“ Located in a very nice area in the 3rd circle of Paris. Beautiful park across the street to have an idea of what family life is in Paris. We ordered some traditional French dishes with mixed results. The Pattee was delicious, well balanced and silky. The onion soup was well presented, the cheese melted but the broth was a bit bland which I fixed with a little pepper. And beef bourguignon was just ok. The meat was tough for a dish that is supposed to be very tender and they added broccoli which it is not part of the dish. Overall a good experience with good service. ”

“ Of course we came here to try their hot chocolate, as it was right down the street from our airbnb. We got two hot chocolates, a crepe and a croissant. Hot chocolate was very nice especially with the cream so the chocolate flavor is not too strong. The croissant and crepe were nice. The food was expensive but that's what you get when you go somewhere that's trending. If I remember correctly, it was $12 for one hot chocolate but you get a pitcher with more hot chocolate so it's not just one cup at that price. Was definitely worth it though. The service was alright, we sat there a while waiting for the waitress. After we got our order in we got our drinks and food quick. The ambiance was nice, you sit pretty close to people but that's typical in European countries. The street wasn't too busy (~9am) and not too many people walking on the sidewalk. ”

“ Went for brunch and they exceeded my expectations. I had the brunch fixed menu which included a hot drink, fresh juice, pastry, toast, scrambled eggs, and a roll. So lots of bread, but if you're in Paris, do as the Parisians! I had the cappuccino, pain au chocolat, and grapefruit juice for my choices. The pain au chocolat was divine, cappuccino perfect, and the scrambled eggs were rich, creamy, so good! Also, the portion was so large you could really share this between 2 people and order another cappuccino. I kept thinking about this meal all day. So, I took my husband the next day for lunch. He had the Entrecôte angus (steak), fries, and green beans. I had Filet de bar ( fish) with veggies and a pesto sauce. The portions are huge and price very reasonable. Everything seasoned well and cooked well. For dessert, we had the Saint honoré, a mini Pate Chou. So so good! Crispy caramel, light puff, light cream. I want this dessert again. We also ordered macarons which were good, but were slightly on the crispy side- could be chewier. Overall, I would go back if I had more time in Paris. If you pure looking for nice casual ambiance, courteous service, reasonable prices, large portions, delicious food, this is the place. ”

“ My wife has followed Carette on Instagram so we knew it was going to be good. It was excellent! We were there for a small bite in between tours and we are certainly happy we stopped by. First, the neighborhood where Carrette is located is very pleasant with a park across the street full people enjoying the weather in Paris. The staff welcomed us and sat us quickly next to a young lady finishing her dinner (late lunch?). We ordered a dessert (a pastry with hazelnut cream) and three finger sandwiches (ham and tuna)- they ran out of chicken finger sandwiches, unfortunately. Everything was first rate and delicious. The tuna can be a hit or real miss and it was scrumptious. The hazelnut dessert was great. Our waiter was very nice and his English was far better than our French. We will be back! As for the nice young lady we sat next to: she turned out to be an American living in Paris. She was so very kind to us all and we appreciated her taking the time to converse with us about her time in Paris. To say the least, she was very impressive and humble at the same time which is unique. Enchante! ”

“ Who knew a plate of scrambled eggs can be that good? This restaurant is really popular and I had an amazing and filling meal here. Thankfully, when we arrived there wasn't a line but still had to wait about 5 mins. A line quickly formed behind us - we got lucky! I ordered the scrambled eggs with ham and it was delicious. It was cooked to perfection and it was so creamy. They ran out of croissants so I had to settle for the chocolate pastry roll. It was still good. I also wanted to try the onion soup so I got that as well to share. And of course I had to order the hot chocolate. It is a must! It's so rich and chocolately. It wasn't too sweet and was perfect with the cream that it came with. Don't miss out on trying Carette when in Paris. :) ”
