Café des Dames — Restaurant in Paris

Wait staff seemed to immediately dislike me once they learned my French is weak. Dismissive attitude, and when I asked for a water, she defaulted to the pricy bottled variety. This may be de rigueur in Paris, but I think it’s bad form to not even ask if I mean tap or bottled. They gave me what had to be the chewiest steak in the house along with what was probably the dullest knife. Couldn’t even chew up the last bite—had to ditch it in my napkin (which I HATE doing, because it seems very rude, but I chewed this thing for minutes and still almost choked on it). I gave this place two stars because the locals there seemed to like it. For me, though, I definitely won’t be back. I can pick up a steak from the Monoprix around the corner and make myself a better meal...

A very typical Parisian Bar & Cafe on a well trafficked street corner. With a classic frontage of half a dozen tables facing the street under a retractable canopy and somewhat retro styling inside there's no mistaking this as a local French Cafe.

The menu is only available in French but simple enough to be easily understood and covers all bases. The food is also simple, tasty and reasonably priced.

Service is friendly and prompt and clearly enough to engage both locals and tourists alike as during our meal the kerbside tables were never empty for more than a couple of minutes.

While not a destination restaurant if you are in the area then this is worth stopping in for a...

By far THE WORST RESTAURANT/CAFE experience of my life! the BALD HEADED waiter has the nastiest attitude toward foreigners who doesnt speak french well. He blatantly talked disrespecfully about me in front of me to anotehr cowoker and threw the cup of coffee on the table while mumbling some profanity in french. Not to mention the cup of coffee was extrememly dirty when he brought out to serve me. The place is so dirty. I can smell the mold in that place ! How is this place still in bussiness. I immeadiately left. RACIST and CLASSISISM is their message to their customers seem like.

100% not recommend...
