Treated my vegetarian wife to a meal at Arpege for our anniversary. I am not vegan but thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our meal. The service was everything you would expect from a 3 star restaurant. My wife and I joked that they must have hidden mics because they anticipated everything we needed as we needed it and even addressed things we verbally wondered quietly to each other. They were mind readers. I was amazed at the diversity of the dishes. The preparation, presentation, and taste of each dish were incredible and all different. The menu changes daily and the chef uses ingredients from his own gardens so i imagine every meal would feel new. We actually got to meat the chef at the end of the meal and you can tell how passionate he is about sharing his love for vegan cuisine. If you are a meat eater like myself, do not be afraid to experience Arpege. It was well worth every penny.

Pure, delicious and beautiful. We had a lunch tasting meniu on a rainy Monday. It is a cosy atmospheric restaurant. Love the wall with all the flora and fauna. Every dish was exceptionally well prepared, going back to the roots, pure. Salad and asperges in hay were our favourites. The chef is very warm and charismatic person and once you meet him just for few minutes, you know he puts his heart and soul in his restaurant and dishes. Thank you for the experience and wish many more years of succesful plant based culinary experience ❤️

I visited Arpège tonight for my birthday and waited for this event for months. two years after a most exhilarating experience there. At that time every dish and every bite was a celebration of flavors with unimaginable complexity. This was done by a hand of a master touched by God. Tonight felt like I ate in a totally different restaurant. The plates were sloppy, the taste was mediocre and no more than that. Even the service lost its spark. The energy is different. This can't be a 3 star Michelin restaurant! I got to speak with chef Passard and mentioned how disappointed I was. He attributed it to "you like the butter". Having visited two weeks before that in a vegan Michelin starred restaurant which was outstanding I cannot accept the chefs excuse. You can do excellent mind blowing dishes even without the butter. Now you decide if you want to spend a fortune on this.

This was quite simple the most wonderful lunch I have ever had. From the setting to the staff and of course the food it was a truly a wonderful experience. I drank the best champagne I have ever had in my life, and then to top it off the chef came and greeted us along with the other guests and you could feel how proud he is of his restaurant but also how much he truly loves to make people happy with his exceptional food. I have never eaten vegetable dishes of such quality and so beautifully presented. I will come back here every single time I am in Paris. Special mention be given to our waitress in the pictures below - she was the most warm and kind hearted person who is truly passionate about her job. 10/10.

This was an unforgettable experience. The small dining room allows for impeccable attention to detail with service and at no moment would you feel a need or want without it already being taken care of. I felt undeserving of the royal treatment. Certain dishes brought a tear to my eye. You can truly taste exactly how each vegetable is meant to taste, done to its utmost perfection. You can feel the love and care taken with the menu and dishes.

Had lunch at Restaurant Auguste, the one-star Michelin restaurant by chef Gaël Orieux. The restaurant currently holds one Michelin star, awarded for the precision and quality of its cuisine. We tried the €47 lunch menu, with a chabli white wine and it was a very pleasant experience from start to finish. The place itself is calm and organized, with a quiet, elegant and smoked atmosphere that makes the meal feel relaxed rather than formal. With an intimate dining room, which creates a comfortable and intimate setting. The staff were lovely throughout the meal, attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming without being overly formal. The food was thoughtful and balanced. For the starter, the Morteau sausage with potato chantilly was rich and comforting, with the smoky flavor of the sausage softened by the light, creamy potato foam. The other option, the herb soup with escargots, had deep earthy flavors and a nice freshness from the herbs. For the main course, the maigre fish with butternut and citrus extraction was beautifully cooked. The fish was delicate and flaky, and the citrus element added brightness that kept the dish light and balanced. It’s the kind of plate where each component feels intentional and well-measured. Dessert was a roasted pear with malt and caramel, served with cocoa and foie jelly. It was an interesting combination sweet, slightly bitter, and layered with different textures. Not overly heavy, which was perfect after the meal. Overall, this is a refined but approachable Michelin-star experience. The cooking is precise and ingredient-driven, the atmosphere is peaceful, and the staff make you feel well taken care of. A great option in Paris if you want excellent food in a calm, understated setting. Definitely worth visiting. 🍽️ Booking highly recommended!

A true hidden gem. The food alone is worthy of two Michelin stars. Do not miss the signature menu where each dish surpasses the next. The kitchen knows how to cook seafood without overdoing it. The oyster was sublime, capturing the briny flavor of the sea while being plump and delicious for each bite. The langoustine ravioli was savory and was surpassed by the monkfish and scallops. The cheese course was delicious but could have been skipped. The lychee sorbet and the way the chef incorporates impactful gelees to enhance each dish is a masterclass.

Auguste is one of the great Parisian restaurants. I don't know how many Michelin stars it has already, but it is destined for three. It was recommended to us by the Maitre at my wife's culinary school in Paris and I can see why - its creativity, techniques, flavours, flair and standards are something that any restaurateur and chef would be wise to try to emulate

If you’re in Paris and looking for incredible value, this Michelin spot is a must! I went for lunch on a weekday and tried the menu, everything was absolutely delicious. The flavors are fantastic, the service is attentive, and the atmosphere is just perfect. Honestly, everything was flawless. Can’t recommend it enough!

Had a wonderful breakfast at Aux Ducs de Bourgogne during our time filming in Paris near the church. The traditional Breton galette with egg, ham, and melted cheese was delicious and perfectly cooked, and the butter and sugar crêpe was simple, authentic, and absolutely delightful. The atmosphere was warm and charming, with the feeling of a classic Parisian neighborhood crêperie rather than a tourist spot. The service was friendly and welcoming, and it was the perfect place to begin our day before filming. If you’re looking for authentic French crêpes in the 7th arrondissement, this is a lovely choice.

