Comptoir de l'Arc

They took a special request in the order and made a dish that was not on the menu. I recommend it.

The food was okay, could have been better. The service was really nice.

We came for a late lunch. Service was sub par and the food was horrendous. The fish tasted stale and almost microwaved. The chicken in the salad was tough and overcooked and the vegetables in the salad didn’t seemed fresh too.

Ordered the chicken paillard and the rigatoni. The paillard was tasteless. The rigatoni was worse. The fries were delicious. There was also a mouse running around the dining room while we ate. Disappointing meal night.

Full of locals, open late, authentic cuisine, great value. Real traditional bistro vibe, nice view of the street. Amazing service: we ordered a wine that we ended up not liking and they worked with us to switch it out to one more suited to our taste. The staff is attentive and friendly. I got the entrecôte with fries and it was a quality cut, generous portion, served with a rich pepper sauce. The fries could use a bit more colour and crisp, but it's a small detail. I'd like to see more vegetarian options beyond pasta; my wife had the same cream and truffles pasta earlier for lunch and even though it was better here, there was no other option for her, and she had to eat the same dish twice in the same day - kind of a bummer when you're travelling and wanting to try new things. Highly recommended for anyone around Arc de Triomphe that doesn't want to fall into a tourist trap! This place is the real deal!
