Beautiful Asian fusion restaurant with the most incredible view. KONG was walking distance from our hotel and it was a perfect girls dinner on our first night in Paris. Overall experience and service was great from start to finish. After dinner we also had more cocktails at their downstairs bar. Drinks were on point. Definitely worth visiting when in Paris.

Beautiful setting I am here for the first time with my wife, the food is delicious we enjoyed the waygu very much and the Chicken Goyza. Highly recommended if ever in Paris I will come back.

Do you not come here if you had good Asian food before. Overall, the food was not worth the money, and I expected a lot more from this place. But obviously, in the end, I was disappointed. The food was nothing special, and the quality was not worth the price. They definitely prepare the wagyu wrong even I could've cooked it in my sleep. You know the place is a red flag when the waitress ask you how would you like your wagyu cooked? Also, there was no evidence of what type of grade the Wagyu was. The place was very pretty inside. There was a glass ceiling where you could see above you, but during night it's too dark to enjoy the glass ceiling. The service was very tentative and good. Sadly, the food wasn't good don't go here. This food was not worth the money.

Bonsoir! It's our first night in the city of lights and Kong was the perfect spot for this group of 10 girlfriends! We loved the all glass dining area which is great for taking photos. I have to say that I was very impressed by their cocktails ! My girlfriends and I tried a variety of cocktails and they were all delicious! Asian Porn Star Martini, Tokyo Spritz, Hara Kiri -- all of them were made just right! We started off with a few starters and the sea bass carpaccio was delicious! I loved the kaffir lime leaf flavors along with yuzu. We had high hopes for the main dish, but the cod was just too salty! The side of jasmine rice was appreciated after the saltiness of the fish. The veal was a disappointment as it was so difficult to cut that we asked for a steak knife but that didn't help either. This was a let down because the veal paired with the dipping sauce tasted great! Overall, this is a very nice venue to experience, the cocktails are amazing but the main dishes were hit or miss.

I just had drinks at the bar: you pay a lot of money for a small drink honestly. Staff was extremely nice great service! But I got a Hana, very good tasted like juice! They have a huge ice cube in it so you don't get that much of a drink for 18 euros but the atmosphere is very nice. Definitely worth it if you are willing to spend some extra money. Too flood where the bathroom was is very pretty.

First off, I just want to say how amazing dinner was, the staff and the ambiance. We took my little sister here for her 30th birthday and everything was great from start to finish. The drinks were tasty and colorful, the food was amazing and fresh! The service was top notch and they made everyone feel welcomed. Dinner was back in June of 2023

Spectacular wine

Now if you're coming to Kong for fine dining, you're in the wrong place. The restaurant is gorgeous, ambiance top tier. Spectacular picture opportunities at every angle. The food however is not amazing. Everything was ok but not great & at the end they charge 30% total in service fees and then ask for a tip on top, NO SIR!

Mashed potatoes, octopus, black cod with miso, lobster udon, prawn and crab ravioli
Angela T.

You pay for the ambiance and the view basically. Mashed potatoes were good, miso cod wasn't bad. Prawn and crab ravioli were bland, but ate it with the mashed potatoes to add saltiness. Staff was friendly and all spoke English. Be careful when you pay, they add a tip but ask for more. I didn't see that before I added the tip because my friends had the receipt but just be aware to not double tip. That was my fault!

Asian fusion food in Paris is the best way to describe this place. It gives you another high level view of Paris. Overall the food was good. But the hostess was very rude. We rode up the elevator and no one was on the floor. We stood for a few minutes and then we saw stairs so we decided to go up the stairs. Then halfway u the stairs, hostess comes down and nearly bites our head off for not waiting downstairs. We walk with her back to the elevator, then she ask us how many and do we have a rsvp. Then she takes us back up the stairs to seat us. Then when we left after our meal, that same hostess saw us get on the elevator. But the doors where just opening and closing. My friend ask the hostess is something wrong with the elevator and her response was yes it's not working right now. What I don't understand is why this hostess did not say this prior to us getting on the elevator. I really wanted to enjoy this place but the hostess just made it a miserable experience.

Inside
Kaila G.

Loved the drinks, ambiance, & service. We did not have a reservation and told them we are only getting drinks but they were kind enough to still seat us upstairs under the windows. We could not see the view & it was gloomy but it was still really nice being next to the windows and having a lot of light shine on us. The Tokyo Spritz was so delicious! My boyfriend did not like his whiskey choice but that's his fault lol

Shell from my ravioli
Gigi L.

Kong in Paris was a big disappointment. It started at the hostess desk where they couldn't find my reservation and when I showed them my email they blamed the cancelation on me-- they said I didn't confirm the reservation. The manager was rude and said they could seat us but they needed the table at 9pm. We are here from America celebrating a birthday and the uber had dropped us off so we stayed. The food was small with cute portions that lacked taste. Another pretentious restaurant with nasty food. Expensive nasty food. I found a shell in my ravioli. I don't know what my drink was cause it wasn't a cosmopolitan. One of the other ladies ordered the steak medium and it came to the table well done. She sent it back but it was still on our bill. She has madhed potatoes for dinner. And they had the gall to add 20% service charge. I can't even say the view was good since we got seated in the back. Don't waste your time fine another Paris restaurant-- this ain't it!

