Our experience at Le Relais de l'Entrecote was excellent. The concept is simple as the menu only includes a fresh salad to start followed by steak frites as the main course. The entrecote was delicious and the fries were thin and crispy. We loved that they provided a refill every time we finished a serving. The service was very fast and professional which made the experience even better. It is definitely a must-visit for steak lovers.

Had a great experience at Le Relais de l'Entrecôte. We waited in line for about 40 minutes, but it was worth it. The steak was very tasty, the wine was good, and the salad was fresh and delicious. As an American, I felt the steak portion was a little small, but the flavor was excellent. You will get two servings. Dessert was also really good. Overall, we enjoyed our time and would definitely recommend it for the quality and atmosphere.

The staff was friendly, attentive, and quick. The venue itself is warm and inviting, nicely decorated, though the tables are cramped. The fixed menu offers a delicious experience: a salad with a excellent vinaigrette, impeccably cooked and sliced beef (medium-rare, just as it should be), and perfectly crispy french fries. Water and desserts are separate. The food was outstanding, with generous portions. They even came around twice to serve more meat and fries. What truly sets this place apart are the sauces for both the salad and the meat; they are delicious. For dessert, I had a Mont Blanc, which was excellent too with great texture and flavor. A couple of downsides. The waiting times outside were excessively long, almost an hour in the cold, which is unacceptable even during peak hours. They should improve this, perhaps with a covered or indoor waiting area, or consider a larger venue. Furthermore, the price of drinks is insane: I paid 7€ for a 1L sparkling water bottle. That said, I had a good experience overall.

The restaurant opens at 6:30 PM, but we were already in line at 5:53 PM. We waited about 1 hour and 40 minutes to get inside. First, you’re served a salad, followed by the main dish, which is fries and steak in some kind of sauce. The food is excellent. We also ordered dessert, which is not included in the price of the main dish. We chose crème brûlée and profiteroles. The profiteroles are not very good, while the crème brûlée is definitely worth trying. The waitresses are very friendly, and the atmosphere in the restaurant is quite nice. Is it worth waiting in line? It all depends on the company you’re with😃 The prices are quite high, but appropriate for Paris. Our bill came to €85 per person. Be aware that irish coffee is 12€ and not worth the money.

A true Parisian classic and a must-visit for steak lovers. The concept is simple but iconic: a fresh green salad followed by tender entrecôte served with their famous secret sauce and crispy fries. The food is consistently good, portions are generous, and the atmosphere feels lively and authentically French. Be prepared for a queue during peak hours, but the experience is worth it. Friendly service, great value for Paris, and a restaurant that has kept its reputation for decades. Simple, traditional, and delicious. 🇫🇷🥩🍟 Tip: Don't overthink the menu—just enjoy the classic formula that made this place famous! 😊
