Café Bords de Seine

Came here for dinner and was expecting it would be good because of the 4-​star rating, but it was just okay. We got seated right away as the place is pretty big and it was not filled.
Items ordered:
Escargot — Was a little bland in taste, but it wasn’t bad and it wasn’t overcooked either. Just wish there was a little for flavors to it instead of just olive oil tasting.
Foie Gras — First time having it and I thought it was okay. They give you 2 huge slices of it. I had nothing to compare it to at the time. (After eating it a couple more times later in the trip, I have to say that the others were a lot better tasting)
Duck Confit — They give you a whole leg and thigh part. It seems like this was pan fried and it was a little dry. Flavors were okay. The potatoes that came with it was pretty good.
Lasagna — Nothing special… it was just okay.
Overall, this place has a nice view to people watch. The food is okay. nothing special.

only popped in here for a few beers for myself and a couple glasses of wine for my fiancé, but we were left with an incredible impression due to one person: sarah. sarah is the angel from heaven who was polite and charming while also being attentive and informative. we were starved for wifi and in dire need to contact a friend we were meeting on our last night in paris. sarah sat us down, got us connected, and brought us our drinks. she was fun to talk to and was genuinely a very good person. although she was the best part of our experience at the café, the view was a close second. sitting along the siene and gazing at notre dame while i watched the hustle and bustle of la halle pass by was an awesome experience i will not soon forget.

If you are a American reading this review find another restaurant because when I ate there the other day the service was horrible. The only thing that maybe stay for 4 hours was the amazing food! But I would never recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking to find food by the Notre Dame Cathedral!

I expected this place to be good, but it was just okay. I guess I should’ve tried their brunch menu, but I came at ~2pm. I had the boeuf bourguignon and escargots. The escargots was okay. Nothing phenomenal. There was a green, pesto-​like oil that came in the escargot that was pretty decent to eat with the bread. The boeuf dish took a long long time to come. I almost thought they forgot it since my friend was almost done with her chicken sandwich platter when I got my plate. It lacked seasoning (namely salt). Service was pretty MIA when I went… which is quite a contrast to other reviews. I guess it’s a hit or miss thing.

Je n’ai jamais été aussi déçue… jamais!
D’après le site le menu parraît savoureux et le cadre du resto très joli, mais c’est à peu près tout…
Le service n’est pas sympa du tout! Les serveurs se sont même disputé devant nous… Et les plats? L’entrecôte pas terrible et la moitié des moules trop cuites et donc immangeable. Désolé, mais on n’y retourne certainement pas! :(

We had to restrain ourselves from going back here every day for breakfast.
It was a short walk from our hotel and on our way to the Louvre. The breakfast set was that of any other brasserie in Paris, but the view was wonderful and the eggs that were served with the set were outstanding.
A great place to stop and take in the view while enjoying Paris’ unique ambiance.

Breakfast was good. Great coffee. Fresh orange juice. Good eggs. Right across from Norte dame and sainte chapelle.

Wonderful service and food. Stopped for afternoon wine and cheese. Returned for dinner after seeing a fantastic production of «An American in Paris».

Fantastic experience in the shadow of Notre Dame. We stopped for a nice brunch after mass at the Cathedral, and have to say our experience was top notch!
My wife ordered the duck and pâté salad, and she remarked it was perfect, the best duck she has ever been served. I had an omelet, and honestly I can’t figure out how they made it taste so amazing and creamy. More than just the quality of ingredients, it was cooked to perfection. Even my daughter’s kid’s dish was fantastic.
The drinks were a tad skimpy, for an American’s taste — but they went very well with the meals.
Service was excellent, our waiter was attentive and patient. He managed to shatter every stereotype of an dining experience in Paris.

