AMAZING

This restaurant was honestly so [censored] good. The French onion soup was incredible. It had delicious cheese and was very filling. The entree was also spectacular. Highly recommend.

Pros: All vegan, French onion soup, creme brûlée

Enttäuschend :-(

Aufgrund der positiven Bewertung sind wir erwartungsvoll in das Restaurant. Mir tut es leid dass ich es so bewerten muss aber ich war mega enttäuscht... Bedienung (ein Mann keine Frau wie auf der Internetseite) war sehr freundlich. unter fried vegetables hatte ich persönlich goldbraun gebackene Gemüse-Beignets erwartet... was kam war leider ein Teller voll Suppengemüse so weich gekocht wie für alte Leute im Heim. Dazwischen weicher Tofu. Dazu hatte ich Kartoffeln bestellt die dann aussahen wie spanische Kartoffeltortilla. Leider schmeckte auch alles wie vom Vortag. Es roch überhaupt nicht nach frisch gekochtem... deshalb meine ich alles wurde in der Mikrowelle aufgewärmt. Die Spinatlasagne definitiv. Das war auch TK Spinat?! Dies ist meine persönliche Meinung und Eindruck, jeder hat natürlich seinen eigenen Geschmack. Das Restaurant war komplett voll und ich hörte Deutsche sowie Einheimische denen es wohl sehr schmeckte. Muss jeder für sich testen und entscheiden!

Friendly staff

We had a pleasant evening at this restaurant. The staff was kind and helpful. Great to have so many vegan options. I particularly liked the chocolate mousse. The main courses were somewhat less spectacular.

Pros: Many vegan options, Kind staff

Cons: Expensive

Expensive but worth it

All-vegan restaurant, lots of options, with the nicest waiter. I had the chance to taste my first ever bourguignon, made of seitan. I highly recommend it, I thought it was worth the price (meals are a bit more expensive than other places). The restaurant is very popular, book in advance.

Pros: Tons of options, Cozy place, French cuisine

Cons: Expensive

The best vegan French food!

Seriously just go if you’re not on a budget. The French onion soup, creme brûlée and apple tart are beyond amazing. My wife and I got different entrees she got the savory crepe which was good but I was expecting it to be better and I got the roulé which was inanely good especially accompanied with the potatoes.

Real French cuisine

If you want to taste real traditional French dishes but in vegan style, you have to pay a lot of money. The price here is high, but the size of the dishes is actually big and everything is delicious. If you want to have a dinner here, be sure to reserve a table in advance.

Pros: Everything is vegan, Big portions, Near the Centre Pompidou

Cons: Expensive, Few tables

Disapointing

Yes, there is a lot of people, but no, it's not so good! It's just a vegan restaurant which tries to imitate french gastronomy with similis. It's not very tasty and quite expensive with 17-18 EUR for a main course.

nice little restaurant

Small vegan restaurant, french dishes, the staff was very nice and helpful; I had a great onion soup as a starter, can highly recommend the soup, the main course (bourgignon) wasn't the best vegan dish I've ever had but still very OK, for desert we had apricot-crème brulé which was good. Not the best vegan restaurant I've ever been to but still worth a visit.

Pros: Nice staff

Okay

I was a bit disappointed.

The place is really popular so you absolutely need to reserve a table. We were sitting outside in the cold because we forgot.

The soup was pretty good and the creme brulee too. The main dishes were okay but nothing special. I had the spinach lasagna and my boyfriend had the seitan red wine stew. For me it was too expensive.

The staff is really nice and the place is pretty central.

Pros: Lots of veganized French food

Cons: Very expensive

Very disappointed, don't be fooled

I really don't want to leave a negative review. However my girlfriend and I had read how great this place was, so we rang a day ahead to book a table.

After waiting all day (in which we read a lot of positive reviews of le Potager), we got to our reservation time.
We took, starters, main courses and a dessert.
The French onion soup was the highlight of the trip, the cheese inside it was very good.
The baked potato with olivada was not very impressive at all. It felt like a poorly cooked baked potato simply with some olivada on it. It is described as this in the menu, however we expected something more from the flavour.

Main courses we took the lasagna.
Very bland.
Spinach seemed to be from a frozen packet before being made into the lasagne.
The lasagne wasn't heated all the way through. We couldn't finish it. Very disappointing.
The seitan bourgogne was a little better. The gravy had some interesting flavours, however the seitan in it was very bland. It was fine, but was no where near worth its price.

Then we were Really looking forward to the creme brulee. We ordered one to Share.
It simply was some flavoured tofu. Was very lemony, and the texture was very firm. Not worth ordering.

After waiting so long for the experience, we both left disappointed. The place was expensive. Flavours were uneventful. General quality was below average. If we made some of these dishes to serve at home we would not be so happy with the outcome....

The staff were really lovely

Pros: French onion soup, The staff, very lovely

Cons: Expensive , Limited tables, need to book

Währschafte Kost

Das Restaurant ist klein und insofern speziell, dass es rustikal ist und urtypisches franz.Flair versprüht. Das Essen war ganz ok hat mich aber nicht umgehauen. Interessant war, dass einige trad.Gerichte veganisiert wurden und somit mal wieder Kartoffelgratin oder Seitan à la Bourgignon. Die Portionen sind gross und ihr Geld wert. Den grossen "Hype" um das Restaurant kann ich nicht ganz nachvollziehen, es ist aber durchaus eine Erfahrung wert.

Very nice dining experience!!

Dinner at @lapotagerdumarais
French onion soup with vegan cheese was very tasty and the hot cheese salad featured vegan goat cheese on French baguette. The salad had carrots, walnuts, tomato, sun dried tomatoes, cucumbers and a delicious dressing. Main was Bourguignon de Seitan, seitan stew in a red wine sauce with carrots and mushrooms. I opted for the French potatoes. Dessert was an upside down apple tart with whipped cream. Definitely need a reservation as they filled up at 7pm immediately upon opening and turned away multiple couples. Told us in advance that with the 7pm seating we had to leave at 8:30 which was fair although they opened about 10 minutes late so they didn't rush us out. If you want to sit longer get an 8:30pm reservation.

Really disappointing

The food is not good. We have been extremely fooled by all the positive comments. I went there on my birthday in order to celebrate. The food was terrible from main dish to dessert. We do not understand the success of this place : not good, crowded and expensive. Do not recommend.

Pros: Nice staff

Cons: Expensive, Terrible food

Couldn’t be better!

Such delicious all vegan food, a proper French restaurant experience with fantastic service. Plus the desserts are amazing !! Even though it’s tiny it’s more than worth the wait for a table.
