Pomze

Pomze est devenu ma cantine pour mes rencontres professionnelles /​personnelles. J’y étais récemment pour une soirée avec quelques alumni; nous avons privatisé un salon. Le cadre et l’ambiance sont toujours au top: un appartement haussmannien agréable et un pianiste les samedis soirs.
Le menu était raffiné et délicieux. J’avais choisi un velouté de patate douce et huile de noisette, Reinettes confites à la cardamone pour l’entrée, Une cuisse de pintade confite embeurrée de choux rouge aux pommes pour le plat et un cheese-​cake, crème de caramel au beurre salé, pommes confites pour le dessert. le tout accompagné d’un bon cidre et du vin rouge.
Un menu avec cette touché de pomme qui apporte de l’acidité et rehausse un peu les saveurs.
personnel aux petits soins: du gérant (Daniel qui s’est occupé de la résa) au maître d’hôtel et les serveurs.

Not cheap and not expensive. But yet classy!
Pomze delivers a fine selection of wine and Calvados together with nicely composed meal. I had the risotto which was very good. The piano player did his job as well but beware, if you are not into jazz the piano can be a bit too much.

Excellent last minute decision on my part to go here. The dishes all have apples incorporated in it and they can come accompanied with a cider. I had the apple curry lamb, which was fantastic. Next time I’m in Paris, I’m coming here again.

Just finished a fabulous dinner here. Luckily the bartender was also our waiter, could not have asked for a more lovely person. I started with an apple martini, which was light and crisp not that artificial sweet junk that most serve. We did the dinner menu, with a starter, entrée and dessert. Everything was delicious. Their meat was perfectly cooked and I finally had excellent duck. It is worth every penny and very affordable for the quality and service. The chocolate fondant was wonderful with a slight apple flavor. I will be dreaming of this place for years to come. Plus it is handicap friendly.

Enjoyed all my courses, but highly recommend the chocolate fondant for dessert! Still remember it as one of the best desserts I had in Paris. Overall a cute, authentic restaurant with a creative and innovative idea.

I saw some great reviews and decided to give it a try. I was not disappointed. This was the best meal I had in Paris this week, and definitely the best value you can find. Staff was warm, and nice, and the food was inspiring. From the scampi ravioli, to the filet of beef with foi gras, to the amazing tart tatin, there was not a misstep in the whole meal. Highly recommended! By the way, the reservation through Unilocal was flawless.

Das Pomze: alles auf Apfel. Unten gibt es in einer Art Bistro einen schnellen Salat oder eine Kleinigkeit, oben ist ein Restaurant mit mehreren kleineren Räumen. —Die Karte bietet vielfältige Vorspeisen, Zwischengerichte und Hauptspeisen. Und überall haben Äpfel ihren Anteil. Auch im Brot, das zur Apfelbutter gereicht wird. Trinken kann man dort alles, aber Cidre bietet sich natürlich an. Das Essen selbst ist toll, sehr schmackhaft zubereitet und richtig gut angerichtet. — Der Service ist freundlich und schnell. Nichts auszusetzen.
Fazit: eine echte Bereicherung unseres Parisbesuchs. Hingehen! Ausprobieren!

One of the finest meals I have ever had in my life. The theme of the restaurant is apple and it is infused from the homemade cider to the apple butter to the grilled apples with lamb and the tarte tatin

Pomze — apples. The dishes here seem to have an apple twist and the food was pretty solid. We stumbled upon it after not having a restaurant plan and turning to Unilocal to save the day. I had the duck and it was a great cut… not gamey at all. I think the overall quaintness of the restaurant added a little bit to the experience.
I was on the fence as to my own personal experience, but my family loved the food they had. The location is in a quieter area of the city and the streets were pretty dead at 9 pm on a Saturday night. Maybe I have spent too much time in New York, but this seemed like a very isolated part of the city; especially in terms of where other lively dinner spots are located (just as a warning if you are looking to continue the party afterwards).

Restaurant au premier étage au calme et très agréable. Une cuisine de qualité mais un peu chère et au final un peu plate. Très déçu néanmoins par mon plat de poisson qui n’était clairement pas bon (fort, fraîcheur?), le reste des plats avait l’air meilleur. Bön conseil pour accompagner nos plats avec d’excellents cidres, une découverte. Jeter un œil à la boutique au rdc en partant.

