Fresh Market Restaurant

Food was great, service however...makes the experience bad to the point of not wanting to return. So we were in Paris during our Anniversary for the day and decided to go to a non chain restaurant before heading home. Having never been to the establishment and knowing nothing about it I had middle of the road expectations that I have for any given place to be considered satisfactory. We showed up a few minutes before they opened and were seated quickly as one of maybe 3 families there. By time we left seriously 2 hours later there was a long wait time and packed lobby.we watched as guests who sat down after us received their food, ate and left before we ever received our salad and then our food. We were visibly displeased by the 3rd occasion of a group receiving their food before we received our salad even. When the salad came for my wife and mine to my 6 year old I asked our waiter when the food would be coming out, at least for the kids. He proceeded to explain the procedure of food order gets put in once you receive your salad. By this time my 2 year old who has managed to be well behaved is starting to loose focus. I understand that procedure, IF it actually works. It apparently does not work. IF your kitchen is efficient enough to handle cooking the food once the salad is delivered for fast non pressured flow of food, then do it. I would say this place can do it...if the right people are doing it. My server apparently can not do it at the very least. Others were seen bringing his tables food out here and there which leads me to believe it was on him that the service failed and not the set up of how the system is supposed to run. He failed the system, which then failed the customer, which has failed to make them want to return.

I have never been here before I always pass by this restaurant while I'm in Paris, it is absolutely amazing honestly. The Servers/cashiers were very very Generous they deserve tips and so much respect, the food was very Delicious and worth the price you pay, the plate sizes are big and it's not too pricey at all!! Will most definitely come here more often I recommend coming to this Restaurant if you're ever in Paris 💞