We popped in around 9pm on a Wednesday and it was just us and the owner. He speaks excellent English, was very friendly, and the food was exquisite. I had the Duchess crepe and my wife had the Breton, both were served steaming hot with a scoop of delicious vanilla ice cream melting in the middle. These are next level crepes, not like what you get from street vendors, far superior. I also had the Cafe Liégeois, so very good. I would bet everything on the menu is delicious.

Stumbled upon this place before going to the Rodin Museum. 2 crepes, small salad, and 1/2 bottle of wine for 34 Euros. The buckwheat crepes were outstanding. The wine was good excellent although everyone else was having the cider. Would definitely recommend.

Incredible crepes and the owner is precious! I look forward to coming here every time I am in Paris. A very welcoming place for both locals and tourists. Don’t forget to get the chef’s special for dessert.

Gâteau aux Poires A base of pear slices in a cake pastry with walnuts and fresh cream. 5€ Food: 2/5 Fair. This particular cake was a bit tasteless with nothing exciting. Its slight dry texture did not help the experience. Service: 5/5 Excellent. Polite and professional. Ambience: 5/5 Excellent. The view of Sainte-Clotilde from the terrace is absolutely stunning. The place feels like a hidden secret. Cleanliness: 5/5 Excellent. Not a spot of concern. Even the outdoor tables looked freshly wiped. Value: 5/5 Excellent. A cup of tea or coffee is only 2€50, and a gâteau at 5€ which means a light snack for only 7€50. Overall: 4.4/5 Very Good. I think I may have struck unlucky with this one pastry selection. I'm definitely going to revisit and try the popular cinnamon rolls. Perhaps next time I can rate the food better and raise the overall to Excellent.

We had a quick lunch here, stopping by chance. We had two salads, which were flavorful and a good size each. A special mention for my warm goat cheese salad, so amazing! The server was very friendly and attentive despite the busy lunch hour.

Food is amazing, light and flavorful. Service is fast and gracious. The clientele was mostly non natives while we were here but it was peak tourist. I would not let that dissuade you from this restaurant at all. So good!

This was a notch above a lot of establishments we have dined in in Paris. The decor is fresh & inviting. The tables are spaced adequately. We opted for the 3 course 44€ menu, but you can order a la carte. The options were interesting. I had pea gazpacho, while my partner had egg with mushrooms. Our mains were 2 fish dishes - bream with a hint of 🌶 & haddock/ mussels curry. For dessert, it was luxurious chocolate fondant. We enjoyed every course, & the service was efficient & welcoming. It was a very enjoyable dining experience.

We had an excellent lunch here today. From the moment we walked in the door the service was polite and professional. The food is truly special. The flavor combinations were great and the menu creative without being weird, but to be fair a lot of restaurants get that part. What really set the food apart was the technical skill. Everything, every ingredient was cooked perfectly. Our entree and main courses had several delicate ingredients that could easily be under or over or improperly cooked, but it was all prepared to the very second of perfection. The desserts and bread were also superb. The restaurant itself is cosy and warm but also elegant. We were there for lunch and enjoyed watching life go by out the large glass front, I imagine that the evening view is equally nice. Don’t let my English review let you think that this is a touristy type spot. Although they had an English language menu available and spoke great English to me, I was the only non-French customer there. My French husband was equally, if not more, impressed than me. 10/10

Nice place with friendly service but food is so so only. Texture of the fish carpaccio was a bit soft. The beet and passion fruit sauces were also a bit of a strange pairing for me. The pickles were nice. Some of the outer parts of the veal had been cooked until they were dry. A bit disappointing. Otherwise, the rest of it was soft and juicy. Taste wise not bad. Caramel muffin with ice cream was a nice finisher. Overall won’t be back and not worth my walk there.

The food was great and the it was very high in protein! We really enjoyed the fish and chicken. The only problem was that there were no vegetarian options. The wine was very good and we loved it! The staff were very nice and friendly!🙏🏻 Our waiter was Terry, he was very friendly and helped my daughter by cutting her bread when she needed help! The atmosphere was nice. It was in a great location and had very good seating options! This is a must go place in Paris if you like meat! You should definitely come here! 🙂

Wonderful restaurant, vibrant but not too loud and the interiors is very minimal which I personally like. Staff is great and good at what they do, can make the visit even better. You should 110% try their restaurant. With love from Norway.

The staff were friendly. However, the choice was limited, very limited for people on a meat-free diet, for example. They were offered a choice of fish and a pre-defined vegetable side dish. French fries were not available year-round, as these were reserved exclusively for grilled dishes. A self-service system for side dishes would be welcome, allowing customers to customize their plates as they wished. The vegetarian dishes and desserts, on the other hand, were generally very well prepared. However, allergens and ingredients used in processed foods (sauces, soups, desserts, appetizers) were not mentioned anywhere.

As I strolled past the newly unveiled restaurant situated just across from my hotel, curiosity pulled me inside. To my delight, I was welcomed by the owner who happened to be a single woman, an empowered woman! 🙌🏼 Everything on the menu looked yummy, but I opted for the stewed beef with white rice, my order arrived quickly, revealing a culinary masterpiece. The meat, exquisitely tender and flavorful, paired harmoniously with the fresh and delectable bed of rice. It was a delightful experience, marked not only by the scrumptious flavors but also by the empowering presence of a friendly staff. I urge you to give this place a try and support a small business.