CUTEST PLACE EVER!
I miss this restaurant so much. After looking hours for a place to eat that’s either not too crappy and cheap or too painfully expensive, we found Pomze.
Cute, homey like venue with live piano music in the background.
This place is all about incorporating surprises in their dishes especially with apples. I thought they succeeded in mixing various flavors with a hint of Apple! We got the fixed price of 3 orders on the menu (1 appetizer, entrée, and dessert). I ordered the scallop appetizer, beef, and raspberry cheesecake. Not gonna describe the taste because there’s no point but they were A+!!! (see pictures for more deets).
I loved our servers. They were all extremely nice and accommodating and let us try several ciders before selecting one to drink and take home.
And yes, the ciders were delicious! :)

This was my first dinner in Paris, and I sure picked well. The name is a play on pomme, the French word for apple, and the menu revolves around that ingredient.
I started with the Hay-​smoked salmon with cream of horseradish, kumqua
ts and autumn pickles. The taste of the salmon I ate in Europe seemed different than salmon we get here in the States, but it was still good. I wish I had tasted the horseradish a little more though.
Main course, I got the John Dory with mousse of Haddock and tart apple and Daishi stock. The fish was cooked perfectly, melting like butter when I dug a fork into it. I am normally a vegetarian, but this was well worth the «cheat».
For dessert, I got the apple filled chocolate fondant with tonka bean ice cream. Yum!
Along with the food, I got a pairing of 3 ciders, which I also really liked, and it was interesting to have French cider for the first time.
As others have noted, service was good and unobtrusive. Ambience is upscale chic.
I would definitely recommend (and I actually already did, to someone I met who was heading to Paris next week)

I went to my first date in Paris here and I too her to this quirky restaurant with an Apple theme. Their cinder tasting menu is a must. We got the prix-​fix and total came out to about a 100 euros for two. This is a true gem in Paris and the pianist was great!

Food was pretty good. We got the beef and the duck. Both were good. We really liked the raspberry cheesecake and wish we’d gotten two of them!

Excellent food and service. Live piano music was a surprise and nice addition. We had 3 course fixed menu. Rabbit, duck breast w/​sesame (excellent) and tartine w/​ice cream was one of them. Smoked mackerel, gambas w/​curry sauce and cheese cake was the other set. All were good. Nice presentation, delicate and good value. Excellent bread. Highly recommend the white bread.

We were intrigued by Pomze after walking past one evening. Apples, apples everywhere! It’s got a hip look and an enticing menu, so we made plans to come back for lunch another day.
First of all, let’s get one thing straight. My wife is not Japanese, and she speaks French. Giving her a Japanese menu without even asking where we are from is just ridiculous. Next time, start with a French menu and see how the customers react! The service for the entire lunch was equally disinterested, and we only got a smile when it was time to pay the bill. I’m not so naïve as to take unfriendly service in Paris too seriously, but…
… service should match the quality of the food. And the food here is great. My wife had the duck breast, which seems to be a popular choice. It was cooked wonderfully and presented with care. I ordered the ribs starter, which I was warned was just a starter and therefore «very light» for a lunch. How wrong that was. It was easily enough for me for a main course, and the meat literally fell off the bone. It was presented on a slate with all manner of embellishments, but the whole thing came together nicely. I paired it with a nice glass of dry cider. Lovely.
Of note: this review concerns the upstairs dining room. Downstairs they serve an apple salad that looks fantastic, and that’s what we’ll try next time.
Four stars for the food, and two for the service (but it’s a solid four for the food).

