Fodor's "Relaxed, simple, but chic would best describe this little restaurant above a wine shop in the heart of Ballsbridge; it also describes the people of the south of France who inspired the place." Full review
Frommer's "This darling little bistro and wine bar endears itself to everyone. Wine's the thing here, so relax with a bottle of Bordeaux or Côte du Rhône and nibbles from the menu." Full review
Lonely Planet "This bright and airy wine bar over an excellent wine shop of the same name serves fine authentic French dishes such as cassoulet." Full review
Time Out "A wine shop, deli and almost accidental restaurant (that side of the business just evolved on its own), the adorable French Paradox is a joy to behold." Full review
