"A great steak."
"The steak au poivre at this very popular bistro is bathed in a sauce of pan drippings and cream spiked with coarse Sarawak pepper and Cognac. The Spud Factor: The double-fried frites are crispy bliss."
"They serve the best steak au poivre in Paris."
"Their black pepper steak is excellent."
"If you prefer your butterfat fix mid-meal, order one of the best steaks au poivre in town, feisty with cracked Sarawak peppercorns and partnered with crispy frites."
"The steak au poivre at Bistrot Paul Bert is a thick filet that comes beautifully seared and covered in a creamy sauce au poivre made from heavy cream, butter, cognac, and peppercorns. Enough sauce for you to dip that pile of crispy frites in. And to lick off the plate at the end, should you feel so inclined."
"As for the steak, it was undoubtedly one of the best steak dishes I’ve ever had. The steak was a perfect medium rare and the outside was crusted in pepper."
"The plate arrived with a piece of meat covered in a rich, peppery sauce which really was truly delicious and worth all the hype."
"This beautiful cut of meat was encased in an amazingly great peppery crust that gave a nice kick at the backend of each bite."
"It’s easy to understand why it’s standard bistro fare. It’s delicious, elegant, and easy to prepare with just a few ingredients."
