Au Cadet de Gascogne

Nice and friendly service in a good French atmosphere with live music starting from 8 pm. Try to avoid a table close to the door during the winter time: it gets cold pretty soon.
I had as starter escargots and my wife camembert in bacon coat: both of them really good and delicious. As main course my wife had an entrecôte: even if the rib-​eye should have some fat, in my opinion in this steak there was too much of it. Furthermore the steak is not made on the grill and consequently has less taste. My beef bourguignon was really tasteful and tender: I really love it.
As dessert we had a feuilletté of red fruits: fantastic.
The digestive was anyway a bed decision: 11 € for a glass of lemoncello is too much! This ruined the experience.

People watching at its finest– situated in the busiest part of Montmarte where all the painters are. We ordered French onion soup and penne bolognese. Onion soup (€ 10.80) was ok; pasta (€ 17) was so-​so. I guess people go there for the French patio people watching experience — coz obviously its food leaves something to be desired.

Beware! We stopped for coffee. About 6 € each and when paying bill he gave change for a 20 € when we gave him a 50 € and did not return. We were totally ignored and when we approached and pointing to the 50 € he had under his tray he tried to crumple it. said he’d be back as soon as he could break the bill?? as we sat we saw him intimidate an elderly couple into giving him a large tip. I followed him inside and stood beside him asking for our change. He was very nervous at this point and opened his servers wallet and asked me if 30 € was enough? I said no and he gave me 40 €. We then realized our coffee cost us total 2 €.

Never got napkins. For over a hundred dollars you’d kind of expect to get napkins at some point. The 32 euro steak was poorer in quality than your typical grocery store bought cut of meat. Extremely lacking. Do not get suckered in to this place. Absolutely a mistake. Would not eat here again in a million years.

Tres pressés de vous ferrer beaucoup moins à vous servir, nourriture très ordinaire,
Very welcoming, not very bush waiting on you once they’ve got you seeted, food ok if bland.

Restaurant chaleureux. Pour un déjeuner tout en simplicité, mais très bon. Nous avons dégusté un steak frite et poulet frit servis avec une salade en accompagnement. Nous avons eu une crème brûlée et un café. Le tout pour seulement 13 euro. Je vous conseille la place.

This restaurant is located at the peak area of Montmartre. Food is relatively nice, especially smoked ham and blue cheese salad is refreshing after walking through dirty street from metro station. I was so sick of micanga sellers. By the way, the local beer called 1664 is also recommended.

Serveur impoli !
Je suis outré par l’accueil non chalant et le service qui frôle l’impolitesse ! L’emplacement très touristique du restaurant né donne pas droit au serveur de traiter les gens de la sorte. A deconseiller vivement !

Being vegetarian, I had very few options to choose from.
I ordered the penne with tomato sauce – absolutely disgusting. There was no flavor at all and the food came very cold – it tasted as if the entre had been thawed from the freezer and microwaved up right before serving.
AVOID.

WORST DINING EXPERIENCE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.
Mediocre food, steep price, CAUSTIC service. Do not come here to eat if visiting Montmartre.
Should have known service was going to be horrendous by the expression on our waitress. Don’t be conned by the cunning hostess outside.
A couple seated somewhat close to us ended up paying in excess of $ 200 for spaghetti, salad, and some wine. We knew it was going to be pricey.
Waitress took forever to take our order of French Onion Soup and Crème Brulee. After our food had arrived, I had asked the waitress for some ice for our drinks. She passed by us 3 times during 20 minutes, and still nothing.
She decides to sit two smokers right next to us at our table who instantly make our eating experience miserable. But wait… it gets worse.
Since she’s right there, we ask her about our ice. To this she responds by not talking, but SCREAMING at us, «Be quiet! You’re being so rude! Don’t you see I’m with another customer?»
REALLY NOW. I was pretty pissed off that this waitress yelled at my mother, who was simply asking about the status of an item she requested 20 minutes ago. I don’t really care how terrible her day had been. I paid beaucoup d’argent expecting to at least NOT be treated like some scoundrel from the street.
We went up to her manager and complained. We suggested they get rid of her immediately. He apologized for her. And you can bet she didn’t receive any tip from us.

Some of the food is OK, like the escargot, but everything else is not that great, especially since the prices are way too expensive. Not just a little pricey, way over priced. There are much better places for much better prices all over the city and even in this local area.
My last experience was awful. My dinner was served to me cold — not just kind of hot, or even warm, it was about room temperature (and it was chilly that night). I could tell it had been sitting for quite a while. I waited for 10 – 15 minutes for the waitress to return, but she was gone somewhere. So, I asked another employee to please take care of my dinner. Almost an hour later the waitress returned and said she would reheat my dinner (WTF?! The other guy just let it sit?). At this point my date was finished with her meal. I said don’t bother take it off the bill and bring the check. She said she couldn’t do that I have to pay for it. I said call the police then. It went on and on for some time, then, she finally walked away. Ten minutes later she brought the bill with my dinner subtracted. Don’t be a pussy if some place in Paris is trying to screw you.

