La Commanderie — Restaurant in Paris

Starting off with the fact that my girlfriend and I both got bad food poisoning that we spent hours suffering through, our experience here was NOT good. The food was okay at best, but the pizza we ordered must have had something wrong with it because we both are now dealing with diarrhea and vomiting. This is the only dish we shared throughout the whole day.

Not to mention that it took us forever to be served, the waiter didn’t ask “still or sparkling” and brought us a 7€ bottle of still water, and at the end, we had to wait over half an hour after asking the waiter for the check to pay (after already waiting a long time since we were essentially abandoned outside), meanwhile he spent time talking it up with the bartender and chilling in the back.

Honestly, I don’t care about all that, it just sucks to spend a whole night and day during a trip to Paris stuck in my hotel room vomiting because either the restaurant wasn’t clean, served us expired food, or maybe something to do with all those mice the other comments mention.

Don’t eat here if you want to enjoy your...

If only there were an option to give zero stars. I went with a tired child battling jetlag, and saw that the clientele was mostly similarly weary tourists. After a mediocre pizza and lukewarm service throughout, I asked for a to-go box for the rest of the pizza. I was then informed by the waitress that (these are direct quotes): "We will not give you a box because the manager is very upset with you that you are a party of three and ordered only one pizza. This is not customary in Paris and you should remember that." This is my fourth trip to Paris, and the first time I have heard such a bogus statement. The restaurant was half-empty, and there was no sign indicating their fabricated "rule." You would think that an establishment patronized solely by tourists would be more friendly to them. In any case, don't bother wasting your time...

The food here is really good, we went here two nights during our week stay in Paris because it was close to our hotel, at first the two men who were our waiters welcomed us and we felt comfortable there since we don’t speak a lot of French, the food is also really good.. but the next night we went a girl waitress was pretty sassy with us, basically slamming the food in front of us and asked us for a tip when in Paris you don’t need to tip because that’s already included in your bill. She did try take advantage of us because we are American and ask if the service was good and if so give her a 10% tip. We said no because again, it’s already included in the bill but even if it wasn’t I wouldn’t tip her for the rudeness. If she was our waitress the first night I most likely wouldn’t...