Une brasserie que reste a desire ambience pas trrs simpat avec les serveur un peux tres acresive jaite passé il a un moment jai croise un bresilien italien quette super ouvert esprix tres chantil et tres senpactique il nous parle demande toujour si tous alle tres bien cette juste dommage de né plus le voir alors jai change de lieux pour avoir plus ambience la nouriture reste pas o top aussi trrs bacle et tres connu pas effort dans une envencion ou un bon plat du jour

Nourriture tres correcte voire tres bonne. Juste une deception sur le dessert. J ai pris un sundae caramel qui s est avere juste etre 2 boules de glaces au caramel avec de la (tres bonne) chantilly. Pas de coulis, pas de glacé nature et surtout pas de topping !!! Sinon le serveur nous a mis a la porte a minuit et demi (un samedi soir…) et a refusé de nous servir une troisieme carafe d eau (il nous a carrément dit de prendre une boisson payante a la place si on voulait etre servi). Deco neuve et sympa, carte variée, prix doux pour le quarier mais service peu aimable et rien qui justifie les 5 etoiles qu ont pu donner d autres Unilocaleurs…

Brasserie parisienne idéalement située sur la place du Châtelet. Plats variés et plutôt bons. Mais c’est tout.
Ambiance pas chaleureuse, certains serveurs pas très sympas, et on nous a mis dehors à minuit et demi. Né mérite pas les 5 étoiles de certains Unilocaleurs !

Excellent location. Just a short walk from Metro chatlet and is on our way to Notre Dame. I had rump steak with fries which were excellent. My wife’s chicken dish with onions are excellent too. Best of all, price are very reasonable as well. Both are well under 20 euro. Friendly services and they speak good English

Stopped here for a late lunch as we walked from the Louvre over to Notre Dame. Our waiter was a friendly gentleman who was constantly joking around. He spoke pretty good English as well, so we had no problems ordering.
My travel companion had their mussels and fries, which was surprisingly fresh and delicious. My wife had their hamburger, which while expensive at 16 euros, was absolutely fantastic. I ordered their duck confit, which was cooked well but relatively bland and lacked flavor. I would have given them 5 stars had their duck been more flavorful…
Also, they have free wifi here.

Based on reviews of others, we stopped here for dinner. For the price, we had a great dinner. We split a salad entrée between the four of us, the vegetable salad. Absolutely delicious. That was followed by plats of mussels, rump steak, and veal. All very nicely done. Wait service was attentive. We would definitely go back again for the quality of the food. My husband is very picky and he rates this well!

I would do a 5 star review if it weren’t for the gambas (grilled shrimp skewers) that I ordered. It’s the most expensive on their menu at 19 euros which was reasonable but not palatable. The sauce that came with it did help, so it was ok. What amazed me was the duck confit; serving was good considering its in a touristy area and the price which is about 14 euros. My kids really loved the pizza which was comparable to a medium size pizza unlike another café we went to by the louvre which cost about the same for a slice. Overall a good experience as service was good too so I left extra coins which was not normal in paris!

It’s really hard to pick a café in Paris, with all the hustle and bustle of tourist places. So when we were walking away from the islands area along the river and we came across this place, we thought we would give it a try.
Firstly, the service was fantastic. Our waiter was lovely. Even though i tried to speak french, we mainly conversed in English, and he also helped me out with some french.
The food was actually really good! Husband ordered the baked muscles. He claims they are the best he has had in a while. I ordered the duck confit which was really yummy too. The potatoes were so good!
I would recommend this place based on the food and the lovely staff who characterised our lunch.

Vraiment sympa de s’y poser et boire un verre ou dejeuner entre amis. Cependant il y a souvent du monde et il est difficile de sy trouver une place. Par contre une fois bien installé on est vraiment bien au soleil :)

I think its a must see and must do the bateau trip. Its a diferent view of the same city. and u are in the middle of it. magnificent!

also, romantiker, mal hergehört! oooops — romantikerinnen natürlich auch — smile…
ich sag euch was — hätte nie gedacht, dass mich paris und die seine so überzeugen würden als location für einen schönen abend zu zweit. ja, ehrlich! paris, riesenstadt, paris trois mille, gare d’ austerlitz, montparnasse, alles supercool. aber die seineufer an einem lauen sommerabend, mit oder ohne boot, es wird stiller, die wellen plätschern, seufz…

Fortement déconseillé
Après avoir vu un spectacle (décembre 2010) en famille (7 adultes), nous avons voulu aller prendre un verre. Il était 23h30. On nous a installés à l’étage. Nous étions les seuls. Le service était déplorable, bières à moitié remplies, 15 min pour se faire servir. A minuit, un serveur est venu nous dire qu’il fallait partir car ils fermaient. Nous n’avions pas terminé nos verres. Il est revenu 5 min après pour nous presser. Au moment de partir, mon beau-​père a expliqué à l’équipe de service aimablement que ce n’était pas correct d’accueillir des clients pour les virer ½ heure après. Le comble: on s’est fait engueulé. Un de ses serveurs nous a même poursuivi dans la rue, il cherchait la bagarre. Bref, ça nous a gâché notre soirée. C’est clairement un bar à touriste sans patron. PS: en plus très cher.

