steak au poivre in Paris
3 places for steak au poivre in Paris, picked by creators — with what they said.
- Bistrot Paul Bert — Mark Wiens, Les Frenchies
He called the pepper sauce "one of the best sauces for meat I've ever had in my life," and singled out the meltingly tender filet steak, the freshly fried potatoes that arrived still radiating heat, and an intensely fragrant morel-and-egg dish as the highlights.
Heads up: He went with a noon reservation — booking is required, and at €203.50 for three people, it's on the pricey side. - Bistrot Des Tournelles — TOPJAW
- Vaudeville — Messinger Guides
Praised the lively 'organized chaos' created by the clatter of cutlery and efficient waiters instead of music, the ornate decor, and reliable French classics, singling out the île flottante served in crème anglaise for special praise.
Heads up: Noted it's so popular it was fully booked even on a Tuesday evening in February, making reservations essential, and warned not to expect red-carpet service.
