Septime was one of the hardest reservations we have ever tried to secure. We crazily stayed up until 2:00am for an entire week trying to get reservations because they would be gone in less than a second. But our cray cray paid off and we were able to enjoy a good meal at one of the top restaurants in the world.The food was good but not great and I don't think I would be staying up late again trying to get these scarce reservations for this tiny restaurant. My two favorite dishes of the night were the mussels and veal. They were tasty and melt in your mouth delicious! At the time of this writing it is currently ranked #24 in the worlds top 50 and this only cements the fact that taste buds are totally subjective!

Very difficult to get in, but so worth it. An unassuming, casual spot with incredible food, drinks and hospitality. The meal isn't long - only about 5 or 6 courses, but each dish was so perfectly executed that I did not want the meal to end. The house-made juices are not to be missed, we had one of each. The pairing was great, somm was extremely knowledgeable, and the pricing for everything was extremely good. This is a restaurant that I would eat at regularly if I lived in Paris, and will be one that I return to every trip to Paris.

Really incredible food, but the sommelier is so nice and clearly loves his job! Very knowledgeable and very very nice!

This is a long overdue review given that we visited in early June, but Septime was one of our favorite meals in Paris. Scoring a reservation was a stressful experience via online and phone, but ultimately I snagged a lunch spot. To note, we tried to utilize AMEX Platinum's concierge service but were told the restaurant no longer accepts 3rd party reservations and requires guests to book directly. We arrived almost 15 minutes past our res time, thanks to a prior meeting running late, but mercifully they still accommodated us. From there, our lunch experience was simply delightful from start to finish. I opted for the wine tasting and our sommelier was so knowledgeable - we appreciated hearing the story behind each wine, as opposed to being given a perfunctory explanation. Each of the dishes was creative, fresh, and flavorful, highlighting simple ingredients; the chicken ended up being our favorite (and chicken is normally my least favorite protein). My mom ordered one of the non-alcoholic beverages and it was beautiful and super refreshing. The restaurant itself is bright, cozy and rustic. Service was impeccable, as expected. One of our most memorable meals to date!

Everything was fresh and new to the pallet. Could not recommended this experience more. I would recommend including the tasting as well.

This is the second time I have eaten at Septime. The first was back in 2012 when it was not as sought after as it is now (high end parisians didn't go to the sketchy 11th but it was on the radar as an up and comer which is what I look for on my visits to major cities). Having not been able to get a reservation due to demand in the last 4 trips to Paris, some friends and I were able to snag one this time. Well, let me tell you first, that the women behind the bar at their holding bar or Cave across the street was a dream. She was pleasant and accommodating. The space is super, old parisian cool. We moved across the street to the restaurant and the servers were great, the food amazing ( we had the 7 course wine pairing menu). Here is where it goes down hill. While the food was excellent, diversified and tasty on so many levels and, frankly, the wine pairings were spot on ( I know a little about wine pairing by training), the self absorbed condescending attitude of the sommelier and the way he treated us by talking down to us when we asked the simplest of questions or tried to engage him in simple conversations such as "Where are you from?", "Where did you study wine?". Anything was met with a talking down, dismissive, attitude that didn't ruin the meal but made him having to come back 7 times an annoyance. Then of course, we knew we could afford to eat there and, short of being an employee, we knew he couldn't, so we could more easily dismiss him, than him us,. But for C sake, we are the customer. We weren't rude, we were inquisitive and a sommelier, like all servers in a restaurant, need to enhance the dinner's experience but I was totally put off and won't return

Septime is among the most difficult places to book, not only in Paris but anywhere. I did not succeed in 2017 and 2019. This time we booked lunch, with three mobile phones and the help of a colleague all hitting the website at 9:59:59 am for a slot three weeks later. It was worth it. Lunch was extremely pleasant, with the surprise 5 course menu offering simply constructed but tasty dishes with harmonious flavours. The marinated raw scallops with yuzu, a dish with autumn mushrooms and a creamy almond flavoured broth and the dish main (merlan) were all very good. The winelist is almost entirely made up of organic and bio wines. The Greek wine as an apero was fine, the bottle of St-Aubin from H. Lamy very good... Service was efficient and fast but friendly. As was to be expected, the place was totally packed and many would-be lunchers turned away....

A wonderful dining experience with a thoughtful menu that was executed to perfection. Each course involved simple ingredients and introduced elevated flavors and textures. The only downside was the place is small so it can feel cramped but for the price and quality of food, I could overlook this minor concern. I enjoyed each of the 7 courses and will definitely try for another reservation when I return to Paris!

I wish I could review the restaurant but all I can comment on is the online reservations. I woke up in the middle of the night in California and had the reservation on my screen. Their system(zenchef) couldn't process my card (I tried several) and eventually timed out. Very frustrating.

Excellent experience! Don't be afraid to make your way there even if you can't get a reservation because "The Cave" will provide excellent offerings from the main restaurant. This is a must visit, don't make a mistake by not experiencing it!

Bertrand Grebaut, the graffiti artist turned chef; breaking fine dining rules in a more casual environment. First off, reservations are extremely hard to come by. Initially we snagged a dinner spot online but had to change it to a lunch. Tou must make reservations 3 weeks in advance at 10am paris time. If interested, I would both spam refresh on the page as well as call on the dot. The meal itself was ok. Service was extremely friendly but was it worth it? Is it truly a worlds 50 best restaurant? Of the 5 prefix dishes, one was exceptional, a couple were fine, and none were bad. The main of the tasting menu, the chicken was the exceptional dish. Everything else including the carrots and ceviche were just fine. Overall, septime is a restaurant serving up hyperseasonal fare at a reasonable price. If I had a week in Paris and only had a handful of meals, would I go to septime? In retrospect no, but everything is always hindsight 50:50. If you are able to easily get a reservation, give it a try. If not, dont sweat it. Go somewhere else. If you are vegeterian, you may appreiate this hyperseasonal cuisine more so.

We tried to book a table at Septime. This is possible only 3 weeks in advance which, basically, is fine. There is an unsurmountable problem, however: No way to communicate via e-mail. Calling via phone is practically impossible (endless waiting until the connection breaks) and booking via website seems to be impossible, too. At 07:10 in the morning, 3 weeks before the anticipated date, no tables available. Too bad, could be bad luck. Underlying, however, is a major failure in communication. This is not the level of professionalism we would exptect from a restaurant that highly decorated.

Went to the restaurant tonight with much anticipation. My husband and I were topping off our anniversary trip in Paris with Septime as the pièce de résistance. Honestly, this was so disappointing. We let them know that I didn’t eat fish, but would eat shellfish. I was thinking I would be getting meat or some other equivalent as a substitute for the fish inclusive items. I did not. I received pickled turnips and artichokes as the substitutes for tuna and another white fish that was served to my husband. I had maybe 3 oysters as my protein for the evening. The dishes were inventive and aromatic, but €110 is high for mostly vegetable items topped with sauces. I did enjoy the flavors with the wine pairings, but this is not the go to restaurant. We finished out dinner and was served dessert. After dinner our service basically ended. No one bothered to check in on us or even brought the check for about half an hour. Never even offered coffee.We were the first to arrive at the restaurant. We were treated much better at Frenchie and Mokonuts and their food was amazing.Feeling pretty upset over the whole “experience”.
