Le Grand Vefour is exactly what you picture when you think
Le Grand Vefour is exactly what you picture when you think of a "well-done" French restaurant experience. A beautiful interior Friendly staff who will engage with you as much or as little as you wish (we quizzed ours about the interior) good wine selection wonderful selection of dishes, but with a limited scope to keep you focused on traditional dishes, done very well A valet service that not only meets you when you pull up, but is waiting for you when you leave! (they must have some hand signals to let them know) Will definitely be back soon.
Be the first to ReplyThe worst meal I've had in my many trips to Europe.
Our waiter was nice but spoke no English. My salad was forgotten and when I asked for it it came with a dressing of vinegar topped with a heavy dusting of salt. I asked they remove it as I was done and to not bring me another though it came. The foie gras was dry and surrounded by tepid pickles and a strange mush of what I think might have been seaweed. My main of flavorless pork cheeks looked like dog food. A slop of brown on a plate. The apricot dessert was outstanding. The waiter was thoughtful but he kept kicking my chair as he moved. Basically unqualified. The staff was polite but with so few tables the timing was not smooth. 550 e for three. My companions were of a like mind. I have been in the restaurant business all my life. I'm an expert. Skip this place.

This restaurant is famous because it is old and for its interior decoration. Tables are packed tightly.My wife ordered cod for her entree and I ordered the flank steak. Both disappointed. The cod was overcooked and rubbery; the flank steak stringy.Service is attentive and kind.Not a repeat experience. Many alternatives in Paris.

What a place and what an evening! We've travelled lots in our life. In various continents in countless countries. Seen a whole lot of wonderful France as well.And this here was one of the very very best dining experiences in our lifes.Had a reservation (highly recommended) and were taken care of in the best ways from the moment we've stepped through the door. Lots of staff will take care of you. Your coats, your drinks, your wine, to serve and to clean the table. To help you with the menu. Staff was excellent - all of them. Professional from beginning to end.The setting is breathtaking. It's the oldest restaurant in Paris. Napoleon dined here before.It's an amazing setting. And we got a wonderful table for two to enjoy the night.The menu has interesting items. There were some specials as well and a lower priced fixed 3-court menu, but we didn't go for that.Got served some very nice bread with olive oil. A bottle of mineral water with that.For starters we ordered a portion of Caviar and Foie Gras (Canard) Terrine. Two glasses of Chablis with that.Caviar was wonderful. Not too fishy, not too salty. Perfect balance of flavours. 20g portion, which was a nice size for one person.The Foie was equally great. Possibly the best one I've ever had ... and I've had many!For the main we chose one of the Chef's Specials. The beef filet with truffle sauce, mashed potatoes and spinach.The meat was perfect and perfectly cooked by order. Soft, tender, meaty. Amazing. And the truffle sauce was divine. And there was a LOT of truffle sauce - they certainly didn't hold back there. Spinach was great too. High quality. Even the mashed potatoes were amazing. Everything just had such a high standard.We were pretty full after that. But ordered a cheese platter to share. A nice selection of soft and hard french cheeses. Loved it.For the main we ordered a bottle of red wine. "Vosne-Romanée" - Les Barreaux from 2019. A Burgundy. And what a Burgundy. Smooth, silky, rich. With balanced tannins. 150 Euros for that....and worth every single cent. It's been a while since we've tasted wine this great.A perfect evening. Staff, food, setting. Everything top-class (and more). You pay a bit more here, yes (we were aware of that). But you really get quality for the price here. Drinks, food, staff. We've spent about 460 Euros this evening. And really felt it was worth it. I don't mind spending that much once in a while when we get this much in return.A night we won't forget. Highly recommended!

