Wonderful Lunch! - Edit
Food was fresh, delicious and unique. Wonderful coconut, plantain and cassava soup; a "burger" lentil vegetarian patty and "blue cheese" and a wonderful salad with a horseradish dressing, shredded cabbage, lettuce, raisins, olives, tomatoes, carrots, sunflower seeds.

Traditional - Edit
Apparently, this is the oldest vegetarian restaurant in France, in activity since 1978! It's in an incredibly (and unexpectedly) quiet street literally 100 meters from Notre Dame, and it's a very nice restaurant. I had lunch with my family there and we had the basmati rice with veggies (average), the baked potatoes and sweet potatoes veggies tofu with sauce (spicy!), and the two vegan desserts (I would certainly recommend the brownie with ice cream - you can choose the flavour). I appreciate the possibility to get traditional/naturally vegan dishes here, rather than fake meat or other vegan dishes that you can find in several vegan restaurants nowadays. We also ordered some baked potatoes for my kid and they were reeeeeeeally good!

Some of the best food in Paris - Edit
This place was exceptional. The dishes were full of flavor and clearly prepared with love. We ordered the L'assiette berbère and the Le Mafé avec beurre de cacahuète. The sauce from the Le Mafé was exceptional.

Gemütliches Restaurant in Paris mit hervorragendem Essen - Edit
Das Essen war super. Ich hatte einen veganen Kartoffelgratin welcher einfach großartig geschmeckt hat. Besonders gefallen an dem Restaurant hat mir die Lage. Das Restaurant befindet sich in einer ruhigen Nebenstraße und ist sehr gemütlich.

Bon mais pas au niveau - Edit
Le local est très jolie et donne une bonne ambiance, juste au milieu de Paris.
Read moreNous avons prix le faux gras et la tartare d'avocat comme entrée. Le faux gras manquait de quelque choses: c'était juste une purée de lentille mais il manque d'épaisseur dans le goût, et la tartare d'avocat et mangue avait des morceaux de mangue pas trop mur qui n'était pas plaisantes au goût.
En plat nous avons eu l'assiette de seitan, tofu etc et le gratin de pomme de terre. Dans l'assiette mixte il y avait des goûts intéressants, qui est bien si on veut essayer un peu de tout mais il n'y a pas un lien forte entre les parties. Le gratin était plutôt bon, les saveurs se sont bien mélanges.
Globalement un bon repas, mais nous attendions mieux. Il n'y a pas une bonne correspondance entre les prix et l'offre effective
Pros: Bon service, Jolie restaurant
Cons: Pas correspondance prix et goût

Small Street-side Cafe with Nice Offerings - Edit
A charming little veg/vegan restaurant with a good selection of plates. Nice to have this cafe near Notre Dame, but the food was so-so.

Matig, smaakloos eten - Edit
We hadden de schnitzel van seitan met groenten en aardappeltjes, en een aardappel gratin van zoete en normale aardappelen. Na nog geen 5 minuten van het bestellen kwam het eten er al aan…. Dit kan dus niet vers zijn geweest. Het eten was nogal smaakloos en de groenten waren te zacht gekookt. Nadat we uitgegeten waren, hoefde we geen dessert. Nog geen minuut nadat we onze drankjes ophadden kwam de serveerster met de rekening, zonder dat we daar om hadden gevraagd.
Read moreIk zou dit zeker niet aanraden of nog een keer naar toe gaan.

Niet voor herhaling vatbaar - Edit
We kregen dit restaurant getipt van onze gids maar wij raden het niet aan. Nadat we besteld hadden stond binnen 5 minuten het eten al op tafel. Vonden wij best apart. Niet alles was warm, eerder lauw. Wij hadden de aardappel gratin en de schnitzel van seitan maar aan beide zat weinig smaak. Zelf koken wij lekkerder.
Read moreToen wij ons eten en drankje op hadden werd vrijwel meteen de rekening op de tafel gelegd en leek het erop dat we moesten gaan vertrekken. Geen fijne manier.
Cons: Niet smaakvol, Lauw eten, Rekening lag direct op tafel toen het eten op was

Delicious! - Edit
Multiple clearly labeled vegan options on an all-vegetarian menu. Cute atmosphere and kind servers. The potato & sweet potato au gratin was incredible. Lentil burger was good, but the potatoes that came with it were amazing. There are 2 vegan dessert options in addition to several vegan sorbets. I tried the brownie with a cocoa sorbet - it was warm and melted and so rich; can’t recommend enough!

Not open when advertised - Edit
The app said the restaurant was open at 14:30. However, although it looked open, we were greeted with a surly 'fermèe' and sent on our way. Either Happy Cow has got this wrong or the restaurant is misinforming HC.

Restaurants generally don’t maintain the information here, it’s community sourced. If you happened to catch the current hours, you can suggest a change on the HappyCow website.

Lovely food & cute atmosphere. Located right next to Notre Dame, so fantastic if you are visiting the local sites/are in central paris.

Not for me - Edit
I’m pretty sure I ate here in the ‘90s, and I don’t know that the menu has changed significantly since then.
Read moreWe had chickpea-based faux gras to start, and then I chose a main of seitan, raw vegetables, cooked vegetables, and potatoes. It ended up being as random as it sounds. Kinda like what you’d get from a restaurant with nothing vegan on the menu that just whips something up at your request. My dining companion didn’t like her gratin much more.
I really wanted to love this place, but I left feeling disappointed. It reminded me of Moosewood in upstate New York. I wish these pioneering vegetarian restaurants could figure out how to make delicious vegan food!

Viele vegane Optionen - Edit
Wir waren während unseres Aufenthalts direkt zwei mal dort essen. In direkter Umgebung zu Notre Dame. Wir hatten als Vorspeise die Falafel. den Burger und das Schnitzel als Hauptgericht. Das Schnitzel war eine 10/10 😚👌🏼 Beim zweiten Mal hatten wir direkt nochmal das Schnitzel. Das Restaurant an sich ist sehr klein und gemütlich. Man kann draußen sitzen oder oben im Restaurant. Personal sehr nett und alles sauber & gemütlich. Beim nächsten Paris Besuch kommen wir gerne wieder!

The oldest vegetarian restaurant in Paris - Edit
When I was younger, it was not that easy to be vegetarian in Paris but "Le Grenier Notre Dame" was already here.
