The restaurant is well situated in the Old Town.The staff are pleasant and accommodating.The problem is that there seems to be a lack of attention to detail,for example there was no condiment tray or finger wipes supplied with one of the orders for mussels.The food was average and really quite tasteless barely acceptable .The price fair but not value for...

Found the place by accident and we were not disappointed. I had the set menu at €22.50 And my wife at €16.50. Scallops, mussels, beef, fish and pizzas all good. The mussels in particular were sweet and delicious. With drinks and a tip the bill came to €80 which although not cheap to prices in a decent British pub is... More

My friends and I came across this restaurant on our day trip from England.I'm glad I didn't read the reviews before hand as I don't think we would have ventured in to the restaurant. But we did and all four of us had four nice meals. The meals were basic - Beef Bourguignon (x2), Spaghetti Bolognese and a Pizza. Basic... More

By the lack of other alternatives at around 18:00 we ended up at this place. My partner ordered French onion soup, which was more like an OXO cube with lukewarm water in it. I had the foie gras which was probably the cheapest they could find. The presentation of the dish could have been done better by a 3 year... More

We have had many evening meals during our tour of Europe, and this was one of the best. The service was not the fastest, but we were here for a quiet meal and the food was excellent. We were not rushed and the waiters were very polite and helpful. Overall, a very pleasant experience. I would thoughly recommend this restaurant.

We had lunch at Le Parisien on our last day in Boulogne and it was indeed a good choice. I ordered Mussels cooked in mushroom and cream sauce and it was absolutely delicious. It was the best mussels I have ever tasted. It is the best last meal in Boulogne. My family enjoyed their meal too. Recommend to friends and... More

We wanted to go for a nice meal after having visited the city, but it as still before 6 o'clock, so not many restaurants were open yet, so we went for this one. What a terrible mistake! The wine was bad, the tables were not clean and worst of all, the fish was not fresh (in fact is was rotten)... More

My fiancé and I visited Boulogne sur mer on a day trip yesterday. We decided to venture into the old town for a meal. I had my eyes set on a nice bit of steak in a small local restaurant. If that's what you're after, don't go here! We chose this one out of several on the quaint cobbled street... More

Ate here after walking around the old walled city. The set menu options looked very reasonable for €16 so chose Soupe a L'oignon and Boeuf Bourguignone. Service was so slow as to be working to geological time, The dreadful harridan who seemed to rule the roost was more interested in her nails than her customers and had all the charm... More

This was the only busy place on a wet Sunday evening so we ventured in. We were probably enticed by the E11 menu . We had mussels and salmon pate, both had steak frites, then mousse au chocolat and cheese. We shared 50cl of wine. OK, the place was oddly decorated and full of English tourists but the food was...