Dinner last night, what a disappointment!! We had a party of four, two meals were delivered late and our wine glasses were empty most of the time. Please leave the wine on the table and I'm happy to pour it myself. The server was rude, she walked away halfway through taking our order. The food was flavorless. One bright spot was the dessert.
Be the first to ReplyWhile beautiful, and a classic in terms of reputation, only
While beautiful, and a classic in terms of reputation, only the food and décor live up to the reputation. The service is a disaster. Communication with the restaurant is nearly impossible on-line, as we waited weeks for a reply that never came. After updating the reservation to increase our guest count long ago, upon arrival we were told it was for two instead of three and we were told to wait outside. After a bit, they came out and said it was a mistake and seated us. The lobster was flawless which made up for the awkward start. However, even after the delay at the beginning, they came by at 9:15 saying they needed the table for the next service, essentially sending us out. Never in France have I been told it's time for you to leave! I guess if you choose to go, get the second seating unless they throw you out at 11:15 too. But a friend said of the country that invented Champagne, foie gras and the art of the table, "do you really expect customer service too?" Well at these prices I do, and we were let down.
Be the first to ReplyWe came here mostly out of curiosity after it was mentioned
We came here mostly out of curiosity after it was mentioned in series Emily in Paris but also for its long standing history! 200 yrs of serving food!The main dining room is very opulent so you'll also want to dress the part to fit in but smart casual is accepted and I saw a few men in shorts but they sat elsewhere. We are greeted by friendly and welcoming staff who even pulled out the table for us to sit down. That's a first! I decided to go with the two course menu of the week which was duck breast served with poached turnips. Mashed turnip and slices of sir dried duck! My fish was delicious and the duck was super tender. Hubby ordered a la carte the sirloin steak with mashed potatoes and bok choy grilled. It was very tasty but I think it was flank steak and not actually sirloin. It was still tender, not like my duck but also not so stiff your jaw hurts after a few bites!We also shared a fois gras that came with toast and an assortment pickled vegetables which were a nice complement to the very rich fois gras.For dessert I had the crème brûlée which came with a bite of sorbet and a piece of poached rhubarb. Again balanced flavours and an interesting take on a classic.Keep in mind the offer for a cheese plOverall I would recommend it if you're looking for modern French cuisine for a great price in a historical restaurant. Bon apetit!

Another one of those expensive French restaurants in a prime location that has seen better days. Absolutely stunning interior, located at the corner of the Palais Royal garden. Unfortunately, and to our regret, the food was just good, instead of outstanding, as it should be for that price. A good foie gras with a very average little side of pickled vegetables, nothing stunning, nothing surprising, nothing justifying the price tag twice as high as in decent other restaurants in Paris. A bavette d'aloyau (flank steak) that neither convinced due to texture, quality or preparation with decent mashed potatoes, caramelised onions and endives. A presentable desert with pineapple and passion fruit. The wine was perfectly forgettable (at 26 Euros a glass!). We were very surprised that the service was neglectful with a hint of snootiness. If anything, we would have expected vastly better in such a setting and in a place that has that history and those price tags. On the table and, in addition to the menu, the chef recommends his signature dishes wich all almost touch 100 Euros per plate. Our choices were vastly more reasonable but, as described, also a lot more common fare. There are literally hundreds of restaurants in Paris where you can eat better and for less. If you want to spend this much, there are still lots of places where you can do this and receive much better food served with more grace and attention. Regrettably, we cannot recommend this restaurant.

