Au Petit Fer à Cheval

There are three restaurants on the same street owned by the same boss. I went to the authentic one with old bar, tiny seat with good food. Next time I will try their other restaurant that looks more spacious.

The cheese is the star 🌟 of this charming place. The tarte tatin is really good! The ham sandwich…the bread is perfection. Coffee ☕️ is on point. The ambience is transportive. The service is NOT. And at the end of the day no matter how much I like the rest of it, I cannot come back to a place that isn’t welcoming. There are too many places in the Marais that make you feel cared for, to come back to one that doesn’t.

What a nice, quaint, neighborhood restaurant in Marais. There’s a bar area in the front, a couple of small tables in the front that spill out into the street and maybe about 5-6 tables in the back. I didn’t need a reservation for a 1 seat table. The staff were all nice and friendly and tried their best to explain the dishes in English. I opted for their deal of the day which included an appetizer, a meal, and a dessert for 34 euros. I forgot the name of my start but it reminded me of a pate. I didn’t realize that that was what I ordered because I don’t really like pate’s so that was my fault, but it was pretty good though. I then had the duck a l’orange which was superb. Tender, juicy, flavorful and incredibly filling. The creme brulee was classic and the perfect way to end the meal. I definitely recommend this restaurant and plan to save it to my list of restaurants to go to when I’m in Paris.

I can confidently say that this restaurant is by far the best dining experience I've had in Paris. From the moment we stepped in, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. He was not only friendly but also fun, kind, and extremely polite. Now, onto the food. The tartare steak was simply outstanding - fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. Every bite was a delight. The dessert was a sweet conclusion to the meal, and the wine selection complemented our dishes perfectly. Overall, I loved everything about this restaurant, from the food to the service to the atmosphere. I'm already looking forward to my next visit and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience in Paris.

This was the best meal I had in Paris - the Beef Bourguignon was so rich and flavourful, and the tarte tatin dessert was freshly baked and nearly brought a tear to my eye it was that delicious. Excellent food, good service and a super cute authentic atmosphere, very small and cozy.

Very average. Suggested by a friend and was disappointed. You won't be mad if you go here, but just don't set your expectations too high and it'll be fine. Don't get the duck confeit though. Very packed table setup, you're eating with strangers almost, but it's a nice patio.

Excellent spot for drinks and small plates, or, a proper lunch / dinner. Ordered the duck confit which was cooked to perfection. Although it was not served with a sauce, the moist duck did not necessarily need sauce to improve it. Their glasses of wine and digestifs are reasonably priced, and their staff is attentive. Got by on minimal French, but heard many English speaking tourists converse effectively with the bartenders. Recommend sitting at the bar for the best experience! The horseshoe shape is iconic and intimate, and access to the bartenders means quicker service.

Food was worth a tight squeeze of a restaurant. The duck confit was crispy and moist, the beef bourguignon was rich and tender, the French onion soup was rich but not overwhelming. Greta beer selection and food is responsibly sourced.
