Our family of six ate here on a Sunday night..our last night together in Paris. The restaurant is very pretty. We had reservations here and only had to wait for our table for about 10 minutes. Service is very good...friendly, helpful, patient. Waiters were willing to take requests for slight alterations in menu offerings due to diners likes and dislikes. Food was delicious. Not the biggest menu but everything on it was well prepared and good size servings. The sweetbreads were a standout. Desserts were very good, as well. Would definitely recommend. One of our best dining experiences in Paris...Hope it moves up the Michelin ladder! read more

It meets almost all my expectations of a Michelin 1 star. On vacation with the family in Paris and found this restaurant as I scrolled through restaurant choices near Eiffel Tower and Museum Orsay. What caught my eyes first was the dessert, foie gras, and Pigeon Wellington. We ordered 2 tasting, 2 signature, and 2 additional soufflé. All of the dishes were well prepared. The most memorable for me were the langoustine ravioli and millefeuille. The langoustine ravioli's intense soup flavor paired with sweet and springy ravioli took the dish to another level. The mullefeuille was crispy and flatly at the same time and the caramel it came with took me by surprise. Almost all the caramel I've had back in the states were just overly sweet but the caramel here was just perfect between sweetness and the aroma of the caramel. Service was ok for a fine dinning restaurant. To be fair we did go at 1PM and the meal expanded way beyond their lunch service hours. For example, our water cup was empty for an extended period of time before I had to call our server to pour more water. A few small flaws (personal opinion): there was a small pebble in the lobster risotto, the monk fish was slightly fishy in taste and lacked the springy texture of "the poor man's lobster". The final alcohol pour in the soufflé (the souffle was made perfectly) was too much and completely overpowered the dish. read more

Wow. This was by far our best Michelin restaurant experience in Paris so far! The restaurant itself is beautiful, located right near the Coldwell Banker office. From the moment we walked in, the service was warm and welcoming. They started us off with cheese puffs, almonds, complimentary panna cotta, and fresh bread -- such a thoughtful touch. We enjoyed an excellent bottle of wine to pair with the meal. For starters, we shared a Salt Country Spelt (risotto-style) appetizer with mushrooms -- absolutely delicious and highly recommended. For the main course, we had the beef fillets steak with peppercorn sauce, hands down the best steak in Paris, served with a comforting pot of creamy mashed potatoes. Dessert was unforgettable: we ordered the millefeuille (Napoleon), and they also surprised us with lemon tart, a chocolate-coffee mini, and a madeleine. Every bite was perfection. If you're looking for a romantic, memorable, and truly delicious dining experience in Paris, I highly recommend this restaurant! read more

We had a great time in this restaurant. Disclaimer, please make sure that you do read the menu especially for dinner. We came in expecting that the five course tasting menu was €80 when the truth was it's actually just for the wine pairing. The 5 course dinner menu which is really €160 per person. Am I mad? Not really because from where we are from , you would really pay almost 1000 per person for a Michelin star experience like this one. However, it would've helped if they had a clearer explanation of the menu. I had a menu restriction where I don't eat meat, and the chef was graceful enough to substitute my entrée for the turbot instead. I heard the angel singing as I was eating my turbot dinner. I really don't eat that much so I probably would've gone better off ordering from just the à la cart menu. Unfortunately, I am deducting one star for this restaurant because they aren't allowing the flexibility for one party to order the five course while the other order the à la cart. For me, this is really a lot of food and wine. read more

Michelin one star in the 7th. Very good, ticked all the boxes. I had an innovative dish of spelt cooked as a risotto with lobster (yum!) and a really nice riz de veau paired with a young white from Marsannay. Dessert was a strawberry coulis. The only negative (if really a negative) was that the clientele was close to 100% American. It was like I was surrounded by the Real Housewives of New Jersey and their families. So if you're looking for something Parisians are actually going to you might want to look elsewhere, but as far as great food you won't go wrong here. The maitre d' is also an author who wrote a short novel on immigration in France - his concept is very interesting, worth asking about. Very nice service team. Restaurant has no view of the Eiffel Tower (and don't ask them! Though their response is pretty funny) but very nice, prim and proper dining room. read more

