My mother and I had dinner here last Wednesday, and it was one of the highlights of our trip. First, the view of the Eiffel Tower is absolutely unbeatable and makes the whole evening feel special. We sat on the terrace and when it got chilly, they brought us a blanket without us even asking, which was such a thoughtful touch. We had the escargot and burrata, followed by the filet de bœuf béarnaise, frites fraîches and the tagliatelles á la truffe. Everything was exceptional. Classic, perfectly done, and so satisfying. I would've loved dessert, but unfortunately we had after dinner plans. Next time! And lastly, the sommelier's recommendation was perfect. He guided me to a wine I might not have chosen myself, that paired beautifully with my meal. I didn't catch his name, but he made a lasting impression. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. We will be back soon! read more

Absolutely adored this high end dinner place with views of the Eiffel Tower. We had to be a little pushy about a table with a view but glad we did. Service was a highlight as is the gorgeous dining room. But the food can match. Don't miss the spring rolls. Fantastic. And the steak with fries was also outstanding. The beef was so tender and cooked perfectly. Not cheap but this was one place we were happy to pay what we did. read more

I would avoid Monsieur Bleu at all costs if in Paris. The Eiffel Tower is not even visible from their outside due to the awning and trees. Additionally, the service was abismal at best. We placed our order and waited for a ridiculous amount of time (about 40 minutes). Our server actively avoided eye contact with us, and we had to get up to flag someone down. Once we did, she revealed that they were out of what we ordered. They didn't even think to tell us that they were out or offer us something else to order. On top of that, the food is mid at best for ridiculous prices. The only good thing was the espresso martini. Go find a smaller spot in a less touristy area! read more

I want to brag on the service at this place! This was my first time in Paris and for my last night in town, my friends who are now local to Paris took me to Monsieur Bleu, one of their favorite restaurants. We entered through the Palace de Tokyo where we were entertained by a skateboarder and also witnessed a runway model practicing her strut. The restaurant is situated very close to the Eiffel Tower, perfect for viewing and taking a stroll to after dinner to see it sparkle (which we did). Despite our waitress not having the best day and accidentally knocked over my water glass and a plate that ended up breaking on the floor, it didn't bother me at all nor ruin the experience. Nothing spilled on me and she was very apologetic and immediately cleaned it up. Entertainment: There is a DJ at night and also a couple of singers and guitar players that sang and played versions of popular *American* tunes. They were wonderful! Drinks: *Raspberry Martini* This was my favorite drink of the night. The flavors were incredible and the raspberry puree that they used made this drink taste fresh and bright. *Apple Martini* It tasted just like apple juice! A little sweeter than I would have liked, but still delicious. I preferred the raspberry martini over this one. Food: *Escargot* delish snails topped with pesto sauce...served with breadsticks *Veal* The description for this dish was misleading. I was not expecting a fried veal cutlet, but it was massive and very deep fried - more American style and I was hoping for something lighter. The flavor of the veal was good, but I could only stomach 2 bites. The waitress was very kind and let me pick something else on the menu instead. *Mashed Potatoes (Side dish)* the creamiest mashed potatoes I've ever eaten in my life. So freaking good! *Sea Bass (Filet de Bar, Tomates, Olives Noires, Beurre Blanc, Riz Parfume) - Served with tomatoes, black olives, beurre blanc, and jasmine rice. Very delicious and way better than the veal! The fish is light and the white sauce paired well with the fish and veggies. *Chocolate Cake* to die for. This was a chocolate molten lava cake on the inside and just sooo good. Not too rich. Served with vanilla ice cream. I recommend this place if you are new to Paris. Must go for great entertainment, incredible Eiffel Tower views, top quality food, Craft cocktails, and amazing service! read more

This place is all style and very little substance. Nice staff, cool ambiance and proximity to the Eiffel tower but its food and drink quality leaves ALOT to be desired. One of the pricier places we ate at during our visit to Paris. This place is getting away with it because of the views and location. It's no different than going to a rooftop bar/restaurant in DTLA or midtown Manhattan. If you're looking for a hip place to get dressed up and peacock around other fancy people this is it. Or if you're looking to impress a client or host a corporate happy hour this could also be an option. If youre looking for high quality dining, this isnt it. read more

Points for gorgeous, huge terrace, well covered by umbrellas and shockingly peaceful given that it sits next to the highway that runs alongside the Seine. High-quality food and beautifully served. Very warm and gracious servers. I would say that the price was high, but given the location, I understand. There seemed to be a lot of corporate events happening the night that I went . A solid choice for a date night or night out on the town when you're near the Eiffel Tower. read more

