Le Tambour

We check in our AIRBNA on the 1st day & we discover Le Tambour. This place was literally a view from our place. It's a 1min (across from us). We decided to try it and wow! We had an amazing 1st meal on the 1st day checking in & a big bonus our waiter was honest & intuitive. The ribeye with peppercorn sauce was absolute delicious. Overall we highly recommended & will be back before we leave.

Le Tambour is beautifully decorated on the inside and out. The staff were attentive and are also English speaking. The menu had many options including two vegan ones. I opted for the curry vegetables which had carrots and zucchini in a coconut curry sauce. I found it to be flavorless and used the salt and pepper at my table. The drinks were incredible. My friend enjoyed her meal and drinks as well.

More of a bar. This restaurant under former owners was well know french restaurant serving classic french food. Under new management it is basically a dive bar. The menu is sparse and it is for tourists looking for the French restaurant experience. In the past they had very traditional food that one could choose from. Wine was charged by how much you drank of the bottle and the food was excellent. My experience last night was horrific. I had a hamburger that was not even turned over to cook the other side so it was quite rare. My husband was served a steak that was minuscule compared to the regular dinner plate the fries were good but the but the regular food was abysmal. If you're looking for a place to have a fancy drink, this will do but avoid eating there.

This was the fourth time I had eaten at le tambour, originally in 2016. This time was different, it had lost all of its quirkiness and several favourite items off of the menu, such as the bone marrow pictured above.

Food was still decent, service was "interesting", food was still good but it wasn't le Tambour I fell in love with. I have moved on.

Hooray! We joked that this was our favorite restaurant in Paris, just due to the fact that the kids ate their food. We got them omelets and a side of hummus, and they wolfed it down. For the adults, we had bowls which were very Japanese inspired. Lots of edamame, rice, and a sweet soy sauce dressing. Honestly, this place was great. Set on a leafy part of the street, the people watching was outstanding. The staff was very kind and busily serving the other tables which seemed packed with locals. Merci!

Very welcoming, especially with our very limited French vocabulary. Had the prime rib and onion soup, both were good.

I ate here a long time ago, and I could never remember the name of the place till I found an old sketch pad from my time in Paris and there's a sketch from this restaurant! Le Tambour. The pretty French girl I was with said it was a very local kind of place. We ate and drank wine and kissed. It was lovely. Ah. Paris.

It was ok. I asked for a medium steak, parts were very rare. My friends had the duck and they said it was ok. 2/3 of us gave this place a 3 of 5, I would've given it only 2.
Overall 3 of 5.

This place deserves to be getting a much higher star ratings!! The cofit duck is great and so is the chicken .

I used to eat here in the past and liked it but the quality of the food has declined dramatically and it has to do with the quality of the ingredients. Service a bit disorganised, bread will come if you ask for it, and you then have to ask for the butter, etc.. not to mention the appallingly disgusting toilet that hasn't seen water and soap since the revolution, still! These however are minor faux pas, if the food were great, but sadly I ordered the steak which is one of the most expensive things on the menu, and it was absolute rubbish, hard, rubbery and tasteless. Frozen meat from a bottom end people's market would have been better than what I ate.

Sad as I remember having good solid French food here some 15 years ago!
