Excellent food and service. Noise levels are a little high but that’s because the restaurant was full and people were enjoying themselves. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Paris

Definitely our worst night out in Paris. It may have been open tables fault, as the restaurant did not have our reservation, despite me having the confirmation email. The restaurant sat us anyway, which was nice, but proceeded with the worst, rudest service we had in all of Paris. For fair food at a relatively high price, they acted like they were the best place in town.

The food was predictably good . The waiter was attentive but the service was a little slow. It was good but not outstanding.

Starters arrived 40 minutes after our order was taken. Table near us who arrived 10 mins after we did had finished their mains at this point. Our waiter seemed confused, twice brought us food that we didn’t order. When our starters did appear, on 2 were brought to us. We had to prompt for the 3rd which they found on top of the flambé shelf just next to us. No idea who put it there. Mains also took a bit of time but they were great, the coq was truly fantastic, best I’ve had in Paris. Had to order just one dessert before we finished our mains as we were had a train to catch and simply ran out of time due to the long wait for food. We spent 1 hr 45 mins there which should have been enough time to enjoy a 3 course meal if service was a bit more brisk like you would expect in a brasserie. Would we go back? Yes. As the food was great. But next time we will allow ourselves 3 hours.

We visited for lunch on a Monday. The place was full and the buzz was brilliant. There's a lot to choose from on the menu. We were made to feel very welcome and the service was fantastic. A very lovely Parisian experience.

Der Restaurant Bescuh bleibt leider deutlich hinter den Erwartungen zurück. Der Service war unfreundlich und unaufmerksam. Von Rest. Bofinger darf man deutlich mehr erwarten. Das Essen war in Ordnung, jedoch kein kulinarisches Erlebnis. Es blieb hinter den Erwartungen zurück. Einen weiteren Besuch im Bofinger plane ich nicht.