Lovely park spot !! Meander here & sip rose through your Parisian afternoon. Try a sorbet !
Be the first to ReplyThe grandness of Le Grand Vefour is no longer apparent.
Based on the reviews I read, I was really excited to dine here and was ready to drop a lot of cash on this meal. However, Guy Martin has decided to turn in his 2 Michelin stars in favor of an upscale brasserie. It's a gamble I don't think is going to pay off in the long run for this historic restaurant. Sure, it is always nice to spend hundreds of dollars less on a meal, but you can certainly tell you are spending so much less. The look and feel of the restaurant is nice though I only got to experience that during the second half of my dining experience. Although we had reservations, the wife and I were sat completely alone outside facing a low grade movie theater. We didn't say anything at first, but as time passed and no one else was sitting in our area, we began to wonder if we smelled bad or if this was the French being rude to Americans? We weren't sure. So a few minutes before our main course arrived, I asked why we were the only ones sitting in this whole area and they promptly told us they could move us in the restaurant, and sat us in their upper room. Why didn't we get seated there in the first place?Our wine was perfectly matched and starting course was delicious. I had the steak for my main course. I've had much better steak in pretty much every restaurant I've been to before. It was really nothing special and a huge disappointment. My dessert was beautifully presented and so interesting with it's various texture combinations that were both surprising and delicious. I would certainly recommend the dessert. Overall, I would not come back here considering all the other options in Paris but was glad I had the experience.
Be the first to ReplyThis was the most magical experience of my life.
There aren't words to describe the excellence of the food and the superior service that I experienced. The prix fix 10 course was sublime and I had to do breathing exercises to finish all the courses. This will be the penultimate meal of my life for myself, my mother and my sister!
Be the first to ReplyWow. Best meal and dining experience of my life.When you
Wow. Best meal and dining experience of my life.When you visit Paris, if you like good food, make sure a high-end Parisian dining experience is on your list of things to do. Food and service are a valued event in this city, Lunch is more affordable. And this place was perfect. Two Michelin stars now ( three stars were at least 4 times more expensive for lunch) and $115 per was a steal.This is an old, historic, and elegant restaurant with a top-rated chef. (Also open on Monday which was a true find,) This prix fixe menu was three courses but by courses I mean you order one plate and get about 3, lol. Plus an astounding cheese cart course. AND two amuse bouche tastings. You will be more than satisfied with your experience.Exquisite food and presentation and service. Every single item served was eye-rollingly delicious and beautiful - from fish to duck to dessert. And desert was like a fireworks finale - you get your menu choice,THEN you get a cake serving, THEN you get a candy course - lol - it was fantastic - and you could tell they enjoyed serving it. By the end of the meal the entire seating in the dining room was talking about it.There were locals as well as tourists as patrons, locals are always a good sign. It seemed several of them were celebrating some event like a birthday and wanted special place so they came here.Do it. You will not regret it and it will be one of the most memorable experiences of your trip.
Be the first to ReplyAn incredible gastronomical experience setting you back in
An incredible gastronomical experience setting you back in time ... so much history within these walls, and a splendid lunch by Guy Martin.Although one could deem this meal"classic" in terms of cuisine style, execution is perfect and lots of originality is out in the assemblage of flavors.At luch, the 4-course menu is more of a 10-plate tasting experience. Everything was perfect. There are three options for appetizer and main. We tried two of the three and I do not think you can go wrong. The sommelier had interesting wines by the class that we enjoyed a lot. Great interaction with him as well as all the staff. The cheese cart is a poem. The desserts are incredible ... with bits of macaroons, chocolates, nougats, for your coffee.I was really impressed. You do feel like royalty eating here, and the efforts the team and chef put in your lunch is well worth the €115. I am certain I will come back for a wonderful experience you will not get anywhere else.
Be the first to ReplyChef guy Martin is an absolute genius.
From flavors to quality, dish after dish he surprises you with an incredible array of cuisine. Go for lunch and enjoy an amazing 2.5 hours that will be the highlight of your trip. Not only is the food the best meal we had in Paris but the restaurant itself has so much history as it had regulars such as Napoleon Bonaparte and Victor Hugo. From the special Japanese twist on French cuisine, the restaurant will go from 2 to 3 michelin stars very soon at this rate. For only 115 euros each you can enjoy a 3 course lunch menu with about 10 plates in total. Chef Guy Martin is also very sweet and sent us the signature truffle foie gras ravioli in addition to our meal! My favorite was the side dish of the truffle mash potatoes, a recipe of his grandmother that's just as delicious as it looks. The pear dessert and array of plates was as spectacular as anyone could imagine. I will be a regular here every time I visit Paris. There was more to the meal but we couldn't even snap pics of the cake and special wrapped toffees they brought at the end.
Be the first to ReplyThis was a gastronomical experience! Elegant and beautiful
This was a gastronomical experience! Elegant and beautiful setting. They had a beautiful multi course meal for lunch which left us super full. Like literally couldn't move after eating. The desserts were amazing. The cheese plate was so diverse. I got Pearly cod and it was pretty good. Veal rump was super tender and flavorful as well. The dessert was so much. Extra macaron and marshmallows and chocolates galore.

Best dining experience ever with quality of cousins and excellent service! The historical background of this restaurant also makes unique atmosphere.
Be the first to ReplyA must-visit in Paris.
An experience for all seven of your senses. It feels like you've stepped back in time, the decor reminded me of Versailles but not quite that over-the-top. The service is friendly, impeccable, fun and funny, but also very proper. I thought one didn't know how to smile but then he made a joke when we asked a question about one of the dishes. They know how to serve food, particularly cheese, and that course seemed like an art in it of itself. I joked "find someone who looks at you like our server looks at cheese." Dress up just a tad! A woman we saw eating was wearing a dress that I would've worn to Prom or something similar. She had her boyfriend take so many pictures of her eating, drinking, and then many of her standing on the staircase and beneath the chandelier. There were other restaurant guests who seemed less like tourists celebrating an occasion and more like business people. Who knows? Le Grand Verfour is steeped in history and is in a great location near the Louvre. I'd recommend coming for lunch. They said our set meals were 4-courses but there were so many "the chef would like to give you this" dishes that it seemed like 10 courses! Everything was just so good. Some dishes were unique, but everything was complex. There was a creamy dessert that combined black cherry, meringue, and radish. The fois gras was the best I had in Paris--very creamy but not overwhelming. I heard the duck truffle was a chef specialty, and I liked my duckling filet. You will need only one visit here to provide you with your food for a day and a half!
Be the first to ReplyLe Grand Vefour is steeped in history and full of old world
Le Grand Vefour is steeped in history and full of old world charm, but the dining room is not as elegant, comfortable, and tastefully decorated as some of the other famous restaurants in Paris. However, the food is excellent with service to match, as one would expect. What stands out most though are the incredibly beautiful and creative presentations of the courses. Each dish was truly a delight to behold.
