We've been eating at Le Troquet for years, and although the kitchen has changed hands, we still find it a reliably pleasant destination. The cuisine is still Basque in concept, and (this time at least), the entrées (appetizers) faded in comparison with our main course—a jeu de porc with lentils, and a daurade with ratatouille. The strawberry soup for dessert... More

Forget about fancy settings and focus in the food. That is the definition of Le Troquet. If a local friend would have not told me about it I would have missed a great opportunity to have a great dinner in a hidden gem. I return every time I go to Paris.

This is where the locals eat. Be prepared to be the only foreigners. The food is in the Basque style, and is quite good. The 15th arrondissement is out of central Paris, but it is worth the trip. We walked from St Germain in about an hour, but it's close to several train stops. Prix-fixe menu with lots of choices.... More

Good value for money (menu dinner 32€), simple yet very delicous and generous dishes. Had a remoulade de celeri and aiguillette de canard for a starter, it was big enouhg to be a main course. Superb celeri! Main course, Mulet poele et ses legumes was very simple but tasty, it was very well done! desser, soupe de chocolat et ses... More

We went there because we were close to our hotel. We found the place and the personell was very nice (they find a good table for us). The menu was in French but quickly it was translated for us. We had the "6 taste" option for 41 €. Everything was very excellent. This is a place that you must try... More

This is a restaurant in my neighborhood which I frequent regularly. Great Basque food - hearty! So order appropriately :-) They have a creative seasonal menu, using a wide variety of available ingredients. The souffle with cherries is to die for. Service is always great, and I see them very gracious with those who don't know some French. Let them... More

This restaurant was recommended by friends in Australia who recently visit Paris. (See "Les36" review below). Sometimes friends recommendations can be misleading but I have to say in this case Les got it right! We did the six course degustation, which is the chef's choice and found every thing excellent except for the second main course which was a bit... More

On a trip of a lifetime, myself and my two children, my sister and brother-in-law were looking for somewhere to eat that catered for vegetarians as three of the five of us are and the fourth is only a fish eater. We searched for this amazing little place tucked in a small back street of Paris and were greeted by... More

The "ardoise" restaurants are becoming tedious in Paris. Those that are honest about it and frequently change the menu to reflect the thoughts of the chef are fine. However most use the chalkboard as a tourist gimmick. Le Troquet is probably in the second category. Service is pleasant enough, the menu is nothing unusual and the price is high for... More