Foods good. Dessert by Pierre h is awesome. Trendy happening vibe. Great view. Good service.

So, it's my BD and I wanted to choose a restaurant with a view to celebrate with family. We have 6 people and to my surprise they tuck us in the back behind the stairs where all views are obstructed. I rather they didn't have the spot available than allowed the reservation. I couldn't leave knowing I'm charged so it was painful stayed there. So if you book make sure of the view. Food was just ok so if you want good food this is not the place. Service was ok besides everything was hella expensive. This place the scammed their guests with additional 20% and 10% tax. Paris has lots of nice restaurants just not here

So the little red door has a cute red door but the bouncer lets you in through another door (novelty observed haha). The man takes your jacket and umbrella (what a gentleman!) and sat us on the second floor. While the space between the couch and the seats were rather small, we were able to manage. I got the permaculture and resilience. The resilience is a club favorite and my favorite too! The way the sorghum, pineapple sage (syrup), pasquet cognac, and savanna rum all tied together was a blessing. I was going to get a third but I was tipsy by my second drink. My first drink was the permaculture and while I was considered it would be strong, it didn't seem strong to me. I love clarified dairy in alcohol so this was a win in my book. It consists of chestnut, butter, wakaze umeshu, avallen Calvados. The bar let's you stay for an hour but if you sit elsewhere, you can stay as long as you want. 5 stars and I hope to come back someday!

In this elegant hotel, after navigating valeted sports cars, chauffeur driven Maybachs, and the nicest classic Citroen performance sedan I've seen, you enter a lobby cocktail lounge that is the Canlis of cocktail lounges! From the valet and door staff to the hostess, maitre d and elegant servers the service could not have been much finer. Including coat check from the table and lounge settee with chairs. The bar appears to be full of whatever you would like but a signature cocktail menu that reads like a beautiful coffee table book is given to everyone. The drinks with names like Corn, Apple, etc are given to elaborate cocktails that are crafted with multiple layers of ingredients. Seems weird but everyone loved theirs and we all shared sips. I highly recommend that here if you are familiar with your companions. Call your banker first as $30 per drink is average! But the girl I raised bought it so whatever? Wish I photographed that menu!! Service is bright with ample and thoughtful olive and nuts assortments and water backs for all without asking. For a splurge I could not urge enough of you to try!! Seeing this hotel property alone is worth it right down to the gilded bathrooms excellently attended. We did not try the food as they were just about to convert to first dinner service and we had Xmas Eve dinner for the family booked at a different Michelin star restaurant later. I'll bet the food is the shizzle though!!!

As expected the service was flawless. Immediately upon being seated, a young lady brought us olives and mix nuts in a divided dish. The waiter soon followed to take our initial order. Pro tip- They open at 5 pm so get there 10-15 minutes before to stand in line. We got there at 4:45 and there were several people ahead of us. It's a small intimate bar that only seats about 20 something people and it filled up within minutes after we were seated. We saw multiple people getting turned away and when we left, there was a long line at the door. Cheers!!

I guess I wasn't done exploring when I ventured upstairs and sat right in between to groups of friends chatting. To my left what looked to be grad students talking about future career plans.

One of the ladies seemed very against it but mentioned, "if he really wants to I will atleast one, but i do not prefer it." The mood is intimate and chic. Overall a great time!

All of them were very "stylish" and expensive, with a lot of unnecessary ingredients. When a table opened up, we moved to it with our drinks. We decided to just have one cocktail, then bail to go to a friendlier, less complicated place. The waitress for our table had an attitude and was just plain rude. Never going back.

When we arrived the place was dead quiet -- like "did we accidentally come during a private apocalypse?" quiet. But as the evening went on, more people slowly wandered in and the atmosphere picked up. The drinks were fantastic: huge, strong, colorful, and dangerously fun. Exactly what you want from a tiki bar. The bartenders were incredibly sweet too. They answered all our questions, made recommendations based on what we actually like, and clearly knew their menu well. Always appreciate bartenders who don't just point randomly and say "this one." The decor and vibe were awesome -- dark, tropical, quirky, and full-on escapism. Felt like stepping into a hidden island bar in the middle of Paris. Only thing that threw us a little? The music. At several points it sounded less "tropical tiki escape" and more "waiting 45 minutes for Space Mountain at Disney World." Not bad exactly... just unexpectedly wholesome for drinks strong enough to make you text your high school friends at midnight. Overall though, we absolutely loved it and would 100% go back. Great drinks, great staff, fun atmosphere -- and honestly the weird Disney-adjacent soundtrack somehow became part of the charm.
