Jules Verne Paris Reviews
Perfect experience for special day
Unbelievable location, view service and of course food. Special experience from been met at the entrance of the tower. The service team made you feel welcome and treated perfectly. The food is unreal, we went for the 5 course as felt we may struggle to eat the 7 and fully enjoy. I now wish I went for 7 course after seeing other dishes. To top it off my girlfriend said yes after proposing to her inside the restaurant. All in all a 5 star plus experience.
Extraordinary eating experience with a view of Paris
We were treated like royalty & ate like queens. The food was extraordinary; a 6 course chefβs tasting menu that was so good it was hard to pick favorites
10/10 can second what many other reviewers have said about
10/10 can second what many other reviewers have said about just how incredible this experience was. We felt like VIPS from the moment we walked in the door. The ambiance, service, and of course the food was all outstanding. This truly was a culinary experience of a lifetime for me. They naturally cater very well to American Tourists and speak good English. They made us feel welcomed and doted on the whole meal which was wonderful. We did the full 7 courses and added the cheese and got a bottle of wine and it came out to around $350 USD a person. Which to me seems like an extremely fair price to pay for such a luxurious and delicious evening. We got to watch the sun set and had private access to the observation deck, the pictures came out beautiful. Don't get me wrong this is certainly a splurge meal, but for the quality of every aspect of the experience it feels like a fair price to ask. I couldn't recommend it more. I would tell any of my friends visiting Paris it is a must-do. I worked hard to earn the money I used to pay for having such a special evening and it was worth every penny. I hope to return at some point in my lifetime but even if I never do the experience, I had left me feeling satisfied.
So you go first for the once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Whisked to the second level to dine overlooking Paris? Amazing. Yes, it's expensive and it's a fixed menu, but it deserves both Michelin stars. Book well in advance AND make sure you're booked and not waitlisted. Unhappy erstwhile diners turned up when we did and found out the unhappy news. All -- ALL -- the staff were thoughtful and amazing.
Wow! Absolutely incredible.
2 Michelin stars well deserved. Delicious food, outstanding service, and the view....Eiffel Tower. Not a cheap place, but an unforgettable experience.
A dinner to remember on our last night in Paris.
Obviously the location can't be beat. The food was next level. The service is second to none. We had around 10 people serving our section. It was like a coordinated dance without missing a step. Every dish was amazing. Our only small complaint was we wished the Veal was a bit more tender. We love a good filet mignon so we expected similar. But the flavors of everything was so good. Each dish was like a piece of art with surprising flavors. We have never had anything quite like this. Felt like we were on Iron Chef. Hopefully we can experience this again someday.
Lunch at Jules Verne was an extraordinary experience that
Lunch at Jules Verne was an extraordinary experience that surpassed all expectations. Perched on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, this iconic restaurant offers not only breathtaking views of Paris but also a culinary journey like no other. It's fun being whisked to the front of the line going up the tower. I have eaten at Michelin restaurants all over the world and this meal is one of my top I've ever experienced. From the moment we were greeted by the attentive staff to the last bite of dessert, every moment was filled with elegance and charm. Each dish was a masterpiece, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The ambiance was equally impressive, with stylish decor and panoramic views of the city. It was the perfect setting for my daughter's birthday. We had a window seat which you can only acquire by booking far in advance. You get private access to the 2nd floor of the ET. When you are finished wandering outside, you get your own private code for the private door to come back down. Sublime. Dining at Jules Verne is not just a meal--it's an unforgettable journey through the flavors and sights of Paris.
The experience at this restaurant and location was nothing
The experience at this restaurant and location was nothing less than exquisite. Yes it is expensive, yes I had to book 4 months out, and yes you will enjoy every second of this dining experience. The only complaint I have is the arrival instructions should be updated with the current security situation regarding the Olympics. Aside from that, I would eat my last meal here. For all the naysayers complaining of the portions, it is a multiple Michelin starred French prex fit menu that will leave you wanting for nothing. After 7 courses, our plans to go out for drinks after were not happening as it was time for bed haha. Let's start with the venue, hello you are on the top viewing platform of the Eiffel Tower with 5 star service. Before you even think you need your wine or water refilled, there is someone pouring it for you. You think you'd like a glass of cognac for dessert, it's there. The plates are served white glove style insync with both severs and they are attentive but not intrusive. We chose the 7 course option, highly recommend, which turned out to be 9 courses with the chefs special and an amuse-bouches. I can't recommend this place enough for an amazing experience. The ambiance is well, breathtaking.