Thank you Unilocal,for helping us find Pomze. This place was LOVELY and was the perfect choice for our farewell dinner in Paris. We did make a reservation using their email system, which worked fine.
Ambiance– classy, chic, slightly upscale, with a cute little storefront. We went on a Thursday night and there was a pianist playing during our dinner– he was amazing and set the mood for a romantic atmosphere.
Service– unobtrusive, attentive, spoke English if you wanted, but also would humor my (poor) French.
Food– this was the star.
We both did the 35 euro tasting menu. It started with an amazing pumpkin-​hazelnutty amuse, which we both enjoyed. I ordered the feta-​stuffed Piquillo peppers– this was a beautiful appetizer with lightly fluffy feta interspersed with the peppers which were stuffed with feta chopped with walnuts and apples– tasty, light, and beautiful to look at. My fiancé had the avocado gazpacho with shrimp– it was awesome and refreshing– the avocado added the perfect touch. For entrees, he had the white tuna and I had the black risotto– both outstanding, and again, light. We finished off our meal with a cheese plate (for a 4 euro surcharge but so worth it) — some really nice stinky cheeses as well as a mild chevre standby, and a layered cream/​fruit dessert.
We did the unique cider pairing, which was lovely. My only complaint would be that the ciders did not always arrive with each course but we waited a few minutes for one of the pairings– nothing major, since we were enjoying our food so much and hardly noticed.
Forget about the ridiculous value (which it is). This place is just ridiculously good and appropriate for a special occasion or just a normal delicious dinner.

What a fabulously simple yet delicious concept — everything to do with Apples!
And everything was delicious!
I loved their choice of French and very delicious ciders! Unique and perfect combination to the meal. They even have cider tasting menu! Must try!
Too bad I came on a night when the piano wasn’t played, I probably wouldn’t want to leave the place otherwise.
Prices are fully reasonable for the experience and taste!
I had: Tartare of razor clams and crab with wasabi flavor and combawa zests (17 €) — beautiful presentation and very delicious appetiser, I very much recommend it. For Main I had Veal kidneys served with pea pods, pan-​fried Ariane and Japanese mustard sauce (32 €) — For those that like veal kidneys you’ll enjoy this, this was a very tender dish with plentiful of kidneys. And finished with Apricot & apple mille-​feuille (the real one) served with tonka bean ice cream (12 €) — light and delicious, and beautifully presented on the plate!
I will come back once in Paris again!

The food is great. The service is bad. On top of the fact that service was very slow, when it was time to pay he bill, the waiter wouldn’t accept a bill of 500 euros. We told them that was absolutely ridiculous to not accept their country’s currency. The waiter told us that he was going to call the cops if we didn’t pay with a credit card… To us it just became a principle at that point and we stuck it out. Clearly that was some sort of a scam they run at that place on the tourists, since he never called cops and accepted our money in the end. What a friking headache. Don’t bother. Plenty of other amazing places in Paris!

Thanks to other Unilocalers we had a wonderful dinner at Ponze. Close to our hotel (Le Lavoiser, great place) Ponze’s innovative and well priced (35 €) dinner is among the best we have eaten anywhere. We were served a delightfully refreshing sparkling cider upon arriving. A small, complimentary amuse bouche followed. Our entrée, a creamy green gazpacho had a wonderful texture and taste. Our main courses were equally tasty and pretty. Dessert was even prettier, tastier and more creative! Accompanying this fabulous meal was a pianist. We were there on a weeknight and we were early (arrived at 730) but by the time we left every table was occupied. Do yourself a favor and make a reservation!

Kreatives und sehr leckeres Menü und einen hervorragenden Wein zu einem für dieses Niveau unschlagbaren Preis.

Très bon moment…
Très bon moment passé dans ce restaurant au cadre romantique. Mention particulière pour le pianiste. Plats et présentations très satisfaisants. attention toutefois à ce que les suppléments (pour un grand nombre de plats) né fasse pas trop grimper l’addition.

Hard to find a restaurant like this where food and price are very good. As others have stated the cuisine tries to include apples… but not everything.
I started with the appetizer of Crab ravioli with Calvados-​flavoured bisque and Normandy cream. Pure heaven light and full of flavor the bisque was just magnificent and not heavy as the cream would suggest.
My main course was the Landes duck breast in Apicius-​style, candied Rubinette & beetroot and apple-​horseradish sauce. The duck was cooked to perfection crisp outside and tender and juicy on the inside slightly pinkish. The apple horesradis sauce sounded bizzare but absolutly stunning and cut the bit of fat in the duck.
For dessert I have a loverly Blackberry cheesecake with caramelized apples. At this point I was in a slight food comatose state… albeit a happy one at that.
I highly highly recommend this place for the quality, service and the reasonable price that this wonderful restaurant provides.

