We were absolutely appalled when we arrived after an hour commute to the restaurant to be told or rather shouted at by two extremely rude security men that the restaurant was closed for a private function. They told us there was no manager working that we could speak to which could simply not be true. So at 9:30pm we were left with no restaurant to eat, even after going to the trouble of ringing the restaurant during the day to ask if there was a table which we were told there was, and then booking through open table as advised by the restaurant. What only heightened our disgust and dissatisfaction was the manner in which we were spoken to be security with one shouting at us “I will smash your face” . All of which was recorded on video. Overall a terrible experience and one I will most definitely share with others planning a trip to Paris.

Beautiful location, good food and vibes overall. We danced until they closed in front of the eiffel tower. What a treat! However was disappointed that the eiffel tower lights turned off 5 minutes after we sat down and that was the main thing we paid for. Apparently it closed an hour early in honor of the Israel, which is understandable and respectable, and something the restaurant doesn’t have control over. Another issue- we almost weren’t allowed in due to “dress code”. We were dressed nicely, nothing over the top fancy but we were wearing a long gold skirt and a black dress, no reason to get dress coded at a restaurant. Eventually he let us in after I already told him I paid $100 on opentable to just sit at the restaurant. (We paid another $180 for our meal) Anyway, it was a great experience overall and I can’t complain too much. The staff was super cool other than the bouncer guy. But the experience could have been better due to the things i mentioned.

Overall it was a very wonderful experience. However, you need to be more specific in your advertising about the 50 Euros per person to sit on the Terrace and what it includes. We were very surprised to learn that the cost of our food was on top of the 100 Euros per couple to sit on your Terrace. Yes, the view was spectacular, but you really should explain that the cost of the meal is not included!!!

Don’t trust open table for booking here. It lets you book for lunch even though they don’t open for lunch. And for dinner they might just not honor or even tell you that there is a private event. I had dinner reservations and they didn’t sit me.

Terrible service. Waiter charged a 35 percent service fee on top of the cost of food. He threw away the itemized receipt. He brought a crumpled up receipt. We checked the bill and realized we were overcharged. He then gave us cash back for the service charge. It was a terrible experience Will never return

There is a dress code that is not mentioned on open table. Apparently men are not allowed to wear shorts, that said my son had to go back to the hotel, which was a 40 minute round-trip to change from shorts to pants. What is most disconcerting is that two other male patrons entered the restaurant wearing shorts while we were dining. Obviously a double standard. When we complained to one of the managers about this slight, she did apologize profusely and offered us a free dessert. At least the dessert paid for half of the Uber rides my son had to pay for. The $50 dollars per person extra surcharge to sit on the patio to view the Eiffel Tower is obstructed by a very large statue on the patio. The food was mediocre at best. I’ve had better at other much cheaper French cafes. Service was typical French slow, but we had to ask for mineral water and more champagne many times before it finally arrived. One surprise is that when my wife mentioned she was cold, they brought her a very nice blanket. The one and a half hour time limit to sit on the patio isn’t really enforced as I saw many patrons dine outdoors for two hours or more including my table. Overall, I think you can find other French restaurants which are worth your time. I personally would cross this off my list and wouldn’t recommend this place to my worst enemy.

Front row location to observe the Eiffel Tower. The terrace has an ultra lounge vibe and dim light ambiance’s. At 11pm, when the tower lights began to sparkle, there is no better place. I had the truffle pasta and my wife enjoyed the beef tenderloin. Excellent place to enjoy a bottle of wine or champagne. Have your camera handy!

Staff was incredibly rude, after having a reservation they informed us upon arrival it was 50 per person to sit on the terrace. The man rudely stated in the reservation it states that, which it did not. I had two children with me so why would I pay that for a glass of champagne and outdoors when I was going to pay to eat. However directly next door they have a wonderful restaurant Girafe with exceptional people and free outdoor seating with the same view.

Great food. Great view. Tables are extremely close to each other. I brought my kids and Unfortunately the table next to us kept smoking and made my kids sick. I wish there was more room or they could have put us in one of the alone tables for better experience. Bill was over $500.00 but only thing we would change would be table placement.

I had a fabulous experience there for dinner last night while traveling solo and wanted a special experience. Can’t speak highly enough about the service, wine and food. Two things to know: 1 if you want the fantastic terrace view seating, there is a €50 charge (includes champagne) AND 2 regardless of what open table says, you need to CALL the restaurant to confirm your reservation and seating request. I did this and had no issues and reiterate a great experience. I even got to compliment the head chefs when they came out to thank me for dining. Two other notes: the DJ gets fairly loud the later it gets and pay attention to sunset times if you want to see the tower sparkle…my 8:30pm rez in July was not late enough for the full effect (first twinkle at 11pm) can’t wait to go back on my next visit!
