brasserie de paris

i went as a plus one for a friends' work function. after seeing the menu i was so excited, only to be disappointed by the taste and the plating. we were crammed up in a little space, and the lighting was also not great, not sure they had load shedding. thefoodwasn't wow, but i loved the kiwi sorbet! the service is good, as the waiter kept coming to check if i am okay.

but i will not be visiting again.

very good choice for an anniversary dinner date. the restaurant has a unique ambiance with a relaxed atmosphere. thefoodwas excellent and paired with good friendly service.

fine dining that caters to vegetarians? that equals culinary heaven for me, and thefoodand service at this restaurant can certainly be described as heavenly. the history of the building is fascinating, along with the uiqiue architecture, which adds to the allure of the overall experience.

the service is outstanding!

the food, every morsel was divine and thoroughly enjoyed.

we are going back this weekend, and taking friends to share in this discovery of lovely french cuisine in pretoria!

supreme service, great food!! nothing beats a restaurant that servesfoodmade with passion and served with pride. my favorite restaurant in pretoria. the setting is beautiful and it is always a pleasure to dine at brasserie de paris

would give a 4.7 rating.   4.5 does not really do it justice but closest to a 4.7

had dinner at there on thursday evening. limited parking on the inside. property very unique and interesting. solid expensive architecture. just have a look at the arched ceiling built with face bricks. 

pleasant and warm ambiance. soft french music playing. a few small dining rooms with beautiful decor. elegant furniture and colours. perfect for a romatic dinner or executive business dinner.

had the butternut soup, chateaubriand, green beans, pommes frites and béarnaise; and crème brûlée. the meat quality and preparation was excellent. the crème brûlée was delicious. as a man i just think thefoodportions are smaller than a restaurant like delices de france where thefoodis equally good.

can recommend the restaurant anytime for a special occasion.

i have been wanting to come here for such a long time, and finally had the opportunity this weekend! and wow!! it was incredible! we had their 5 course wine pairing tasting menu. it was incredible! the wines pared so well with all the courses and the waiter came and showed us the bottle before he poured at the table! so you know exactly what you are getting. only critical point, when the one main arrived the wine was oxidized and when we told the waiter this he quickly fixed it but was very snotty afterwards, contradicting himself saying it was opened that day, but when i asked if he just can open a new bottle he said the last new bottle was opened last week??? hence the off wine... so why have a personality change after he received a very generous tip despite everything, which kind of spoiled things for us. otherwise thefoodwas out of this world!

this restaurant has by far the best service i have ever had in a south african restaurant. it is a classic french restaurant that offers a la carte and set menu options with an impressive wine list.

we reserved the rooftop terrace for an anniversary dinner. it is beautiful and understated without​ the pomp and circumstance of some of the other places in the area. when it started to rain, we were immediately offered a cosy table downstairs. they went out of their way to make us feel special (including hand made truffles on a specially decorated plate after dinner).

we had the set menu with wine pairing. the dishes were exquisite (the cold melon soup was something special), and the pairings included a selection of local and international wines.

overall, i was blown away by the excellent service, tastyfoodand laid-back cool atmosphere. can't wait to go back!

i love this restaurant. it is my favourite, favourite spot in the city. every big moment gets celebrated here. the atmosphere is relaxed and cozy, the staff attentive. we usually order the set menu and allow the chef to take us on afoodjourney, and i've never been disappointed. somehow i've never been there on a warm evening, but i imagine with the doors open it's a lovely outside/inside experience. in winter, however, the fireplace sets the mood. i can recommend brasserie de paris to anyone who's looking for an intimate dinner with family, friends or your better half.

i am never disappointed at brasserie. valentines day lunch was amazing! we had the 5 course with wine pairing and it was well worth it. the staff seated us immediately and we never had to wait or look for service. the waiters are polite and well informed about the food and the wine. the atmosphere is relaxing and the seating arrangements allow for privacy. i would recommend the salmon and beef trio if you have the opportunity as their menu does change, one of my personal favorites is the tomato soup starter. perfect place to spoil someone special! thanks again, will be back soon!!

had the valentines lunch on sunday. we enjoyed the view from the roof very much. been planning on visiting brasserie for some time and are we are glad we went on sunday. thefoodwas tasty and the menu was well thought out. the dessert was to die for and i will definitely return. the architecture of the building is interesting. the service was good and the waitress very friendly and a bit reserved. which we liked as it was valentines and we wanted to have some intimate conversation. we enjoyed the experience and will be back again soon.

valentines day lunch was exceptionally disappointing bearing in mind this is such a gorgeous venue. there was no recognition whatsoever that this was valentines day, the service was appalling, due possibly to the fact that service was included in the fixed price, but most importantly, thefooditself was poor in construction, presentation and flavour. this restaurant unfortunately no way represents french haute cuisine as it claims. the glorious venue does very little to remedy its basic culinary deficiencies. a spoilt opportunity.

myself and my boyfriend had our 3 year anniversary at brasserie de paris. it was an unbelievable experience, from the friendly waiters to the beautiful ambiance and the amazingfoodpaired with a perfect bottle of wine. i would highly recommend a night at brasserie de paris, to get away from the hustle in the city and stop time with your loved one. thank you for making our night so special... see you guys soon

what a lovely restaurant experience! great atmosphere paired with deliciousfoodand a perfect bottle of wine! excellent service too!
a true hidden gem!

impressive setting in waterkloof. it was our first time to visit this restaurant and upon entry we waited for a few minutes without service. this was due to our own misunderstanding and not knowing the place and knowing we should take the stairs up. the service was very good and staff well trained and understood the menu.foodwas very well presented and very nice and tasty. we did not eat from the pre-set wine pairing menu but rather ordered from the ala carte menu. i had the goats cheese starter which was very tasty and quite rich as goats cheese should be. my wife had the salmon tartare and was very impressed. for mains we both had the trio of fillet. my wife requested her fillet to be rare and i ordered mine blue. the chef got this slighty wrong as both orders were overcooked but still very tasty nontheless. the chef prepared me a chocolate fondant for desert which i saw on the website menu but was no longer available on the restaurant menu. it was faultless. my wife had her usual creme brulee and enjoyed it very much. the selection of wines is sufficient but not very large compared yo other restaurant cellars. i also missed a few trusted and known names from the winelist and i found the wines on the list a bit on the expensive side for what you get. all this is understandable taking into account the type of establishment this restaurant represents. it was overall a good fine dining experience. we enjoyed thefoodand friendly staff and afterwards enjoyed relaxing in the bar area.

this is a french dining experience of note. don't be in a hurry, as goodfoodis suppose to be savoured and appreciated. always book a table! and then for an extra special experience ask to be seated on the rooftop patio or the wine cellar. the degustation menu (5 courses) lets you sample a bit of everything. recommendation: trio beef fillet (pepper fillet, bonemarrow fillet & fillet with bearnaise) served with stunning shoestring fries and a congnac sauce. 💜
