Honest Review
We are heading to Bouillon Chartier after stopping by the Franprix supermarket.
Is it worth waiting in line for Bouillon Chartier? Do we recommend it?
Absolutely!
We don't usually wait in line for restaurants and had never experienced it before, but we decided to give it a try during our Paris food tour this time. It was definitely an interesting experience to queue outside a famous restaurant and enjoy good food at a good price.
I also discovered that I can have patience when needed. If waiting isn't your style, try visiting for lunch instead. The key is to arrive early to avoid the rush - arriving between 5 and 6pm should work well.
We arrived at 7:30pm and waited in line for over an hour because the French prefer dining after 7pm. This is something important to note when visiting Paris! While waiting in line, pay attention to a man who walks around signalling different numbers with his fingers - he groups people into parties of different sizes so they can be seated more efficiently once inside.
Bouillon Chartier is well-known for its long history dating back to 1896, its classic Parisian atmosphere, and its menu of traditional French dishes, all offered at reasonable prices. I found this place recommended as a restaurant that serves authentic French food at great prices through a Google search.
The beauty of the restaurant will make you feel like you've been transported back to the Belle Epoque! There's usually a long line for dinner, but it's worth the wait.
The dining room is large with many tables accommodating six people, so multiple parties may be seated together at one table. The menu offers numerous options; we chose oven-baked sea bass, duck confit with potato green salad, avocado shrimp cocktail, along with beer and soft drinks - all reasonably priced by Paris standards. If this is your first time in Paris and you want to experience traditional French cuisine on an everyday basis then le Bouillon Chartier would be an ideal starting point.
The ordering process seemed faster using this method. My next table Parisian mentioned that their vegetable soup wasn't good; therefore sticking with their signature dishes might be best. The waiters use your table paper as your order sheet which adds some fun interaction during the meal. At the end of your meal they tabulate your bill directly on the table. If there are only two of you then expect sharing a four-seater table where you may meet nice and pleasant peoples.
It's important to be mindful of camera distance and posing, as being too close or having the wrong pose can distort facial features and make you appear larger in close-up shots. This is a common occurrence.
My new Parisian friends at the next table kindly recorded a video for us and complimented us on being such a cute couple.
Served authentic classic French dishes. It tastes like a master chef home cooked with all the fresh ingredients, not overly salt or over seasoning which is best. After our meal we opted not to order dessert since we noticed there were still many people waiting outside. We paid our bill while taking some photos of the beautiful interior before leaving.
We called an Uber which took us back to our hotel where we rested. Hopefully you enjoyed watching this video. If you liked having subtitles, 👍 Thumbs Up!
