Roger la Grenouille

Was so excited to try frog legs and really wanted to love it. But sadly the food was a flop. The restaurant itself is located in a side off the bustling Saint German de pres. The wait staff was very nice. But the food was just plain meh.

We ordered many dishes to share:
- endive salad, it was ok, very heavy cream sauce with a lot of blue cheese
- escargot, it was not what I expected and did not love this
- fried frog legs, the legs were such small pieces dunked in a lot of breading which I ended up removing!
- eggplant toast, this was good!
- dorade fish, did not taste very fresh with a very bland cream and fennel purée
- razor clams, was not very fresh and very sandy (clearly did not clean it very well)

Overall, the food was a total miss for me. The service and location was great.

When in Paris.... Gotta have some frogs legs right? So honestly the frogs legs here were pretty damn good. The steak frites was eh. Maybe I just didn't order the right thing. Anyway... if you want to try some frogs legs...

Very hidden restaurant, but I highly recommend coming. I ordered 6 escargots, caramelized ribs, and crème brûlée. It was my first time trying escargots and they surpassed expectations-- highly recommend!! The caramelized ribs were also super delicious; the meat was juicy and tender. The crème brûlée was pretty disappointing, wouldn't order it again. Staff was nice

Excellent service and a delicious meal! Definitely recommend the frog leg starters. The chicken main dish was fantastic! 10/10 from me

One of my favorite restaurants in Paris, my family has eaten here for three generations and whenever we visit the city we always make it a point to stop by.

This review is not about the food - just the hours/service. We tried to go here for lunch on a Friday and found that the restaurant was not open when we initially got there at noon and an hour later when we swung by after shopping. Not sure if the hours on the website were wrong or if they just simply did not want to open the restaurant for lunch that day. Either way it was very disappointing experience to say the least.

Excellent. Almost like dining around 80 years ago. From service to wine no complaints.

The lamb chops were the best cooked to a medium that you never get anywhere else. Frog legs delicious.

We booked on the day but I'd book ahead as it was very busy.

We went to Paris for about a week and we're excited for the food. Out of all the restaurants we went to, this was the BEST. It's a quaint restaurant in the Latin Quarter. It felt like it was hidden as it was in a small street. We had a reservation and were quickly seated. The restaurant only had one waiter and he was excellent. He spoke English and French and was patient with me as a I tried using my beginner's French to order. We ordered a red wine and an old fashioned. We made one order of the snails, fried frog legs, pork ribs, and hanger steak. My husband is a picky eater and was skeptical about the snails and frog legs, but after trying them he helped me finish both plates. We talked about the frog legs the rest of the trip and ordered them at other places. Nothing compared to Roger's. Everything was savory, well-seasoned, and filling. The only thing I regret is not making a second reservation for a later day. I already recommended this spot to friends and will def go in my next visit.

I visited this restaurant on 2 separate occasions and years and have had the same issue each time. The guy is RUDE my first visit I brushed it off as his annoyance for my 8pm reservation this time however I left. Just unnecessarily nasty.

This was one of our best meals in Paris!

Even before I start describing the food I should mention the very French ambience, cobblestone pathway that leads to this small restaurant that overlooks a courtyard, a beautiful space altogether. The service was also one of the best we've had in Paris, there was only one server (it's a small place and only two tables including ours were occupied for lunch) and he was extremely friendly and attentive.

The food... OMG! This time I went to Paris on a mission to try frog legs and the preparation here did not disappoint! We started out with some appetizers, fried frog legs served with three sauces, a red wine sauce that was the best I've had, a garlic sauce that is recommended and boy does it pair well and a basic mayo that was good too. We also had the escargot that was prepared in not the traditional way that most restaurants in Paris do but a red wine reduction that was delicious.

For my main dish, I had the beef tartare that was the best I've had in Paris. It was well seasoned and the beef was high quality, superb altogether! Mr. H had the frog prepared in garlic and herbs, it was absolutely delicious and I wish I could have had both dishes.

Highly recommend this place, the food will not disappoint! Best place to try frog legs!
