The food here is so delicious and flavorful. Chez Gladines was recommended by a local and I am so glad I went. We shared a full plate appetizer and it was the best way to start our meal with wine. I want more and more of their rillettes.
Our entrees were the Cote de boeuf and Escalope de veau montagnarde. The beef was juicy, tender, and perfectly cooked, great when paired with crispy and delicious potatoes. I would agree with other reviews that the Escalope de veau can be salty but I think it should be expected because of the ingredients of this meal. I thought it was rich and fulfilling.
Overall it was a great experience and I think this place offers a good choice for meals similar in the South of France. -

Great place! Their duck was amazing and cooked well. Their chicken with basque sauce was to die for!

Great staff, clean, and great atmosphere.
The snails were some of the best I tasted in Paris. They are served sans the shells. The Duck confit was very good. But the Escalope Montagnarde (veal, ham and potato in a cream sauce) was way too salty! I had chapped lips after dinner. The veal was perfectly cooked but the cream sauce was like tasting Sea water.
I'll be back, sans that cream sauce tho... -

I'm so glad we discovered Chez Gladines Saint Germain! It's tough to choose between quatre or cinq stars, so, let's call it 4.5 and say oui to rounding up ... because I liked the Basque-style food while my wife loved it.
We started with a carafe of the house red wine from the daily specials board. It was red. It was wine ... and that's about all I remember about it. So, let's say it was a good match for the food ... which was near tasty decadence.
* Confit de Canard aux Cèpes - 16.50 €
This is the way I like my duck confit ... tender and juicy, but crispy and flavorful. At Chez Gladines, the Duck Confit is prepared with Cep & Chanterelle, Oyster Mushrooms, and Lacteous Mushrooms plus Fried Potatoes.
Escalope de Veau Montagnarde - 16.50 €
This was on the richest and heaviest dishes I've eaten in Paris. The Veal Escalope with Fried Potatoes, thick Cream, Mushrooms, and Cantal Cheese should be enjoyed with wine and a friend.
Cassolette Basque Escargots - 9.50 €
One of the house specialties is Chez Gladines' Basque Snail (12) Casserole cooked in a thick tomato Basquaise Sauce. This is officially one of my wife's favorite ways to have snails and she loved them more than more classic Parsley, Garlic, & Butter French preparations.
Chez Gladines on Boulevard Saint-Germain brings Parisians and tourists alike a French twist on Basque-style cuisine and we really enjoyed the food, service, vibe, and reasonable prices ... but mostly the food. -

This was our first night in Paris dinner and it did not disappoint. We had the Escargot, the veal, and the house wine. The staff could not have been better.
