Restaurant in Paris serving a varied seasonal menu and daily menus, meats and fish a la plancha.
Christophe Chabanel is properly installed in his small restaurant where he is at the same time in charge of the cuisine but also the service in the dining room to accommodate his guests. Classic décor enhanced with a red coating in the background, large moleskin benches, well prepared tables with tablecloths and cloth white napkins. On the à la carte menu, which varies very regularly depending on the seasons, and on the chalk menu of the day, we pleasantly find the must-eat of a bistro with a certain originality. The very affordable lunch formula allows you to choose between two starters and two main courses, for example: hot goat cheese in puff pastry and endive seasoned with citrus vinegrette or beef broth and Royan ravioli, followed by a range of pig and its lentils soup or a à la plancha mackerel fillet accompanied by its acidulous juice and soy and its leek fondue. Interesting suggestions that make this restaurant a convivial and inspired address for a good gourmet moment.

As Texans, the name "Le Bouledogue" (translation: The Bulldog) gave us a grin — we imagined something casual or pub-like. But when we walked in, we were surprised in the best way. The atmosphere was refined and relaxed, with a romantic, business-class feel. Think soft lighting, quiet tables, and just enough Parisian charm to know you’re somewhere special.
We picked up a phrase in Paris — “Très bon!” — and let me tell you, it absolutely fit the meal.
We started with the French onion soup, and it was loaded with cheese — bubbling, baked just right, and deeply flavorful. One of the best versions we’ve had anywhere.
For the main course, we went with the daily special: a steak kebab served with mashed potatoes, followed by a strawberry dessert that reminded us of good ole strawberry shortcake back home. Every bite hit the spot — simple, well-prepared, and packed with flavor.
The staff were outstanding — warm, professional, and welcoming, just like Mary and her team at the hotel. Even with our limited French, they made us feel comfortable and looked after. The service was smooth and kind without being over-the-top.
If you're staying near Le Marais and looking for a spot that blends local charm, excellent food, and a quiet, polished setting, Le Bouledogue is a fantastic choice. Whether you’re out for a romantic dinner or just want a real Parisian meal done right, this place is, in a word — très bon.
