Relais de l’Entrecôte

The restaurant’s opening time was listed as 6:30 PM. We arrived at 6:36 PM and were met with a waiting line stretching at least 800 meters (we ended up waiting a full 2 hours). We visited on a Sunday evening. The meat was cold and, as we mentioned, not well-done (we ordered it well-done, but as you can see in the photo, it came out completely pink inside). The salad dressing had an unpleasant sharpness, and the greens weren’t properly cleaned. Even though I usually handle spicy flavors quite well, the dressing was so harsh it burned my nose from the inside out. Service was quick and friendly, but the two-hour wait was definitely not worth it. The interior is small yet aesthetic, giving off a classic French restaurant vibe. In the second serving of fries, there was no salt at all, and the sauce had an overpowering truffle flavor. While it started off as a niche, interesting touch, it became unpleasant after a few bites. The baguette and wine were genuinely good. For dessert, we ordered the profiterole; the choux pastry was filled with ice cream instead of pastry cream, which wasn’t a huge issue, but the chocolate sauce was quite bitter and seemed to contain some kind of alcohol. Overall, the experience was average at best. Our rating is 4.5/10. You can see the bill in the attached photo — we honestly don’t think this place deserves its “great value for money” reputation. Anyone planning to go should probably think twice.

Me and my good son had such a wonderful experience here. The service was exceptional along with the steak. We did wait 2 1/2 hours although it was worth it for the traditional experience. We were hoping the restaurant had chocolate mousse, although they didn’t we ordered the crème brûlée instead and it was probably the best I’ve ever had. Thank you so much and we look forward to returning.

The service was really nice, friendly, and quick, with a great outgoing personality. We paid €77.40 for two drinks, the main dish, and a dessert. We waited about 1 hour and 30 minutes, but it was definitely worth the wait — the food was amazing! Big compliments to the chefs and to our server Roby — she did a wonderful job! 👏

Very popular restaurant known for its fixed menu: you come here for steak frites with their special sauce, and everything revolves around that dish. Service is quick, the atmosphere is classic and a bit noisy, but that’s part of the charm. Try to save room for dessert: the profiteroles are a perfect way to end the meal if you like rich sweets.

We went on a Thursday in October, waited for lunch service in line and made it in the first sitting, seated outside, despite the line bending around the corner slightly, which was visually disarming. Service was insanely efficient and quick, and we were asked whether we liked our meat rare, medium or well done - just three options. We received a starting salad, and then the main steak frites. They came around and provided us seconds as well, of both the steak and the frites. Though there was a line after us, we were never rushed to be finished or to move on, and were able to have dessert as well. Great food. Great experience.

I heard from multiple people this was the best steak in all of Paris and possibly the best I would ever eat. With those words, it was a must try experience. I will leave the punch line here incase you choose not to read further: It was NOT the best steak and was not worth the wait. After getting in line at 6pm (doors open at 6:30pm) and waiting in line until ~7:30pm I was excited to see what all the hype was about. We walked in and they pointed to a table to go seat ourselves then service was rushed and rude when we didn't know what and how to order immediately. Note, DO NOT try to order your steak "Medium-rare", that's not one of the 3 options and they will let you know (Rare, Medium, or Well). We witnessed other tables experiencing similar interactions for multiple reasons. I guess we could have been watching videos in preparation while standing outside in line for 90 minutes. The food was alright but fell well below what I expected given all of the conversation and excitement. Definitely a one and done for me. I can check it off the box and enjoy other, more hospitable, establishments for a similar or more reasonable price. The sauce is unique and I could see that being polarizing. Some people probably love it but it was not my favorite. The atmosphere was fun and exciting with all of the energy as people pass in and out ready to experience this meal. When we left, the line was still down the block and around the corner.

The line is very very long but it's worth it for the experience. We waited for about 1 hour and 40 minutes but it didn't feel that long. The food is so simple that it's good. You get a salad and then they ask you how you like your meat, medium rare or medium. Then, they serve you entrecôte and fries. You can get two servings and it's 29 euros for the whole thing. Drinks and desserts are charged separately. I do recommend it as a good parisian experience. Just a side note, it's really warm in there because they have the heater on.

It is as good as they say. Simple, quick and extremely satisfying. We had the filet with fries, all cooked to perfection. Paired with house wine and finished off with a parisian dessert. It was a wonderful experience. Keep in mind you will have to wait in the queue, but it moves rather quickly and the food and place are totally worth the wait.