Rounded off our Euro Michelin meals here. We started in Amsterdam, next up was Berlin then ended at my favorite city in the whole world - Paris. You know how I know my French isn't as good as I thought it was all week? We walked in slightly early for our reservation and the woman who seated us asked if we wanted the menu in french or English and I had not a clue what she said. We laughed when it all clicked in. I am so glad this is the spot I picked when I was going through a list of places to eat at in the city as I have a tradition of having a big meal on the last night. The ambiance here was so chill. We didn't even bother looking at the menu since we already knew we were doing the menu tasting. 7 courses, but no alcohol. I find when I do the wine pairing I end up being full quicker so I've decided to just focus on the food. Being the Americans that we are, I'm fairly certain our meal went a little quicker than normal. The table next to us started before us, but we finished before them. They ate ate. We stopped when the dish wasn't to our liking. There was only one course we didn't care for - the pigeon. That taste did not spark joy in my mouth. I took a couple of bites and tapped out. Overall, out of the 3 Michelin meals we had - this place hands down wins as the best bang for your buck. The Amsterdam tasting was the most expensive, but did come with the most food, some I couldn't finish. The Berlin tasting, while completely vegetarian, was probably the most satisfying. This tasting was the perfect portion and most cost effective. It's7 courses with an amuse bouche and an extra serving of dessert so it felt more like 9 courses really. At the end of the night, we were full and satisfied. If you're here for a late dinner, I highly suggest walking two blocks over to the Eiffel tower and wait for the lights that come on for 5 minutes that starts at the top of the hour. We found the perfect spot and watched it twinkle like we were on top of it. It was a magical moment. Thank you for a great meal! read more

What a great great experience! We walked by this restaurant by coincidence and we were looking for a dinner spot for the night so we decided to go in. We asked if they take walk in and they did. I highly recommend reservations as the place gets busy and I think everyone else had a reservation. Staffs are super nice and prompt, Juliana helped us a lot on wine recommendations and even gave us tips on where to get good wines on our own. After some warm greetings, we were served with some free appetizers from the restaurant. The green mouse thing (I forgot the name) was so delicious. It's some type of purée with caviar and cream on top. I was snacking on it and know that we made a great choice. Everything we had was delicious, I mean it, everything. From the crab cakes with dill, lobster salad, mushroom risotto (omg, why so delicious, what's the magic ingredient?!) to tuna fish, pigeon Wellington style. Desert is also fantastic, cream Mille is so perfect we were full and still managed to ate them all. Then again, they gave us more free desert at the end and we managed to finish those too! I'm definitely recommending this place to my friends who will travel to Paris later. I really wish I would've dressed up a little for this nice occasion. read more

Absolutely not a place for tourists. We stayed in Paris for a week and this was worse than anything we could imagine. Over priced, horrible food, horrible service. We went there in hopes of having a nice dinner and souffle. The souffle had a sunny side egg in it. The table next to us that we're locals got a sauce with it. When I asked where our sauce was, the reply was, we don't have a sauce. When I confronted them about the egg, the answer was, yes it's supposed to be like that. Little did they know my wife has been making souffle at home for years. read more

This was our first Michelin experience during our honeymoon and it did not disappoint! The entire dinner ensemble was curated with such delicious intention and detail. The crab remoulade and duck foie gras was a great start for our palate. We enjoyed the sea bass more than the Wellington style pigeon personally as it was a little more gamey for our preference. But we absolutely melted in to dessert with the Ossau-lraty raw sheep's milk cheese and then the Profiteroles with bourbon vanilla. The staff was excellent and made our experience personalized for our honeymoon and also seated us somewhere a little more private! read more

my first michelin dining experience was enlightening! we came in for the 2-course lunch meal €58/person. excellent, attentive service. they accommodated to our tourist needs (like needing an outlet and wifi). the food presentation was exquisite and you could tell each dish was prepared with care. I personally really loved both the starters--the truffle ravioli in broth and the scallops. the portion size for the beef was much larger than the fish but both were rich in flavor. left very very full and they gave a surprise little treat! read more

This restaurant was simply lovely! The staff are exceptional and extremely friendly. I made a reservation (highly recommended), but for the wrong day, but they were able to still get us in. The quality of the dishes was high and portions were perfect. The only issue I had was with the soufflé; they poured in way too much Grand Marnier which overpowered the flavor of the soufflé itself. I ordered the pigeon and it will be a dish I dream about until I go back! read more

My dad and I were planning on eating at Chez L'Ami Jean, but when we arrived at opening, we found out that they were fully booked. We weren't that hungry, however, so we started walking to the Eiffel Tower. We found this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try. When we got there, we found out that it is one Michelin starred, so we thought we would've be seated due to our casual attire and no reservation. To our surprise, the host was super friendly and welcoming, and squeezed us in at the one open table until 9pm. Everyone spoke English really well, and each waiter explained the dishes of the menu to us clearly. My dad and I got the beef consommé with foie gras and the spider crab jelly appetizers. Both amazing! We ordered the pigeon and the lamb for our main dishes. Incredible! The pigeon and lamb were both cooked so well and super tender. I got the pear dessert with caramel ice cream. I usually don't enjoy desserts with warm fruit, but I thought I'd give it a try because it seemed to be the most popular item. My dad and I trusted the waiter on each dish, and we're glad we did! This is my third time in Paris, and even with two more days left of my stay, I think I can safely say that this was the best meal I've had in Paris. read more

Fancy enough to offer great food and deserve a Michelin star. Casual enough for a family lunch and good conversation.

