Probably one of the most stunning restaurants in the world, and in a train station of all places. As many places, this restaurant was originally designed for the 1900 Exposition Universelle. The dining rooms were themed to represent cities and regions in France. And they are exquisite from floor to ceiling. I was told to make sure I made a reservation about a month in advance. I did not, I wasn't sure of my timing through the station. But there's a way to still enjoy the beauty and eat. Le Train Bleu also offers a bar area. Here there are several small lounges with luxury interiors. It is possible to sit in one of these areas, but you may have to wait. My timing was perfect. A 5 minute wait. The cozy spot had gorgeous dark paneling and felt so warm on a December day. The service is impeccable no matter where you sit. The bar menu is quite toned down from the restaurant area. Lighter bites for travelers in between trains. I am a croque Monsieur addicted and wanted one last one before leaving Paris. The presentation was very different from the traditional ones at most bistros. This one was rolled tight and sliced into sections. Still delicious ham and Emmental goodness. A fresh salad was on the side. A bowl of mixed olives arrived shortly after being seated to nibble on while waiting on the meal. Next visit, I enjoy the main dining room!!! read more

Our group was all about trying this restaurant after what they had heard about it through the Frenchies YouTube channel. We made reservations which was much needed as it was packed on a Tuesday night. The decor was vivid and attractive in that old French style. I ordered the duck frois gras as a starter and the leg of lamb as my main course. The server brought us a small custard of what I believe may have been pumpkin. It was okay. The bread was okay. The frois gras was different than what I have had before (more of a solid pâté with little apricot cubes and an en croute). It was fine. The lamb shank was carved in front of us. It was tender and good. For dessert, I ordered the Crepes Suzette. They were also prepared table side, and it was a nice production. Fire and fun watching. The food here was okay, but you go for the decor, the scene, the "show." It seems to be a must do (at least once). read more

Went for the view, stayed for the food. One of the few places where the food was perfect. Highly recommending this place for dinner, or lunch and for beautiful pictures. The restaurant is located inside the train station so it is a fun experience to overdress and walk through the station to reach your location! read more

When you step inside the restaurant it's like going back in time during the Belle Epoque splendor. The setting is simply breathtaking. Lavishly ornate, Le Train Bleu offers one of the most beautiful dining rooms in Paris, if not the world. It's easy to forget you're in a functioning train station the atmosphere is serene, romantic, and dripping in Old World charm. And at that very moment you start feeling the heat inside ( it was unusually hot for that evening inside the restaurant) and a few sips of cold big bubble sparkling water did settle us down and clam our nerves a bit The menu pays homage to classic French cuisine, with a modern finesse. Anthony and Ali were our hosts serving our table and did a fantastic job. Professional, courteous, and formal; exactly what you'd expect from a historic institution. They were multilingual and made a genuine effort to enhance the dining experience. For our evening, we ordered the Tender leek cake that comes with Tapioca and was absolutely amazing and we definitely took our time with every bite. Along with that we ordered the Skate fish fillet that comes with a side of mashed potatoes, again done to perfection. Lastly, we had the crispy crabmeat served on avocado bed and shellfish mayo that really made our dinner exquisite. Enjoyed every morsel to the full. That said, some dishes can feel slightly overpriced for what they are as you're partly paying for the ambiance. But when the food hits, it really makes it all worth it. Le Train Bleu is an experience in itself. Ideal for special occasions or travelers ( located right in the heart of Gare de Leon station helps a ton) seeking a cinematic slice of Parisian elegance.It's not a casual meal, nor is it meant to be but if you're willing to indulge, it's absolutely worth the journey. read more

Absolutely stunning decor!! We felt like we were in a lavish French museum. Established in 1901 for the Exposition Universelle, Le Train Bleu is located within the Gare de Lyon railway station . Opulent Belle Époque interior, featuring ornate gilded moldings, crystal chandeliers, and 41 grand murals painted by prominent artists of the early 20th century. These artworks depict various regions of France. The restaurant' earned it the status of a Monument Historique since 1972. We went there for a nice breakfast before starting our day in Paris. I had the Omelette with smoked salmon. OMG, the best omelette I've ever tasted!! Luxurious simplicity--mellow, buttery, tender, and softly savory with a hint of rich Gruyère to coat the palate. My gf had the Baguette and toasted cereal bread, Isigny butter, jam or honey. A classic French breakfast. If I could get baguette and butter this good at home, it would be my classic breakfast too!! Happy Eating!! read more