Le mariage de la pomme et du Japon
Le cadre est d’abord magniique et tellement reposant: quelques tables disposées sur le parquet d’un ancien appartement haussmanien, certaines d’entre elles situées à l’écart dans l’une des pièces entourant le salon. L’accueil est à l’unisson, discret, raffiné, totalement en harmonie avec une cuisine qui fait la part belle aux pmmes, dissimulées habilement et sans excès, sous des formes diverses, dans chaque plat. L’effet est magique. Un seul reproche, qui né remet pas en cause la beauté d’une soirée chez Pomzé: les plats du menu-​carte sont pour la plupart proposés avec un supplément qui accroît discrètement l’addition, mais surtout n’est pas du tout en harmonie avec l’esprit de la maison. Un très léger accroc dans une maille si harmonieuse…

très bonne découverte
Une cuisine créative et délicieuse de l’entrée au dessert. Un service attentionné. Un décor cosy et agréable. Le pianiste en ambiance sonore, très agréable aussi. Très bon rapport qualité/​prix. Allez-​y !

Excellent restaurant tout plein d’originalité !
La pomme se retrouve subtilement dans tous les plats même dans le beurre !
Je crois que le menu est un peu cher mais l’expérience en vaut le détour !

Pomze — j’adore (aussi les pommes)
Une bonne soirée dans un cadre très agréable — un peu froid? moi je dirais reposant — pas de faute de goût — pas de clinquant — l’espace y est — les assiettes sont belles /​bonnes /​copieuses — les amateurs de cidre seront aux anges — les débutants auront une belle leçon de goût — nous y avons passé une excellente soirée avec un service hors-​pair (cela se perd beaucoup sur Paris ces temps-​ci…) et nous en sommes ressortis avec la ferme intention d’y revenir goûter le reste de la carte — tout nous faisant tellement envie ! A déplorer — le peu de gens qui ont profité de cette belle soirée — un samedi soir à 20H30… il y avait encore beaucoup de place !!! Alors aller profiter de cette adresse !

Excellente découverte
Très bien, nous y retournerons sans hésiter. Le rapport qualité prix est excellent, l’accueil courtois et attentif. Mis à part une réserve sur la température du plat principal (tiède mais tout de même très bon), tout nous a plu (recherché, présentation et goût des plats). Niveau bruit, nous étions dans la salle principale juste à côté du piano: l’ambiance jazzy était très sympa mais à la fin c’était un peu trop. Ceci dit, il y a différentes salles donc demandez à être un peu plus loin de celui-​ci.

Si vous n’aimez pas les pommes, passez votre chemin car c’est le thème de ce restaurant. L’endroit, situé dans une partie moins animée du boulevard Haussmann, est raffiné, avec un piano à queue à l’étage, des salles privatisables, et de nombreuses variations de plats autour de la pomme. Un pur délice !
Egalement de nombreuses variétés de cidres que je né connaissais pas, il y en a vraiment pour tous les goûts.