If you walk too fast, you'll miss this gem and possibly some of the greatest cuisine in the area. We chose to visit this restaurant at the last minute - the best decision of our trip to Paris! An absolute must if you're in the area and looking for a dinner spot. Did I mention Michelin Star worthy??? read more

A fantastic first Michelin experience at a Christian Constant resto. First thing that's noticeable is the warm service even though we showed up dripping from the rain and carrying a most unfashionable backpack. The place feels classy without being uptight. Opted for the 3-course lunch menu, very reasonably priced at 55 euros. I had an egg-based starter with very creamy consistency (the French name fails me now). My partner's tartare was the best we had in Paris (ok we just had two, but still). We both opted for the veal main which was a pretty large portion with a nice fatty layer which I also ate without shame. The Hot Grand Marnier soufflé made me wish for a second stomach. Again a huge serving and warm and jiggly. The server pours the Grand Marnier at the table and it was just the best. Hostess also willingly offered to take our picture. Bonus points for friendliness read more

Since we were going to check out the Eiffel, a good friend recommended we dine here at Le Violin d'Ingres. We made reservations online at thefork which was super easy. Walked in to find out we were a bit underdressed but service was outstanding. As we browsed the menu, the waiter brought out warm baguette and butter along with some salami and fresh radish, all of which were amazing! They did have a lunch set menu which seemed like a bargain at €45 but the appetizer didn't seem as appealing as the soft boiled egg rolled in bread crumbs that I ended up ordering. The soft boiled egg was simply amazing! Two perfectly soft boiled eggs rolled in some tasty bread crumbs served with some greens and some sliced bread. A definite must order and am thankful the waiter recommended this over the foie gras. For my entree, I was torn between the veal and the beef my way. I ended up ordering the veal and though it was tasty and perfectly cooked, the sauce did get a bit old towards the end. Their take on mac n cheese was awesome as well. What was weird was that they served a small piece of romaine lettuce which I didn't even try. I was stuffed beyond belief with both the app and entree that we couldn't even order the soufflé as we had planned. They did bring out fresh madeleines and pecan brittle which were amazing but we just couldn't put them down. Would definitely come back to dine here again. read more

Bonjour a warm greeting at the door as it's being open for you to enter by the hostess. All the staff members are very friendly and wait patiently as I was very indecisive on what to order for our last meal before we leave to fly back home. Each entrees was described and explained in details. Everything that was served to us was just superb. If have time I could stay there all day to try each and every entree on their menu. But unfortunately we had to leave. As our bill (linen type up receipt) being process, the hostess came by to give us a freshly baked Madeline cookies. I almost ask for the whole basket. It was warm, crispy, lemony and ooh so moist. It's that simple touch that makes you want to go back. And that what makes them a Michelin star restaurant read more

We made a reservation at this restaurant (a few months ago) after reading all the positive reviews. And also, we wanted to try a Michelin restaurant in France to see how the quality of food differed from the US. We arrived a little earlier than our reservation time, but we were able to be seated quickly by the host. In the beginning, the waitress was very attentive. However, as the restaurant became more crowded, she was less attentive. It looked like she was the only waitress working that night because I saw no other person. Every person had their own job function. Our waitress not only took our order but when it was served, she also explained every dish to us. And she did this to every table. So it was understandable that she, alone, could not give every table the same attention. In the beginning, we were given parmesan bread sticks, bread and butter. Then, we were also given bread puffs with a whipped fish and potato dipping sauce. Even though it was tasty, I'm not a fan of fish in my spread. For starters, we had the tuna tartar. My mom and I shared that dish. We were expecting to share a plate but instead they divided the tuna in half and served it on separate plates. It was so flavorful and delicious. My brother and my dad did not order a started but they were given a complimentary dish. For the main course, I had almond crusted sea bass. It was soft and flaky and the crust had a nice crunch. And it was a decent size too for a Michelin restaurant. My parents got the lobster and my brother got the veal. Everyone seemed to enjoy their dish. For the dessert, we had the souffle and chocolate cake. As with the tuna tartar, the chocolate cake was divided into 2 plates. For the soufflé, the waitress added extra Grand Marnier and caramel sauce. Both dishes were decadent and great way to end the meal. read more

Came here for lunch and had a wonderful time. We had the tasting menu plus one additional appetizer that was the special of the day. The food was really good and the atmosphere even better. Even though it was fine dining, it didn't feel stuffy and we were OK dressed in jeans and a button down shirt. Majority of the patrons were tourists and the staff was fluent in English so it made it very easy. My server moved me to a larger table because I had a knee injury and he wanted to ensure I had enough space to stretch out. So nice! The food was as good as it looked. The desserts I tried were good but not great. They had soufflé on the menu but it wasn't part of the tasting menu so I didn't try it but it looked really good. They had a extensive wine list. We stated our price range and qualities we like in wine and our server selected us a bottle from the Bordeaux region that we liked. I had a wonderful dining experience and would recommend this place. read more

The staff was exquisite. Especially the manager, Bruno. Attentive, responsive, accommodating and sincere. We recommend this place highly.