What a beautiful venue located inside a modern train station but with amazing gilded and ornate details from the staircase to the massive painted scenes on the ceiling and walls. We did a little research before selecting this place knew they were famous for their crepe Suzette. But before dessert we splurged and ordered the caviar and we opted to share the yummy sea bass in a lovely brown sauce with gnocchi, olives, asparagus and red peppers (not spicy). I highly recommend making this a stop on your visit to Paris for lunch or dinner, before or after your train ride. read more

This absolutely spectacular restaurant is located in the Gare de Lyon train station. We arrived a little after 4:00 p.m. We told the waiter that we just wanted a drink and appetizers, and he kindly seated us in the restaurant area instead of the lounge. All I can say is . . . WOW!! It is breathtaking and beautiful, just pure opulence. The charcuterie and bread was delicious. However, I LOVED the olives and garlic! The whole experience was just indescribable! read more

Located at Gare de Lyon, Le Train Bleu is extravagantly decorated in the Belle Époch style. Gilded arches, painted ceilings, & ornate chandeliers transport you to a golden time in France. While the dishes are as sophisticated as the interiors, I can't say the taste held a candle to less fancy establishments we tried on this Paris trip. Each plate was painstakingly made beautiful & the flavor combinations were creative enough to be memorable, but this is a place you visit mainly for the experience & the ambiance. One companion enjoyed her Pâté en Croûte (32 €), another person was less enthused about her cod loin with basmati rice (43 €.) I ordered the roast chicken in brown sauce with eggplant (40 €.) Tough chicken & undercooked eggplant so I cannot recommend my dish. The cheese course (16 € for five varieties) was excellent. The comte, savarin, brie, & camembert were so deeply flavored. I didn't try the goat cheese but I hear it was equally as tasty. Desserts were 19 € each. The pistachio soufflé with cherry sorbet was light & airy, with the pistachio flavor also leaning a little light for our preference. We ordered a Menton lemon cake, of sorts, as the citrus is local to a French Riviera town. Satisfyingly tart & so fresh, we really enjoyed this one. Friendly, energetic servers. The plating is Michelin quality. And the decor is a feast for the eyes. Sure, make a reservation at Le Train Bleu; just balance it out with meals at more casual cafes for a well-rounded taste of what Paris has to offer. read more

Le Train Bleu - French Near Me - Paris, 75

Our fantastic server Eli was a hardworking table side chef who made everything while smiling the entire time. As the restaurant got busy, Eli adapted perfectly and we felt very taken care of and attended to. We recommend the Cheese selection for the starter and the series of sorbets as a pallet cleanser. Le Train Bleu lives up to every single part of the hype you see from any given social media platform. The staff is great and can handle this high volume restaurant with ease. The amount of staff members we encountered were kind and sharp with their presentation. My recommendations are that when dining here, you share everything. The scallop dish is my favorite while accompanied with champagne and the beef tar tar is perfection with a solid bottle of Bordeaux. Many menu items are arranges table side and impeccable in their ingredient explanation as you see what the items are and agree to each before they are mixed in. Make your reservations early for this place and if you are arriving to Gare Lyon beforehand make sure you give a 45 minute timeframe as they do have a bar you can position yourself at while they prepare your table and a great valet service to check your hand baggage. The interiors are true rococo and dripping with that dreamy luxury French vibe that you must see in person to experience. Merci Beaucoup, Le Train Bleu! You did not disappoint at all! We shall be back! read more

So Le Train Bleu had been on my list of opulent places to try in Paris and as much as it is TRULY a tourist trap I felt that after 20 years of traveling to Paris it would be okay for me to actually do something touristy. That being said, the opulence is present but the entire experience was ghetto AF. The service is horrible. Period. It is not only rushed and manufactured but it really fails to deliver the "elegance" it promises. There were highlights of the experience - for instance the leak presse was delicious and of course the grandeur. Please keep in mind that not all tables will enjoy the views. When booking please make sure to ask for tables that will allow you to enjoy this since it is literally the only saving grace of going there for dinner. Avoid, service stations, walkways, etc. Truthfully I think the AMEX Concierge who set this up for us failed. They really should have booked a better table or had an agreement with the restaurant for securing better tables for their concierge guests. My final take on this is to try it but set your expectations based on reviews and not the opulence. The overall experience is mismatched. read more

