    I think this is our third return here. Actually hasn't changed Much. But each time my impressions change.

    Amazing service and elegant tea time. Room is beautiful. You will only be served one kind of tea but plenty of food.

    Having just landed and in need of a light bite we headed to Le Dali, not to mention the desire to sample the dessert creations of Cedric Grolet. In keeping with the high standards of the Meurice Le Dali is a wonderful respite for a most relaxing and enjoyable lite bite. Expensive, without question, however it reminds me of the classic old world French dining experience!

    My friend and I wanted to have a high tea experience in Paris, and after careful consideration we chose Le Dali. It was easy to make a weekday reservation through Trip Advisor, and we had our hotel confirm over the phone. We were slightly early for our 3:30 res and were invited to wait in the pretty sitting area off the lobby. The dining room is beautiful; it's decorated in Dali-inspired style (without bordering on creepy) and has fun touches like mis-matched plates and chairs at the tables. We each did the €48 high tea, which included the following: + selection of four sandwiches + selection of two scones + selection of three desserts + pot of any tea Everything was just delicious, and we could barely finish the desserts. Service was a little sparse, but hey, it's Paris, and the waiter was friendly when we did see him. I would absolutely recommend Le Dali for a high tea at a more reasonable price than many other places. Exactly what we wanted!

    I booked Sunday Brunch at Alain Ducasse's Le Dali, because I'd read it is a "must-do" in Paris. When booking, the concierge had relayed my food issues, so, after being seated in this magnificent dining room, the server acknowledged my special requirements then escorted me to the buffet where we were met by the chef. Together, they walked me through the various options, advising me on what I should avoid. Yeah, really. They then referred to the entree menu (it comes with brunch,) advising me in the same fashion, this time following with, "but the chef can prepare something special - off the menu - for you." Yeah, seriously. In my experience, most restaurants seem inconvenienced by my restrictions, so I have grown accustomed to making do with what's available and self-editing my meal as necessary. So, when a restaurant goes to such great lengths to ensure my dining experience is personalized and, therefore, exceptional, I must shout it from the mansard rooftops! Only twice before have restaurants been so elegantly accommodating, and both are Thomas Keller Michelin-starred favorites in Napa. His biography reveals that his culinary training was distinctly Parisian, apprenticing at Guy Savoy (I'm dining there on Tuesday,) and various Michelin-starred restaurants. Perhaps it's a French thing? Or, is it the Michelin stars? Whatever it is, I'm just now understanding the real difference between places like this and other upscale/high-end restaurants. The latter are all ego: gorgeous and exclusive representations of themselves. Whereas rare jewels like Le Dali, equally if not more gorgeous and exclusive, are humble in that its impeccable delivery is motivated, solely, by the experience of its patrons (whilst maintaining its celebrated identity.) The world at large could definitely use less ego and more humility ;) The food, by the way, was outstanding. The duck was absolutely exquisite. Bon appétit!

    Beautiful restaurant with exceptional service. Great way to share small plates, great wine list, friendly attentive staff and great ambience. You can choose from half portions to full size, great way to taste different plates they offer. The desert choices were wonderful-- I wanted to have everything!

    The most life- changing experience with French cuisine. This is what French culinary dreams are…read moremade of. Get the appetizer grilled foie gras with side of greens, you won't regret it. The richness of the flavor and the texture which is not reminiscent of the traditional roasted duck or foie gras, but rather a much more like a luxurious and indulgent version. We enjoyed our dinner on the outside of the restaurant after about a 20-30 minute wait. The bone marrow had the best flavor I've experienced for the dish. However, it is definitely overshadowed by the rich flavor of the foie gras. This experience was unforgettable, with our view of Parisian streets on a brisk, April night. We even came back on our last night, but didn't realize the hours on Google maps was for the deli. The restaurant closes earlier, before 9:00 PM. This meal got us thinking about Paris in a positive light, and we hope to be able to come back to eat the amazing dishes again!

    This place was a huge letdown. They had a cute little artisanal market on the front left of the…read morerestaurant. They had a number of goods to choose from and I ended up buying a few things for souvenirs. As for the actual restaurant, they had a number of delicious sounding items on their menu. Our server was very attentive to us and helped us decide on our dinner orders. Similar to the other restaurants though. After our food was delivered, it was far in between when we were checked on again. And after dessert it took even longer for our server to bring the bill. Overall, the food was a letdown. I do not exaggerate when I say that the frog legs just tasted like slightly flavored water. My friend's ravioli had a fairly decent flavored sauce but the pasta was a bit chewy. My friend's duck breast was pretty tough; I had noticed the table next to us also ordered it and they seemed to have trouble finishing/cutting theirs as well. As for my steak with foie gras, well the steak was once again tough and the foie gras was weirdly stringy. It was soft for the most part but there were parts that were tough and stringy. Maybe that's a section that's generally separated in the preparation process and it was missed? In any case it was disappointing. What wasn't disappointing was dessert though; perfectly sweet and balanced.
