Mildly disappointing - Edit
Well it was ok. I had rejected various fast food vegan places because I wanted to see what the French could do with vegan food. But it failed to excite. The menu features commercial vegan burgers, “nuggets” and violife vegan cheese - the bland stuff in every vegan shop. So not really a gourmet experience. But it wasn’t incredibly expensive so maybe I shouldn’t grumble.

Thank you for your feedback.
Read moreJust to clarify: we've never claimed to be a “gourmet” restaurant — nor a fast-food spot. Our menu is centered around homemade dishes prepared with organic and local ingredients. Aside from the “nuggets,” “patty,” and “cheddar,” everything is made in-house, including our sauces.
Indeed, only three items on the menu include these plant-based meat alternatives: the No-Chicken Tacos, the Better Burger, and the Quesadillas. They’re mainly designed for those who are looking for a familiar taste and texture (flexitarian).
We’re not trying to reinvent the wheel — we don’t make these alternatives ourselves because, let’s be honest, it’s hard to beat companies with over 15 years of R&D… especially from our 4m² kitchen. And we’re transparent about it: the brands we use are clearly mentioned on our menu.
So while it may not have matched your expectations, we hope our approach — thoughtful, honest, and rooted in quality — is clear.
If you were looking for something more exciting, we’d suggest skipping the nuggets next time and going for one of our fully homemade dishes.
And finally — if you were expecting high-end French cuisine, yes, the bill would have looked quite different.
Our mission is to democratize plant-based food, and to simply "be better" every day.
Your comment feels a little bitter — and clearly, this just wasn’t the right place for what you were seeking.
Regards,
BBetter's Team (not perfect, but at least trying to convince more people to eat better everyday)

I’m not bitter - just giving my honest opinion. I notice that you hotly contest every remark here that is not wholly positive. I suggest that you are not doing yourself any favours with this attitude since it will not encourage you ever to improve.

Thanks for your honesty — we’re just giving ours in return.
Read moreWe actually welcome constructive feedback — it helps us grow. But when someone sums up our menu as “bland commercial stuff” and laments not finding the gourmet French vegan epiphany they were hoping for, a bit of context seems fair. Not to argue — to clarify.
So no, we’re not perfect.
But we show up every day, do the work, and yes — we reply when it counts.
And as for calling your comment “bitter” — let’s just say, if every place in France fails to excite you, the issue might not be the food.
If that’s seen as an “attitude,” so be it.
We’d rather be bold than bland.

Nice place with good value tasting menu - Edit
B.Better is a nice little 100% vegan restaurant located on a quiet street in Le Marais. Their seasonal menu offers tapas, tex mex dishes and burgers. Or, as we did, you can get the tasting menu for €33 which gives you one tapas, one tex mex dish, half a burger & dessert. Everything was very good but I particularly recommend the buffalo-style cauliflower and the mushroom tacos. Staff are friendly and service is efficient. Highly recommended.

Tres Bon - Edit
Lovely little restaurant, specialising in Mexican-style small plates. Wonderful friendly staff and relaxed ambience. And located in the beautiful Marais, one of my favourite parts of Paris. Recommended.

Nice places for tapas - Edit
We went for lunch and tried five tapas. The food was tasty, dishes size was ok. The place is very small and a few tables are outside,the service was friendly. Apart from hummus tapas, there are no proteins all tapas are only veggies ( aubergines, asparagus, coli flower). For us it has been a very nice lunch experience!
Read moreCons: Not enough proteins in the tapas menu
B.BETTER
Dear PiselloPatata,
Read moreThank you so much for your visit and kind words about the atmosphere, service, and flavors!
We totally understand the protein question — but just a little clarification: we don’t believe people go to restaurants only to meet their nutritional intake (how sad would that be?), but rather for the joy of taste, seasonal produce, and the pleasure of sharing good food.
That said, many of our sauces — including the ones served with the potatoes, asparagus, eggplants, and BBQ cauliflower skewers — are actually made with pea and/or soy protein bases. So they’re not just "veggies"! The only truly low-protein tapas would be the broccoli skewer and the accras.
We’re a small restaurant focused on seasonal, fully homemade dishes that happen to be 100% plant-based — but we promise, protein is never forgotten 😄
Hope to see you again soon!
Warm regards,
The B.Better Team

