Les Petits Parisiens (Bistrot de bons goûts)

Disappointing Dining at Les Petits Parisiens: A Culinary Letdown Visiting a Parisian-inspired restaurant typically conjures images of expertly prepared dishes bursting with flavor. Unfortunately, Les Petits Parisiens failed to deliver on this promise during my recent visit, offering a meal that was underwhelming at best. The steak, a dish one might expect to be tender and succulent, was shockingly difficult to cut through. Each attempt to slice into it felt like a battle, and the result was a tough, chewy texture. Even when managed, the meat lacked the rich, savory depth expected of a quality cut, leaving little to savor beyond its disappointing consistency. Equally lackluster was the fish, which arrived devoid of any discernible seasoning or character. Despite its visually appealing presentation, each bite was bland and forgettable, as though the kitchen had overlooked the essence of seasoning entirely. The absence of herbs, citrus, or even basic salt rendered the dish monotonous, transforming what should have been a delicate, flavorful experience into a tedious chore. While the ambiance and service may hold their own merits, the core of any dining experience lies in the food—and here, Les Petits Parisiens stumbled profoundly. For those seeking a taste of Parisian culinary finesse, this establishment, at least on this occasion, is one to approach with caution or skip altogether. A regrettable meal that left much to be desired.

Beautiful dinner experience for a good price. Came because of the michelin guide and left delighted, the service and staff were lovely and we felt very comfortable. Starters were out of this world, the veal kidney was incredible and the mashed potatoes were perfect. The strawberry tarte was so fresh and just the perfect amount of taste. All in all a first class experience for a good price

We had the opportunity to enjoy an extraordinary dinner experience at this restaurant. From start to finish, we had an attentive waiter that was friendly and respectful, he was also competent and efficient. He was knowledgeable about the extensive wine list they offer and easily recommended us a wine that was to our liking that would also pair well with the food we ordered. The restaurant is in a small and quiet place, so the atmosphere was calm and enjoyable. There was no excessive noise. The food itself was also delightful. Our food was prepared with high quality ingredients and all the dishes we ordered were properly and skillfully flavoured. We enjoyed all the courses fully, the only complaint I would have would probably be the fish not having enough depths in flavours itself. The toppings however made up for most of it. Finally, even though the portions are relatively small for the prices they charge, we were still quite stuffed after having the 3 courses. They also served a pre-appetizer before we ordered which helps portion-wise. To be honest though, they only charge 41 euro for a 3 course meal which is a very reasonable price and an inexpensive place to enjoy a more exquisite experience. One of the biggest downsides is the lack of air conditioning so it felt a bit warm eating in the restaurant.

A fantastic dining experience at Les Petits Parisiens! The food was excellent from start to finish. I had the poultry with mushrooms and gnocchi—beautifully prepared with both white and dark cuts, each tender and flavorful. For starters, the ceviche stood out with a perfect balance of spice and rich, fatty fish that delivered a deep umami punch. What really elevated the evening was the welcoming presence of the owner, who offered a wine pairing we wouldn’t have picked ourselves—but it was absolutely spot on. It’s clear this place is beloved by locals, which speaks volumes about its authenticity and charm. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a true Parisian gem. This is why we come to Paris.

Had the duck l'orange with endives which was welcomingly rich and hearty on a crisp night - the duck breast was meant to be medium rare but came closer to medium but it was still very flavoursome. Wines by the glass were great.

We came here as we tried and liked the same owner restaurant Les petits princes. The lunch menu option of 29eur for 3 courses was limited to very few options so we took the 41eur option. Things we liked: offered nice terrines with good bread for welcoming, all starters (scallops, mushroom, perfect eggs, leeks) were delicious. The wine was really nice. The pear and fig desserts were good Things we didn’t: garnishes for the beef main dish were a bit poor. Rice pudding was undercooked to our taste. Chocolate mouse could be presented more nicely…

Seriously amazing and tasty food. Best was Arnaud & the Chef, good wine, always super attention, hot food and plates which were properly preheated. This place is a must !

We had a wonderful dinner at Les Petits Parisiens: perfectly balanced flavours, excellent wine, engaged host, and a nice music playlist pitched at just the right level to allow calm conversation!
