La Tour d'Argent Reviews

This was simply the best dining experience I have ever had. The attention to detail and customer service was amazing and the food and setting is just outstanding. Thank you for making a special occasion perfect.

Good menu, and very nice setting! Nevertheless beware of the sommeliers (They were two present) whose level is below average: They do not even know how to recognize a corked wine and have no knowledge in old wines.
I come to this place for another reason than the duck: it is the only table in Paris which offers old vintage wines at reasonable prices!
My second bottle, a bordeaux 1981 following the 1976 montrachet chassagne was unfortunately corked! and they refused to change it ... it's incredible for a table that claims such a prestigious position.
(I am a professional in Bordeaux wine, a wine merchant family since 1910)
Otherwise the dishes were excellent, it was my third visit and I have never been disappointed with the dishes.
Be careful with a little thing anyway for those who want to choose knowing prices: there is no indication of price on the card or on the three menus offered! ...
The prices are only indicated on the wall at the entrance to the 1st floor on the right when entering.

Outstanding wine card
Dishes to remember
Unique view

Duck !! Service and setting !! Breathtaking view of Notre Dame !! Expensive of course but ... !! Pretty good! 1 Michelin star

Visit of the shop, local products of quality and wines and champagne of very good behavior. Staff caring. To visit urgently. As for the restaurant, the best is yet to come.

Excellent menu.
Efficient and discreet service.

It is a real institution where the meal is only one element of the culinary experience. The service and finally the wines are perhaps also or even more dominant factors of the evening.

Exceptional dishes and prices accordingly. Numerous staff, available and pleasant. You have to go there once in your life. Exceptional view of the Seine.

A historic must. A breathtaking view and a cuisine from a great starred chef.

Wonderful architecture, excellent service, a unique view of Paris and a very refined place, unique details in the decoration, including historical objects. A place like few. With a unique cellar and with history.

Incredible service and attention to detail. Meal was absolutely amazing. View is spectacular. Finally I made the reservation 3 months in advance and noted it was to celebrate my wife's 60th birthday. They remembered and brought us a discrete extra dessert treat.

Beautiful surroundings, superb views, perfect service and cuisine that deserves more than just one Michelin star. Quite up to its reputation

Excellent welcome .... excellent menu .... attentive staff a very professional manager and a top chef .... what more could you ask for! Everything comes together to have a good time at the Tour d'Argent ... a unique moment with a thousand seasonal flavors

Each dish is a fabulous experience with a deep message. We come out grown up.

I love this restaurant for several reasons. It's old school. The patrons dress so nicely. It's a romantic place with a great view. Food is great. And while I like Italian red wine over French red, I've never seen such a deep French wine list.

A fine dining restaurant with a beautiful view and a lovely atmosphere. Attention to detail and amazing service from the waiters. Picture of the wine list posted. Its a landmark and one of the oldest restaurants in Paris but they only had a french menu so the waiter translated and it made it a bit tough to order and you didnt really know what you were getting until it came.

Excellent, always a pleasure to come to this magical place, filled with emotion, where time stands still during mealtime.
The new Chef Yannick Franques, gives a revival to the menu, continuing the history of this menu. Always with the presence of Mr. Terrail through his grandson who visits the tables to greet the guests.

Apart from the butler and sommelier the waiters are incompetent the kitchen is not up to the bill only the frame and especially the cellar are worth the detour

I have been here multiple times and yet never reviewed it. Let's correct this travesty now!

This is an excellent restaurant! What else does one need to know?

The service is impeccable! They great you downstairs and make you comfortable (with champagne of course!) The the service when you go upstairs gets no reproach from me. My wife was very happy with the attention, their quickness to answer your requests and their knowledge of what you might want to eat that night. Though my father and I have always chosen to eat the "Caneton Presse."

The menu is mostly incredible dishes! My mother and wife has always gone with the a la carte. But my father and I share their signature dish. If you go there, you must have two people eat that dish. And you also have a card with the number of your caneton printed on it. I still have mine stashed in my desk right now.

The wine list is a wine lovers' dream! Splurge a bit and enhance your night further! Their sommelier has always advised me to the greatest wine to pair with the various dishes!

The view from the restaurant is incredible. And it is very much fun to watch the bateau-mouche pass by on the Seine!

The only drawback: as you can guess, it's the price. A good evening for two people can go up to 2000 euros. But that is just me. Just tell your server and he/she will recommend what would fit you best. Especially when it involves wine!

