    As always a great outing. Veal rack was outstanding and we were able to pair with a wonderful wine from their cellar. Cannot wait for our next visit

    We recently attended Paris Go and it did not disappoint! It is amongst our favourite places to eat. We have recommended, as well as taken, friends & family and they all rave about this institution!!! From when you step inside door and are greeted warmly, food was amazing …love favourites are always included, but love to peruse specials. Drinks list ample and wines reasonably priced. Always a good night out !!!

    Paris Go is an institution in Melbourne; an absolute must-do if you want to experience French Bistro cuisine in this city. It has been around for decades and for good reason. Its steak is the best you'll ever try and I dont say that lightly. But it is the ambience, the staff, the whole emersion experience. We have been going there for well over 15 years and the dishes do not change in taste, quality or size. Constancy is their essence and we rely on that because we go once a year and that is a special thing for us. Not cheap, but this certainly isnt McDonalds we are talking about.

    Authentic French food and reasonably priced wine. The duck was outstanding. The profiteroles were unfortunately a bit too heavy.