Essentially you are paying for the irreplaceable view and
Essentially you are paying for the irreplaceable view and overall experience of dining here. There really is no other place that can beat that. From there, I think comes the exceptional service, well-choreographed and practiced hospitality from the staff, and finally the food. The food is actually very good, I think its moreso whether you are open to this level of food and how you accept it. It's definitely not something you eat everyday, but that's part of the reason of why you're dining here, isn't it? We went for their a la carte lunch service. The top memorable dishes were the ones that weren't included in the menu (the surprise dishes and treats), the unlimited bread and butter (serious top quality that I still think about everyday), and the crab w/ apple cider soup. The ambience and vibe was perfect as well. Most of the diners did make an effort to dress up, there was a mix of some family, couples, friends, and an overall good variety of people there. Dining here was truly one of the most memorable highlights of our trip to Paris and I don't think I will ever forget the feeling I experienced here--that should say enough.
What to do when the amuse bouche are the best flavors of all?
Surprised by the views, the service and the food. A step up in style since last visit in 1986, but not the food. A culinary travel in shades of taupe, despite bloody red and orange gel, the flavors werenβt there.
Lives up to its rating and reviews.
No need to be on time as the elevator up only holds 4 and nobody is in any kind of rush. Wine with each course is $150 pp. But they do have an extensive wine list.
Michelin Star Restaurant with Obnoxious Customers
My husband and I have dined at Jules Verne on several occasions and our experiences have always been magnificent. Because of our love for this restaurant, we highly recommended that my son and his girlfriend visit during their stay in Paris this week. They had a lunch time reservation (made many months in advance!) and they were excited to be seated at a beautiful table for two in front of the window overlooking Paris. Unfortunately, an EXTREMELY loud family was seated near them. The family was not dressed for this special occasion (per the requirements) nor did they know how to behave in such a beautiful establishment. They were LOUD and OBNOXIUS. Many of the customers surrounding them, requested to be moved, however, my son and his girlfriend decided to stay at their table because of the beautiful view. This was probably a big mistake as the behavior never improved during their entire dining experience. They received many apologies from the Jules Verne staff, however, it really did have a negative impact on their experience. I believe that someone at Jules Verne should have spoken to the LOUD guests and explained to them that they were impacting the experience of others. I mean this is a Michelin Star Restaurant and they need to adhere to the high standards that have been set. Something should have or could have been done to handle this situation with these people as they obviously didn't know how to behave and maybe a glass of champagne offered or dessert offered to my son and his girlfriend would have been a nice touch at the end of such a distressing experience. By the way, they said the food was spectacular!
This was so unexpected.
Mostly locals and not touristy at all. The service was impeccable and the food deserved the Michelin star. Private elevator and exit to the Tour Eiffel . Will go back every time. You must try. Not too expensive.
We were able to eat at Le Jules Verne while in Paris and
We were able to eat at Le Jules Verne while in Paris and the view alone is worth the 5 stars. We reserved this restaurant last minute, so we didn't have the most ideal table to begin with, but as the night went on, we were moved to a table with an even better view of the night time of Paris. The service here is impeccable. Each person we encountered that evening, from the person who took us up to the restaurant in the elevator to those who served us our food, were very professional. Between our whole family, we had either 5 or 7 courses that evening. My son and I ordered the 5 courses and my husband and daughter got the 7 courses. Each dish was different and each of us liked different things that we had. None of the dishes were bad, but, for instance, I don't like certain textures, so I personally didn't like the venison. The best part of this dinner was the fact that we could go out a special door to look outside on the Eiffel tower and not have to worry about the crowds. It was amazing! At the end of our meal, we each got a piece of chocolate with a quote from Jules Verne, the writer who this restaurant is named after. I highly recommend you try this place at least once, especially if you are making a once in a lifetime trip to France. You'll get an amazing view from the Eiffel tower as well as delicious food!

We made reservations for 11/01/23 for the first seating and made sure to be one of the first in line to enter. In doing so we received an amazing window table with stunning views. The service was impeccable. The 7 course meal was the most amazing dining experience. This was not merely food but cuisine on such an elevated level as to be second to none. I've dined in many exquisite restaurants but nothing can compare to the ambience and most memorable meal at the Jules Verne in the Eiffel Tower. * We did not take photos of the food because we didn't want to detract from this amazing dining experience.
Tied for the best meal I've ever had! What a very special
Tied for the best meal I've ever had! What a very special Paris experience and something you must do if you have the time! It's such a treat and unforgettable. As you enter you're actually in a building that is built around the actual Tower and the elevator ride to the restaurant is pretty awesome with a spectacular view of all of Paris waiting at the top for you. The service is an experience in itself! The staff is so friendly and accommodating, making you feel extremely special. The food...out of this world! If you like light and frothy with cream and butter this is your place! The flavors are a symphony and every plate provides a new experience to the senses. My personal favorite was the onion frothy mousse with truffle and the turbot with leek and yuzu.
