Le Vin en Bouche — Restaurant in Paris

The place initially looked nice with good reviews. When we arrived we asked for a table outside (2 tables of 2 taken and 1 of the 2 tables of 4 was taken) The waitress was closing the tab of the second of 4. We were told we had no reservation. We asked about the table closing, she said « I don’t know if it s going to be 5 or. 30 minutes before they leave », meaning « don’t stay ». She could have told us to wait inside and get a bottle of wine but She didn t. She was sitting inside not caring using her phone.

We start to leave and we notice the 2nd table of 4 was leaving so we decided to come back. The lady didnt come out. Everybody on the patio was gone, inside was empty.

And did I mention that Vincent wears the...

Vincent was an absolutely kind host at his establishment. We showed up a bit early on a weekday and he was able to sit down and share a bit of history about the wine. He also asked us about our trip ahead, and proposed some wineries and areas to visit in the Bordeaux region which were AMAZING. We never would have found these off the beaten path areas if it weren't for his recommendations.

The wines he chose for us to try were lovely as well, and the goat cheese platter was the perfectly prepared afternoon snack. Thanks Vincent for an awesome experience at Le Vin en Bouche!...
