5 stars all the way. We get a chance to sample Ana's Kebab on the last day before we leave Paris. Hands down to the best kebabs ever. We stayed in a hotel close to the area but its too far to just walk to Ana's kebab but on the last day during our walk before going to the airport, I smelled a familiar smell of meat grilled over CHARCOAL! Sure enough there were a custom made charcoal stove with the meat being rotisseried HORIZONTALLY. On the display there were beautiful and big calzones with generous fillings of meat and cheese.
Looking up I was delighted to find that it was Ana's food. It must be some serendipitous that we did came across this place while wondering aimlessly looking for food. My partner and my friend opted for the giant calzones which could easily make two meals and I wanted the Kebab!!! And man - the proprietor Ana is the nicest and friendliest person ever. I don't speak French and my partner translated for me - and with all the hand waving and stuff I got one of the most perfect kebab I have ever seen (look at the photo) I ate it next to the store - savoring the amazing charcoal grilled flavor of the meat topped with vegetables and it was the best Kebab I had in a long time - most certainly the best I had in Paris (we traveled to Paris frequently).
The best thing though was the Algerian born Ana. This guy really know how to bring out the best of both world - Italy and Algeria and I wish that I try this establishment a few days before - I would come back everyday to try something new. The owner is very friendly person, so generous, amazingly kind and gives so freely. Its rare to find someone so innately genuine and dedicated to a cause. He told us that he is giving 10% off on everything purchased at the month when we were there (which was late March) Which he does not need to - as the price of his offering is already so reasonable. Between slight communication breakdown I finally understood that he was sharing his culture with all his customers - it was the month of Ramadan and its customarily to made some public contribution. This is Ana way of giving it back to his customers and community. Total respect. A wonderful human being - and an amazing chef.
We will definitely be visiting Ana again on our next trip, hopefully I will get a photo with this great person along with a hug of appreciation. Ana Food is definitely a shining gem in the beautiful City of...
Read moreI studied abroad in Paris this summer and this place was right next to my apartment. I probably came here once a day for 2 months no joke. The pizza is the best in all of Paris and the staff is even better. Truly wonderful caring people. Felt like my home this summer. Couldn’t recommend Ana’s Pizza more!! They even gave me free pizza for my birthday and on my last night. I ❤️...
Read moreAmazing street food from this little gem! The Italian / Algerian twist is superb. I had the calzone slice that comes with seasame seed topped cap. I think it was about 5 euros at 6'2" and 100kg I can eat... and I was full! The kebab I had the next day and the bread is super fresh. The friendly service is brilliant and I can fully recommend this place to any traveller....