OMG! Food, service, the views, everything! Once in a
OMG! Food, service, the views, everything! Once in a lifetime experience. We went for 12/31/23 and could've not asked for a better last meal of the year!
It was quite an experience that won't be soon forgotten.
I booked 3 months in advance and was a few days late from the day reservations opened up online for booking. I was only 3 days late and Christmas dinner slots were already completely booked and I only had a handful of time slots to choose from for lunch. I ended up reserving Christmas day lunch at 1:30pm. The cost was $510 euros (approx $565 usd) to confirm a reservation for a party of 2. SERVICE: The service was great. Everyone we encountered were polite and professional. Most of the staff speaks both French and some English, but some only speak French. FOOD: The food was very good, well, everything except the main entree. They offered 2 options for lunch - a 5 course tasting menu or a 7 course tasting menu. I opted for the 5 course menu. Many wines options are also offered for an additional charge but we selected still water, sparkling water, and citrus sodas. We tried: 1. Crab: Flavored with Tarragon, Granny Smith Apple Zephyr (5 out of 5) 2. Scallop: Puffed Buckwheat Galette Dieppoise Sauce and Oscetra Caviar (3 out of 5) 3. Langoustine: Prepared as a Ravioli. Parmesan cream, Thin Beetroot jelly (5 out of 5) 4. Venison & Chicken: Roasted with Cranberries. Braised Cabbage, Poivrade Sauce (both 1 out of 5; unfortunately, the sauce tasted burned, chicken was overcooked, and the venison simply lacked flavor) 5. Chocolate: Warm SoufflΓ©. Cocoa nibs ice cream, Crispy Gavotte (3 out of 5) AMBIANCE: The restaurant has simple elegance and contemporary decor. Nothing flashy. The window views of Paris was nice but has some obstruction due to the nature of the Eiffel Tower structure that is holding it up. FELLOW PATRONS: Our experience was mixed with some friendly co-diners, as well as some first class snobs. Unfortunately, we were seated by a stuffy foreigner couple. They were not french, they spoke a foreign language but were not friendly to us. Overall, if you are interested in trying a Michelin star restaurant while visiting the iconic Eiffel Tower all in one go and are okay with shelling out the cash, this is worth trying at least once in my option.
The food was great, the service was fantastic, the view is
The food was great, the service was fantastic, the view is unparalleled. I see some reviews slamming the food, but it really was delicious. The standouts for me were the scallop, langoustine and the cheese course. The scallop, strangely, kinda looked like a taco, but it was superb. The lobster was also out of this world. The presentation was gorgeous with what I think was a beet gelee on top. The cheese was melted with shaved truffle and warm brioche. I could happily eat it every day of my life. The only plates that didn't impress me were the crab and the chicken. The crab was quite fishy, and it was an odd combination what I seem to remember was Granny Smith apple foam. The chicken was actually very tasty, but I just expect more from a Michelin star tasting menu main course. It felt a bit like we were being cheated. The turbot was a toss up. I don't know what the flavors were, but I really liked them. That said, the flavor was very strong and I can see it being polarizing. If I could do it over, we would've skipped the wine pairing and ordered a nice bottle. They definitely didn't skimp on their pours, but, if you're like me and have a hard time not finishing a good glass of wine paired with a delicious bite, you might walk out a little tipsy...and you might not totally remember what you had for dessert.
Excellent service, amazing and creative presentation of
Excellent service, amazing and creative presentation of dishes. Five coarse meal with wine pairing perfect. They also provide a seven coarse meal with wine pairing which the men enjoyed.. Ambiance elegant, calm and well orchestrated.
We dined at the Jules Verne in September 2004 for my 50th
We dined at the Jules Verne in September 2004 for my 50th birthday with friends, all of us coming from California. The evening was exceptional, so much that I chose to do it again in 2014 for my 60th... not so well. My 70th is coming up and we won't be returning. We were left standing at street level well past our reservation time and we were only taken after what seemed like a private party was taken and their evening well underway. The menu was no longer a selection as before but a set menu with your choice of 5 or 6 courses. We felt we were treated as an afterthought. Not the special evening we had planned for. Paris will always be special but not the Jules Verne.
Once in a lifetime
This was a once in a life time experience for us. My husband organised this dinner for my 60th Birthday. The staff were very friendly, professional and very attentive. The food was very good . The view of Paris from this restaurant is amazing. My husband organised a birthday cake with the restaurant as a suprise at the end of our meal which was lovely. We went to the restaurant understanding it would be expensive but after the event we felt it was just a bit overpriced.
