Café Paulette

A friend made a reservation for 5 for Sunday brunch. While we ended up being a party of 4, they didn't seat us until our full party arrived (I get it; especially during brunch - but there weren't any walk-in patrons waiting to dine in and we had a reservation!). Our server was an older woman who was very funny! She got our order down quickly and brought our drinks out shortly after. Most of our food was also brought out together, which was nice because we weren't waiting for long before we all dug in to our food. I had the waffle with the caramelized apples and fresh fruit. The apples weren't quite what I had expected and were definitely on the mushier side but they were still tasty with the waffle. The fresh pressed juice was also very good (though quite expensive for juice - at $8 a glass!) Within the hour, we had gotten close to finishing our food and wanted to continue chatting, but we got asked to leave to make space for a family that did not want to dine outdoors because it was chilly. So I guess the lesson is: eat slowly if you want to fully enjoy your time and company here.

Great food. Service was good and you feel like you're in France. My husband and I came here for dinner and it's a very cute, cozy French bistro spot. The service was great. The staff were attentive. We ordered the pate, which is our least favorite as it was a bit bland and tasteless but we really enjoyed the steak frites and duck. The sides that accompanied it especially the salad was a secondary star to the dish.

My friend suggested we go to this French restaurant when she found out I have stressful week ahead. I didn't expected to like this place as much as I do. I ordered a cup of drip coffee and Eggs Benedict. My portion of the bill was $29 including tips. I don't know if it's because the waitress saw I was taking a lot of pictures hence she was more attentive to us or what. I have to admit the service was 10/10. The dish and coffee receive two thumbs up from me too.

A beautiful French restaurant tucked away in Fort Greene! It's great for small groups of 2-4, and would be perfect for a date.The food was excellent -- we tried the burrata, mussels and steak tartare. My impression is that the French entrees were by far the best: the burrata was good, but the tartare was packed with flavor and texture.Service was also super attentive: during the meal I chortled and snuffed out the candle several times, and without fail the servers always relit it!

I came here for brunch with friends on a recent visit Brooklyn. We didn't have a reservation on a Saturday (a risky move), but they were able to seat us outside, which was lovely. I ordered the croque madame, which was very tasty, and incredibly filling. I didn't even finish the fries, which is really saying something because I love French fries. The fries weren't my favorite (they could have been crispier), but the sandwich itself was fantastic. Service was friendly and quick.

I got the classic eggs Benedict and a Bloody Mary. It was good but nothing special. It was easy to get in on a Sunday afternoon, but was definitely crowded. The service was decent and the ambiance was loud.

The cutest local restaurant in fort Greene. The food was amazing!!!! Steak frites so good. And the summer salad was to die for. The escargot was also very tasty.

Went here with my partner for Valentine's Day. We were seated promptly in the heated outside area and started with a wonderful bottle of red wine our server recommended and a half dozen oysters which were great. For dinner, we split one of the specials of the night, a raclette cheese dish. Everything about it was amazing and it arrived quickly. We dessert we had a cake to go (I believe this was also one of the specials) which was incredible. The staff was helpful, friendly and prompt. The vibes inside seemed great too and we hope to return Fabian soon as well as check out their sister wine bar next door. Wonderful experience overall.

I went to this restaurant with my boyfriend for our anniversary and it was overall a great experience! We arrived a bit early to our reservation but the server was able to fit us in, which was great! When we walked in, the overall vibe I got of the place was a bit loud and crowded, however super intimate. We started off with the house salmon gravlax and it was delicious. The salmon tasted fresh and buttery on top of the provided bruschetta was excellent. The sparkling Chardonnay accompanied the house salmon gravlax well. The house brioche was warm and toasted perfectly. The waiter noticed we finished all our house brioche and even provided us more.For entrees, I ordered the mussels and my boyfriend ordered the chicken and we both enjoyed our meals. There were a lot of mussels so I thought it was well worth the meal. The fries were also good. My boyfriend thought the sauce that accompanied his chicken well. We ended our meal with a crème brulee and we thought it tasted great! Super creamy and the caramelized sugar was sweet and crunchy! Overall, I think this place is a great for a date night out. If you're ever in the area, I would suggest you try!

Comfy, delicious, not rushed. I went for brunch with my son. I had the omelette of the day, which was an excellent ratatouille omelette. It would have been five stars except I had to chase down my waiter several times. They rarely checked in. Maybe it was because I was behind a pillar?? I would definitely go back!
