Amazing friendly atmosphere!! We are pampered and welcomed as if we were part of the family. The meat is tender and exceptional like you will never see anywhere else, it was stratospherically good but above all exotic, we felt like we were in the USA. Special shoutout to Anissa, this queen who gave you (in addition to her extraordinary and remarkable kindness) many shooters. I recommend it and I will surely come back!!

We love barbecued meats and this place did not disappoint. It was our first day in Paris, it was lunchtime, and we were hungry. We had done our research and this place came highly rated, which, after trying their food, does not surprise me. We had spare ribs, brisket, and pork bellies. The meat was so tender, you don't need a knife! The two guys that seated us, took our orders, and served us were very nice and were able to speak with us in English. Come to think of it, all our restaurant experiences in Paris have been positive during our trip, with restaurant staff treating us very well. I hope to return to Paris one day, and I know I will go back to this place for more barbecued meats!

Pleasant discovery on Saturday night, the taste and quality were spot on! It was a pleasure, the meat was tender and flavorful, the portion generous! Even the sundae was a delight, not to be overlooked with these scorching temperatures. The staff was very attentive. You got it, let yourself be tempted with your eyes closed!

Do you think you know about meat? Do you think your palate will never be surprised again? Are you wondering why this restaurant crushes 99% of the meat restaurants in Paris? I could write a novel, so let's limit it to 5 arguments: - At 20 meters from the restaurant, the smell I sensed reminded me that Man first learned to master fire to grill his meat and secondly to survive winters. - When I was lost in front of this menu (more or less stocked depending on when you go due to the smoking time of the meat), Fabian explained it to me and I realized then that I had the One Piece in my hands. - Besides being captivated by the smell of the kitchen, Anissa arrived smiling from ear to ear, arms full of GENEROUS platters! - I literally cried at my first bite, I cried because I understood that an infinity of flavors were still to be discovered and that Fabian was a living encyclopedia. - At the end of the meal, Antoine came to comfort me with a shot of Honey Rum and Cinnamon and I cried again on his shoulder; never before had rum been so sublimated and respected. For all this, yes, it is imperative to stop at Melt Batignolles as soon as you learn of its existence. Go there with your eyes closed; tears will still flow.

How can anyone talk bad about this place. The best meat I have ever ate in my life (I am a fat man 20 stones) and the smashed potato’s maybe the best potato’s I’ve ever had too. Fantastic friendly service would highly recommend brisket and maple bacon WOW. 25/10 score. Amazing. Anyone saying this place is not amazing does not know what they are talking about

What a delight. I have never had the chance to taste classic American barbecue, but after seeing many positive reviews, I went there and was not disappointed. The quality and taste of the meat are exceptional. A huge favorite for me is the brisket and the cornbread. Especially the cornbread. But after having been there a few times now, I can tell you that everything is very good, both sides and meats.
