We got here early at 12 and were the first customers. The service was great and the staff is very kind. We had the $31 lunch option and got main course and desert. The food was good and the steak was well cooked to a medium (which in my country would be medium rare). The atmosphere was alright, the cow vibe isn’t for everyone and it didn’t help that we were the only ones there. The desert was alright, my crème brule had to much sugar and not all was melted. My partners apple desert was however amazing!

Just ok. This is our 3rd night in Paris and this is the last on the list so far. The highlight was the double chocolate mousse. That was excellent. Otherwise the food was not better than any other place nearby. The owner took a bit of advantage of us as well which is annoying. He brought free still water to the table outside (as is typical in Paris, we have not paid for water yet) and instead brought us glass bottled still water and charged 9 euros each bottle. He should be fined for highway robbery. I had a feeling when I saw $16 for a classic Americano beverage that this was that type of place. Really soured the experience. With SO many other great places to go in Paris or even on the island I would not recommend this one. One should be able to enjoy dinner without having to wonder if you’re getting scammed.

Here I had probably the best dinner during my stay in Paris. Despite our arrival quite late, we were greeted by the stuff amd managed to try some classics of french cuisine deliciously prepared: the Oeuf et Bourguingnon and Confit de Canard were unbelievably tasty and well prepared.

Beautifully decorated French restaurant. We came in during lunch and it was empty, it got full later. Great service, and we had a really good meal for a good price, considering how expensive Paris is. It wasnt really clear that the deserts werent included or we didnt read thoroughly enough. Regardless really recommend

A hidden gem in the heart of Paris! L’Îlot Vache is a charming, cozy restaurant that perfectly captures the spirit of French hospitality. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and made to feel right at home. The ambiance is intimate and rustic, with just the right touch of elegance—ideal for a romantic dinner or a quiet evening with friends. The food was absolutely outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented and rich with authentic French flavors. The duck confit was tender and flavorful, and the tarte Tatin was hands-down one of the best I’ve ever had. Their wine selection is thoughtful and pairs perfectly with the menu. Service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive, and the staff were happy to offer recommendations in English when needed. If you’re looking for a true Parisian dining experience away from the tourist traps, L’Îlot Vache is not to be missed. I’ll definitely be returning on my next trip to Paris!

We had a wonderful dinner here, even without a reservation. We shared a salad that we paired with a rose, then also had a fabulous red along with our dinners, ending the night with an aperitif. Our server was great, spoke English (merci!), and was attentive. My husband is gluten free and lactose free and they were able to explain which items he could eat and which could be modified for him as well. So glad we ate here.

After reading the reviews I had high hopes. It's too bad, because the location and decor/music are nice so expectations are high when you sit down. Now, after a repeat visit this summer, we had a much better experience at Vache than a few years ago so I'm updating my review. The food and service are quite good and the ambience is lovely. Be aware that the place is a tourist destination so if you are looking to avoid that, be forwarded.

Loved it here, food was excellent I had the beef bourguignon and bone marrow for starter. Best I've ever tried! My kids loved their salmon pasta, the waiter was lovely and easy to talk too! Would definitely recommend going here ☺️
