each course. Front of the house staff wore an apron uniform with a white shirt and took the time to go over each course as it was presented. Each of the courses were excellent, textures and flavors were all world class. Portions were also perfect. I'm a huge fan of smaller portions so that numerous courses can be tried throughout the evening. €71/head for dinner.

A very good restaurant. The food is really tasty. Having been there multiple times, the 5 course meal and the 8 course meal are very tasty, the menu changes quite often. The food is very tasty. The service is very kind and the chef is very nice. The atmosphere can change: it is sometimes very intimate and quiet but it can also feel like a bistro being quite loud. In conclusion it is a really goods restaurant overall with ready food and nice staff.

We went here for lunch on our last day in Paris, and this place was so good! We had their lunch tasting menu, and really enjoyed it. The service was amazing too-- the server was very helpful and friendly. He even took our luggages for us and put it in the back while we ate, and gave it back to us once we finished and were ready to leave. We had to catch our flight out of France right after lunch, so we were in a little of a rush, which he was very accommodating on. The meal was classy and was a really nice way to finish out our time in Paris.

Close to Michelin level food. Service is good too. Food portions are small so you can try more dishes. Superb!

Our second day in Paris and our second Michelin star restaurant. This just happens to be part of the Rostang group but a very different feel from its fine dining next door neighbor, Maison Rostang. Here the atmosphere is antique chic with many cool collectibles adorning wall shelves including a vast collection of hand cranked coffee mills. Here they have what is called a 'Formule' either 2 or 3 course meals ranging in E39-46 pp. I started with the bone marrow and frisee salad, which was very rich and flavourful, my husband ordered the classic escargots, which were a first for him. They were perfectly cooked, not rubbery like most places and the garlic pesto sauce was just right, not overpowering. For our mains, I chose the duck breast in pastry with mushroom duxelles and spinach. The duck was just right at medium rare and the mushrooms added another layer of flavour to the duck. The pastry was a little soggy from the gravy and didn't stay on the duck, so the presentation wasn't quite altogether and you weren't exactly sure what it was for a minute before you dug in and tasted the pastry itself! My husband's crisped pork hock and tendons was a little strange for me. The texture was strange, between sticky chewy, but the smell was even more nauseating. Sorry, but I did not enjoy his dish, but he did, so that's all that really matters, just depends on your palate. The peas seemed a little under cooked and hard, but the fava beans were good. Dessert was very good, you can really taste the wine used for poaching the pear and the fresh sorbet softened the flavour. All in all a great dining experience.

My husband and I live in Paris, about a 2 minute walk from Flaubert, and we've always wanted to try it. We took two friends on 22/9. We will never return. Being that we live here we wanted to speak some French. We are originally from New Zealand and America. The French waitress we had would snicker or chuckle when we mispronounced something in French or when we made an error. She was visibly impatient and condescending when we didn't understand something. The restaurant was not busy at this time. She had only one other table. For a "sophisticated" place, that charges a lot for a next-to-nothing size portion, I would expect better treatment. We've never had a bad experience dining out in Paris. This woman was inexcusably rude and lived up to the cultural stereotype that is often not deserved.

This review is for the Michel Rostang on the R. Rennequin.. The Quenelle in Nantua sauce,they call it something else, was fantastic. It's the reason we paid over $200 for lunch without wine. Neither the service nor the ambiance suggests 2 Michelin stars. However, Michelin ratings are not to be trusted lately. The goose liver, a rarity lately, was excellent but the dessert, a caramel souffle, was totally lacking. Not acceptable for a 2 star restaurant. Would return only for the Quenelle. Wish they would deliver it. At the price I should give it 2+ stars above.

Apart from tight terrasse seating and definitely high prices, everything worked well, with a very friendly staff, top-notch wine and superbly cooked food. A note on the poularde de bresse : we took the second serving hole and did not cook it enough, give it some time in the oven!

Great French bistro in a nice suburb in Paris. This is a small venue with a great atmosphere. Food is good quality French cuisine. We had a nice selection of steak, duck and various asparagus dishes. Deserts included chocolate fondants, creams and pana cotta.Staff are friendly and speak English. Highly recommended

We had a fabulous lunch at Le Bistro d'a Côté Flaubert! Lunch is a great way to experience their delicious food while keeping the cost down. We had their price fixed menu of 3 courses for 28 euros each. The food was fabulous! Absolutely one of the best meals, if not the best, that we had during our stay in Paris. The place is tiny, so you may want to call ahead. It was pure luck that they were able to accommodate the 12 of us as walk ins (split into 2 groups). If you want delicious French food in a cozy atmosphere, definitely come here. Will be back during our next trip to Paris.

This is the two star very expensive restaurant. We paid around $600 for two people. We, as Americans, were treated very badly. Although we ordered the same food as other patrons, we were clearly served cold left-overs. The maitre d' explained to me (with a straight face) that our Lobster Salad was "the same" as everyone else's in our dining room, although it was obvious that 1. It was not served off the presentation cart 2. It was not extracted from the shell steaming hot 3. It was a MUCH smaller apportionment. LESSON! Don't waste your money or your time with such annoying treatment!!!