So the girlfriend and I were looking for a restaurant with a nice view of the Eiffel Tower. It was an important event, as I was giving her a promise ring. After doing some research, I found this restaurant. I made reservations way ahead of time, a few months before I got on the plane to head to Paris. Fast forward to that evening. We were driven from our hotel to the Eiffel Tower. We took some photos, then walked over to this restaurant. We walked up a quick set of stone steps, and walked inside. We told the hostess that we had requested seating on the outside patio, and that I was told when I called ahead of time that the table would be available. However, the hostess told me that the outside patio was closed due to the cold. So the only option was sitting inside. The inside had electronica music playing, which normally would be to my tastes. But it was not appropriate considering the occasion. The place was also very hot, to the point that I sweated profusely. This was actually a recurring problem with many places we went to in Paris. We decided to forego our reservation, and we decided to dine elsewhere. I'm sure this place might be great for dinner with friends. But they need to advertise more accurately. If they tell me that the outside patio and a table with views of the Eiffel Tower would be available, they should stick to that. The weather wasn't even that cold, and I'm from southern California. They might want to tone down the heater, as I go to the gym to sweat, not to a restaurant. Where this place fell short, another restaurant saved the night. I won't come back here. But if you're planning of dining here, take my experience into consideration and plan accordingly. read more

Despite being a popular restaurant for tourists, my friends and I had a wonderful time at Monsieur Bleu. The food was excellent (a favorite among all of us was the green bean salad) and you can't beat its location right by the Eiffel Tower. The restaurant was unsurprisingly quite full and loud while we were there on a Saturday night and everyone was having a good time. read more

What a phenomenal evening at Monsieur Bleu. I wanted to have a "bougie dinner" one night on our family trip, with views of the Eiffel tower. Monsieur Bleu is located at the Palais de Tokyo and it is absolutely stunning. The restaurant is directly across from the Eiffel Tower and has a patio with great views. However, it's too cold to have the patio open so we ate inside. It is soooooo vibey in here. There's a DJ playing melodic deep house music and everyone dining in there seems fabulous. Our server Mateo was hilarious and ensured we had a great time. We ordered a looot of food. To start we got the beef carpaccio and the buffalo mozzarella. It was the most massive portion with an heirloom tomato salad. For dinner I split pork belly and cod with my sister. The cod was absolutely divine. We also got sides of truffle tagliatelle and jasmine rice bc why not. The pork belly came with mashed potatoes and they were so perfectly whipped. For drinks I got a dirty martini and also a lychee martini. Both were good. For dessert we got the pavlova and they sent us what tasted like a ferrer rocher chocolate since it was our Moms birthday. While this restaurant is definitely on the pricier side, if you want to splurge and dress up and have a vibey dinner it is definitely worth it. read more

We just a had corporate dinner at Monsieur Bleu, My perspective - Location/View: A+ Located right next to the Palais de Tokyo, and with a great view of the Eiffel Tower, the location and the scenic view is spectacular. Service: B+ Efficient and attentive. Appetizers: A Their tuna tartar was excellent. Main Entrée: C- I had their sea bass filet with tomatoes, basil, and eggplant. Nothing special... the sea bass was a bit bland and their mushy eggplant side missed the mark (no one on our table appreciated the consistency and taste). Additionally, this entrée was miniscule. Desserts: B Good but not excellent. Our table shared the Almond and Raspberry Pavlova, the Vanilla and Red Fruit Mille-Feuille, the Profiteroles, and the Strawberry and Rhubarb Tart. These desserts didn't measure up to the amazing desserts we've been sampling in many great Parisian locations. Portion Sizes: F Yes, I know portion sizes in France are small. And admittedly, I come from the US where portions can be enormous. But the portion sizes at Monsieur Bleu are embarrassingly small. I had to stuff my face with bread to fill my belly. My 5-year-old self would've gone hungry... So despite the incredible view and location, I'm not planning on returning anytime soon. read more

Another one of my favorite dinners from Paris! The Paris Society does not disappoint. The restaurant is a bit hard to find -- it's located on the backend of the Palais de Tokyo, but I have to say that the vibes here were so nice and pristine. My friend and I came for a nice dinner after work, and it was such a fun time. I started off with the Kyoto cocktail, which was refreshing and not too strong. We then got the Lobster Roll to share as an appetizer and I got the Tataki Crusted Ahi Tuna as my main. The Lobster Roll was a trendy take on the classic dish, though I thought they were a little skimpy on the portion of lobster, and the toast really. carried this one The tuna dish was delicious, but my favorite part of this was the avocado salad that accompanied it. It was citrusy and very fresh. Dining here felt like a real treat, and highly recommend for an upscale evening :-). read more

Very hostile and racist environment, treated poorly by staff left alone multiple times, seated at the back of the restaurant