Gorgeous view
Our Adult family of 6 enjoyed Dinner March 1, 2023. The food was excellent it's a set menu 5 or 7 course, we choose the 5 seem like more to us. If you like trying different types of food, then this is a good place to go, a bit expensive at 250.00 a plate. The experiences and the views made it worth it.
In a nutshell, the view here is unbeatable, and the food is
In a nutshell, the view here is unbeatable, and the food is beatable.Because Jules Verne is at the very top of Eiffel Tower, there is a 360 degrees view of the city. Window tables require 90 day advanced reservation, but the view from any table is spectacular. To enter the restaurant, you can bypass the long tourist security line and take a special elevator that not only accesses the summit level of the restaurant, but also the first and second levels. If you are already planning to tour the tower, you can simply do this after lunch or dinner here.Although Jules Verne is a 1-star Michelin star restaurant, the food was not quite up to the standards of other 1-star Michelin star restaurants. Most dishes were good, but there were couple misses (1 star off). For example, the scallops was sliced thinly and molded into a gelee. Why did they do that? Scallop Jell-O had a weird texture. I would rather have a nicely seared whole scallop. Also, the cod I had was not seasoned. The description said it was "simply cooked" - maybe too simply cooked.Come for the view, not for the food.
Plan ahead and reserve super early on, like minimum 1 month
Plan ahead and reserve super early on, like minimum 1 month or more.1. Reservation: absolutely necessary 2. Service: weird and awkward 3. Food: amazing4. View: it's inside the Eiffel Tower, enough said.Great view. 5. Cost: very pricey, full dinner will cost you minimum 350 per person.
An extremely memorable experience and Michelin worthy
An extremely memorable experience and Michelin worthy dishes and service make this place a top place! Loved every second of our lunch service and oh the views of Paris! Ordered the pre fixe lunch menu. Had two different options in the entree, plat and dessert. Entree: choice of scallops and raviolis - we all ordered the scallops (Saint Jacques) and were thinly sliced with a dollop of caviar and fried artichoke, delicious! Plat: choice of la bΕuf ou cod fish - loved the la boeuf! Wonderful sauce and a fried polenta topped with black truffle shavings - cod fish, tenderly cooked with a wonderful cream sauce, loved!! Especially the mashed potatoes that it comes with! Dessert - poached pear, very interesting! Not very sweet but delicious and delicate - hazelnut ice cream with a little tart Overall, wonderful views, excellent service and delicious food! Make sure to make reservations in advance! They will ask you to pay in advance!
This was truly an exquisite dinner.
The view of the city is amazing. The nine course meal was fabulous and the service wonderful. Reservations and payment, except for liquor, must be made and paid in advance. It was well worth the effort and money.

Visiting Paris for the 3rd time and we finally had the chance to come here. I celebrated my birthday with my sister and we had the 3 course lunch meal. You have a private entrance, they take you up and to your table. Place was gorgeous and luxurious. Service was excellent. Food was a bit toooo small but it was good. It was an amazing experience.
Absolutely exquisite.
If you have the opportunity to dine here, do. It is the most amazing experience you will ever experience in your life.
Le Jules Verne.
..... The name says it all! When we were planning our trip to Europe I joked, let's start our trip with dinner on our anniversary here... Well 5 months before we called American Express Platinum and asked them to schedule the dinner.. To which they said it was impossible as we had to call and there were a few hoops to jump through.... So, while on a trip to Costa Rica, figuring out the time difference, at 5 a.m. California time, we called and got the reservation for our anniversary!.. All that said, it was an amazing night!.. Perfectly clear, summer evening..... our table at the window and the food started to arrive... There are so many waiters and wine people, there is nothing you could ever want...The food was amazing.... A little fancier than we are used to... It was so good. The wine was so perfect with each course...We would definitely go back and would absolutely recommend it.
Absolutely phenomenal food and spectacular service! Top
Absolutely phenomenal food and spectacular service! Top notch from ambiance, to decor, to service, and ultimately the dishes! It's presentation was fabulous and each dishes brought to us was different. Hats off to the chef and team! Definitely would come back over and over!

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Jules Verne Paris at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Jules Verne Paris page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process

* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FluffyStar64, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* FluffyStar64 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FluffyStar64 for any questions Peter may have as FluffyStar64 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FluffyStar64 now uses their connections at Jules Verne Paris to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FluffyStar64 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FluffyStar64 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FluffyStar64's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
