Bazille - Paramus
Bazille
Description
Tucked inside Nordstrom, this quietly stylish spot offers tasty, generous portions—standout burgers, mushroom ravioli, French onion soup and pasta—at reasonable prices. The atmosphere is peaceful and tastefully decorated, ideal for shoppers seeking a calm meal. Consistency is a concern: menu changes, items running out, occasional cold or pre-packaged-feeling dishes, and uneven service or management absence have disappointed some guests. When staff are attentive the experience is excellent, but variability in quality and service can undercut otherwise very good food.

Met a friend here for lunch. Plenty of open seating although I did make a reservation. The staff is very friendly, our food order was taken quickly, and delivered in plenty of time. Well my friend ordered the fish and chips and I got the French dip sandwich which was delicious just the right size I don't like to take home leftovers. It came with some dipping gravy and several dips to use with my seasoned french fries everything was cooked properly and very tasty. I would definitely come back again,. My only gripe would be we sat in a booth That was covered in upholstery that was Heavily stained and gross looking it was right next to the cash register it should be steam cleaned or replaced or use vinyl that can be washed it really takes away from the experience
This is my third time eating at the restaurant and the food is always consistently delicious and a five star rating. If I could give a review for service it would be less then one star! I have asked on three different occasions for the general manager due to rude inattentive wait staff and I am always told that she is unavailable and not in the building . I can not understand how a restaurant can run without the presence of the general manager. There has also been a few occasions where I have come to the restaurant and it was closed for to go only. When I had questioned why I was not given a direct response other then they were following the directions of their GM. During one of my visits the head chef and another male (maybe manager?)had come over to the table to check to see how everything was going due to the general manager not being present.
This is a fantastic restaurant with delicious food. However, I've noticed that it can be challenging to find a host who is readily available to seat guests. There's often a line, and the host seems to be juggling multiple tasks. On a positive note, most dishes come with bread that is incredibly fresh, and the rest of the ingredients are wholesome and healthy, which is definitely a plus. The drinks are excellent and mixed to perfection. One drawback is their unusual hours; they've recently changed them and now close quite early.
