Reviews
I chose the salmon tar tar entree upon Jo’s specials recommendation and my girlfiend the crisp zucchini flowers. She is allergic to seafood so that was the only choice there but it was a WOW for both.
I then also chose the 500g rib eye special and I requested chips instead of potatoes… in the end I received both. My partner got the signature steak and was not disappointed one bit as expected. They also accommodated the fact the delicious signature sauce had traces of seafood and swapped it out for her.
Dessert the famous crème brûlée an a lemon slice. Both devoured.
Service was 5/5. Food 5/5 and overall a big 10/10 if I could.
Big thank you to Jo and entrecôte for also bringing out my dessert with a candle and happy birthday message. Special night and will be back asap.
Last night, my partner and I dined at Entrecôte, and unfortunately, our experience was far from what we expected from a restaurant with such a strong reputation. It was over 42 degrees outside, and despite assuming the venue would be properly air-conditioned, we were seated in the only corner without any cooling. When I asked to move — both because of the heat and because the nearby table was excessively loud and disruptive — I was told no other tables were available when half restaurant was empty, most likely because we were not dressed elegantly but were casually considered as third class people.
I then requested a simple change to a menu item, asking if the chef could prepare a dish for one instead of two, but the chef refused. I ordered my steak well done, but it arrived burnt on the outside and almost completely raw inside. When I asked for it to be redone, the same piece was merely reheated and sent back. I decided not to make a bigger issue of it to avoid ruining the evening, but I found this level of service unacceptable for a restaurant of this standard.When paying, I used a voucher given by my employer, which had a small remaining balance of around $16. The cashier told me they couldn’t return the difference because they had no cash, and when I suggested a card transfer or another voucher instead, she replied that it wasn’t possible — then suggested I could “just leave it as a tip.” I found this attitude both unprofessional and disrespectful, but I let it go.Sadly, the evening ended even worse — a few hours after getting home, my partner suffered from severe stomach pain and vomiting. Fortunately, she recovered without needing medical care, but the whole situation was extremely unpleasant.I had heard great things about this restaurant and was genuinely looking forward to dining here, but based on this experience, I cannot recommend Entrecôte and strongly advise anyone to read honest, recent reviews before visiting. Of course, this is just my personal experience — but it was disappointing from start to finish.
Just to conclude that at the end of the experience they asked me how I had found it and although I answered them not very well, they were not polite enough or interested enough to ask the reason.
The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor dining. Most tables are small and round, paired with classic woven French-style chairs that add to the Parisian charm.
The food is good, with the signature dish being the entrecôte (steak and fries). Service is brisk, perhaps a little too brisk for such an intimate setting. With three maitre d’s managing different areas, it felt a bit rushed. The menu was a little hard to understand and no staff explained the menu or the à la carte options. They also did not ask how many people would be sharing desserts, so it felt like we over ordered. A bit more attention to detail would have made the experience feel more personal.
Overall, it was a lovely visit and I would definitely come back to try more dishes and entrees. It is a great place for a romantic date.
The burgers were delicious. Cooked perfectly. And the fries thin and crispy.
The cold Kronenburg went down a treat.
Recommended.
We are regulars, and every visit feels personal from the moment we walk in. The team already knows our name from the booking and genuinely checks that everything is perfect. They make you feel special in every detail.
The wine is always served at exactly the right time, glasses are refilled seamlessly, and the service is attentive without ever being intrusive. Even small things are remembered, we don’t eat sugar or desserts, and they always replace dessert with extra entrées for us without hesitation.
The quality of the ingredients is outstanding, and the ambience is elegant yet relaxed, never intimidating. Every visit feels like dining in a small French village.
As someone who truly loves France and French cuisine, Entrecôte is our number one choice for special moments and the place we always recommend for meaningful celebrations.
My friends had the meat burgers and didn’t like those either. Things would have to change dramatically for us to go back again.
