"Rainy Sunday morning in Paris. We have early tickets. Noone is on the street, but the line inside the Louvre for our 9:30 access is 45 minutes long. But we sneaked in the side door on Rue De Rivoli and didn't have to stand outside....Hadn't visited in years, but knew it well, and we'd agreed to go to the odd places, no Mona or Winged or David; we hiked down to the Decorative Arts to see the Emperor's chambers, then walked through Northern Euro Paintings to be blown away again by the PP Rubens, the Van Dykes, and the Rembrants. Now, 3 hours since we entered, the thought of walking all the way out, walking in the rain, finding a comfortable place to eat, and then hiking back was not pleasant. We had passed Café Angelina on the way in and, knowing it would not be economical, we decided it would be the right solution for the moment. The entrance to the restaurant features an interesting solution: the line outside waits in the hall with no view of the interior of the restaurant, which is blocked by a huge, clouded piece of glass. Those inside have no sense of any pressure from outside for admission. Given the rain, we were invited in fairly quickly and given nice seats beside the window overlooking the Pyramid. The menu appeared, and no surprise, the (quite interesting) Club Sandwich and the Caesar Salad were 23.50 Euros. But there was fresh squeezed orange juice for 7E and a bottle of sparkling water for 3.5E. The food came quickly, and the waiter was pleasant. It was after he left that I noticed that the salad was limp and brown with age. I called him back and asked if I could get a salad made that day. He quickly too the offending bowl and soon returned with a replacement, which looked a little better. (I suspected he had tipped my bowl upside down into a new one and hidden the contents with dressing, but I wasn't going to complain The Club Sandwich came with 3 pieces of toast, something we don't see anymore in the US, the land of bulging waistlines. But it was interesting because it was made with chicken, tomatoes, mayo, lettuce and bacon... and slices of hard boiled egg and a lot of mustard. Not traditional, but not at all bad. My wife had the Caesar Salad. It too was not at all bad. There was a lot of it, and many very large pieces of chicken. Like the rest of the world, there was no anchovy in the creamy dressing. Then we ordered dessert, 2 café Americano and one order, 4, of macaroons. The waiter returned shortly with the coffee and the news that, it being Sunday, there were no macaroons. My wife laughed and said, Sunday, old lettuce, and no macaroons He responded, Its worse on Monday That made for a good headline, but Angelina is still a good solution for lunch, although I mus add that the Café Americano was more than a little thin. Order an espresso or a double."

Service was great! Extremely friendly staff. Hot chocolate was overrated and most likely would not get again if we go back.
Maryse

I love Paris and the food here but I would suggest to anyone visiting the Louvre to not stop at this place. It was hands down the worse service and food I have had in this beautiful city. It’s is horrible View menu

We waited 40 minutes on the sidewalk just to get a table. The restaurant is very pretty, but the upstairs Ladies room could use attention. The toilet seat was laying on the ground! The food was...ok, but extremely expensive for what we had. I was...disappointed.

the prices reflect the situation that is fantastic. eating is okay, but it was better, in paris, but still nice. my server was friendly and attentive. overall, if they want a top Louvre experience, and nothing against it an expensive little lunch (on wobble soup, glass wee then. coffee and tee citron and it was 50euro. then add it to the list and try to get a table near the window.

they wanted to taste their famous hot chocolate and get a lunch in the museum. surface dubbing with swollen walls, try to be a beautiful tee room, if it is actually too mass sprinkling, service ok if impersonal. had hot chocolate, which was nice, very rich. suppe and quiche were average, had not the cake. Perhaps the cakes are worth the visit, the rest of the food is not. you would better go to any other brasserie or bistro and pay less. View menu

One of the best experiences I enjoyed in Paris on the 2 weeks that I was there. Spent the entire day at the museum and got hungry and we got some food. The prices were worth it. Food was amazing. The hostess and the waiter...were extremely nice. It does help to greet them in French when walking in and when ordering food and drinks. At least say “Bon Soir” when walking in. Will definitely go back on my next trip. The view was amazing too!!! The deserts and coffee were so delicious!!!

We ordered two salads for lunch— classic Caesar and a duck liver salad— and each were 20+ euro. They were perfectly nice but just beware of the cost. We were tired from walking around for three hours previously and got sucked in here rather than...walking further on to the other cafes/restaurants. I probably wouldn't recommend this as there are very little options for the dining experience price, much more a coffee+cake sort of place. Not a complete no but definitely not a first choice for most people who are actually looking to eat. Will say that the staff were lovely, just really not the ideal place for a long trek through the Louvre.
