La Citadelle - Table reservation

We visited La Citadelle on our first night back in Paris. Due to jet lag we weren't starving, so we didn't get any appetizers or dessert.They provided an English menu, which was helpful, but which also had some items that were not on the French menu! I enjoyed the Tournedos Rossini, while my wife had the Chicken Breast Skewers. The food came out hot and was perfectly cooked, with wonderful flavors.The restaurant was at total capacity and only had two waiters, so there was often some time waiting for service. But in the end, had we not been so tired it would not have felt like a long wait.Note that diners tend to get up to smoke between courses, and while they leave the restaurant, they often linger to smoke in front and the smell wafts inside. The staff should do more to shoo people down the block a bit to avoid this.All in all, a wonderful meal and would go back.

The food was outstanding. We ordered the foie Gras platter for starters. The hot foie Gras came on toasted bread and just melted in the mouth. Was sublime. The other 2 on the plate were also amazing. Something I've never tasted before. For mains we got the lamb rack and beef with foie Gras. Both cooked perfectly and best meat I've ever had in a restaurant. Nice ambiance but very popular so advisable to reserve a table. Only negative is that there were only 2 waiters serving the floor however the owner mentioned they usually have more and we're just understaffed.We were so impressed with the restaurant that we called over the owner who was so lovely and gracious!An amazing experience. Can't wait for our next trip to paris.

My wife and I started with the goose liver ravioli, which was finger licking good. Right next to us someone ordered goose liver in toast which also looked generous and a good alternative.For our main dish I had the veal chop, which is the best I ever tasted and a very generous portion as well. My wife had the steak which was excellent as well. It was a shame we couldn't come again, because we saw the table next to us order the a magnificent shepherds pie!
