    Bonjour and merci for another video recommendation. For the past ten years I have been hesitant to try this restaurant in part based on the multitude of instagrammers posting exterior photos. Now I must try after enjoying other restaurants in your videos. Merci encore. 💙🤍❤️

    When I was in Paris last January, I really wanted to go to this restaurant specifically for the Tournedos Rossini (you never see that dish on menus anymore!) but hesitated due to it being in a touristy area. Next time!

    I was in Paris in early December and paid this restaurant a visit. Not cheap but you know that when you go there. Food was excellent. And as you said, the service was likewise..and so friendly. Love your channel. Also went to Cafe du Commerce on your recommendation. Another gem. Best wishes from Dublin.

    Happy New Year Alain. To you and yours. Hope this new year is a wonderful one for you. Thanks for another great video, filled with great information and honesty. Keep up the amazing work.

    Food is great and worth it. Traditional escargot is the best. The waiters seem overstretched at times. They are not being rude just super busy. . I live in the immediate area and go there several times a year when it’s not a busy tourist season.

    I am happy to hear you had good time & food there, I visited first in 1991 and still remember it fondly. Like you said: a bit pricey but great service and very, very good food…

    Alain, you are right L'Escargot Montorgueil is a surprisingly good place, cozy and charming, this is maybe be my sons favorite restaurant in Paris!
    We always get the 36 pieces escargot sampler that my son loves, I prefer the onion soup, it comes in a puff pastry like top. The boeuf Rossini is amazing and the duck legs are better than average for Paris. Normally not much room for desert but the coffee gourmand if I have the room.
    It is touristy, with all the drawbacks of that, but I bet we still eat here at least once this year…

    Thank you for another lovely restaurant in Paris. We will try it out in October, especially the flog leg.
    Happy New Year and wish you all the best
