Salento Marais — Restaurant in Paris

Everything was unbelievably fresh - including the delectable delicate yet oh so savory and hearty tomato sauces. Tender strands and morsels of pillow-y fresh handmade pasta. Salento Marias changed my dislike of Italian food in an instant. The US should be ashamed at what they commonly pass for Italian food…I now am officially obsessed with Italian food here.

I'm a convert.

'Plat' Salad: 5 Arugula Salad, Balsamic Vinaigrette, Sliced Cherry Tomatoes and Shaved Parmesan Delightful, fresh 'Entrée' Veal Scaloppini and Pasta: 4 This was amazing. The only reason it didn't get a 5 is the veal was thin…but, not as thin as other places. The flavor, seasoning, breading and sauce - just yummy. Chicken Scaloppini and Roasted Veggies: 5 I mean - the chicken was cooked to perfection and super thin with delicious roasted eggplant, zuchnini, onions and carrots.

The tiramisu and the affogato also merit a mention. Both were delightful and full of flavour (perhaps not as spectacular as the main courses but good nonetheless). Staff were attentive and helpful. Would recommend and we...

After dining at this restaurant for YEARS the manager refused us service due to us being wet due the rain.Being denied service because of weather is so laughable, as it’s not in our control. We had booked a reservation and saw our table available upon arrival. This was UNACCEPTABLE! Ands to the stereotype of French hospitality being rude and pretentious. This man who denied us, was disrespectful. Moving his hand and neck in our face and quite literally closing the door in our face. He wouldn’t even let us into restaurant as and said we didn’t have a reservation as we called and he confirmed. They have lost a LOYAL patron. As someone who comes to Paris for every fashion week, comes to this restaurant every time, and brings new people every visit…I’m never...