Not gonna lie, I didn't love this place. We didn't have reservations and was glad that we got to try it. Main restaurant was big and loud for dinner. We were taken to a cramped second floor where it seemed like there were no windows. We were seated right by the stairs. The servers had to carry every single thing up and down the stairs. Not really sure if there was an elevator. The food was pretty decent, but nothing I can say was life changing. Had the foie gras with toasts for appetizer, salmon and pork belly for the main courses, and unfortunately had to skip dessert because we wanted to catch the last Eiffel Tower light show at 11 pm. All in all, a nice experience when in Paris. read more

This restaurant was truly phenomenal. Every single appetizer we ate was perfect. Even the food that wasn't my taste was objectively amazing. For my appetizer, I had the lamb chops, and, I'm not even kidding, they were the greatest lamb chops I've ever eaten in my life. Similarly, the lava cake I had for dessert was the best lava cake I'd ever had. The service was also phenomenal. Our waiter was always there when we needed him and he was exceptionally helpful and kind. Lastly, the view from the restaurant was fantastic! We could see the Eiffel Tower! read more

Although the inside was dark, and just okay aesthetically, the food at Monsieur Bleu was the BEST we had in Paris. The photos all highlight their gorgeous garden patio with views of the Eiffel Tower, but in the colder months they don't seem to use it (which was a bummer). We loved that they had a live DJ spinning tunes and the Spicy Beef was astounding; like melt in your mouth amazing. The staff was super friendly as well, and happy to help us in English, after we tried our best in French. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Paris to visit Monsieur Bleu-- food was exceptional, vibes were great, overall ambience inside were okay. read more

Came here with a family of 4, the ladies at the hostess stand were very sweet but that was the last time that someone was pleasant with us for the rest of the evening. Our waiter seemed like he couldn't care less and overall just created a very awkward experience. The escargots were tasteless, the bread and butter that came with the meal was okay, and the chicken and French fries were exactly what you think it would taste like. Most definitely not worth the large price point and most definitely would not return. read more

Food-Exquisite Service-Top Notch Ambiance-Beautiful With that being said I cannot give this restaurant the 5 stars it deserves because I saw mice running around the restaurant. At LEAST 3 times while we ate dinner. I dont know how normal that is in Paris but it freaked me out because the restaurant isn't empty. There a several tables here, loud talking & music playing...to see multiple mice or the same mouse several times is unacceptable. Informed the staff and the manager said "oh there's construction going on so there are a few mice running around" like it was okay. Please don't waste your money if you don't mind eating with mice at your feet. read more

Beautiful restaurant with (some) views of the Eiffel Tower depending on where you are seated. The restaurant is classy and gorgeous, with high ceilings and velvet curtains and chairs. Loved the vibes! The hostess at the door could care less about us though and was borderline unfriendly, but that's fine since our only interaction with her was when we entered the restaurant. The service from our actual waiter was good. We were seated in an area near a wall/fireplace that didn't have views of the Eiffel Tower so that was unfortunate. We ordered the octopus carpaccio and house made foie gras to start. We've never tried octopus carpaccio before but it was delicious! Lots of flavor and thinly sliced octopus, but not so thin that you couldn't taste it. Foie gras was good, but didn't entirely stand out. For our mains, we ordered the spicy beef and truffle tagliatelle to share. The spicy beef came with a side of tom yum sauce and coconut rice, which complimented the beef nicely, however it was not spicy. The truffle pasta was good as well but not mind-blowing. The pricing is on the higher end but none of the dishes really wow-ed me except for the octopus carpaccio. Overall, unless you can get a table with a view, I think there are other French restaurants with better food (and nicer hostesses, I hope). read more

My friends and I had an excellent time at Monsieur Blue: the food was the best we had in a 5 day Paris trip and the service was also on par. As a starter I had the Ravioli with langoustines and foie gras - absolutely delicious and so were my friends' starters. The mains were also very good, we had the seabass, steak and the octopus - all executed to perfection. In addition, the bottle of margaux we picked was absolutely fantastic. I initially was a bit hesitant as I was afraid that it would be a tourist trap, but the service was correct and the view of the Eiffel tower just added to the atmosphere. Will defo go again - highly recommended! read more

I came here because it was walking distance from my hotel. The restaurant is rather hard to find, I had to call and ask for help with the walking directions and the staff was very friendly and assisted me. Once arriving the staff was again very friendly. The outdoor seating area is beautiful with an amazing view. The restaurant has quite a few vegetarian options. I got the truffle pasta and it was so delicious, I cleaned the plate. The drinks were delicious as well. The waiter was attentive the entire time. I would highly recommend to all travelers! read more

