Le Grand Pan in Paris

"A true gem hidden in the 15th arrondissement - Le Grand Pan is one of those spots locals whisper about. Warm, effortless service (special thanks to the two fantastic waitresses) and a menu full of bold, comforting French dishes. Highlights included the parfait egg with morels, tender octopus salad, and perfectly cooked meats. The cherry clafoutis was a bit dry, but everything else was spot on. Refined bistronomy in a relaxed, authentic setting. Will definitely return."

"My party and I are visiting France for the first time and had the most amazing experience at Le Grand Pan. The staff was wonderful and so accommodating to us. We asked for wine recommendations and had a delish and affordable wine and then an incredible dinner. One member of my party was vegetarian and the chef made her a fabulous meal. The dessert was the best way to end our first travel day. Merci chef you are so wonderful thank you for welcoming us to the city."

"Absolutely lovely experience at Le Grand Pan. The service here was wonderful! I came in solo and took a seat at the bar. The team was busy with multiple parties that night but attended to me quickly and warmly. Food and wine pairings were perfect! Highly recommend making a reservation in advance, or chance a seating at the bar (still a great exp!)"

"It is a beautiful restaurant, there was a little wait for a table with our booking. That was ok though as it was worth the wait. The staff were very friendly and accommodating with us being English. One staff member inperticular Paloma (don't know if I got that right) was fantastic. Our menu was translated for us and she gave her recommendations too. The food was fantastic, delicious doesn't cover it. The only thing I would improve was having more bread with my pate, but I'm greedy . The chips were the right amount of crispness but still fluffy inside. Desert was my favourite, I had the citrus meringue pie that was a pie but wasn't a pie (words from the staff). Delicious."

"Highly Recommend. I had a great and satisfying French dining experience. The food was a highlight, I ordered a flavourful, rustic terrine paired perfectly with crusty bread and tangy pickles, followed by tender, well-cooked beef accompanied by truly excellent, crispy French fries. A great selection of wine pairings was available. The service was efficient and friendly, creating a relaxed and unhurried dining experience. The servers were friendly, kind and patient as they were explaining the items in their menu to me (non-French speaker). The atmosphere felt like a welcoming neighbourhood restaurant, unpretentious and authentic. ps: this restaurant might be a gem if it isn’t already."

"My favorite restaurant on the whole earth. Phenomenal food, professional staff, and a lovely, local atmosphere. I come here every trip to Paris"

"Lovely little gem tucked away on a quiet street. We had reservations (seems like a necessity) for my birthday dinner. The restaurant is crowded like all really good restaurants in Paris but we didn’t mind a bit. The wait staff were kindly patient with us, explaining the menu and what they are known for - the rib steaks. Unfortunately they were out of the veal so we opted for the beef. A huge (maybe 2”?) rib steak done very rare with accompanying frites and salad for 2 to share. We also had two appetizers, octopus on puréed cauliflower and small shrimp on celeriac. Both very nicely done. A chocolate cake finished off dinner. Not bad but pretty much a chocolate lava cake that everyone at home is obsessed with."

"One of the best places to eat in Paris. Take this from someone that has tried several places. The service is top notch; specifically the Asian server who was funny and lovely. The food was also amazing. I left feeling happy."
