Nestled in the vibrant heart of Paris at 127 rue de Rennes, Le Saint Placide offers a quintessential French dining experience that combines authentic flavors with a cozy, inviting atmosphere. This charming bistro is renowned for its warm service, delectable dishes, and a location that puts you within walking distance of iconic attractions like Le Bon Marché and Saint-Germain-des-Prés.

Walked in. Service very friendly. Enjoyed the duck confit. Better to sit outside as the smoke is concentrated inside.

Love, love, love. The BEST creme brûlée in Paris. Great service. Friendly people. They appreciated that we made an effort to speak French, but were very accommodating in English. The atmosphere is wonderful and we went back before leaving. Tourists: this is THE BEST croque monsieur you'll have in Paris. Go, go, go.

Great ambiance for a casual dinner with friends or family. The service was wonderful as the waiter was attentive and speedy. They had a great selection of entrees that differed from many of the adjacent cafes. I would recommend this place for small groups and couples.

Solo dined here as a tourist and absolutely loved it! The staff was super friendly and constantly checked in on me. It's situated at the corner right in front of the Metro, perfect for people watching. Ordered duck confit and French onion soup and it filled up my warm belly. I would definitely return again the next time I visit Paris. It's easily walkable from Le Bon Marche and lots of shopping around.

My partner and I ate here on our last night in Paris unplanned as the bistro looked inviting and the menu agreeable. Located on a busy corner in a great neighborhood  (Montparnasse) it competes with two other bistros on the same corner and it's always busy. Finding a table inside or on the sidewalk never seems to be a problem and one is welcomed and seated quickly. We were greeted by Julian and sat outside amongst other Parisiens. He brought out complimentary homemade potato chips that had no taste and stale.  We ordered the veal  Milanese with linguine and chicken escalope with pasta in a mushroom sauce. The veal came out on metallic hot plate with the pasta. Both food came out warm, tasty and delicious. The Parmesan came out shredded just how I like it. All in all was a good meal and highly recommend this place.

Located along Rue de Rennes in the 6th arrondissement of Paris, this cafe values comfort, generous portions, and quality service. We were pleasantly surprised to see a pretty extensive dinner menu, with a wide range of options to choose from. 

Popular attractions in this area include Le Bon Marché, Le Jardin du Luxembourg, Les Deux Magots, Tour Montparnasse, and Saint-Germain-des-Prés. The cafe has a cool, dark aesthetic, with wooden furniture and black painted walls. Seating is plentiful inside and out, with chairs facing the street for people-watching. We sat outside in the patio area, under the awning. Communicating in English was a breeze, and Visa/Mastercard is accepted.

If you're visiting for a small bite, you will find crepes, Croque Madame, croissants, ice cream, and other cafe items. Main course items included appetizers (escargot), salads, meat dishes, seafood, and pasta. 

Hamburger maison was a wonderful combination of cereal bread, a thick juicy patty, served with a side of salad and fries. Fish & chips tasted good as expected, with a nice crispy batter. Penne pasta with salmon is decent choice. A majority of the dishes are around or above €15. 

Choosing a place to eat on this road is hard, with many cafes, brasseries, and restaurants to choose from. I would recommend walking around and check out the menus, which are almost always posted outside. Le Trait d'Union and L'Horizon are across the street, and seem more popular. I found that Le Saint Placide was quieter, but a more relaxing environment with simple yet solid dinner options.

Open early with amazing customer service! With a warm and inviting atmosphere, the staff made me feel welcome. The restaurant offers fair pricing and does not try and take advantage of the language difference. 

The food is delicious, with freshly squeezed orange juice and chocolate-topped cappuccinos that will ensure that you start your Parisian adventures on a good note!

Quick service - and they speak English. The breakfast was fresh and quick at a reasonable price. Loved the fresh squeezed orange juice and the decaf coffee was surprisingly flavorful. 

We stayed at the Holiday Inn across the street and made this a quick 15min stop before leaving the city.

My mom and I came for a late dinner one evening around 9. I find that when I travel abroad I tend to crave a big healthy salad. (Maybe it was all the sugary waffles and buttery croissants...) Once we saw the menu, we were hooked.

We split a salad and some pasta. I also ordered a glass of wine. (When it's only like 4 euros a glass, how can you not?) The pasta was decent, but the salad was our fav. We decided to end the meal with a mini dessert sampler and espresso. The espresso was good, but the desserts weren't worth it. I'd rather have some churros or a grand marnier and Nutella crepe from a street vendor (don't judge). 

The service was great. Overall a very pleasant experience.

They speak english, which was fine, I ordered the supreme and it was okay. Nothing out of the ordinary. 

My mom ordered an omelette with ham, but got an omelette with cheese. We sent it back, and then got a burnt omelette back. Like the chef got angry at us for wanting to correct the mistake? 

I cant really call it anything else other than bad service.

The waitress was fine, though! Spoke english well, and was understanding. She even removed the bad dish from our tab, so 3 stars for that in itself.

Thanks for the read!
