I enjoyed it very much. The welcome is warm and explanations clear. Then, at the beginning of the meal, there is a feeling of confinement, of suffocation that disappears quickly enough to make room for discovery. The exchange with the table neighbors is very interesting. Very friendly the concept is great.

What to say? Simply great, exotic, bluffing and delicious. A caring staff, and sensations totally unknown. It turns out to be overwhelming to find out what our blind and visually impaired friends are experiencing. A special thanks to Yaya who accompanied us in this taste discovery. Congratulations.

The concept is truly incredible and surprising. But in the plate it lacks tone and relief
Top staff and service.
To test I think but do not expect too much from the food at the risk of being disappointed

A unique experience!!!! To live at least once in your life (if you are not afraid of the dark of course).
The team is super pleasant, kind, attentive.
Special dedication to Mohand our host for this evening.
The dishes are well thought out and refined ...
Go there as a group or as a couple to pay attention to your other senses ... and learn to appreciate things differently.

Fantastic experience !!! It was a wonderful dinner and an experience you will not forget for a long time. When one of the most important meaning is "robbed", one feels very awkward. You puzzle out what you eat in order to find out in hindsight that it was not like that, but you could have sworn it was. The other senses, especially the sense of smell, are perceived more intensively for a short time.
The food was very good, the service more than sympathetic and entertaining.
If every one can experience such an experience, its value is its value.

The concept of this restaurant is to make customers eat in total darkness and try to make them guess what they eat.
Clients are accompanied, installed and served by blind or blind servers. The food is very good, the atmosphere is very friendly, the staff care.
Several formulas are proposed ranging from simple glass to the formula with meals and SPA.
I highly recommend this establishment located in the heart of Paris, Center Georges Pompidou district.

I wanted to surprise my wife for our 10 years of marriage, we were not disappointed. Very good atmosphere, perfectly cooked dishes, Yamen our blind guide was adorable, everything was together in addition to live an unusual experience.
Go there with your eyes open (because closed it is useless)!

Are you afraid of the dark? This restaurant will reconcile you with your phobia ...
The concept may seem strange ... I felt anxious before entering (especially since it was a surprise I had not been warned that I would be in the dark !! And I'm afraid of the dark - yes yes ), but the waiters put you at ease right away, and there the magic begins ... Your brain disconnects the sight and concentrates in your mouth ..... We rediscover the touch and the taste ..
to do !!

The principle is simple: you eat in the darkest total.
And the service is provided by blind waiters / waitresses who serve you as "guide" during all the meal (with explanation of how to use the water, how to eat etc.)

Any object that can create light is forbidden in the room (laptop, camera, lighter ...).

It's a very special experience. We lose all its bearings, impossible to get an idea of the size of the room, the number of guests etc ...

Well, we find ourselves talking loudly (we do not know where the people are) to try to touch the person we want to talk to etc ...

And discovery of the day: tap a spoon on a meringue made of light sparks: D

Small advice: go for the surprise menu hstoire to play to guess what you eat (In this case you are asked at the beginning of the meal if you have allergies history not to kill you)

An original concept to change the habits of one-on-one dining. If we lose meaning, we rediscover others. I liked the atmosphere that emerges from it. We shared a very pleasant moment with our neighbors. (If you go there for a romantic dinner, forgotten ) because the tables are tight so forced to share. Our visually impaired waitress, Fazia, was of great kindness and humor. We are really in total darkness so even if at first it is scary and we feel uncomfortable we get used to it very quickly! It was good and funny to guess together what we eat. We put our fingers there at the end of each plate, but nobody sees us . A small flat, I would have liked to be even more surprised by the tastes. To rediscover more flavors. I found that we guessed easily and that it lacked a little originality on the plate. Otherwise it is to be done! A moment at the top. The dishes change every 3 months. Nice experience. Thank you fazia.

An excellent and unique experience. The servers are very nice and helpful. The concept of eating in the dark really gives food new meaning and taste. The only negative point in my opinion is the fact that all the tables are collective and therefore quite noisy. Otherwise I recommend that you test !! :)

the experience is very interesting and the waiters are adorable (the visually impaired inside - because the waiters at the entrance were awful). However big disappointment: a glass of champagne spilled on my dress by my neighbor, then a glass of red spilled by my neighbor on the right. No apologies from my (unknown) neighbors or the restaurant, no commercial gesture. In addition, the menu "vegan" is nice but not really good. You cannot see the photos of the vegan menu, only those of the "normal" menu are available. Besides, the photos of the "normal" menu did not conform to the dishes served and this was announced to us by chance by one of the waiters who had noticed the error. Too expensive for what it is (130 euros for two - for the same price, we can make ourselves a very large restaurant with friendly staff).

