Restaurant La Gauloise

About

La Gauloise is a quintessential Parisian brasserie that has been delighting diners since the early 1900s, right on 15 th arrondissement’s La Motte‑Picquet, a stone’s throw from the Eiffel Tower and Champ‑de‑Mars. The restaurant’s interior is a carefully preserved homage to classic French décor – antique wood paneling, vaulted ceilings with ornate moldings, and plush red velvet banquettes that create an intimate, timeless ambience. Each seat is served by friendly staff who speak up to seven languages, ensuring a warm welcome for both locals and international visitors. At the heart of La Gauloise is its genuine French cuisine made from fresh, seasonal ingredients. Signature dishes such as coq au vin, sole meunière, and the legendary crêpes Suzette exemplify the restaurant’s commitment to culinary excellence, while additional creations like moules de bouchot and steak frites have become crowd favorites. In the summer months, diners can move to the shaded outdoor terrace, overlooking Parisian streets, for a relaxed lunch or a starlit dinner. Business patrons benefit from a dedicated private salon and mixed‑group capabilities, while couples and families are drawn to the authentic, cozy setting. The menu’s simplicity and clarity—entrée‑plus‑plat or entrée‑plus‑plat‑dessert—make it a go‑to spot for both occasional visits and everyday meals. The restaurant’s online reservation system via Zenchef is available for those who wish to secure a table, especially during peak periods, but walk‑ins are also welcomed. For those planning a business meal or special event, La Gauloise offers flexible private dining options that can accommodate up to 140 guests, making it an ideal venue for corporate affairs and celebrations alike.
