It was so good we came back twice! The first time we arrived for brunch so it was our first meal of the day. There was a small crowd in line waiting and placing orders with two guys taking the orders and making the crepes. The older French gentleman is very serious about his crepes and makes them with care, he doesn't rush through it even with a crowd of people waiting.
My beau always asks what the popular items are and orders it, and the French crepe maker who speaks english, recommended the eggs, ham, cheese and all the fillings (onions tomatoes and lettuce). So we order two for €5 each. I should have looked at the pictures more and read the reviews in more detail because the savory crepes are huge!!! Plus they put a lot....I mean ALOT of cheese in it and I'm not a big cheese fan, I can only tolerate a little at a time so I felt bad that I had to pull the excess cheese out of my crepe.
As full as I was, I still managed to finish my savory crepe with most of the cheese taken out. He on the other hand happily scarfed his down. Our brunch for €10 total was a success!
The next day, before heading to the airpprt, we decided to come back again for the sweet crepe this time. This time another friendly gentleman helped us, and again was super nice about recommending which crepes to order. While waiting in line to order, the smell of the savory crepes made me hungry so I ordered an egg, chorizo, onions, tomatoes and lettuce crepe (no cheese this time!) While he ordered the banana grand marnier sweet crepe, total was only €6! We shared our crepes and were glad we did because I couldn't have finish an entire sweet one myself and he was hungry enough to eat part of my savory crepe.
The crepes here are really different from the ones in the states. It's thin but crispy. So it's really a sandwich wrap but soft enough to have a pancake like texture I'm towards the middle.
I absolutely...
Read moreCame here yesterday because I was a tourist looking for the best crepes in Paris. The Pros: Food prices are from €3.50-€7. Huge crepes, and very filling. That's all. The cons: it is a tourist destination. I guess everyone did the same thing as me, I googled the best crepes in Paris, and this came out. CAsH ONLY! I suggest they should have credit card machines since most customers are tourist. Not fresh ingredients at all. Crepes are premade. The mushroom is from the can. The old man cook yesterday gave 3 times lecture "You only say it once. I know you want tomatoes, lettuce and onion. Do I look like a kid to you? You only repeat things to children but not to an adult." He attacked me with his lecture because I asked him, "can I please get lettuce, tomatoes and onions please?" Anyways, don't mind at all since the old man says it to everyone. But this was not a good customer service. Oh, and there was no washroom at the restaurant. So if you are a tourist, and have jam packed itenerary, and you want to have washroom break with your lunch. I had to beg, 3 cafes and a hotel, until a restaurant let us in to use their washroom for my 2 little kids. And long line up. We waited 1.5hr, and there was only 10people ahead of us. And there were 2 cooks. guess, I will...
Read moreStreet Food Perfection on Rue Mouffetard
If you're wandering through the Latin Quarter and craving something indulgent, Au P’tit Grec is a must. I stopped by recently and had the Savoyarde crêpe, and it was nothing short of spectacular. Think gooey melted cheese, crispy bacon, sautéed onions, and tender potatoes—all wrapped in a perfectly golden crêpe that’s just crisp enough on the edges. It’s rich, satisfying, and exactly what you want from comfort food with a gourmet twist.
Despite its fame and the usual long lines, we only waited 5 minutes, which felt like winning the Parisian street food lottery. The staff were fast, friendly, and clearly know how to keep things moving without sacrificing quality.
The location adds to the charm—Rue Mouffetard is one of the most vibrant and historic streets in Paris, and grabbing a crêpe here feels like a rite of passage. You can enjoy your meal while strolling past cafés, bookstores, and market stalls. It’s not just food—it’s an experience.
Highly recommend the Savoyarde if you're into bold, cheesy flavors. And if you’re lucky with the queue like we were, it’s a flawless stop. Will definitely be coming back...