A perfectly acceptable place for a coffee and some people watching in the most touristy area. The patio immediately overlooks a very busy street in Montmartre, and while dining or having a drink you can watch the sketch or caricature artists making their drawings, the tourists walking by and checking out the items, and all the other bustle of activity that goes on in the adjacent square. We didn’t eat there, so I can’t comment on the food, but the location was great. It’s pretty much the perfect spot for drink and to write your postcards.

Mauvais et service detestable
Si bien placé, il est dommage que nos touristes découvrent la cuisine française dans un tel endroit. Pour ma part moule mauvaises et frites en petite quantité. Service à la limite du désagréable, un soir pourtant plutôt calme. Je déconseille cet endroit.

We stopped for a late lunch and ordered the Formule deJour which was a small salad with either roast chicken leg/​thigh or beef steak and fries. Dessert was a Carmel Flan.
The server was entertaining and the meals appeared quickly (although others complained that they had waited 1 hour for ala carte options…). The salad was good, my beef steak was cooked properly, but a bit tough. The chicken was moist and tender. The dessert was bland…
Overall it was an OK meal in a great location. Please check your bill before paying, as ours did not add up after we left. Maybe the waiter included an extra tip for his entertainment.

Yikes, but this place was super-​pricey! How can they get away with trying to charge nearly € 10 for a half-​liter of Coca-​Cola? I’ve seen some price mark-​ups before, but damn! Even the bottled water is nearly € 7, and I don’t know enough French to ask for plain tap-​water (more on that later). Anyway, the boeuf bourguignon I ordered was a very poor grade of beef, in my opinion (besides being hecka expensive like everything else).
The main draw of this place is that they are just down the street from Sacre Coeur, and across from a cute little plaza with all sorts of artists selling paintings to the tourists. You can get a table on the sidewalk if you don’t mind the cigarette smoke; it’s less smoky but just as crowded inside. There was also a huge upper level that was completely empty while we had lunch there.
The restaurant was not at all English-​friendly, which I found very disappointing, since the tricky hostess out front initially drew us in by speaking English to us; once we were inside, it was all French. We tried asking for regular tap water, but the waitress didn’t understand or was just playing dumb, so we ended up with the € 7 Evian bottle.

Located at the center of Montmartre where all the artists are painting. It was a nice spot to have dinner.
Food:
Salad — Simple and fresh made this nice and refreshing.
Escargot — good but i wish it had more sauce.
Duck — Although it looks dry, it was moist. Wish there was a sauce.
Boeuf bourguignon — Beef was mouth watering tender. Wish it had more beef.
Flan — ehh just flan
Brownie cake — it was a little dry. some ice cream would be good.
I feel aweful for the cute hostess. She was let go for seating a couple who wanted to move to a different table. The hostess only wanted to make the couple happy so she moved them to a table a of 6 which was originally occupied by 4. The problem was the table wasn’t cleaned yet. The head waitress made a big deal about sitting them on the clean end before clearing the table of 4. Waitress scolded her and hostess walked away crying with her bags. She was let go at the end of our meal =(I feel aweful seeing people let go for really minor mistakes and she was kinda cute =) I think the worst part of it was the couple ended up leaving and not ordering anything when I saw them staring at the menu before entering.
Overall, I’d come back here but then again I’m not in paris at all. If I’d come back, I’ll probably get the mussels.

This restaurant is in the heart of Montmartre and serves a very decent lunch. They advesrtise a set day menu with various options on the black board outside (roughly 15 – 20 euro p/​p) but once inside they’ll instantly hand you the ‘al la carte’ menu so be careful. You will most likely have to specifically ask the waiter for the day menu if you want the discount. Another thing to watch out for is when they offer you water. Make sure to ask for the house water (not bottled) as its free whereas bottled will set you back something like 5 euros. The basket of bread they bring out, on the other hand, is free.
But all that aside, the food is top-​notch. We ordered the escargot starters and it was amazing. We’d say it was some of the better escargot you will find in Paris. For our mains we had duck & mussels, which were equaly good. The sauce that came with the mussels was lovely. The table next to us had a concotion of pasta dishes which also looked very appertizing so everything looked very decent here… if a bit pricey. The bill came to 50 euros and that was 1 starter, 2 mains, 1 dessert & house water. But then it is Paris and all the places around the Montmartre square will cost you roughly the same.
All in all, the restaurant was lovely and if we were ever to return to Paris we wouldn’t hesistate to eat here again.