We went there no later than yesterday! Thank you for the original experience, the perfect service (thank you Yaya) and the atmosphere at the table which was nice (hello to the couple from Perpignan)!

But beware of some things:

We took the 3 course 3 drink formula at 68 . At this price, we expect haute cuisine and yet, in my opinion, there is a failure on the flavors of the starter (shared by other people at the table). The dish and the dessert seduced us (the quantities do not correspond to gastronomic, we have some on the plate here!). In my opinion, it would be better to remove the glass accompanying the dessert in order to lower the price of the set. A suggestion of coffee would have been welcome at the table. Also be careful that the atmosphere does not turn too much into a "canteen". The odors of food were very present in the room and by going out on the clothes, the room could benefit from being a little better ventilated? Elements that make you come only once when you would like to repeat the experience more often!

The guide "DEMBA" was lovely but I do not recommend it at all! very bad experience. Food and wine? Well, I just made a food poisoning.
My partner had a stomach ache all night.

Disappointment .... I would even say a SCANDALE!

An incredible experience. I always wanted to test it and it's done. At first, I felt really bad, a little anxious. Being in complete darkness, no longer using the view, is very confusing. Thereafter, our body eventually gets used to it and we work on our other senses (touch, hearing, and taste). It's up to you to guess what you eat.
The experience is also very user-friendly. The service was great. The impeccable welcome. The meal was very good. There is just the dessert where I was a little disappointed (not enough flavor I think).
An experience that I highly recommend.

Very confusing and interesting experience. The blind or partially sighted servers are professional and friendly. On the other hand, the meal is barely edible, there were 3 of us and we all had intestinal problems afterwards. The concept could be great, if the management didn't give a damn about the world by cheating on ingredients and quality. Too bad, we feel cheated and it ruins the experience

A scam ! nice staff, but dish deplorable. Cold meat and overcooked, with broccoli water and semolina, worthy of a canteen dish. we expect something else for a gourmet dish at 40 . Just because you eat in the dark does not mean you can not tell the difference! Room that smells musty to spoil the senses. large table of 15 people, we suffer unfortunately the discussions of neighbors, in short for a gourmet restaurant a shame, basically go your way

In view of the concept, the experience, the kindness and the quality of the service, but also the delicious dishes tasted, this restaurant is worth the detour !!!!. The tasting menu is a very good value for money / experience.
We highly recommend this restaurant!

A unique experience ! To do absolutely at least once. The welcome is pleasant and the staff really warm and attentive.
The dishes are of very good quality and totally suitable for such an experience. The awakening of taste is pushed to the maximum and that of touch essential. We are even surprised not to recognize what we ate until the discovery after meal.
Only downsides the room, from experience, is super noisy and the proximity of neighboring tables loses conviviality. Reservation well in advance essential.

We were a group of 10, all liked. For my part, I enjoyed this original experience, made safe thanks to the reception, organization and support of the guide servers. I also enjoyed the menu, which changes every two months. Faced with those who find the price of the excessive meal, I propose to consider that this award is that of this exceptional experience and not a simple meal.

Unforgettable experience! It is to be done at least once, to apprehend a complete meal during which we will execute everything by touch, since the eyes remain in the cloakroom with the laptop ...
Obliged to use the other senses! We open up to everything around us: no choice since we are there to eat ... But in the most total darkness!
I say no more ...
Go for it

Dare to go through the door of this unlikely place. You will be surprised at what you will eat and drink. In addition the atmosphere brings you to talk with your neighbors and his to meet some very nice people. Thanks to Radha for his service and patience.

After an uninviting welcome (we had to do the forcing for the person to move and find our reservation) the meal was very nice with an attentive guide / waiter. Being in total darkness is confusing (no light filters even when people are entering or leaving), we find it difficult to look for the components of the dish or drink as well as their food on the plate.
A good experience in the end.

Not far from the Pompidou Center if you want to try a very original experience, eat fine cuisine in total darkness. A sensory and original step to try and you will be pleasantly surprised. Served by extremely friendly blind people.

Funny concept but don't come to eat. At more than 80 the menu is extremely bland and it is the bad surprise.
It's self ++
If they could use the products from their windows for food it would be great. Entrance with a tasteless gazpacho, followed by a salmon steak without spices with bland rice and an Auvergne caviar that only had the name, finally a sea of watermelons in soy cream pushed by a livid pudding and a little low-end champagne, it was a shame.
The concept was nice but make a bite-size menu, verrines, tasting, made with fine products, not this self food.

