Monsieur Benjamin

Quality French restaurant not far from the performing arts area of the city. Modern ambiance with well prepared dishes. The potato croquette appetizer was not very good, under-seasoned and looked like it was not house-made. The butter lettuce salad was huge, easily enough for 2, but the baked brie was vary tasty. The flounder stuffed with spinach was excellent with a delicious sauce. The quail pie filling was really tasty as was the pie crust. The steak frites was a little disappointing, the steak was undercooked (sent it back) and the portion of fries was way too big. The steak tasted good though. Serving staff were excellent, attentive and friendly. Overall a good dining experience if a bit pricey.

The service was good; friendly and attentive staff. Our appetizers (sea scallops, bone marrow, and oysters) were tasty but not memorable. Our entrees (short ribs, steak frites, and duck) were fantastic - nothing left on our plates. We also enjoyed the chocolate souffle dessert with banana ice cream. The coffee was perfect. My bill for 3 people was $400.

We had dinner here tonight before going to the opera and it was a really good experience. The service was good and the food was excellent. I ordered the duck leg confit and my husband ordered the steak frites. My duck was cooked perfectly and tasted so good. I really enjoyed it. I would definitely go back for that again.

Ignore the negative reviews, we had unbelievable service and the food was on another level! You’d be hard beat to find many restaurants in Paris delivering this standard. We visited on a Sunday and there was a line of hungry regulars waiting to get stuck in. Really convenient location and the big windows and open kitchen, make for a very enjoyable dinning experience. Can’t wait to go back!

Been to this restaurant several times now and each visit has not disappointed! In fact the experience has just kept giving. The food is amazing and the staff’s attention to detail is 1st class. So if you live in SF or are just visiting, MB is a must on your dine out list for sure ! Can’t wait to go back !!

We had a wonderful dining experience in Monsieur Benjamin. All the staffs are nice & attentive. We tried many appetizers without main dish & everything taste super yummy. Few things from our recommendation Crab Rillette Sea Scallop Steak Tartare Chicken Liver ( so smooth) Croquette We had lunch and it's almost full so reservation might be the best. 20% charge is already included. Overall it's a 5 stars experiences.

My group walked in to grab dinner before going to the orchestra. The restaurant was almost entirely full, and it sounded like it had a long reservation list. The hostess asked if we’d be willing to sit at the bar with all the tables being taken, we didn’t mind. It wasn’t a long wait from there, and it wasn’t super loud. My companions’ shared the bass, and I got the steak and mashed potatoes. The mashed potatoes were super smooth, and the steak was so easy to cut. I got the “Raspberry Beret” to drink, it wasn’t super strong, sweet, or sour. My companion liked the red wine they had, and thought the bass was a bit salty. I saw the waitresses writing anniversary and birthday cards (presumably for guests) next to us at the counter. They seem to be up for celebration acknowledgments. The bartender served us complimentary Vermouth shots after dinner. They were spiced, yet tasteful. Overall, a nice and accommodating restaurant with a hefty price tag.
