The rib eye was a big portion but not as tender as i expected it to be... the sea bass and duck confit were sooo good

Wife and I dined at Le Petit Chatelet on 10/22/24. We each had the sautéed. Mushroom appetizer and the veal main course. We both agreed it was our best meal during our 4 day stay in Paris. Veal was tender and delicious with an excellent sauce. Mushrooms were sautéed perfectly. House white was also excellent. Unfortunately, we can't recall the name of our delightful waitress. She patiently answered our questions and translated the menu. Her service was first rate. We highly recommend this great little restaurant across the Seine from the Cathedral de Notre Dame. Ask to be seated on the second floor in front of one of the windows facing the river. You will not be disappointed.

We were out looking for dinner and happened to find this beautiful hidden gem. Our food was phenomenal. The house made foil gras was so smooth and flavorful, probably the best we have had. The steak was beautiful cooked and very well seasoned. It was being cooked in a little fireplace in the dining room area. Such a nice little touch. Sea bass and scallop was perfectly goes well with the butter sauce. Staffs are extremely nice and helpful especially with the language barrier. Definitely will be back for another round before going back home.

There are a lot of bistros in this area. If you are by Notre Dame you should absolutely come! Classic French bistro menu that is across the street from Notre dame. The food is incredible, it will not disappoint!

Nice cozy restaurant not meant for big parties. The staff were very friendly. Every dish we ordered was delicious. The only ding is the proteins both lamb and ribeye were cooked unevenly. Some parts were more chewy than others but the flavor was nonetheless excellent. Highly recommended.

This tiny place near Notre Dame and Shakespeare and Co felt a bit touristy for me. Location, obviously makes it a spot. It's an amazing old building and the dining rooms are lovely if not cramped AF. The food was good enough, not great. But I enjoyed our lunch and the service was sweet.

Came here for my birthday and had an excellent time. I was a little worried eating out with our 2-year-old and 5-year-old, but the staff at Le Petit Châtelet were very helpful and accommodating. It's a very cozy restaurant with a big fire going in the back where they grill the steaks. We started with the petit chèvre tart, which was savory and delicious. My husband ordered the fire grilled steak, I ordered the duck confit, we got the chicken breast for our kids to share. The duck confit ended up being the hit of the night. Our kids ended up eating most of mine. The chicken was dry and not very flavorful. Our server recommended a chateuneuf du pape to pair with dinner and it was the perfect compliment. I don't remember what we got for dessert but it was fabulous.

My in-laws recommended we come here for dinner. If you ever wanted to experience eating leisurely out on the street while watching people stroll by this is the perfect place. It gets crowded very fast. We got there just as they started dinner service. They close after 2:30PM and open for dinner at 7PM. We got there right at 6:59 and people were already being seated. We managed to snag a table and a black board menu was placed right to the side of us as well as two laminated menus. They have a prefix menu that was perfect for me. Appetizer, entree and dessert for a reasonable price. You can pick any appetizer off the menu but you only get the choice of the entrees that were starred. So I got the pork but I really wanted the Duck confit. My husband who didn't want a lot of food so opted to just get an entree graciously ordered the duck for me and took my pork. We split the appetizer which was prosciutto and melon. The melon was juicy and sweet which went very well with the salty meat. We also split the crepes with grand mariner which was lit on fire. It was sweet and the alcohol was very strong. My husband enjoyed his pork medallions. The sauce on it was great. My duck confit was delicious. Tender, well seasoned, and the sauce was so good that I made sure I used the bread to sop up any remainder. The complementary bread was crust on the outside and chewy on the inside. The house white wine was pretty good, very dry. Props to the waiters too. He spoke French but as soon as he saw we didn't he spoke English with a British accent. Another waiter took over later and he also spoke perfect English and apparently has traveled all over including New York. Everything was great just be aware that time passes differently for meals. They are super slow with presenting the check. Even after asking we waited a while, it's like they don't want us to leave. It's typical for meals to last over an hour and half. Plan accordingly.

At the recommendation of management at Hotel Notre Dame, we stopped by for dinner on our first night in Paris. As starters, we had the escargot and beef tartare with potatoes and salad. Very generous portions, so generous that we ended up cancelling our main entrees, as it would have been too much food. The escargot was served very differently: in a broth or soup with mushrooms and a puff pastry on top. I loved it; boyfriend wanted traditional escargot with the herb butter. I thought the beef tartare was excellent, but boyfriend was looking for something more traditional. We shared a nice bottle of French red wine, and had the dessert, which was cheese with a tart fruit sauce on top of it and fresh mint. A colorful presentation, but neither of us liked the dessert very much - too tart. Not terrible, just different. The servers were friendly and charming while accommodating our insufficient amount of French speaking skills. Solid bistro food adjacent to Hotel Notre Dame.

The vibe is hip bistro w/ live music and bustling foot traffic! 4.75 Stars out of 5! Ms. Odile, resembling a young Catherine Deneuve, warmly greeted us! She created an area for us by adjoining two tables and deployed a wall to stop the wind! (It was built in and ready to go! Haha!) Ms. Lou took our order! She had the vibe of a young Rosie McGowan. She was quite attentive! Deftly changing out the utensils to reflect the dishes! Beaucoup de jolie femmes à Paris! The Sea Bass & Scallops was divine! Thanks for recommending the dish, Ms. Odile! It was a truly a duo of delish! The cream sauce! The cream sauce was great on bread! But the Filet Mignon was perfectly Well-Done; not Medium Rare as ordered. Ergo, 4.75/5 stars! However, it was still deliciously satisfying! Layered potatoes were fab. Delicious! Just love biting down on steak! The Breaded Chicken Breast was fabulous! It was moist and flavorful! The rice was excellent! And what meal is complete without caffeine replenishment! Deliciously refreshing Coca Cola offering 594 kJ of energy. Ms. Odile took our order for dessert! And Maxim delivered the Crepes Grand Marnier & Profiteroles w/ Ice Cream! Perfect way to end a fab meal! Would order everything again! Woohoo!
