What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Bistrot Cafe de Paris is frequently praised for its charming Parisian ambiance, romantic atmosphere, and live entertainment. Diners love the authentic French cuisine, especially the standout crème brûlée and Kobe beef dishes. While generally positive, some reviews mention small portion sizes and that the experience can feel a bit touristy, though the service is consistently noted as helpful and friendly.
"Had an enjoyable lunch on the front porch. Nothing especially memorable about the cuisine or service, but a nice atmosphere and a good way to waste away an hour or two in the afternoon while the sun is high and the kids are hungry."

"Ordered Kobe beef set. Portion size was tiny and it felt overpriced."

"Not only are the staff at this wonderful establishment extremely helpful and knowledgeable about Japan and places to travel, the food is absolutely to die for.
As a vegan, I struggle to find places to eat at. While they don't have a vegan menu, that will put something delicious together for you as they did for me.
I would highly recommend this place to anybody, even if it's just for the view."