Apple-​themed restaurant: hmm, intriguing. We opted to go here instead of the café in Hôtel Marcel Dassault since Pomze sounded unique. We were guided around the side of the main entrance to take an elevator upstairs as my dad was in a wheelchair, and we received menus that either had English or Japanese translations of the original French text. Not being fluent in Japanese, I looked over my brother’s shoulder to figure out what to order.
At lunch, Pomze offers a fixed price (25 Euros), two-​course (either starter+main or main+dessert) offering out of a short list of options. We went with two sets starter+main and two of main+dessert, making sure to order all four main options among us. (You can also opt for three courses, which is offered at both lunch and dinner for 30 Euros.) We also ordered two portions of the cider tasting (14 Euros each), the different types of which were served only after we had finished the previous one (as opposed to having all three appear at the same time in a flight).
The apple butter that came with the bottomless bread was addictive: my dad asked for more so that he could eat it without bread! The two starters were grilled mackerel fillets with a Granny Smith ravigote sauce and prawns in cauliflower soup with Granny Smith apples. Both were great at warming us up for the rest of the meal. The prawns were especially delicious as the flavor was intense, and they were crispy on the outside and very fresh. My mom wished we ordered all four of the starters.
The four mains were all enjoyable: salmon, squid, duck breast, and lamb stew. Even my dad, who usually can’t stand eating lamb, very much wanted to eat more lamb stew. The surrounding garnish and sauce were cleared out and mopped up with bread. We spent an inordinate amount of time admiring the various-​colored young carrots that came on the side and the extremely sweet corn that came with the duck breast.
To wrap it all up, the apple and chocolate fondant with stracciatella ice cream and redberries and caramelized apple cheesecake were very nicely naughty (not too sweet). Our three ciders had come out by then, the last one being the sweetest to compete with the desserts.
We went back downstairs to see what the grocery part was about since it’s listed on Unilocal,but we only saw a very small area that was populated with what looked to be some jams and cider. I took a photo of the map they had on the wall with the various regions of France and the varieties of apples that originate from them but was quickly asked not to reprint the photo since it is licensed.
The verdict: Pomze is quite satisfying and won’t break the bank, especially given its vicinity to the expensive, touristy area of Champs Élysées. The service is pretty good to boot.

Bravo !
Des pommes, du cidre, du calvados… Le fruit est décliné dans tous les plats avec une inventivité remarquable. Le chef est agréable et souriant et, peut être grâce aux vacances, l’ambiance calme et relaxante. Rien à ajouter, c’est un restaurant qui vaut le détour…

Pomze was just around the corner of my hotel in Paris and the apple infusion theme seemed too good to pass up.
The service was top notch and very friendly. During my short visit to Paris, I managed to dine at Pomze twice. The duck breast is fantastic (best duck I had during my stay in France) and seemed to be a popular dish. For dessert, the cheesecake was my favorite.
On a side note, I had forgotten my DSLR lens cap at the restaurant on my last visit and had already traveled onto Germany. One afternoon, my coworker was approached by one of the waitresses a block down the street from Pomze. She recognized him from our visits as he randomly walked by and ran down the street to return my lens cap. That’s service!

Tout un concept de restaurant qui repose sur… la pomme !
Du sous-​sol au premier étage, au déjeuner, au dîner ou à l’heure du thé, la pomme, la pomme, la pomme dans tous ses états :-)
J’y ai déjeuné d’une délicieuse salade et vu l’affluence, je n’ai pas été le seul à apprécier cette adresse. Alors un conseil: pensez à réserver — et vive les pommes !

Un joli concept !
La soirée commence par un cocktail (de jus de pommes bien sûr !) absolument délicieux. Dommage qu’il soit si chers 6,50 euros sans alcool, 8,50 avec alcool, parce qu’on en reprendrait bien un (ou deux…) ! Puis, on monte au premier rejoindre notre table pour dîner. La décoration est très sommaire et rend l’environnement un peu froid, mais les serveurs sont aux petits soins et les plats un vrai régal pour les yeux et les papilles alors, en bonne compagnie, on se concentre et le tout est chaleureux. Le menu entrée-​plat-​dessert est à 32 euros (à midi, c’est entrée-​plat ou plat-​dessert pour 25 euros). Les parfums, les textures, les couleurs et bien sûr les goûts font des petits plats de vrais tableaux de maître. Cette soirée est une réussite, j’ai envie de revenir et de faire découvrir cette belle adresse où l’accueil est vraiment très agréable et souriant. Merci Pomze !

Délicieuses grosses salades!

Très bon restaurant, je manquerai pas d’y retourner découvrir les autres plats.
Le décor n’est pas extraordinaire mais correcte.
Il m’est arrivé de réserver pour un couple d’amis venant de l’étranger pour le samedi soir, ils ont eu droit à un pianiste de jazz pour accompagner leur dîner romantique qu’ils ont d’ailleur vraiment apprécié.
Nous avions choisi deux menus à 30euros et 27euros, entrée plat dessert, un verre de cidre compris pour l’un, et une dégustation de trois cidres sélectionnés pour accompagner les mets choisis (14euros).
Si vous voulez savourer la cuisine française un peu chic mais pas prétentieuse, je vous conseille ce restaurant!

