Chez Hamadi sur Paris

Everything was perfect: service, atmosphere, cleanliness, and food quality.

Chez Hamadi is a very friendly restaurant where the food is delicious. You can treat yourself to couscous, tagines, or grilled meats at reasonable prices. I highly recommend it.

Excellent recommendation! Friendly atmosphere and very good service, a wide variety of dishes, and they're all very tasty and generous portions. I recommend it without hesitation.

Such a warm and welcoming experience! From outside, this place isn’t loud. Located near Blvd Saint Germain, and St Michel, it is neither ostentatious nor fashionable. But it’s low-key, quiet, and intimate. It only has a few tables so it never gets too loud or too crowded. And it has excellent service and food. The menu is simple. Only a selection of dishes. This restaurant is like one of those places that are historical. I think this one has stood here since WW2 in the same way. The owner is lovely, and very friendly. This place seemed personal, not commercial or over the top, unlike a lot of other restaurants in the vicinity. I strongly recommend it to everyone. As a vegetarian my options were limited but I never really have eaten a couscous so good. And portion sizes are quite big. Not like usual French portions that are usually small, so keep in mind while you’re ordering. I will definitely will be coming back. This is one of those hidden spots that only regulars know and love. And now I understand why.

There’s not a single time I’m in Paris that I don’t come here for couscous! Absolutely the best in town- truly authentic and absolutely delicious!

Everything was perfect. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to experience Tunisian folklore, delicious and generous dishes, and such warm service!

The food was really good and felt like home And the owner was very friendly

TLDR: This is a great restaurant near Notre Dame- the value for money is exceptional, you can usually get a table without booking, and the owner provides incredible service. My family has been coming to Chez Hamadi since 1973 - first my father as a student, then with my mother in 1990, and then my sister and I started joining as children. It has remained one of our favorite restaurants across countless trips to Paris over the years. For everything from summer suppers outside to our Christmas Day Dinner this winter. We always get the Coucous Royale and the Brick-a-L’oeuf (thon) and the folks who work here make us feel so welcome.we can’t recommend it highly enough!

The tuna brick was fabulous. Light, delicate & full of flavour. My couscous royal was also excellent and generous, except that the chicken had mysteriously "flown" - still in its absence there was a very tasty lamb brochette, so I wasn't going to complain. Decent wine was available and the service was very good indeed.

Excellent welcome, generous and flavorful cuisine!