We had been looking forward to eating at Monsieur Bleu for several months, not just for the food but also for the ambience in the beautiful Joseph Dirand-designed dining room. Imagine our surprise on finally arriving for the big event (a birthday celebration) and being told that the dining room was CLOSED. No explanation was given by the haughty hostess, who seemed annoyed to have to answer questions. We were shown to a table on the patio, which is very lovely but nowhere near as elegant as the dining room. For the good points: The service was excellent, with the waitstaff well-versed in English (although I speak French, my dinner companion did not) and very attentive. The food also was very good and beautifully presented. But we were ultimately disappointed that the restaurant did not make it clear in advance that the only seating option would be on the patio. Another note to management: Why require guests to wait outside the restaurant in the desolate concrete plaza of the Palais de Tokyo for the first (7 pm) seating when you could open the bar area at 6:30 pm and allow people to have a cocktail while they wait? read more

Just overall bad experience. Did not enjoy the service. Was recommended something we did not like. Thought it could of been us till I heard the server near our section better explain the item to his guests. Feel like we were pegged as tourists and just not given a great time. Ended up getting something else and they did not offer to take the first item off the bill. Spent 150 Euros on a steak that was undercooked. Manager and server came to table after they debated bringing it to us near us for 20 seconds. I took it because some of it was fine and we where not taking to go items with us. No offer of dessert or apology on miss steps still. We were recommended this restaurant by our hotel but we ended just wasting our money here. If this is what counts as "High End" in France I think we can find much better locally and that's disappointing. Would not recommend this place. Not worth the money and def felt like we where not taken care of. read more

We made reservations in advance. Arrived a little early and was going to wait in the patio until being seated as one of the waiters told us to. The hostess then came by in a snooty French tone and said "We are not open". We were then one of the first tables to be seated. Looking for something light,we ordered the Spicy Beef and the seared Tuna. Not one minute later,they brought our order out. They had to be precooking. Now the Tuna was supposed to be served cold,but it was gray through out Not from being over cooked ,but from sitting too long after cooking-maybe overnight? Overpriced, not impressive, served with an attitude. Don't believe you will get a view of the Eiffel Tower! read more

Came here last week on my trip to Paris! The location was great as you can see a view of the Eiffel Tower. However, the only thing good here was the truffle pizza.

While in Paris we ate at two Michelin star restaurants. Monsieur Bleu was better than both of them. The beef tartare was magique. We went on a Monday at 12 and they weren't too busy, but it did pick up as we left. The vibe was upscale- dress business casual for sure. The patio is lovely with glimpses of the Eiffel Tower. There is actually a string of Paris society tables restaurants we ate at Monsieur bleu and Giraffe. They were our best two meals. Highly recommend. read more

I'll be honest I came here because I saw on the news that president Macron had a lunch meeting here the day before. I asked what he ordered off the menu and to my dismay I was told he didn't order lunch. Damn I wanted to order what he had...... I was about to follow up that question with " where did he sit" lol My husband stopped me Anyways we had a great meal. They use very fresh ingredients and the staff is attentive. Our waiter spoke fluent English and French so it made ordering very easy. I was offered a menu in English but refused. I'm trying to become accustom to reading in French. The decor included velveteen sage green seating, black marble, white linen and hints of gold accents. I found the atmosphere very relaxing and low key. I ordered the lamb chops because they looked delicious in the other Yelp pictures. They came with the most glorious veggie side dish. Perfectly cooked cabbage and cauliflower with a sinfully delectable butter sauce. I was very tempted to order another one! My hubby got the pork dish.... he wasn't in love with it so we swapped. I liked the pork even more then the the lamb chops. This place claims to have a great view but honestly I wasn't able to see if. Nevertheless the restaurant was beautifully appointed and the service was great. I shall return! read more

My boyfriend was recommended this place for us to visit when we went to Paris and it was honestly the best meal we had while there. We sat outside facing the Seine (and technically the Eiffel Tower but it was blocked by trees). We started with the beef tartare which was hands down the best beer tartare we've ever had. I still think about it lol They also served complimentary bread as well as some delicious warm french fries. For the meal, my boyfriend got the pork belly with delicious potatoes and I got the seared tuna. Both were very good, but I liked his pork belly a little bit more. Overall a great experience, server was kind and friendly. Personally we weren't in a rush and enjoyed the gorgeous October weather, but it was more of a leisurely meal so keep that in mind if you're on a tight schedule. read more

We really enjoyed our visit to Monsieur Bleu. We had arrived in Paris from Bermuda the night before and had made reservations for lunch as our friends had recommended. We loved the atmosphere and had excellent customer service. Our food server was Sedi (not sure how to spell his name) He made great recommendations and kept our champagne glasses full. We had the escargot, the artichokes, and the beef fillet cooked perfectly and sliced table side by the maitre d who was very visible and definitely ensuring high quality food and service was being provided. One of the best experiences we had in Paris. We would highly recommend to friends and would return should we visit Paris again...Sante! read more