Cute place .dishes are very small - Edit
The olace was cute with a few sitting places.
Read moreWe ordered the tacos ,beer ,latte, and a desset.
The dishes were not cheap, so we expected the dishes to be bigger (each taco was 14/15 euro but was only two small tacos)
Dessert was also very small
Pros: Sitting inside and outside, Nice staff, Tasty
Cons: Small dishes, Expensive
B.BETTER
Dear Talya,
Read moreThank you for your feedback and for visiting us!
We understand that portion sizes can be a subjective matter, and we truly appreciate you sharing your thoughts.
That said, we’d like to offer a bit of context: our restaurant is located in the heart of Le Marais, one of the most expensive neighborhoods in Paris, where both rent and costs of living are particularly high.
We’re a small, family-run independent restaurant with only 26 seats, and we take great pride in offering 100% homemade dishes, using seasonal, organic, and local ingredients whenever possible.
Our portions may appear modest, but the quality, preparation time, and sourcing are truly ++.
To keep things accessible, we always suggest our €33 tasting menu, which offers a more complete experience and better value than ordering à la carte.
That’s also why we often recommend pairing a tapa with tacos — for example, our Mushroom Tacos + smashed potatoes come to €24 (lowest price), and the No-Chicken Tacos + asparagus to €27 (maximum) — which we believe are fair prices for a fresh, seasonal, fully homemade "main course" in this area.
Thank you again for your visit and your kind words about our team and food — we hope to welcome you again soon!
Warm regards,
The B.Better Team

Unimpressed - Edit
Friendly staff, okay interior, and edible but rather basic food, lacking any creativity in my opinion. Not cheap.

Dear Josh,
Read moreWe’re genuinely surprised by the lack of kindness in your way of expressing disappointment, especially with so little detail.
What exactly do you mean by "basic food"? Creativity is not always synonymous with quality. Rather than attempting to be "food magicians," we choose to focus on high-quality, organic, and seasonal ingredients sourced from a local farm—because for us, excellence starts with the product itself.
That said, we’re curious—what kind of culinary acrobatics would you have us perform to elevate our food beyond "edible" in your eyes (and, of course, to match your pricing expectations)?
If you have specific feedback, we’d be happy to hear it, as constructive criticism helps us improve. However, vague and dismissive comments like this one are neither useful nor respectful.
And remember, Nobody’s Perfect, Be Better.
The B.Better Team

Fair point. I’m happy to elaborate on my personal opinion: for the starter, I found that the mushrooms could have used a crispy element to create more structure, both in texture and taste (e.g. panko crumbs, crispy shallots, fried sage leaves).
Read moreRegarding the main, I noticed the burger seemed like a processed patty, the kind you can find at supermarkets, served in a plain white bun. There was some raw, cold sauerkraut, and the sauce tasted like ketchup. I would have loved to see something homemade in there—perhaps grilled vegetables or a more flavorful sauce to elevate the dish.
That’s why I rated my experience 4 rather than 5 stars.
B.BETTER
Thank you for taking the time to elaborate on your experience—as we mentioned before, we truly appreciate constructive feedback!
Read moreIf you’re referring to the flambéed shiitake mushrooms for your starter, our goal was to recreate a French-style moules marinières experience, where the depth of flavor comes from the sauce rather than a crispy element. We don’t believe crunchiness naturally belongs in this dish, but your suggestion is interesting! In the classic French recipe, celery slices are often used for a touch of freshness and crunch—this could be an idea worth exploring. Something to test!
If you were talking about our mushroom tacos, we actually do include crispy fried onions to add texture to the dish.
Regarding the Better Burger, the patty we use is from Heura, a high-quality brand known for its plant-based meat alternatives. We grill it over a charcoal BBQ, just like our organic, artisan-made bun. Every other component is made in-house, from our vegan béarnaise mayo and Texas-style BBQ sauce to our organic daikon radish coleslaw. Our homemade sauces have been such a hit with customers that we’re about to launch them for retail—so we’re genuinely surprised they didn’t suit your taste!
We truly value your opinion and hope to welcome you again so you can explore more of our menu—and perhaps gain a deeper understanding of our approach to plant-based cuisine next time.
Best regards,
The B.Better Team

Amazing casual restaurant - Edit
The food was really amazing. My girlfriend and I shared the confit aubergine as a starter, the portobello burger with marinated broccoli skewer and finally the chicken tacos. Everything was delicious and the service was fast and friendly. Highly recommended. Please note that the place isn’t big and tables are very close to each other, so if you’re looking for a place where you can have your space and privacy this is not the one.