Le Train Bleu was such an amazing experience. I highly recommend booking this restaurant for lunch or dinner if you are new in town. Located at the train station, you are instantly transported into elegant fine dining. We enjoyed the option to be casual at this restaurant considering the amazing service they provided my family of 6 (four adults and two toddlers). The restaurant itself is gorgeous. High ceilings, ornate with detailed paintings and mouldings. The staff moving swiftly through the busy restaurant but with such grace. And the food, THE FOOD, was one of our favorite meals on vacation. I could easily come back. The deviled eggs with caviar was a great appetizer. I shared my sole with my cousin and found the fish to be beautifully cooked. The server de-bones the fish and plates it right in front of you. For dessert, we had a souffle and this gorgeous panna cotta. The kids even enjoyed this restaurant. We sat near a window where they entertained by the trains coming and going at the depot. They loved the ice cream however, they ate the fries and didn't touch their cooked "beef tartar". We know that chicken was on the menu, however, they couldn't give us a kid's portion to serve the kids. read more

My dinner here was probably my favorite dinner in all of my Paris trip. They were easily able to accommodate my allergy and I got the lamb sans the sauce. I started with the asparagus, which was SO delicious. And also got a glass of white wine. For dessert, I got a bowl of berries. Overall, it was an absolute delight and highlight of the trip. The atmosphere is gorgeous and photo-worthy. The waitstaff is so willing to take your photo and treat you so well. I will be coming back! read more

Le Train Bleu - Veel - French Near Me - Paris, 75

Since watching the movie Nikita a long time ago, I had always been intrigued by this restaurant's gorgeous décor. Finally, my dream came true, and I was so excited to try it! Needless to say, the restaurant's décor was absolutely amazing--not just in the main dining area, but also in the bar area. The restaurant is located inside Gare de Lyon station. We ordered the Provencal Style Pâté and Sea Bass Carpaccio for starters, Roasted Veal Rump and Roast Leg of Lamb with Potato Gratin Dauphinois for the main course, and for dessert, Crepe Suzette flambéed with Grand Marnier and a Lemon Soufflé with wild thyme ice cream. The pâté was just amazing, featuring sweet and sour vegetables as ingredients, making it a delicious start to the meal. The Sea Bass Carpaccio with pomegranate sauce was also excellent, another great dish to begin with. The roasted veal rump was cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious. A standout dish was the roasted leg of lamb, which was served tableside. The server carved the lamb slices and added sauce with roasted garlic--simply an amazing dish. The potato gratin was excellent as well. Another notable dish was the Crepe Suzette, which was also served tableside. The server flambéed it with Grand Marnier, and we thoroughly enjoyed the flame work. It tasted absolutely delicious. The lemon soufflé was good as well, with a nice texture, though the lemon flavor was a bit more tangy than I expected--but still enjoyable. Overall, we absolutely enjoyed the dinner experience at Le Train Bleu. Given its popularity among tourists, making a reservation is a must. I hope to return to this restaurant again in the future! read more

STUNNING. If you love the Opera House then you will live this for the architecture alone. To be honest, there wasn't a lot on the menu. I'm not the most adventurous eater - I have a stomach condition so I have to be careful, especially when on vacation in a foreign country. Too many unknowns not to mention I don't want my trip ruined. Our meal was rushed, but I think that's how they do it. All the staff were scurriyng along, and moving quickly around the space. It was kid of interesting to see. It reminded me f that scene from Hello Dolly where the staff are all dancing around with plates and things. It felt very old world. Honestly the food wasn't the best we had in France. It wasn't bad but it wasn't outstanding. Again, we had the tamest item on the menu, so something else may be better honestly. But we were there for the experience and the ambiance and the architecture. In all honestly, I would go again just to be in that space. It was THAT BEAUTIFUL. Note, I do not remember seeing a children's menu. I did see a few children, but I'm not sure what the options are for them. And it is the kind of place I would probably not take my own (future) kids until they are older. NOTE: social media will tell you this is formal spot for dinner. Or will tell you to dress up. Even were a gown. This is not the vibe. It is in a train station. It was meant for travelers. It is casual. You will see some dressed up but it's not required and it is not the norm. I was wearing jeans and a noise and was perfectly fine-somewhere between the most dressed down and Morse dressed up. I wouldn't wear leggings but you do not need to wear a cocktail dress either. read more

So happy to have found this fabulous restaurant here at this train station. With no reservations and a train to catch we were still able to have a wonderful lunch in the bar area. The service was impeccable even when all tables were full. The choices were delicious as was the bread and olives as well as very tasty crunchy garlic cloves. While the room was okay it was not the grand hall where the main restaurant is. We had a delicious Caesar salad, club sandwich and rum cake for dessert. The rose was also fantastic. It was on my list to eat here and very happy to have had the opportunity. read more