Mon restaurant coup de coeur à Montmartre
En soirée, ambiance pianiste et chanteuse, une cuisine traditionnelle avec des produits d’une excellente fraicheur, un service soigné. Ce jour là j’ai mangé des gambas à l’ail et au persil mais vraiment des gambas enfin ! Suivi d’un filet de boeuf tendre et cuit à la perfection. En dessert lachez-​vous sur un fondant au chocolat, il est extraordinaire ! Une bonne cave, allez-​y les prix sont corrects pour Montmartre !

Déçue…
Dommage, bel endroit, est ce donc parce que l’endroit est très touristique qu’il n’ait besoin d’être aimable… nous nous sommes vu refusés une 50cl d’eau pour une 25cl (alors que sur la carte et non réservée au déjeuners…) d’une moue de la tête sans autre forme d’explication et il a fallu regarder avec insistance le serveur pour obtenir la monnaie… Il y a heureusement d’autres endroits sympas sur Paris !

Always a favorite when in Montmartre. Although pricey I always love eating in the square and this was the first place we ever ate here. The food has always been great especially the french onion soup and the mussels. Be aware that like many places the patio or the tables in the middle of the sqare are more expensive than eating inside. Though desert is good, there is great ice cream and crepes in the immediate area. Bön appetite!

It’s just facing to the painters’ plaza and very nice to enjoy sunshine there. We had saumon and bourguinon with lemonade of course with some baguette. especially salmon was quite delicious and complementary baquette was very good. But I think servers there should be more gentle.

Piège à touristes !
Nous étions en balade du côté de la place du Tertre et ayant vu de superbes notations au sujet de cet établissement nous nous y sommes rendus avec ma chérie. L’accueil est très sympa, la déco classique, tous les restos du coin ont envahi la petite place, ce qui leur donne un nombre de couverts disponibles assez important…à 20h30 il y toujours de quoi s’asseoire. La terrasse est située face à la place du Tertre et le passage est saturé de touristes. Le service est assez rapide, en revanche, je suis déçu de la qualité des plats: l’assiette de charcuterie est tout ce qu’il y a de plus basique, quant à mon plat, un rumsteak (16 €), je trouve cher payé la petite portion servie. D’autre part, la pauvreté des accompagnements laisse à désirer et il faut se résigner à n’en choisir qu’un seul… pas possible de faire le traditionnel «haricots verts + frites» Pour un repas à 22 €, vous trouverez meilleur en consultant de plus près les fiches Cityvox !

Un attrappe touriste !
Place du Tertre, les restos sont les uns sur les autres et ont envahis la jolie place avec leurs terrasses, très peu chics… Le Cadet de Gascogne né se démarque pas des autres restaurants. La carte est chère au vue de la qualité médiocre de ses plats et le choix restreint. Pour deux, nous avons opté pour une assiette de charcuterie en entrée, puis j’ai pris une salade auvergnate (salade, 1 noix concassée, 3 fines tranches de bleu et 2 fines tranches de jambon de bayonne, sauce vinaigrette industrielle). Mon chéri a pris un pavé de boeuf accompagné de légumes, le pavé était minuscule !!! Addition: 45 € pour rien de bon… Bref, c’est cher et pas du tout frais. Ceci dit, les touristes autour de nous avaient l’air satisfaits…

Une bonne adresse…
Malgré le site très touristique qu’est la place du Tertre, on né peut qu’être charmé ! Ce quartier est idéal pour les soirées romantiques en tête à tête… Et ce petit resto nous a proposé un menu très sympa à un prix plus qu’abordable, accompagné d’un groupe de musique: c’était parfait ! Les serveurs étaient un peu débordés mais ça n’a rien enlevé au charme de cette soirée en amoureux…

Place du Tertrele mythe de Montmartre où peintres et caricaturistes se plaisent encore à faire le portrait de leurs muses. C’est le tableau que l’on peut contempler accoudés à une table du café Au Cadet de Gascogne ou profitant du soleil en terrasse.
On y passé une fin d’après-midi plaisante, à déguster pour les petits appétits: crêpes, glaces, boissons chaudes ou rafraîchissantes. Un intérieur traditionnel: son comptoir en bois, ses poutres, ses pierres apparentes, ses toiles, alors profitez !
Pour les mélomanes: piano bar tous les soirs à partir de 21h.
Mais né négligez pas la place de nuit, éclairée, elle a son charme.
café expresso à 2,70 ou chocolat viennois à 5,10, Crêpe au sucre à 4,5

Un voyage incontournable au coeur de la magie parisienne !
Je suis tombée amoureuse de ce cadre typique gorgé de magie et de romantisme créé par les peintres et portraitistes, par un accueil, que ce soit pour les groupes ou les particuliers on né peut plus chaleureux, ainsi par la qualité de la cuisine du terroir que nous pouvons y déguster, ce qui, à mon avis, est rarement de paire surtout en un lieu si touristique ! Les parisiens devraient plus souvent se laisser tenter par ce retour aux sources parisiennes ! Ils tomberaient forcément amoureux eux aussi !