Recommended!!!

Good reception, professional and respect and above all delicious

You should make a reservation when you go. I go there at dusk. I like the atmosphere of Kioicho in Japan (I'm sorry that there is a photo of a celebrity who visited the store in Paris !!). I think the food and staff service are top notch.

+ historic and magical setting
- staff blocks in the 80s, unable to get out an understandable sentence in English
- Merlot is over 100, dry and tasteless
- ordinary bread
- sommelier blase and without enthusiasm

Very disappointing

Amuse Bush had a taste for me. (I'm new to Michelin) I ate 1 fish and 1 duck. Please try the fish dishes. My taste is .. Star .. Duck restaurant.

Mythical place. Nothing to say from start to finish. Refinement and very good food.

Excellent meal very good time
Discreet and elegant service
To recommend

Very good restaurant that has modernized the classics with subtlety. Sommelier, outstanding butler of professionalism. Impeccable.

Superb house from 1582 and its famous duck recipe with blood and pike quenelles

To recommend
Everything is perfect

Incredible view of the island of the city, meals at the top and good team to listen.

Superb establishment! Picky service and care with a wine list simply exceptional! The view of the Seine adds a unique touch to the meal

an experience that I will remember all my life. all extraordinary !!!!!

Sincerely disappointed, well received until arrival in the room.
Difficulty getting a smile from a waiter.
A report quality price frankly more than disappointing, and the last straw, to be taken again by the director of the room for having made him notice that the toilet tissue box is exhausted. To be treated as dishonest in front of my guests by the same room manager because I can be heard criticizing the corner of my ear service, unheard of for me in a starred restaurant. I leave you 2 star rating for the shape and your superb wine list. Crowned heads you may be better received, but as a standard Human I am unlikely to represent myself at this establishment. Good luck keeping your star.

Very beautiful table in an absolutely magnificent setting!
The view is as beautiful as the plates.
The service is delicate and discreet.
We had a great lunch.
Everything was perfect!

Idyllic service discreet and smiling. The dishes are of quality and fresh. Presentation of dishes worthy of the great restoration with a wine accompaniment to each recipe.

Delicious food, but without much surprise. On the other hand, the sommelier is someone great and the visit in the historic cellars is a moment that we will remember for a long time.

Different taste than other countries and other meals is too delicious that the photo

Perfection in every detail starting with the presentation of your wine selection: presentation, protocol in opening, filtering & transferring to a vessel. Followed by each course, cooked exactly as ordered & accompanied with the perfect sauce for the dish. Dinning perfection

Excellence embodied! You will find in this restaurant, in the heart of Paris, the wealth of French gastronomy made to perfection accompanied by a discreet service and quality!

A setting worthy of its reputation! It is a journey through our French gastronomy. What happiness

Great!
Australian guests who came to celebrate their 50th anniversary have reserved a table at the Tour d'Argent to close their one-month trip to France.
A week to go home, Jeffrey is hospitalized in Libourne for serious illness.
The Tour d'Argent refuses to reimburse the two menus already settled.
Long live French hospitality.

Prestigious restaurant with superb surroundings and original views especially at night.
Staff in plethoric room but little motivated.
The cuisine is original, the wines are endless but overpriced. Consequence .... even if this type of institution has heavy loads it is necessary that the report quality price is justified.
To date this is not the case .....
I hope the new leader will ensure that this is corrected and that we go out saying "the price is worth it"
We will come back to try a 3rd time!

Well, I'm not going back to *this* place.

I'm not going to get the best meal of my life again, and I'm not going to do it on another beautiful evening. I'm certainly not going to have impeccable service, with everything in perfect place. There definitely won't be the chance to let the chef choose the meal again, allowing each dish to work in harmony with its predecessor. I'm not going to have the opportunity to let an expert sommelier recommend the perfect wines from a cellar of half a million bottles, and then find that those two carefully chosen bottles are excellent accompaniments for every course. I definitely won't get fantastic dishes at every turn that tease my palate with contrasting sights, textures, flavors, and aromas.

We retain this place the beautiful setting, the very nice view, the very good reception, but as for the menu around the duck not much ...
A place to discover for a special occasion.

I think the emblem restaurant of Paris, its service is perfect. The food for exquisite palates. The wonderful wines. I will always return to Paris.

Wonderful place that evokes memories of a France of other times ..

