Alix et Mika - Tartares sur mesure — Restaurant in Paris

Alix et Mika in Montmartre is one of those restaurants that you can’t but recommend and share with your friends. Romantically nestled in rue Lamarck next to Sacré-Coeur, the place is specialized in tartare and they have created their signature touch to make sure that they give a memorable experience for their clients. I started with the exceptional Saint Marcelin cheese ball and the eggs with fresh cream and mushroom. Both were exquisite and full of taste. From the tartares I tried the salmon and the white fish that were mixed with my choice of special sauces.

We visited this place for lunch. The restaurant is very small and very tight space between the tables. We ordered crunchy, forester and romesco with beef/veal tartars.

We would have loved to love them as we love the concept but the execution had a lot to be desired. We felt all dishes were missing seasonings and lacked distinct differentiating flavours. For instance, the forester and crunchy had very similar tastes and was hard to distinguish apart from a very subtle flavour. Romesco did not have as much flavour impact as the visual (fiery red). The trio of sides were the best.

The overall the concept is very interesting, it just requires a little more to the execution.

The service was fine but felt slightly slow and...

For all the meat and fish lovers it’s a great place. Also on carnivore or keto diet - good option, you can take a couple of tartares and skip the side)

I took salmon Mexican style (amazing) and beef crunchy. I understand why crunchy would appeal to many people, but if you’re a raw meat taste lover I’d recommend some other style. Crunchy is a bit overpowering (but still super tasty)

Waiter very friendly and accommodating. Loved the whole experience, will return

PS I was writing the review before the dessert arrived. I happily report that chocolate lava cake is also divine....