Gah! Don't do it. I wasted my big fancy dinner in Paris on this place because I was fooled by the Michelin star and the TripAdvisor reviews. The house manger messed with us because my husband didn't speak French and was doing the ordering (I do, so I know that he did). We ended up getting charged €50 for four soft boiled eggs! He also upsold us to a really expensive bottle of wine, which the busboy tried to take off of the serving table in the back when it was half full. I saw it and called him on it, in French, and he put it back. The food had issues too. I ordered the veal medium, it was very rare. My husband ordered the veal special medium, it was over cooked. The desserts were the only really good part, but nothing was worth the price. read more

Fantastic, Amazing, Delicious. What else can I say. I love this restaurant. This may be one of the best places to eat in Paris. Make sure you get reservations a long time in advance since this is a very small venue and it fills up fast. I had a chef's choice dinner and let him decide what to bring me. I definitely wasn't disappointed. From soup with truffles, to foie gras and beef tongue, I was in heaven (take a look at some of my pictures from here). The waiter paired my wines with the various courses and was spot on. I highly recommend this place to anyone that enjoys a magical dining experience.

Food - the food is great. My husband and I both ordered the prix fixe dinner and a couple glasses of wine each. The server recommended wines that were both delicious and affordable, which I really appreciated. The shellfish soup was beyond amazing. Creamy and velvety and smooth yet light. The egg with truffle and bread was surprisingly delicious. I really liked the scallops with endive and orange juice reduction. The combination of sweet scallops and the bitterness of the endives were amazing. I really liked the duck confit with fois gras and lentils. The fois was to die for and the lentils were beyond flavorful. The cheese was good and the dessert was as well. Service - the service is excellent. They were attentive, funny, professional and fast. Wow. Final thoughts - although this restaurant is pricier, if you're looking to splurge, I highly recommend it. Great experience. Great food. Great service. read more

We had weekday lunch special (~48 euros for 2 courses, ~55 euros for 3) and it was amazing! I got oyster and salmon tartare, duck fillet and cream brûlée, my dad,foie gras and duck fillet, my mom, pumpkin soup and duck, and everything we had was sooooo good. Tartare wasn't fishy but super fresh, soft and refreshing. I once had gamey foie gras so I didn't even want to try when my dad offered me a bit but once I tried, it had this nice balance with the rest of the dish and my mind was blown. I heard beef stew isnt so hot here but everything we tried here was just awesome. We paid about 163 euros with 10% tip included for three people and the service was also very good. We were actually in line for a cheaper restaurant by this place so when we decided to just go in here, I got a little worried cuz we weren't dressed up AT ALL and my parents were just sent here so they don't really speak french. Nevertheless we felt very welcomed by the lady at the desk, she was soooo nice and respectful, and I could tell that a lot of the staffs work really hard and have passion for what they do and I felt this nice energy in the restaurant thanks to them. :)))) I would def go again and bring my friends here read more

The jewel of the three Christian Constant restaurants in a row along Rue Saint Dominique in the 7th in Paris. More formal than the other two, this one promises an exquisite experience. It delivers. We booked a day before and were willing to eat early in Paris, at 1900. We were the first diners there, and were welcomed and seated. The wine list is of course comprehensive and we started with a champagne. The meal and the service were exemplary. Attentive service respectful of the rhythm of our evening together. Her scallops and pasta were simple and elegant, my pigeon a lesson in the best way to prepare fowl. The Chassagne- Montrachet that accompanied it all was a revelation... fresh and a bit of flint. The setting was crisp linen and bright light in tones of cream and gold. Service a combination that embodies "French service", formal and professional with a touch of intimacy. A highlight of our week in this amazing city. read more

It's really good food... so why the 3-star... dunno... just not my thing I guess... started with lobster rav - yummy... sweetbreads for entree - yes indeed and finished with grand marnier suffle (with caramel - yuk).. Service was attentive and our waiter/manager was on top of things... but in all honesty he was much less than he thought he was... we saw on 2 occasions over the course of the night, him berate servers/buss staff... in other words, he's a bully.. Tried to be funny but it was arrogance that showed not humor... oh well, forget about him, let's focus on the restaurant, It was blasé with interior of any modern simple american set-up... nothing fancy, nothing elegant... I realize minimalistic can at times be elegant but not in this case... Seriously the food was good... just not going to drive across town for this place... meric avou. read more