Avoid urgently !!!

Avoid urgently !!!
Overcrowded and noisy refectory atmosphere or how to fit 50 people in 10m2.
Tasteless entry,
Bad wine,
Meat filled with nerve.
Indeed, it is exactly like eating in a bad school canteen with the light off.
Stop, we stopped the experience there towards the exit and we were reimbursed without the manager flinching because the next batch of assholes ready to be fucked up is already waiting ...

Very cool experience!! The food was not amazing, but that is not why you go here. You should go here to eat in the dark. I am American, do not speak any French, and sat at a table, alone, with 5 French people I didn't know and couldn't see.... AND IT WAS AWESOME. The staff is also absurdly kind and helpful even though I needed a little extra help because of the language barrier. You sit at a table with approx 5-6 people, completely in the pitch dark. I thought my eyes would adjust after a while... 2 hours later they did not adjust. You really can't see anything. I ate the food with my hands because I couldn't see my plate enough to efficiently use my silverware. I assume i was in a larger dining room because I could hear many other people around me. At one point somewhere clinked their glass, gave a toast and we all sang happy birthday in French. I couldn't completely understand what was going on, but I felt part of the unseen community - like we were all in this weird experience together. It was one of the coolest and more exciting things I did in Paris - HIGHLY recommend. Get out of your comfort zone!

Interesting experience, it feels like learning to eat again, but beware: we are grouped together on tables of 6 people. The food is good, without being incredible or too sought after, but perhaps the fact of not seeing your plate plays. Good to know: 5 reduction for students and those under 21! To test at least once!

A unique taste experience, which you must have tried at least once in your life.
A kitchen to your taste (according to allergies or others) and prepare "homemade", very friendly servers. In short, a very good time

We really laughed and it's a lot of things to tell! This is also essential, because the food is good but are all conventional, the wine is variable. The reception is good out of the dark, however the service is less warm in the dark, where it should be flawless given the loss of landmarks due to darkness. The price is still a bit expensive. That said, it's really "out of the ordinary" and worth the trip! To do at least once in his life, despite these small defects they could catch up.

I encourage people to get rid of everything they know and come and try chef Jeremy's amazing cooking and human exchange with the guides. If we take the trouble to fully play the discovery, on the one hand our sense of taste will be more alert, more attentive, but all the other senses are overdeveloped to compensate for the loss of sight. And we discover that the brain is really more powerful than all the computers. Culinarily, as well as humanly, I have lived at home for a single time. Thank you! And a special at Raddah

About Restaurant Dans le Noir

Restaurant Dans le Noir: A Unique Sensory Experience

If you're looking for a dining experience that's out of the ordinary, Restaurant Dans le Noir is the place to be. Located in Paris, this restaurant offers a unique sensory experience that will leave you amazed and delighted.

What sets Restaurant Dans le Noir apart from other restaurants is its concept of dining in complete darkness. Yes, you read that right - when you dine at this restaurant, you'll be eating your meal in pitch-black darkness. This may sound daunting at first, but it's actually an incredibly liberating experience.

When you arrive at the restaurant, you'll be greeted by friendly staff who will guide you to your table. You'll then be given a menu to choose from - but here's the catch: the menu is written in Braille! Don't worry if you don't know how to read Braille; the staff will help guide you through it.

Once your order has been taken, it's time for the main event - dining in complete darkness. The waiters are all visually impaired or blind and are experts at navigating their way around the restaurant without any light. They'll guide each dish to your table and describe what's on your plate so that you can fully appreciate each flavor and texture.

Dining in complete darkness may seem like a novelty gimmick, but there's actually some science behind it too. When we eat with our eyes closed or in complete darkness, our other senses become heightened - particularly our sense of taste and smell. This means that every bite of food becomes more intense and flavorful than ever before.

But Restaurant Dans le Noir isn't just about dining; they also offer an Espace Sensoriel (Sensory Space) where guests can explore their senses even further through various activities such as wine tasting or perfume workshops.

The team behind Restaurant Dans le Noir believes that everyone should have access to unique sensory experiences regardless of their abilities or disabilities. That's why they've created an inclusive environment where everyone can come together and enjoy something truly special.

In conclusion, if you're looking for a one-of-a-kind dining experience that will stimulate all your senses while also promoting inclusivity and accessibility for all guests – look no further than Restaurant Dans le Noir!
