Dead restaurant - one of the weirdest experiences of our lives - and it wasn't even Halloween. We were genuinely excited about crepes and wine for dinner. This restaurant advertised they close at 9:30. On Thursday, 9/12/2024, we entered at 8:00. The door was open, the restaurant was well lit, and there were no customers. We waited to be greeted - silence. We ventured toward the kitchen - silence - behind the curtain. We quietly commented, "Perhaps they are hiding behind the curtain and don't want to serve us!" We made noises to be heard. Silence. We walked to the back of the restaurant where there was another dining area - no customers there either. At that point we would not have eaten there if they promised a free meal. Feeling as if we had invaded a haunted house, we moved faster than usual to the distant door where we had entered. My wife had a cold chill shoulder shake as she exclaimed how creepy was that experience.
We joked that we should try Vin de Paris again on October 31st, Halloween, because the ghosts and goblins could be seen...
Read moreThe kind of wine bar and restaurant that stands above all the rest. The quaint cowboy town of Paris, Texas is lucky to have an Eiffel Tower level venue, correctly on par crêpes, wine and beer to enjoy in the excellent air conditioning, or take out! If you don’t know about wine and find the names and details foreign or new, you’re in very good fortune. 🍷 Vin de Paris has its very own trained and certified wine expert! What a treat to enjoy and have a guide to help you explore new tastes and experiences. Life is short after all! A wine expert is called a sommelier, or just say Som if it’s easier and ya don’t parlez-vous français? The front of house is a great place for meetings and large gatherings, right when you walk inside. And, back of the house, where you place your order, has a comfortable seating and the service provided is warm and bright. Be careful, you may end up taking home a few new wine bottles and developing a more refined palate! Seems pretty clear, Paris, Texas is ready for a little new palate...
Read moreMust go here, both visitor and local alike. Normally, I value the opinion of the four-star reviews over five-star but in this case, I must give Vin de Paris, five stars. And I hope others find the rating valuable too. The wine selection is fantastic. I was provided and recommended a Zinfandel which was really nice. Don’t usually like Zinfandel, but this one was delicious. The staff was extremely attentive, very kind and provided great conversation. This business is deeply involved in the Paris community, and is a great place to learn about all the events and hotspots in town....
