"Les Arlots is a perfectly pleasant, small bistro in the marginal 10th. While reports point to gentrification, it isn’t yet intuitive that one walks the streets in complete comfort, although any such concerns are probably unjustified. Very small, 28 seats, 22 in the street front main barroom, an unlucky 6 in the corridor between the kitchen and dining room. Earnest, dedicated, frenetic staff, friendly and bilingual. Largely French middle class, plus what seem like young neighborhood regulars. Small blackboard menu. Not unlike 25 others of similar character and history. For inexplicable reasons, Les Arlots hit the February New York Times lottery, followed by the Alex Lobrano blog and the Financial Times. Must have been a slow news day. Why and how some restaurants experience such remarkable and unique good luck while others languish for years in obscurity remains a mystery of the food (and journalism) worlds.FoodFive or so enticing first courses: white asparagus, beef cheek terrine, beet salad, fresh pea soup. Of the plats, the most popular, a house made sausage, was out by the time we ordered. Dish after dish appeared all around us at tables which ordered earlier. With a choice of five, being out of one at 8:45 is a serious failure. That left entrecote, cod or lemon sole meunière on the bone, but easy to filet, drenched in too much butter. For dessert, wonderful cheese plate, chocolate mousse or strawberry crumble. No wine list per se. Sommelier/manager asks what you would like, brings to the table several options, all reasonable in price. Our Cahors was right on at 29€.ServiceFriendly and totally in keeping with the intended character of the restaurant, but frantic. Hold onto the silver and pass the plates. PriceA la carte. Very reasonable. Entrees 10€- 16€; plats 22€; desserts 9€. For 2, 124€."

Simple bistro with rustic decor that offers a reducted but qualitative map. The ox lasagna was very good. She's made home, we smell the freshness of the pate. A very good address to eat good and fresh without ruining.

A very good home-made kitchen, classic but very well executed. The fish cooking was on top, the dessert was delicious. The frame is sober and rustic but we eat well. In short, I enjoyed myself even though at the beginning I had come to taste the one saying best purée sausage from Paris according to fooding. Dessert dish at 23€. I recommend if we're not many because the room is small. Language of calf input

Like so many others, went here due to the NY Times article first night in Paris. Made a reservation through concierge at Westin Vendome, our hotel, for opening time. Enjoyed ourselves immensely. Yes, very cozy; yes lots of help with menu on chalkboard; yes, solid wine choices. Both had sausage/mash and chocolate mouse. Best ever for both. Sausage was a combo of three meats. Yes, a fair number of other Americans were there, too. Place was full and turning away people 45 mins later. Lots of character and the owners are wonderful welcoming personalities.

Lunch at the restaurant was an outstanding experience. The daily menu is listed on a board and it reflects seasonal options as well as the Chef's favorites. The Chef's creativity is visible in the food presentation and infused in each of the dishes. The portions are very generous. The staff was friendly and attentive even after the place was completely full. The wine options are great as are the prices. Reservations are essential for both lunch and dinner. The restaurant is very popular with locals. Don't miss this amazing gem. We look forward to going back.

My initial lunch visit in November was for their fabled interpretation of bangers & mash (saucisse purée), which is excellent but now only available evenings and weekends. Instead you have a choice of a few starters, two main courses and some dessert, always with a twist or an unexpected flavor and beautifully served. By January you may start feeling fed up with different kind of squash, but their 'sauce aux potimarrons' was really different. The space has not grown any larger though, so don't go here for intimate or confidential conversations - go to enjoy yourself!

Just before the Paris Marathon, I agreed to treat our daughter and some friends who were running in the marathon to dinner. Les Arlots was recommended. I advised them that one of our party was blind (yes, he ran in the marathon, too). Couldn't have been nicer. Good suggestions on the meal. I had octopus appetizer and duck. Octopus was sliced thinly (looked like carpaccio, really) and duck was great. They also helped with a good wine within our price range. I used my broken French but there was a waitress who had worked in VT so she explained everything to us. Small place but nice and easy walk from Metro.

A colleague who lives in Paris took me to this restaurant: it's a few moments away from Gare du Nord. My colleague says that the place is really getting a good reputation and on this showing (he's also been before and knows others who go there regularly and says it is consistently excellent) you can see why. The atmosphere was great, the food was absolutely superb, the service was friendly and excellent, and we left the choice of wine to the staff, who knew exactly what to bring for each course. The menu is sensibly small - four or five choices for each course - and is written onto a blackboard. What comes out of the kitchen is really classy. Eat here: you will not be disappointed. But do re...

Tried out Les Arlots after reading an article at NYTimes.The place was small, around 30 pax capacity, simply decorated, but exuding warmth and friendly ambience.We tried out the homemade sausage as our appetizer, and ordered the codfish confit, slow cooked beef cheek and cabbage and aged entrecote for our main courses. All the main course were very good. My favorite was the homemade sausage. Juicy, meaty and flavorful. The jus accompanying the dish was very very tasty. Yummm. The entrecote steak were also very flavorful. Ours were slightly overcooked, but still very good. The beef cheek was so tender it fell apart once our fork touched it. So good.For dessert we ordered the chocolate tart wi...
