La Cantine Du Troquet Dupleix in Paris

"This place is about a 20 minute walk from the Eiffel Tower. It’s a nice cozy place inside. They offer menus that are in English if you can not read French. The food is delicious! We recommend the mackerel, cod back, lamb shoulder, and steak. On the menu it states the steak comes rare but you can order to your liking. All you have to do is ask."

"An excellent meal in Paris. This restaurant was recommended and did not disappoint. Located a short walk from the Eiffel Tower but far enough to avoid too many tourists. Staff were very friendly and helpful- providing good recommendations. Also cautioned us on a few dishes that were considered very good but are not for everyone. Provided a nice wine recommendation- see photo. It gets busy so go early or get a reservation."

"Friendly staff who are kind to those who didn't speak French. You could tell that the food is going to be good when the local grandpas came by to get their favorite dinner. The pumpkin soup and scallops were stand out amazing. And for those who like something a bit different, the blood sausage "Terrine de boudin" was very tasty."

"Food is perfect. Our favourite is the razor clam. But everything basically tastes perfect. We’re in Paris for 3 days and came here twice."

"Honestly there are better French restaurants within walking distance of this one. The food was certainly good, however a lot of it seemed prepared well in advance. The pate was dried out and seemed shop bought. I regularly eat Rare beef and here the beef is stated as being served rare. What we got was a huge lump of blue beef, with the inside being completely cold. The desserts were the best part of the dinner."

"My fiancé and I visited La Cantine Du Troquet Dupleix right after Christmas, and it was the coziest, most inviting spot—perfect for a chilly Paris evening. The ambiance was warm and buzzing with that classic Parisian charm, and we instantly felt like locals. We were recommended a white wine by the restaurant, and we're still raving about it! It paired perfectly with our meal, and we regret not snapping a photo—would love to know what it was so we can hunt it down again. To start, we had the Planche de Crevettes Roses—plump, flavorful shrimp served simply, letting the freshness shine through. Their bread deserves a special mention: the crust was beautifully hard and rustic, while the flavor was uniquely addictive. Probably some of the best we've had in Paris. For our main, we tried the beef in red wine sauce, which was rich, tender, and packed with flavor. It came with a side of fries, likely fried in duck fat, that were golden, crisp, and seasoned to perfection. We finished with the Gâteau Au Chocolat Maison—decadent, smooth, and deeply satisfying. A huge thank you to Leo from B&B Relais 12bis for recommending this hidden gem. Everything from the food to the atmosphere felt authentically Parisian. We absolutely can’t wait to return!"

"It was a super perfect restaurant that I visited by chance. White hair and beard server’s recommendations and service are very impressive and perfect. I’m a Korean who cannot speak French, but they’re very good at English that It was not problem as communicated. I’d really want to re-visit this restaurant if I come again this city. Although I don't know his name, but I really appreciate to the white beard server for having a wonderful experience for my couple in this city’s last night! SUPER SUPER BEST RESTAURANT EVER!!"

"I had an amazing dinner here! Just walked from Eiffel tower on the way to my hotel, came across this place and we love the food here. The razor clam was outstanding. For dessert, we ordered a coffee mousse with two thin pastries, it’s very delicious!"
