Beautiful restaurant inside & out. I had so much fun going in person after seeing this place all over tik tok. The food was yummy, but the favorite of the meal was 1000% the hot chocolate. You MUST try it.
Holy hot chocolate. It's rich, but completely worth it. And receiving a huge bowl of whipped cream made my inner child squeal with glee. You really can't miss this. We were afraid that the wait was going to be too long since people were filling the outdoor seating to look at the Eiffel Tower light show, but since it was chilly we wanted to sit inside. They promised that it would only be a few minutes, someone grabbed us and took us to our table. The interior was a little cramped like most cafes are, but it was totally manageable. Each had a Parisein Duo sandwhich, which was good. I recommend getting the side of small potatoes. They made the dish. Wine was very reasonably priced. Service was attentive. Seven took home some Desserts with you. All on, a great night!
The hype was real and this place lived up to the expectations!!! The wait wasn't really bad as many have suggested. Maybe because of the season being cold and we wanting to sit outside for the pictures we got to go in front of others. The coffee all of it was really good and the chocolate carette was amazing. Got to come twice to try different things and everything was great. Last thing word of caution the service best way I can describe is different, but after a few days in Paris we got to learn and accept the culture is different. Not bad, but you have to adjust.
Always worth the hype. The hot chocolate has been earth shattering to me ever since 2022 when I first had it. It's the kind that makes you crave a European hot chocolate when you're at home. Macarons are also thumbs up! I think one time back during my first trip, they saw me carry a Laduree bag and looked at it in disgust and said "ours are better". Two years later, I'm still not sure about that, but one thing that's taught me is that there *are* better macarons than Laduree and Pierre Herme. So give them a try! We waited about 20 minutes around 7pm but got seated earlier since we're New Yorkers and don't mind the cold. Service was speedy!
Many consider Carette to be the proverbial tourist trap -- highly instagrammable yet both overpriced and overrated. I disagree, based on our recent experience. Their hot chocolate is the real star; truly delicious, both rich and decadent. When paired with their exceptionally light, fluffy, and smooth whipped cream, the whole experience is elevated even further. While we didn't try their amazing looking pastries, their crepe, quiche, and "pain au chocolat" were all excellent. We spent 124 Euros for a light breakfast for 4. Highly recommended!
