Le Jean-Baptiste - Boulogne-Billancourt

The waiter was rude on multiple occasions. We ordered a mixed charcuterie platter (cheese and charcuterie). The waiter started being agressive and told us that he wasn’t dumb, only because we asked him questions about the platter and how big it was. I don’t know how he took it the wrong way but anyway. Then the platter arrive with only 2 slices of cheese. We tried to explain that we ordered a mixed platter because some of us didn’t eat meat. Again, started yelling again saying « so do you wanna cancel » So I said yes… we finished our drinks, paid and went to another spot to eat

A friend and I stopped here for lunch on a weekday before visiting the Albert Kahn Museum and Gardens across the street. It was about Noon with plenty of seating available outside and inside. We opted to go inside to avoid the.hot sun that day and were quickly shown to a table. Our waitress was prompt and efficient at first, but her service soon slacked off after customers began to fill the pleasant space. I opted for chicken breast with penne and mushrooms. My friend selected steak and frites. Both orders arrived quickly. Though the penne and mushrooms proved to be adequate, the chicken was way too tough. I gave up on it after two bites. My friend deemed her meal just “OK.” The cappuccino I ordered at the end of the meal was watery, definitely not the drink I had hoped for. The most attractive aspect of this restaurant was its proximity to the museum and gardens. It is also just steps away from the Boulogne Pont de St-Cloud (Line 10) metro stop.

This was my second time staying in Boulogne-Billancourt and Jean-Baptiste is one of my favorite places to visit. The service is friendly and efficient. All of the servers make a special effort to speak English and understand my very bad French. The food is lovely and the atmosphere could not be better. Hope to return soon.
