Jules Verne Paris - Buy Reservations

We had a good time in the beginning but we got food poisoning and no one from the staff came to help us out or ask how we were doing. We were just put into a cab and that was it. The food was decent but definitely not the best Michelin we've had. The view was great and is the reason to go! I think they don't have as high standards for service because they know people will always come to the tower. For example when we sat no one came by the table for quite a while with water or drink menu or aperitif. Would probably recommend at least one time if you want the view but don't go for the food. Unfortunately it put a damper on the rest of our vacation because we were sick afterwards.

What a fantastic experience!Now this is my first Michelin rated restaurant and we couldn't have picked a better one!Definitely a MUST if you're into the appreciation of all things culinary.... Add the Eiffel Tower setting and then: we'll it is just fantastic he.So why the 4 stars? I am not a food expert but for such a pricey locale, my steak was not medium rare, just medium, and my delicious pathe was delivered too cold, to my taste, as it sat and I ate, it became more maleable and the flavors then were indeed delicious- but I was disappointed at first, so for me, those are kitchen issues that a restaurant of this rating should not have had.Perhaps they are too used to people ordering their sampling menu- which we also ordered... but let me start with that.When you arrive you are taken by their own private elevator to the restaurant. We were not. The elevator broke down (for us) so we were guided to the general elevator, while we were always with one of the Jules Verne's personnel, it did feel rather awkward to me to be placed in front of all the tourists who had been in line waiting to get to the tower... just a strange vibe. From there we were guided to the entrance of the restaurant and to our waiting table. The maitre D' received us and apologized for the inconvenience- and when we finished our meal we got to use the elevator which had been repaired by then! What a different experience! Truly makes going up a much more exclusive affair.On to the restaurant and it's impeccable appearance , as well as giving kudos to the impeccable service. There was an array of waiters just... waiting on you! They performed the service which included descriptions of each plate in perfect unison (when needed) and made a "ballet" of bringing food that was manicured to perfection to the table. The service was impeccable. Of course I made the faux pas of resting both my fork and knife at one time on my plate- was taking a break from all the foi Gras... and they asked if I was done with my plate- my bad! So mind your manners when you go there. The placement of your utensils will signal to them when the next presentation will occur!So we had a choice of the sampling menu, (5 small servings with 2 sets each of entree, main course and then 2 desserts) or the regular menu: with your choice of one entree and one main dish. Both came with amouse-Bouches and appetizers- so we had little samplings coming and going for the 2 hours that our lunch lasted... it was beautifully orchestrated.Meanwhile we sat at a window with the magnificent view of Trocadero and it's fountains, knowing that we were enjoying the best of what culinary experiences and the Eiffel Tower could offer... for a very significant price. Make reservations well in advance. They fill out every seating! Reservations open 3 months in advance so you have time to pre-pay for your extravagant adventure ahead of your actual Paris date! (It doesn't count!) and they also have gift cards to help you manage your event.There were so many components in the 5 course sampler that I cannot in all honesty remember each... but I took pictures of them: they are a feast to behold! Just looking at them, their unusual appearance and sometimes unexpected components, made us not want to bite into them... but we had to taste each one, and so we did!The little scallop was exquisite- the cod was much better texture and flavors than the chicken piece but both presentations were equally interesting- there was like a cold soupy started with caviar that was very good and unusual... definitely a challenge to our taste buds but all all good! And the desserts were fascinating too! I got an apple tarting with this crème that was extra super good, and on the taster menu there were these 2 chocolate creations that were both deliciously chocolatey... yup I am posting the menu and the creations and you can judge for yourselves! We got wine to go with this all, and coffee at the end - which came with 2 little tiny mini sweets. All these little details that helped form the wonderful experience we had at the Jules Verne. Totally recommend this is your in Paris!Worth it! Bravo!Enjoy

On my 50th birthday, my wife and I had a wonderful dinner at this excellent restaurant. Incredibly nice service, wonderful environment and the idea of sitting 125 meters above sea level initiated by the world's foremost buildings make this a magical experience. Fine dining where I think you aim higher than a star in GM. Thank you Jules Verne for a great dinner a memorable experience. /Mats Samaras, Stockholm, Sweden

I was engaged in 2005 at the Jules Verne restaurant, I've dinned there since for lunch. This past November 12, 2021 my husband, Bill and I dined on our 16th wedding anniversary. The experience was thrilling, breathtaking and totally beyond our expectations. The seven course meal is so delicious you'll remember it for a lifetime. The impeccable service enhances the experience. The seasonal truffle mushroom risotto was our favorite. Hands Down, our most favorite restaurant in the world.

Happy birthday to me! You have the option of choosing the 3-course meal or the 7-course tasting menu and both my boyfriend and I splurged for the 7-course menu. Every course was super interesting and had many levels of flavors. Presentation and freshness are top notch! The views are very breathtaking and you definitely feel like you're on top of the world. We went for lunch because all of the dinner reservations were taken, but we still had an amazing experience. You have a private entrance and a private elevator up. You're able to gain access to the viewing deck after your meal and for a separate fee (booked ahead of time), you could also go to the top (it was closed for renovations when we were there though). Staff was very friendly and professional. If you're American, be sure to ask for the check when you are ready (the French believe in taking your time so they won't automatically get the hint that you're finished if you don't say anything). We got champagne (not included so be careful), and also wine that was more expensive than we would have liked, BUT, you're going there for the experience, so splurge if you must. The 7-course meal was worth it in my opinion and was filling enough. At night, we grabbed savory crepes to save some money instead of going out again and it was perfect (we tried many different place and the chicken and cheese crepe right next to the merry-go-round is the best)! If you are used to super fancy food, this may not impress you, but coming from a girl who isn't used to such fancy places, I was blown away.
