After having such great experiences I really wanted to give it 5 stars but the experience fell quite short. Upon entering I was able to get the seat of my choice which was nice. Also, the decor of the place was quaint and peaceful giving upscale vibes. I had the Cappuccino at the start and it was nice and warm for the cold weather. For appetizer I ordered pâté en croute, which was a pleasant surprise as it was my first time trying this dish. The salad accompanying it had a hint of heat reminding me of wasabi adding a unique twist to the dish. Loved it!
Got the Cassoulet for the main and it was just as good as the starter. Loved the flavours of the sauce complementing a variety of different meats harmoniously. An extremely satisfying main course. The dessert, however, fell flat. Based on the one most popularly ordered, they recommended the Armagnac Savarin. I was expecting the cake to be moist and flaky to the knife but it was anything but. The texture was coarse and the brandy poured on top of it kind of ruined the taste for me since I’m certainly not an alcohol lover. It was hard to finish as the bitter alcoholic flavours dominated the total experience.
Now for the service, overall it wasn’t bad, but I just felt there was too much unnecessary jesting. Maybe because they are trying to break the ‘french rudeness’ stereotype, not sure lol!
So, if someone asked if I would return I’d say probably not. Ok for a one time experience.

absolutely magnificent! went here with my boyfriend for my birthday dinner and had a great time.
we ordered the salmon heart, beef with mashed potatoes (which were crazy smooth and tasty), cod with squash, and for dessert we had the profiteroles.
service was immaculate, mentioned it was my birthday and we got a complimentary ice cream with a little candle
really recommend if you’re looking for a fancy fine dining experience

If there were 6 stars, that would be more appropriate. The food was exquisite, and the service was top notch. We had the cassoulet which was so very delicious and I can’t wait to try making it at home – so much flavor. We had the foie gras which was absolutely decadent and delicious. Beautiful restaurant and fantastic service. Oh and they served little chocolates from Alain Ducasse which were the best we had in Paris. Magnifique!

Authentic, Refined, and Historic
Benoit Paris is a must-visit for its authentic 1918 ambiance—it’s classic Paris at its best. The food is unpretentious yet refined, staying true to traditional French roots.
I had the Christmas menu, and the Pigeon Wellington was absolutely amazing. The Lobster Bisque was delicious (though I would have preferred it a bit hotter), and the other courses and wine pairings were excellent.
A huge thank you to Manouk for the exceptional service. He was incredibly professional and friendly without being overbearing. An overall excellent experience!

This bistro has a Michelin star for a reason! I dined solo and it was a fantastic experience. The escargot was fabulous, as was the cassoulet.
The staff were so lovely and very attentive. They even gave me an espresso with a madeleine after my meal, which was the perfect end to the night.

Benoit a Parian Bistro in Paris. I booked this restaurant on my final day in Paris on a Sunday for me and my wife. I read recommendations on the Michelin guide and it was highly recommended. Do I agree with the recommendation? Sadly not.
We walked in, and it is a beautiful bistro style restaurant with a French European feel to it. I loved the architecture and style. The plates and ornaments were beautiful and the staff were welcoming and friendly. However the food was average and I’ve got no idea why we were sat upstairs when there was free space on the ground floor.
We ordered the-
Duck fooe grass
Gourmet veal casserole with sweet breads
Seared beef tenderloin
Dessert- French cheese.
We liked the food, it was simple but authentic French and that was what we came and paid for. The cheese dessert however was too simple and personally a waste of money. Just a bunch of small cuts of cheese simply put on a plate. We didn’t finish the cheese, sadly was wasted. The other food was delicious and I highly recommend the veal sweet bread casserole.
We probably wouldn’t visit again, but it is a nice place to get an authentic French bistro feel.

A hidden gem in Paris. From the warm and attentive service to the beautifully prepared dishes, everything at Bienot feels thoughtful and genuine. The flavors are refined yet comforting, with each plate showcasing a balance of creativity and tradition. The ambiance is intimate without being pretentious, making it the kind of place where you instantly feel at ease. A true Parisian experience that lingers long after the last bite.

I had a really nice experience at Benoit. The food was good and the service was warm and attentive. My main dish did arrive a little colder than I expected, which was a bit disappointing, but the dessert completely made up for it. Overall, it was an enjoyable visit and I’d be happy to come back again.

Had a lovely lunch, this place has been around since 1912, so it’s got that classic Parisian bistro charm but without feeling too stiff or fancy. It’s part of Alain Ducasse’s group now, so you know you’re in good hands food-wise.
I went for the set lunch menu (please take note that set menu may be changed from time to time), it was beautifully prepared, simple yet traditional French dishes done right. The flavors were rich but balanced, and the portions were just right, not too heavy.
The service was amazing, very attentive without being overbearing. I was looked after by a friendly lady who made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. She explained the menu really well and checked in just the right amount. It’s those little touches that make a meal feel just nice.
At the end of the meal, they brought out some chocolate from their own factory, which was such a nice surprise. Rich, smooth, and just the perfect finish to a really satisfying lunch.
If you’re in Paris and want a relaxed but good French dining experience without the tourist-trap vibe, Benoit is a solid choice. It feels like stepping into a piece of history, but with warm service and food that totally holds up today.
Recommend for lunch, definitely worth a visit.
