Le Comptoir de l'Artoise

I've seen a lot of people recommending this place for the food and the vibe, so I was very curious to try it. We booked a table for two at 7:30 PM. When we arrived, it was quite calm but it quickly filled up. The noise level is medium, with jazzy background music, but you can still easily have a conversation. 👉 Reservation is a must here — and preferably in advance! 🍽️ Food We ordered the bruschetta — brioche-style bread with tomato sauce, parmigiano, and cherry tomatoes on top. 10/10 — it was my favorite dish. The portion is perfect for a starter and costs 16€. For the main course, we had the mushroom pasta. The wine in the sauce gives it a nice twist and the pasta was cooked perfectly al dente. However, it was honestly served a bit cold (medium temperature). It’s good, but nothing exceptional. For 23€, it feels slightly overpriced. I’d rate it 7/10. 🍰 Desserts We tried the tiramisu — cake-style, very creamy, with a lot of chocolate powder on top and a light coffee taste inside. It’s served quite cold, perfect if you enjoy cream more than strong coffee flavor, as there isn’t much “cake” texture inside. 7/10. We also had the famous chocolate cake, served warm as a thin slice. The portion is honestly very small, but aside from that… it’s exquisite. I would come back just for this dessert 10 times. 10/10. 💶 Price & Service We paid 55€ for two people (1 starter, 1 main course, and 2 desserts). The price feels fair overall. The vibe is very cute and romantic, with candles on each table. It’s a classic French/Italian elegant restaurant, although the chairs are not very comfortable. We had three different servers. One waitress made a mistake in our order and brought two pasta dishes instead of one — honestly, better that way than the opposite! The hostess and another waiter were both very nice. ✨ Overall I fully recommend this restaurant. It works perfectly for a romantic dinner, but also for family or friends gatherings.

Had a great dinner at Le Comptoir de l’Artoise. The menu offers a small variety of dishes, but I had the feeling that every meal was made with fresh ingredients. The atmosphere was warm, with soft lighting, good music, and friendly service. All in all, it’s a recommended restaurant with a great vibe for Italian cuisine.

We another restaurant booked and didn't like the look of it. So when we walked past this one, something drew us in. We were welcomed in with friendly staff and given the specials immediately. The service was excellent, everything explained really well and food came out in the perfect timing. The clam pasta was sensational and the special pork one was great too. What a find! Probably the best grappa I've ever tried too. Absolutely love the atmosphere and music. Highly recommend.

I was very surprised by this restaurant. I lived in the area but haven't been inside before but tonight we decided to have dinner something italian food. There's nothing more I can say, but the food was so good. From red wine to starter, the main course and desert were so delicious and perfect that is what we wanted. The restaurant is tidy and clean and nice dining lighting. Nice atmosphere. One more thing amazed me the service of the staff was outstanding, he was very friendly and approachable and expert to say for what's on the menu coupled with nice relaxing music they played on. I highly recommend this place. Be sure to make reservations before going to the restaurant as this place is always full.

Great food and great service explained the whole menu didn't full rushed or pushy

The special bruschetta was insane. Both pasta dishes were excellent too

Delicious legit Italian foods with fresh seafood and ingredients. Pastas were my favorite. Quite busy at lunch time so better make reservations.

It was a good surprise! Friendly staff, quick service, most importantly great food and tiramisu! Had pasta with gambas and zucchini, Pan fried artichoke and finish my meal with tiramisu. Reasonable price and good vibes!