Exceptional service
Amazing views
Succulent meal

We had an exceptional experience at the Tour d'Argent one Saturday evening. The view was perfect we were seated by the window and everything we ordered was delicious. They have one of the most impressive wine cellars in the world. The wine list was literally the size of an encyclopaedia. The sommelier knew it by heart and recommended the perfect pairings, which were not necessarily the most expensive bottles on the list. Tour d'Argent is obviously very, very pricey, but it's a once in a lifetime experience, best shared with amazing company to complement the setting, the service and the food.

An incredible experience: the welcome, the view, the quality of the dishes and wines offered, everything was perfect!

My first time was in 1998, today I returned, it's still amazing! At all levels! Framework, service, products, know-how. It's really classy. The must!

Spectacular view! Room aging despite the renovation (horrible ceiling). Tariffs charged too high for what was offered. Pleasant and responsive service (watch out for old-fashioned outfits ...).

We went for lunch at the finest French restaurant famous for duck dishes.
I requested JCB Plaza Lounge Paris for reservations two days before the scheduled date, but I was able to make a reservation safely because it was lunch. In advance information such as guide books, there was a dress code, but since I suddenly decided to visit, I did not bring a jacket jacket from Japan. On the day, I went to Y-shirts with slacks and leather shoes with anxiety, but nothing was said and there was no problem. The clothes at lunch seemed not to be so nervous. I went to the seat and looked at the menu, but in French it was a dick, so when I told me I wanted to eat duck food in English, I chose the duck lunch course. He was unfamiliar with luxury stores and was nervous at first, but he was very kind and polite when he told him he did n t know what he did n t understand. The food was really good and I could order some wines in a glass so I enjoyed it. I forgot the exact price, but I think the lunch course was about 70 euros. A glass of wine was around 15-30 euros.
And there is a wine shop with the same name as the restaurant across the road from the restaurant entrance. The glass door at the entrance is an electric lock, so you can open it by looking into the store and knocking. An elderly gentleman with a very gentle smile and a nice smile is available, but he is very kind and will speak English. The restaurant sells wine selected by the restaurant, and there are many wines labeled with the name of Tour d'Argent. The price here was very reasonable and I felt it was around 15-30 euros. If you buy the same or equivalent wine in Japan, it will be about 3 times the price. If you buy here, you can put as much wine into the original paper box and put it in a fine handbag. I think that it is the best place to buy as a souvenir.

Beautiful view, beautiful cellar, mythical place to do if you have the opportunity. The dishes are sublimated by the place and the view, and also thanks to the wine list.

A unique experience., Superb ++++
More than perfect food, impeccable service, what to say we will return ... thank you

I knew that I d be impressed by the wine list (the largest in France) but the food was firing on all cylinders as well. The wine list has some real values to be found in some older vintages. We drank a white burgundy for that was listed at half what it s listed for at retail. Go for lunch and request a table by the window for a killer view of Notre Dame.

Absolutely superb. The Duck is fantastic and the staff are the friendliest in Paris. Highly recommended.

Exceptional experience. Refined atmosphere and decor. A true culinary journey. Congratulations to the sommelier for his choices.

Wonderful meal a wonder a dream the magic place and the discreet staff but very attentive to the customer

Always beautiful setting, great time, it's always a pleasure to come.

Anniversary dinner in this classic of Paris, a dream place with breathtaking views of the Seine River and the Notra Dame Cathedral, we really liked the magnificent attention and the magnificent food. I recommend the whim of dining in this place (be careful, the price is not cheap)

An emblematic establishment of French gastronomy, its history is as incredible as the dishes served there

We had an unforgettable time in this beautiful place the dinner was perfect I recommend the duck filet of Challans roasted with spices.

It was really nice experience here. The starter was ok for me but the main dishes and dessert was really really good. The staff are kind

The setting and the food are perfect as well as the service
I recommend

I was younger, I lived in Muette with a husband and a daughter. Going to the Tour d 'Argent was magnificent, all smiling, discreet, full of attention, cared for down to the smallest detail. Soft lights, very selected flowers and the cornflower in the eyelet of the very elegant patron. Exceptional food. Delicious dessert wine and you went out light anyway. !

Good but overrated. I expected better. The setting and simpa but the service bof blah and good food but no more.

Much too expensive for the gastronomic offer. Rest the frame, superb

Very pleasant lunch thanks to the welcome, the meal and the place. Culinary surprises that delighted my taste buds! See you soon !
