La Rotisserie d’Argent is a classic French bistro serving what might be the best roast chicken in Paris. Located next to the Seine, with outdoor tables overlooking the river, this is a centrally located and crowd-pleasing spot for classics like steak frites, duck confit, steak tartare, and kidneys in mustard sauce (vegetarians should steer clear). There’s a good wine list, as you’d expect from the team behind La Tour d’Argent, and they’re open every day.

That sounds awful, Patricia! Thanks for sharing your experience.
Just had lunch at the Rotisserie today ( Sept 15 2023) and I can say it is definitely NOT the best roast chicken in Paris. I’ve had many in other restaurants/bistros over the last 20 years we’ve been living here and this is not one of them. Dry, overcooked, and expensive. The service was inattentive, our wine arrived eventually after we’d finished eating. The confit de canard was probably the worst I’ve had anywhere (seemed like it had been reheated for too long or many times). What a disappointment. When we called the manager to explain our disappointment, he was dismissive and did not try to make any kind of gesture or apology to remedy our bad experience. NEVER going back. Plus, although not the restaurant’s fault, our table was overrun by wasps, which in the end meant I could not finish my chicken (ordinary though it was). On the positive side, the oeufs mayonnaise were very good and the purée also good.
Hi Virginia! No, it’s not limited to Sundays.
Looks amazing! Do they only serve roast chicken on Sundays?