Classic French cuisine in a majestic setting inside Gare de Lyon station. The restaurant received a fabulous renovation at the time of the Olympics last year and so really is a beautiful space. This is a place for foodies. The chefs know what they're doing and I imagine that it's tough to be disappointed the quality and taste of the food here. There were lots of French people here which suggests to me that it's not just a place where tourists stop in. Service is impeccable. Some dishes prepared tableside. read more

If you're planning on taking the TGV (or any other train) from Paris' Gare de Lyon, plan also a little extra time so you can take a step back to the Gilded Age of travel at Le Train Bleu. Over-the-top baroque styling, elegant seating areas, a slightly haughty maitre d' - what more can you want? It might be a little bit of a tourist trap - and it may be a tad over-priced - but it is redeemed by pretty good food, attentive service, and the ambiance. We had a nice light brunch before our train: my wife had the avocado toast which came with a perfect soft-boiled egg which she said was very good; and I had the chicken Caesar salad which was delicious. Go ahead and treat yourself - it's fun too! read more

Elegance, First Class Service, and Amazing Food. It does not get better than this! Unassumingly tucked away in the train station at Gare de Lyon is Le Train Bleu. We felt so fortunate to accidentally find it on our last night in Paris and trust me, it is not to be missed! I do not give out 5 stars often, but I'd give this one 6 if I could! First of all the service is completely first class. We waited a bit for our table (they accommodated us as walk ins, and even then the wait was approximately 30 minutes) and as we walked with our drinks from the salon to the main dining room, a waiter stopped my wife to insist he carry her drink to the table for her. Upon being seated you are waited on hand and foot. They offer you a delicious gazpacho and bread. The menu is diverse and delicious. We tried different dishes and they were both tremendously delicious. The desserts, the drinks, all amazing. The restaurant itself is breathtakingly beautiful as well. Colorful and aesthetically pleasing frescos adorn the walls and ceilings. We had spent time at both the louvre and the palace of Versailles on this trip, this restaurant was in line with they artistic style and beauty. Do not miss this wonderful restaurant, accessible by car, foot, or train depending on where in Paris you're staying. It is top notch and fine dining at its finest! read more

Grand entrance from the floor of the Gare de Leon started out our lunch. After checking in with the hostess, she sat us at the typical French table in the shape of a seat on a rail car. Wines by the glass and bottle available. Nice food course selection. Would have liked to have seen some moules. My wife chose the hose signature dish of Roasted Leg of Lamb. Nicely prepared and sliced at the table. I went with the Boeuf de Tare Tare also prepared table side. Overall a nice meal in a beautiful historic venue. Recommendations: must make reservations weeks in advance and decline the waiters offering to add the gratuity. read more

Le Train Bleu - View from our table. - French Near Me - Paris, 75

For a two Michelin Star restaurant I would say that the dining experience lives up to the standard. Le Train Bleu brings the ambiance of the gilded renaissance to the meal, as if you transported back and time and were having a royal dinner in the galérie d'Apollon at the Louvre. I brought my family and friend here for a reunion and the experience was divine. We started off with the hors-d'oeuvre and then gratin de pommes de terre, which was a creamy potato dish. The amuse-bouche was served in between courses as one of the servers sliced us lamb off of the bone, which raised the curiosity of the people sitting at the next table and they wanted to know exactly what we ordered. The lamb paired well with the taste of the cabernet sauvignon red wine. I would say that the highlight of the meal was the pavlova dessert which was elegantly garnished and had the perfect balance of sweetness to axillary flavors. Overall, this place lived up to the expectation and is a great place to celebrate a special occasion in a belle époque atmosphere. read more

This place is a MUST! A real gem within the Gare de Lyon train station,... it feels like going back in time. Perhaps it may not be the best meal you may have in Paris, but the whole experience is worth it. I strongly suggest that you get a reservation. The opulent dining room is absolutely stunningly beautiful. You will not be able to stop staring at the amazing ceilings' art. The Staff is professional, friendly, helpful, proficient, and eager to please. They seemed somewhat hectic and busy, but able to manage a full room. The food is a just bit above average and may not justify the above average price. For the high prices, they did not deliver on taste. The food presentation is excellent, they even offer flambé dishes. I highly recommend the Pistachio souffle w/raspberry ice cream dessert and the crepes Suzette was delicious and made at the table (see video). Overall, you will get a really all together excellent experience, with great service and average pricy food. read more

Fine but not great nor even really good It's pretty and lots of servers milling about doting on you but definitely not a special meal.

