Presentation of the steak tartare could have been better. Watching it being made was great but just a mound on the plate not so much. A bit of garnish is all it needed. Wonderful flavor though.

Classy atmosphere. Classic Parisian vibes. Ordered the smoked salmon, leeks, beef bourguignon and soufle. Waiter was kind and attentive. Food was good, but the cost of the food did not meet the expectations provided. For something in the price of this restaurant, a lower cost could be found for the same quality food.

Ah, Chez Josephine Dumonet — the kind of place that makes you feel like you should whisper in hushed, reverent tones about “classic Parisian dining.” And honestly, it was good… but for 180 euros at lunch, I expected to walk out a changed man, possibly fluent in French and emotionally moved by beef. That didn’t quite happen. We started with the morel mushroom appetizer, which was phenomenal. Creamy, rich, earthy — basically everything mushrooms dream of being when they grow up. I could’ve stopped there, dropped the mic, and declared victory. But then came the mains. I had the beef bourguignon, and my wife went with the filet. Both were solid — comforting, traditional, and fine — but that’s about where the fireworks ended. For a restaurant with this much reputation (and this much butter), I was waiting for that “oh my word” bite that never quite arrived. Don’t get me wrong — it’s good food. It’s just not 180-euros-for-lunch good. You can absolutely find meals in Paris that’ll wow your taste buds and leave you enough cash for a Seine-side bottle of wine afterward. So, yes, Chez Josephine Dumonet is a lovely stop if you want to say you’ve done it — but if you’re chasing a truly unforgettable Parisian meal, there are better ways to spend your euros (and your calories). Rating: 7/10 — the morels stole the show, the mains politely attended.
