Le Bouchon (Rue de l’Amiral Hamelin) — Restaurant in Paris

Ok y’all so I eat a lot of places in Paris and I was recommended to this one by the front desk personell . I ordered the duck salad and my friend ordered the steak and fries with side of green beans . Ok cool right , so I get the salad it comes out way after my friends stake odd but okay no worries I’m use to the duck salad at Phillipe chow so I was still excited to get my salad … so my salad comes it’s not crispy at all … it’s more like Raw meet type of salad . The duck salad w was really bad and lacked flavor . Ok so the waiter comes by and he’s like is everything okay ? Im like no baby this salad is really bad … and he says well why are you eating it … then he proceeds to take it I respond well I’m from america so sometimes we take it back and it’s something they charge us for anyway …. He’s like well it’s fine I can get you another meal but you don’t have to yell at me like a child …. I was very confused because myself and the people around me were like you never once raised your voice why would he say that .. he proceeded to handle me in a very passive aggressive way which I was extremely confused about so I’ve decided to leave it on their review . The food is not very good at all and the service is not only mediocre but rude ! Very disappointing to someone traveling to france highly would not recommend try coco’s paris if you want a great time great service and good...

The food is …as expensive as you’d expect near the Eiffel Tower catering to tourists. Meaning, is about 50% more expensive than places just several blocks away.

The waiter will ask if you want to tip. Of course you’re American so you’re not sure. He says “French people know but we have to ask foreigners.” So of course you tip 10-20%…just to later translate a menu to see service (“tip”) is already included. Don’t fall for it. It’s already in there. So you’ll pay about $75 for $30 worth of food and service.

Place is nice enough. And the staff does speak English.

The food was decent but not mind blowing, and not commensurate with the price. Maybe the rent is sky high. Who knows.

Overall, it was okay but not worth it with so many other...

This spot is a perfect little gem in Paris. The establishment is cozy and the staff is phenomenal. The customer service does not start and end with the front of house, the chef himself made regular appearances to our table providing our dishes and an extra treat before our entree, and checked in to ensure we were satisfied. Everything was cooked delicately and deliciously, the homemade fries are spectacular, and I actually tried and loved the bone marrow! Everything here was perfect, my last night in Paris couldn’t have been better...
