    This place is soooo good you will want to go back again and again and again! This plate is my favorite, chicken and cabbage marinade is the game changer. Portion is very filling. I also have tried the burgers and the bun is so soft and meat delicious. The staff is very welcoming. Congratulations on running a top restaurant!

    We had a delicious sweet chicken meal, the other dishes look good too! We had the BBC burger that was amazing and the rasta rocket burger. I also recommend the bananes plantains / allocos as a side or even as a dessert.

    5 stars isn’t enough for this place! My fiancée and I came here with a group of 8 and the owner made sure to pay special attention to her celiac allergy, quickly whipping up a tasty dish that was surely safe. Even outside of this rare accommodation in Paris, the hospitality and quality of cuisine was bar none the best we experienced in Paris. If you’re stopping by, be sure to try the spicy rum cocktail/shot! 😎👍🏼

    The food is good, however the portion of plantain was clearly not enough in the dish itself. We had to order a side of plantain to have enough. The price range seems to be the average one in Paris

    Food was wonderful!! There are a variety of Caribbean dishes that are well done. The service was also great. We had a lovely conversation with ‘Papi’ for quite some time. Definitely recommend this place to all who enjoy great Caribbean food.

    my plan is to go there as often as possible from now on since the food is so amazing. the staff is the best, super kind and attentive, their playlist is insanely good, the vibes are all there… try the bbc juice it’s so good. I had the cod bowl, it was delicious, the portions are quite big and i wish i could’ve tried more off the menu but i’ll definitely be back 👑 this is a must!

    This place was awesome. The staff were super cool and the food was great. The female server was playing some dope music which created such a vibe. Will definitely come back next time I’m in Paris and hopefully I’ll see a second location in NYC or Toronto as it definitely fits the vibe.

    I think I found my new favorite place in Paris. BBC is a nice small restaurant with so much vibrancy and good vibes it will knock you off your feet! Literally dancing while eating is the vibe they got going for them. The staff is so so nice! Foodwise, I must say, it’s the first time I eat something with the right spice level. It’s so full of flavor that you are not going to believe it. Definitely will be coming back to try out the many other dishes!

    Truly an amazing lunch spot. Each bowl was an explosion of flavour and hit the right spot. I took the sweet chicken which was delicious and had the right amount of sweetness. If I lived in the same neighbourhood, I would have come regularly! The staff is also very friendly and efficient.

    BBC is a really nice spot to grab some quick yet incredibly tasty lunches at good prices. I stopped by for lunch and loved it enough to leave a review.

  • 5/5 Claudia C. 1 year ago on Google • 7 reviews
    Great food! We ordered the sweet chicken, fried plantains, BBC burger and the chicken wings. Every thing hit the spot! The staff were amazing and welcoming! The owner was warm too! We will definitely come back!

    One of our favourite meals in Paris! We had the Jerk Chicken, Sweet Chicken and accras legumes to start. Fabulous! We would have returned if that hadn’t been our final night in the city. Bright restaurant and quick service.

    If only I lived in Paris I would eat here as often as possible! Excellent flavours, tender meat seasoned perfectly, crispy edge plantains soft inside, generous portions, super friendly staff, great vibes… what more could you want? The perfect lunch spot. It’s in the middle of a lot of other restaurants, but just keep walking past the others and come here!

    As a Haitian woman I was PLEASANTLY surprised by the flavor of the food and the amazing customer service. The staff were very friendly and gave us recommendations for the area. We had the veggie okra and the seasoning was amazing! We also had the curry chicken and jerk chicken sandwich it was amazing. I’ll be in Paris for 3 more weeks and we will be back!

    Found BBC by chance late one afternoon when we were totally starved. The host and his staff prepared the best meal we'd had in ages - and took special care to make our little daughter feel special. Delicious food, super friendly folks: would recommend to anyone!

    I have eaten twice with family that visited from the UK, the first time was so good we had to go back. Manu and the staff are super friendly and their food is delicious. I suspect it would be impossible not to have a brilliant evening here.

  • 5/5 Ross A. 1 year ago on Google
    Insanely good food! My girlfriend loved the crispy Le Jerk burger with a side of coleslaw. The sweet perfectly balanced the spicy. I got the Colombo Poulet 🌶️ plat and could not believe how good it was. 🍺 Awesome imported beer just made the whole thing perfect. Super friendly owner/staff and great relaxed vibe. Please, please expand to the Netherlands. You guys would make bank if you opened in Utrecht!

  • 5/5 Ornella A. 1 year ago on Google
    Soooo juicy and tasty !!! I took the Ropa burger: the best burger of my life so far 🤩. The bun is as fluffy as a cloud 🥹. And the pulled meat was EXCELLENT: very well cooked and perfectly seasoned 😋. The plantain in it is just wow. The home juice was refreshing and surprisingly delicious. I really like the concept , thanks for sharing with us your culture in a so pleasant way.

    Tasty food and excellent service. We ordered the spicy Jerk dishes (bowl and burger) but didn’t find them spicy enough. We asked for additional hot sauce and they brought out an incredible one that was the highlight of our experience! The waitress kindly packed some up for us to go too. We would buy bottles of that sauce if we could!

    Amazing food. Really good atmosphere. Friendly staff. Good price. Worth a visit.

  • 5/5 Daniela Maya S. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was amazing, as a Colombian I felt very happy to find a place with banane plantain and ropa vieja. But the service was even better, the guys are just amazing and make you feel like home. Loved this place and will definitely become a go to.

  • 5/5 Ryan M. 1 year ago on Google
    one of the best lunch spots i’ve ever been to. truly a special, place. ingredients were extremely fresh, the service was excellent, and i absolutely loved my meal. 6/5 stars.

  • 5/5 Lucian Alexandru G. 1 year ago on Google
    Very friendly hosts, excellent food! A cosy little place, does not seat many, but you still find some place. Or wait a bit, it's totally worth it! Sweet chicken, Jerk chicken, Colombo & BBC burgers... and the chicken wings, the shrimp accras... and the sauces... terrible. 😀 You can not stop eating! And the authentic Carribean beers and rhum add to the experience, delightfully. Went there twice.

    The Super Bowl (veggie bowl) and Cod Bowl were amazing!! Wish we had one of these spots back home. Their bowls are great for gluten free folks too. The food is fresh, homemade, and delicious. They truly go above and beyond with their service too!! While ordering, I mentioned interest in their sweet chicken but ended up ordering their veggie bowl instead, and they even came by with a side of the chicken for me to try anyway (it was SO tasty). This is a must try while in Paris!

  • 5/5 Maaike F. 1 year ago on Google
    What a wonderful place and lovely people. So glad that they also serve some vegetarian options. Vegan accras with the super bowl & jerk come highly recommended. Also approved by fellow caribbean. We're definitely coming back for the good food and good vibes ✨
