If you want to have good pizza while enjoying the views of the Seine and Notre Dame, then Pizza Marzano is the place to go. The waitress was really friendly and the service was great.

We had the Le Rosse Caprina pizza (pizza with a tomato sauce). It was a vegetarian pizza and was delicious. They also do Le Bianche pizzas which are pizzas with a white cream sauce base.

Even though we were sharing a pizza, the waitress brought it out already cut in half and on two plates. That was a nice touch! The baked mushrooms with mini dough balls were a good starter.

I would return to this restaurant because of its location, scenic views, the tasty pizzas and the great service.

We had good cafe cremes (latte) at this bistro. The croissants that we had were fresh and they were big too.

The seating area if you are having just drinks is at the front of the cafe and the back is for if you are ordering food.

The waiter was friendly and we enjoyed relaxing in this cafe. The view was nice over the place de la Republique.

A good Belgian restaurant in the middle of Paris. The moules mariniere, mussels in a white wine sauce, were cooked perfectly. The chunky chips were great too but what made them even tastier was the thick good quality mayonnaise. The bread that was served was freshly cut from the baguettes!

To finish the meal, the pistachio ice cream was nice. The waiter tried to convince me to have two scoops of ice cream (another flavour), but wasn’t disappointed when I settled for the one scoop. The cafe creme (latte) was good too.

A cafe that had a pub like atmosphere. The waiters were friendly and greeted us with a smile. It had a wide screen TV showing the news to keep you occupied.

The cafe creme (latte) was very nice. Saw some of the hot food that other customers were having and it looked of good quality. 

The downfall to this cafe was that it was so close to the fish and vegetable market stalls. So every now and then, you would get the smell of fish wafting into the cafe.

A nice and friendly restaurant which had seasonal additions to its menu. This month was the ravioli month so we decided that they should be sampled.

The first time at this restaurant, we had the mint, basil, tomato and ricotta tortellini which tasted really good. We also had the grilled vegetables (aubergine, red pepper and courgette) and matchstick potatoes (fries). The little ciabatta rolls were fresh and just the right amount to go with the meal.

The service was really good and on our second visit, the waiter remembered how we liked our coffee (with additional hot milk). This was one of the few restaurants that gave us chocolate to go with the coffee.

We tried the ratatouille ravioli as well which was not a disappointment. Unfortunately the dessert chocolate ravioli was chewy and we wouldn’t recommend it.

All in all, a great restaurant with good quick service and tasty food.