Der Hammer. Umwerfend. Nicht zu fein und doch absolute Spitzenklasse was Qualität und Kreativität betrifft. Die Zutat «Apfel» fehlt in keinem der Gerichte.
Sehr kreativ und unbeschreiblich tolles Essen mit nettem Personal. Mir fehlen die Worte… Ein Must-​Try in Paris.

J’adooooore ce restaurant.
Dans tous les plat, il y a une petite touché de pomme dans toutes ses formes possibles. Tout simplement délicieux !
Service également à la pointe. Des serveuses toutes bilingues, certaines de nationalité japonaise (visiblement, il y a énormément de touristes japonais qui fréquentent ce restaurant) avec un français impeccable. Pour ma grand-​mère qui se déplace difficilement, le propriétaire a proposé d’ouvrir le «monte-​charge», à savoir, l’ascenseur de cet immeuble hausmannien, impeccablement tenu, qui donne sur les cuisine et n’est normalement pas utilisé pour les clients, ce qui donne de la tranquillité aux habitants des autres étages …
Pour les prix, il faut compter plus qu’un restaurant ordinaire, mais la cuisine le mérite amplement. Compter en moyenne 40EUR par personne pour un bon repas. Vraiment très bon, à tester absolument. Et si on veut repartir avec le même cidre (restaurant à base de pommes jusqu’au bout !) qu’au repas, il y a aussi un coin cave/​épicerie fine, qui permet de le prendre en plus. Si vous né connaissez pas, essayez le poiré (cidre de poire), qui va souvent très bien en dessert ! Et pour le dessert, leur cheesecake est vraiment fameux !

Original et savoureux
Un restaurant spécialisé dans les plats incluant des pommes. Savoureux, surprenant. Prendre absolument la dégustation de cidres avec ses plats. Vous aurez un verre adapté à chaque plat que vous prendrez (lotte, canard etc.). Service chaleureux, poli et efficace.

Épicerie, restaurant, café, lieu de dégustation.
Pomze tourne exclusivement autour de la Pomme.
Jolie carte, plats assez bons, beaucoup de choix de jus de pomme et beaucoup de cidres aussi.
Une idée rigolote pour un lieu sympathoche.
Pas de coup de coeur mais certainement un coup d’oeil à jeter.

La pomme n’est pas l’apanage de la Normandie ! La preuve se situe dans le 8e arrondissement: le restaurant, bar et boutique Pomze (prononcez «pomm’z «), installé dans un ancien appartement bourgeois datant de l’époque du baron Haussmann.
Raffiné, l’endroit propose à l’étage un restaurant à la cuisine inventive dont la pomme, bien évidemment, est dans toutes ses variétés à la base de la majorité des plats servis. Le cidre, là aussi dans ses multiples déclinaisons, sera votre meilleur partenaire pour ce repas. Au sous-​sol, découvrez une splendide salle aux murs blanchis à la chaux, et détendez-​vous dans un coin lounge davantage propice aux dégustations.
Comptez une trentaine d’euros pour un déjeuner, et environ une dizaine d’euros supplémentaire pour un dîner.

J’ai dejeuné d’une salade pomze club.
Délicieux, inventif, et nourrissant, un goût un peu exotique à l’odeur de pomme.
Pensez à reserver+++

A l’étage, le restaurant a été aménagé dans un ancien appartement bourgeois dont la disposition a été préservée.
Au sous-​sol, on découvre une salle chaleureuse: des murs naturels blanchis à la chaux, des tables hautes mange debout, un meuble bibliothèque de bois foncé où scintillent les bouteilles de cidre, un coin lounge avec ses canapés de cuir et des chaises couleur corail créent une atmosphère raffinée et détendue.
On déguste en toute quiétude une chartreuse de canard confit au foie gras et pommes en l’air ou un tartare de fond d’artichauts aux écrevisses et pommes granny. On poursuit avec une truffade de filet de boeuf, galette aux deux pommes ou des gambas au curry, chutney maison et patate douce.
