Le Comptoir par Yves Camdeborde

I was underwhelmedThe food was disappointing and took long to come out and the service was not great (to be expected but still).

This is a very popular place with tourists so make reservations if you want to go (we called and they speak fluent English). The staff is super friendly

Without a reservation, we went for an early-ish dinner. Husband had steak tartare and I had poitrine de cochon, which was described as being crunchy and soft. Indeed, it was both, as well as being tasty. It was served on a bed of peas. Delicious.

We eat well and the dishes served come out of the ordinary. very pleasant and professional service. a wait to have a table, but it's fast. a good time of Parisian bistro, but a big flat on the size of the outer tables that are too small. Too bad. otherwise very correct together.

Summer food is a delight at this Odeon area bistro across from Hibou. The melon with prosciutto was huge and perfect and the Caesar salad came with nice planks of roasted chicken. The house white was tasty. And the bread is superb and arrived warm. We were not lucky enough to snag a sidewalk table, but indoors was fine. Service is dazzlingly quick and helpful.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in the World but yes it has lost a step or 2. Most often I dine casually next door now as the the food here is now just ordinary. Which is not to say it is bad it is just not the revelatory gastro bistro love fest Yves developed at La Regalade and continued here. The Hotel is still excellent and we still stay at least once a year.

If you want real and good French cuisine, this is the place to go. each dish is amazing, prices are more than reasonable and the wine card is really impressive, even if you drink glass. the place in itself is small, the tables are tiny and everyone is a few centimetres from each other, but it is the charm of a real French bistro. There are no reservations during the day, just wait online and be patient. service is bad enough, but the quality of food compensates.

1st time in 2016, 2nd in 2017. The place is typically Parisian, it's pretty. the server is professional and not unpleasant. The kitchen is of quality but it's too expensive. this Tuesday noon 78€ to 2 -:1 single entry: paste in crust -2 dishes: beef daube and paved with calf-not dessert-2 glasses of red (8€ unit -)!1 only coffee (3€)The kitchen is good but remains in the way at these prices (no formula.) without big surprise nevertheless, but we come to look for tradition, the terroir and it is successful. Customers for this type of establishment exist and it is so much better for everyone.Perso, I will not return to my initiative it is certain. so many small structures and talented chefs to...

Le Comptoir has long been one of the great tables in Paris, with a line out front. There wasn 't a line last night, which was surprising, but as the wildly mediocre dinner was served, we understood why. We asked our waitress what had changed. Turns out the chef sold it last summer, and is focusing on his EXCELLENT two tapas bars next door, where we had had a drink first, and were wishing we had stayed. My frisee salad was straight out of a bag, and over vinegary, and the poached egg was hard-boiled. My main, which I imagined to be a plate of beautiful Iberian ham, like you get in Spain, was a mountain of shredded--I mean shredded--low-grade cured ham, with two small spears of grocery-store l...
