This was our second visit back to Chez Monsieur. And it was just as awesome as we remembered it. Get everything they recommend. It was amazing. I dream of the Veal Stew. Spectacular! So tender and creamy and unexpected. The cheese raviolis with green peas as garnish was also exquisite. The green peas popped in our mouths. Our favorite restaurant by far in Paris!

The server was lovely to me, and the jambon chiffonade was amazing! I had the ravioli main and while it took a while to get to me, the flavour was intense and balanced and sumptuous and everything I needed from the dish.

Revisiting after 2 years. They still maintain the same high quality ingredients and dedication to food preparation. This time tried their beef filet and sole meunière again. They each comes with a side dish, French fries and zucchini with roasted cherry tomatoes. The beef filet is perfectly executed. Tender and juicy. The French fries, OMG, it is hands down the best French fries I have ever had. It is homemade, crispy and with a strong aroma of the potato itself, unlike the batch made fries that comes from a factory. I never liked zucchini, but the way they make it comes with a bit of a crunchy texture and the cherry tomato is super juicy and flavorful. I actually enjoyed it a lot! The sole meunière is good, but not as amazing as I remembered, probably because it is under seasoned. But that is not a deal breaker, it is better than overly salted! And the fish is fresh and tender as before. So I am very happy with the dish. And they offered fresh made madelene after the meal. I love the madelene and since it is freshly made, it still has that slight crunchy texture at the edge. I love it! And strongly recommend the escargots. It is as “gros” as they described and so well seasoned! I hope that in today’s market, there will always be room for restaurants like this who is dedicated to make things from the scratch in house. Otherwise we’d only be left with restaurants that process half-made food. ————————————————— Really, I think the chefs at the restaurants are masters of cooking techniques, from the entries to desserts. I had the sole meunière, and the it is perfect from every detail, the color is beautiful. The browned butter is perfectly nutty, not undercooked, not overbrowned, just perfect. and they use just the right amount of butter so the sole is juicy and tender but not greasy. The floating island dessert is impressive. They thoughtfully used cold dish to serve it. This single dish is the ultimate test of the chefs skills on temperature. The chefs are no doubt the master of sugar Most importantly, their service cannot be any better. I feel taken care of. Strongly recommend!!

We wanted to eat some traditional french dishes, and Chez Monsieur was not far from where we stayed, so we went there for a lunch and it turned out to be the best choice we could have made! We ordered escargot, foie gras, blanquette de veau and bœuf bourgignon. Everything was beyond excellent! Our waitress was very kind and attentive. All in all it was one of the highlight of our trip. I will return for sure!

The service was superb by the waiter and the waitress. The little taster provided was really nice and presented perfectly. I had the snails and the blanquet de veau. The snails as you can see by my photo were huge. Like you'd see on old fossils on nature programmes. The garlic sauce was fantastic. For main the veal stew was sublime. Lots of it with the copper pot it served in. The veal was tender, the potatoes lovely and soft. The bacon added saltiness to it to make the cream sauce taste amazing. So a great dish. This was recommended by Fred Siriex on twitter a few days prior and he was correct. Superb. For dessert had tje crepes suzette. Maybe it was a personal opinion but i disliked this. The sauce was horrific but may be due to my own taste. The crepes were tough in parts to cut so even if had a different sauce I'd still give it a bad review. The salad starter my partner had looked awful and she said it wasn't great, and her main dish the gnocchi she said was only ok. I think she chose poor so my review is based upon my own dishes. The chablis wine was very nice. Overall decent in parts so 3.5 out of 5

We’ve gone to Chez Monsieur 2 times now when we are in Paris and we were both times impressed with the excellent service, the creativity of the menu and the execution of these dishes by the amazing kitchen. Sumptuous dishes, beautiful wine list and delicious cocktails. Will definitely be back at our next visit to Paris. Thank you Alexandre and the whole team of Chez Monsieur!