The beef dish was basically run of the mill pot roast The John Dory was excellent but overpriced The cafe gourmand was literally three desserts for 14 bucks (I've never had one with less than five) Yeah it's a tourist trap and we fell for it.

It's a fancy old world restaurant inside a train station. From the Ballard side, take line 1 towards Chateau de Vincennes, exit Gare de Lyon. The entrance to the restaurant is inside the station. Check your coat if you want a little 1940s charm, and follow your waiter to your table. Just be cautious, because your attention span will be captivated by the decor on the walls and ceiling, and you may not notice all the social media influencers who are stopping right in front of you to get their money shot until it's too late. We recommend the 6€ cheese plate, which consisted of you selecting five choices from their fromage platter. The 120€ shared sea bass entree was a fantastic choice, and thankfully for us, was our first time enjoying the dish, which was served wellington style. Just mind the bones. There's not a lot of them, but it only takes one to drag you down to Davy Jones. We recommend a reservation, and plan on being there a few hours. We were seated about an hour before our sea bass was delivered. If a show is what you're looking for, the crepes suzette will have you feeling the flames from the Grand Marnier.

Come here for the decor and atmosphere, not the food! A legendary train station restaurant turned out to have quality of train station level. With over 8000 reviews, 4 and half stars, I made the reservation for dinner at this place on the first night of our arrival in Paris. So glad it was the first and not the last night. Otherwise we will leave Paris with bad taste in our mouth. You've seen it on reel where you enter the restaurant. The decor was really impressive but it's weird when you entered the restaurant. There's no music and the vibe was just off. Service was decent and attentive. I like how French waiter would remind us of the portion. Food: honestly it was pretty terrible overall.

C'est un endroit étonnamment calme, au 1er étage, à 30 m du quai du train. Mais très grand, plus de 250 convives - avec un décor opulent du 19e siècle, des lustres, des fresques. À une époque, il pouvait probablement accueillir l'ensemble des sections de première classe de plusieurs trains. Ce n'est plus vrai aujourd'hui. Attendez-vous à voir des gars sans chaussettes portant des sandales, des t-shirts ou des shorts en jean coupés. Avec des bagages. La cuisine n'est pas trop mauvaise, facilement le meilleur restaurant parisien parmi les six principales gares. Probablement le meilleur restaurant de n'importe quelle station de RER ou de métro également. Le service semble conçu pour la cuisine française classique, pour impressionner les simples voyageurs lors de leur première visite à Paris. Malheureusement, il n'y avait pas assez de personnel, portant leurs petits badges nominatifs, pour les postes de découpe mobiles ou pour préparer tartare de boeuf ou les crêpes Suzette à table. Je m'arrêterai au bar ou au café, en attendant un train, mais je ne compte pas retourner au restaurant. / It is surprisingly quiet, on the 1st floor, 30m from the train platform. But very large, 250+ diners - with opulent 19th century decor, chandeliers, frescos. At one time, I it could probably accomodate the entire first-class sections of several trains. That is no longer true. Expect to see sockless guys wearing sandals, or t-shirts, or cut-off jean shorts. With luggage. The cuisine is not too bad, easily the best Parisian restaurant among all six main train stations. Probably the best restaurant in any RER or Metro station, as well. The service seems designed for classic French cuisine, to impress simple travelers on their first visit to Paris, Unfortunately, there was not enough staff, wearing their little name-tags, for the mobile carving stations or to prepare beef tartare or crêpes Suzette at the table.

So this place could be 5 stars but it has 2 main drawbacks. 1 - yes, it gets hot inside and being kinda fancy place (like you better wear a shirt), it gets annoying and makes it less enjoyable 2 - it was popularized by influencers so it gets busy, and service suffer Now the good: - the food is surprisingly good, I mean look at the pics! Some of it is prepared at the table side such as the tartare or the lamb - the ceilings and the ambience is really cool and beg for instagram worthy pics - service is good on less busy days and servers are generally very available, so try to book on weekdays - you can conveniently grab a cab from right next to the train station (but watch out the line can grow big!) So this place honestly has Michelin star potential, it just needs a way to cool it down a bit and maybe cut a good 25% of the seats to keep the ambiance less noisy and the service more consistent read more
