Chez Joy — Restaurant in Paris

Really disappointing experience at Chez Joy. The pho was watered down, and the portion size was so small we had to double check if it was actually the large. I’ve had pho in many different countries, and this one would be mediocre at best—and that’s being generous.

What really bothered me was how misleading the service was. The female server recommended the tom yum soup and enthusiastically told me she could give me some noodles to make it more like a meal. She said it so casually and kindly that it sounded like a thoughtful gesture, as if she was doing me a favour—not something I’d be charged for. I even mentioned that I don't usually eat noodles because of a health condition, which was the reason I didn’t order the pho in the first place. I agreed to take just a tiny amount.

There was no mention of an extra charge, and when the bill came and I asked about it, she just said “noodles” and walked away. I was charged for what looked like 10 strands of noodles. It felt sneaky and dishonest.

To make things worse, the bean sprouts served with the pho were wilted and rotting at the ends. I was honestly surprised other diners were eating them— probably unfamiliar with what fresh sprouts look like. To be fair, most people around us were ordering chicken and rice, not pho, which might explain the higher rating.

Between the deceptive upsell, low-quality ingredients, and watered-down pho, I wouldn’t return. Paris has far better and more authentic Vietnamese...

Authentic, modern Vietnamese food that bursts with flavor in every bite. The portions are just right - filling and make you crave for more.

They offer special lunch and dinner menus that are an absolute steal: starter, main, and dessert for just 15 EUR! Fresh ingredients, and a warm, friendly atmosphere make it feel like a cozy, family-run spot.

Service is welcoming, and the whole experience leaves you satisfied yet already thinking about your next visit. Definitely...

Souvenir d'enfance des raviolis vietnamiens et pour sûr sont très bons, par contre le bobun au poulet (poulet sauté et revenu avec des condiments au minimum) n'a mais alors aucun interêt. Poulet bouilli, comme pour une assiette de viandre froide, la diff en assiette anglaise le poulet est du blanc avec du goût. Là c'est une espèce de fine escalope insipide (pareil pour la garniture, vermicelle de riz insipide et légumes tristouilles et une boîte à emporter, à moitié rempli, y a pas que les auvergnats et aveyronnais qui sont radins :) ), l'endroit est propre certes, il y a des choses bonnes, mais tout n'est pas au top, alors la note est sûrement donnée par des employés de bureau qui sont contents de leur tarif pour le midi et qui ne sont pas très regardant sur la qualité intégrale des mets à déguster. En clair ce bobun est une insulte à la cuisine asiatique dans son ensemble. Pour moi c'est Next.

PS : Pour les septiques sur mon avis, voir Olivier Descoins (5 ème des avis les plus bas) il y a 4 ans (décidement la remise en question n'a pas cours dans cette maison)
