What a gem in the middle of a residential area. The owner is as down to earth as they come, stopping often to check on us. Greeting at the door and ensuring quality. The dishes were cooked perfectly and portions were filling. Enjoy! PS.. the gherkins are a pleasant surprise!

I just came here for the first time today for brunch. Everything was delicious from the Bloody Mary to the Matcha Creme Brulee. The prices are also very reasonable. Since we are living in COVID times and right now only outdoor seating is permitted it is comforting that the outside enclosure has heaters. Plus, my waiter actually got me an additional heater (without me even asking) to make sure I was extra comfortable. Now everyone that is customer service at its finest. This is my first visit and most certainly not my last. But be forewarned that this place only accepts cash and Amex.

Brunch here is one of the best deals in Brooklyn! You seriously can't beat the amount and quality of the food for the price. The atmosphere is delightful and the food is SO GOOD! We had the French toast and the omelet with gruyere and ham, and both were perfect. The location is also wonderful in that it is so close to the subway stop. I'm already planning to return as soon as possible!

Very nice indoors and out. The street is quiet, so it’s good for sitting outside! I wasn’t wowed by the food (except the shrimp on the salad was unusually delicious); the cantaloupe gazpacho should’ve been smoother and the chicken was a bit dry (although the sauce/jus was yummy and helped). But the vibe is here is cozy and international (heard different languages spoken at the tables), which I like.

I enjoyed my brunch. The mimosa was strong and tasted good. I didn’t really care for the chorizo omelette special, it just kind of tasted bland. I was hoping for more chorizo to give it flavor because the eggs were not well seasoned, if seasoned. Now, I still wanna go back because the potatoes, greens, and escargot were good so I think the regular menu orders are good and I just came for a special at the wrong time. Other than that, had a great time and recommend.

Solid neighborhood eats. The ambiance and vibe is a 10. Waitstaff are really attentive and awesome. Food has been great. French onion soup is killer. The burger is excellent. I recently had the steak and loved it. Very kid / family friendly. Good drink menu. Prices are pretty standard for Brooklyn.

Ordered a 24 dollar medium rare lamb burger. Got a rare one. With some very sorry looking toppings. Tastes good enough. Just felt very rushed.

Food was good. Although the servers were nice, food took a long time to arrive. Almost 20 minutes for a burger. They offered no water to my dogs, and they only that Cash or Amex. They got an ATM inside but with all the technology and cards we have now why go to a place where I have to pay an extra 5 just to pay the bill.

Service was friendly, quick, and welcoming; ambiance was warm but a little darker for some tables than others. We came here to try their restaurant week menu and ordered the escargot, salmon risotto, cassoulet, crème brûlée and chocolate cup de creme. We also ordered the deviled eggs from their regular menu. Escargot: 2/5, like other diners have noted, the flavor is on the blander side, which could be improved to your own liking with some salt. My wife's plate came with lots of sauce whereas mine barely had any, so there's also inconsistency in terms of its preparation which is unfortunate. Deviled eggs: 1/5, overly mustardy which overpowered the entire dish, where there's no other flavor present; no sweetness, no savoriness, just the burn from the mustard. Salmon Risotto: 2/5, the salmon at first arrived pretty raw in the inside, which is evident in the picture. They fixed it for us kindly, which we appreciated it. However, the risotto were also quite tough and not soft like it normally would be. Flavor was also on the blander side and we had to adjust it to our liking by just constantly adding salt. Cassoulet: 3.75/5, not your typical cassoulet which is often served with breadcrumbs, and came with some beans, 3-4 pieces of sausage, and a duck leg with some pancetta bits. The duck leg was perfectly cooked, juicy, and tender. The rest of the dish felt small, like half the bowl it came in was empty when they could've added more beans just to make it more hearty. Definitely had better but it's not bad. The creme brûlée and chocolate cup were both 5/5 for us, for they were both perfectly crafted, big in portion, aesthetically pleasing, and just the right amount of sweetness and creaminess! I would definitely get them both and I promise you won't regret it; whoever made the desserts did everything right! Overall it was a decent experience for us; though we have high hopes Le Paddock can definitely improve and reach the 5 stars I know they have the potential of achieving! So give them a shot and definitely get the desserts! Thank you for reading and best of luck! (:

I wanted to like this place but unfortunately my meal was not very good & our waiter disappeared on us, mid-meal. Beef bourguignon should be flavorful and hearty, theirs was bland & thin. The calamari & salad were quite pleasant, but if you’re going to be a French restaurant, you have to get the staples right.