A éviter absolument !
Service très peu chaleureux et moyennement rapide, pizzas pas terribles pour le prix, mousse au chocolat tournée au goût de vinaigre et dame blanche sans sauce chocolat… A part la superbe vue sur les quais de seine, je né vois pas pourquoi y retourner !

Lugar pra caminhar olhando o Rio, as pessoas que passam, que fazem esportes, que andam de Skates, bicicletas ou de Patins…

No cruisePick a rainy day and instead of staying indoors, put your rainy day shoes, raincoat and umbrella and walk along the seine riverit gives you a whole new view of what Paris is all about.

Cruise along the Seine River and find Paris like never before.
The only annoying things are the tourists though, who stand up all the time and try to record the whole cruise, blocking sights. You just have to find a great seat.
Excellent trip for EUR8 onwards, and extremely romantic at night. It is freezing in the winter though, but if you’re strong, you can sit outside (everyone fled inside) and have a clear view of everything.
My suggestion: go around 6.30. You’ll get a glimpse of sunset, a nice view of the right bank and in the return trip, you get a clear night shot of the exploding Eiffel.

direkt an der Seine befinden sich die Bouquinisten, die kleinen Händler die Portraits anfertigen mit Holzkohle oder Lteratur in neuer und gebrauchter Form zum Verkauf anbieten, man genießt den typisch französischen Charme mit einme wunderbaren Blick auf die Ile de la Cité und Notre Dame de Paris, ideal zum schlendern verweilen einfach mal die Seele baumeln lassen

Die Quais sind nicht nur für Touristen das Herz dieser Stadt. Hier findet oftmals das wahre Pariser Leben statt. Oder zumindest das, was man für die Touristen als solches präsentieren könnte, ohne sich allzusehr von der Wahrheit zu entfernen.
Neben den bereits erwähnten Bouquinisten sollte man vor allem nach Musikern Ausschau halten. Mit ein wenig Glück ist es so möglich, direkt an der Seine einen Tango zu tanzen. Die Romantiker unter uns wären an dieser Stelle restlos befriedigt, und auch der durchschnittlich unromantische Mann kann sich dem kaum verschließen — wenn er sich denn das Tanzen traut.
Im übrigen lohnt es sich durchaus auch, die Ufer mal vom Schiff aus zu betrachten, aber das sollte lieber Thema in einem anderen Artikel sein.
Die Quais — Pflicht beim Parisbesuch. Fünf Sterne!

Geht man an den Kaimauern entlang trifft man auf die bouquinistes.
Diese Buchhändler bieten in sehr alten, wackeligen abschliessbaren Kisten, vor eventuellem Regen geschützt, ihre Kostbarkeiten an. Das können alte Bücher, alte Fotos oder Poster, Nachdrucke von alten Playboyausgaben, Postkarten und so etwas sein.
Die meisten gibt es an der Rive Gauche zwischen dem Quai de la Tournelle und dem Quai Malaquais. Am Quai St-​Michel gibt es sehr viele Händler, die Briefmarken anbieten, Am Quai de Montebello hat man sich auch auf alte Stiche spezialisiert. Sucht man alte Taschenbücher oder frühe Kino– und Theaterkritiken ist man am Quai de la Tournelle richtig.

Vieux Châtelet
Déco retro mais viandes et vins de qualités. Le personnel est jeune sympa et très pro. Des soirées rugby y sont organisées avec «banda». On peut même y croiser des vedettes. Bref, ils se foutent pas de nous; le must de la brasserie à la française.

Bonne ambiance
Tres très bon café restaurant place du chatelet avec une déco assez rétro mais reussie. L’endroit est convivial souvent plein surtout le soir en attendant d’aller au théatre. Les prix sont un tout petit peu élevés mais bon. On regretera juste le service qui est trop distant des clients.
