  4.3 – 1,254 reviews   • French restaurant

Social Profile:

Situé en plein coeur de Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Allard est l’un des derniers vrais bistrots de Paris. Le restaurant reste marqué encore aujourd’hui par l’esprit de Marthe Allard, mère cuisinière qui fonda la maison en 1932. Allard c’est avant tout l’histoire d’une paysanne bourguignonne qui monte à Paris avec des recettes de famille. Depuis sa création, le restaurant Allard propose une cuisine de tradition, influencée par l’origine bourguignonne de Marthe et Marcel, mais aussi par la richesse des autres terroirs régionaux.

Old-school bistro offering elevated, traditional French dishes & wines in a warm atmosphere.

Wonderful lunch at this traditional Paris bistro. Classic French dishes prepared to decadent standard. I still savor the duck with olives and frog legs which were divine. Excellent wine selection also with knowledgeable staff.

The Alain Ducasse owned Allard, is one of those timeless Left Bank institutions that seem to have captured the essence of old Paris without trying. I started with escargots, rich with garlicky parsley butter, followed by ris de veau, tender and golden. Each bite was deep and comforting, the flavours familiar yet indulgent.

The wine, le Merle Blanc de Château Clarke 2023 was bright and elegant, a beautiful pairing that carried the meal effortlessly. I finished with a plate of cheese: a blue, a goat, and a washed rind, each with its own quiet personality.

It’s the quality of service that makes the difference between a good and great restaurant and the service at Allard was brilliant.

Well done to the team at Allard for making my last Parisian dinner of this trip so memorable.

I think this is probably the best service I’ve had in Paris by far, excellent team. The restaurant is cozy and beautiful. The food was amazing, the foie gras with cherries and their famous duck are something you cannot miss. I would highly recommend this for anyone and come hungry. Even better with a group of 3-4 to try more things since the duck is quite large. Overall 10/10

A classic French restaurant in the heart of Paris, with a very interesting space that has maintained its authenticity over time. Nice food — simple and unpretentious — good service, and great wine. A pleasant experience; I recommend it.

An unforgettable dining experience at Allard a truly classic and historic Parisian restaurant. We loved the Homard bleu rafraîchi, the Escargots en coquilles, the Filet de bœuf doré, sauce aux poivres, and the Turbot façon Dugléré. Every dish was full of distinctive flavors, and the service was simply excellent.
A timeless Parisian gem that I highly recommend

On our various trips to Paris we’ve made it a point to come to Allard almost every single trip. On each visit we leave satisfied and happy with the experience.

We feel that the food here is some of the most authentic and classic bistro food that you can find, plus it is cooked almost perfectly.

However, our only gripe/complaint is that every time we come the prices seem to be getting more expensive. Hence the 4 star rating.

All in all, if you’re looking for some classic authentic bistro food with classic dishes that seem to be disappearing like frog legs and pan seared foie gras, Allard is definitely the place to visit.

The funny thing is, while I complain about the price, I have a feeling I’ll still be coming back for another classic French bistro meal the next time I find myself in Paris!

Food was spectacular, if you’re looking to try French traditional dishes at their finest (and are willing to pay) I’d recommend. I’m not a regular reviewer, but I had such a great experience that I thought I’d share.

Wine selection (red) was also excellent, it had a really great range suitable even within the by the glass menu.

The service levels were fantastic, the right level of looking after you without being overbearing.

It’s quite expensive but if you go in with eyes wide open and are willing/able to afford that experience , I would absolutely recommend.

The hospitality here is special. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, we felt like we were guests in someone’s home, rather than first-time restaurant guests. The entire staff was warm, approachable, and made our experience lovely. The menu is small, well-curated, and delicious. The sommelier was able to make recommendations based on our ordering and our price range. (We were very happy with his recommendations, too.) The cadence of the meal was perfect – we had plenty of time to savor each course and contemplate the next. The ambiance is a step back in time, comfortable, romantic, and cozy. This was a particularly lovely experience all the way around, and we will absolutely return.

A cult place for 100%. Why 4 stars when everything is 5? A place for people on a budget. Because honestly, this place is only for those who can afford it, and I don’t mean that they appreciate it.
Service outstanding and advanced.
The food is simply amazing, I didn’t even take a single photo, in my opinion, it would just be disrespectful to those who prepared these incredible dishes.
Do I recommend, yes, for pleasure and enjoyment (and be ready to pay for it)
Reservation, recommended.
