Le Grand Bistro du 17ème paris France

A french bistro for locals, owned by locals and serves a real french food without any exceptions. The staff is super fast, nice and attentive, the food is mostly good. Try the Fish Ceviche and the great duck breast and avoid the ordinary steak which is regular and so so.

First five course meal in France and did not disappoint. Great value for 44 euros. Service and food both exceeded our expectations.

Nice staff but poor english. Three in party, one got food really quick while two had to wait 30 minutes, after waiter claimed "2 minutes" when asked about it as 20 had already passed. Two sirloins ordered medium with "home made matchstick fries" turned out to be two way overcooked, untender and dry lumps of meat accompanied with premade frozen fries you buy in stores. Failed dinner topped off by a huge bill not matching the quality one bit. I see other reviews more positive so this might have been a bad day.

Great place to diner. The food has a high quality and is very delicious! I can recommend the 42€-menu which gives you a starter, main course and dessert of your own choice and an aperitif, bottle of wine and coffee. Value for money considering the quality of the food!

My wife and I ate there on a cold January Sunday night. Arriving early (8ish) without a reservation, we were seated immediately and welcomed with Kir Royale. Food was excellent and their 38 Euro menu offered good choices with a decent bottle of wine. Our waiter was very courteous and attentive. As with many restaurants in Paris, the place soon filled up so by the end of the meal, he was clearly busy (and well utilized). We'd definitely go back.
