Le Jules Verne

My husband and I were looking forward to this experience for months and we were regretably disappointed. This was not our first Michelin experience, so we had high expectations. I will end on the high notes, but first the food was beautifuly presented with flavors that were unimpressive and unremarkable. We each ordered the 5 course tasting menu for dinner. From start to finish, we hoped that dishes would become progressively better, but our experience was quite the opposite. We left most of our food on the plates and filled up on the amazing table bread and butter because they were best things about our meal. For the high notes: the service is second to none. From the minute we arrived at the base of the tower, to our elevator ride back down, we were treated with great care, attention, and kindness. The sommelier who served us was spot on with his recommendations and his knowledge was impressive. The atmosphere is lovely and our special access to see the tower from outside the restaurant was appreciated; an experience we will never forget. I will reiterate that we were looking forward to our visit to Jules Verne and expected it to be the highlight of our trip. But from our experience (June 2026), we will not return and do not recommend. Unless, of course, they served only bread, butter, and wine.

We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary on July 31st and for this occasion, we had reserved a table at the Jules Verne. We were expecting big ... and it has been way beyond our expectations. From the Valet to all the staff in the restaurant, every single person has been highly professional end extremely kind with us. We chose the 7 course menu as ... when there, the experience has to be lived 100%. One dish after the other, we could feel all the different tatstes proposed and feel the construction of the menu: by this I mean, tastes were growing, dish after dish, until we reached a pick, then a plateau before having the deserts. It was truly wisely made and we enjoyed every single bite of it. And it has been an explosion of tastes, In addition, we followed the advice of the sommelier and enjoyed a young Chassagne Montrachet 1st cru: a true wonder. We finished with a surprise (Thanks so much for this), once again being an explosion of tastes ... Last but not least, for this special occasion, the staff put us on a window table witha view on the city. We could see the light changing, the night arriving and the tower sparkling 3 times. Overall, we stayed 4 hours in the Jules Verne: 4 hours which felt no time at all and which will remain forever our heads and in our hearts. Thank you Chef Anton for what you have created. Thank you staff for your kindness and your professionalism!

A truly unforgettable experience!!! OMG! well worth it if one is prepared for the indulgence (* $1,500++ for two). After all, dining atop the Eiffel Tower is something many would dream of experiencing at least once. I know I was. We made our reservation nearly three months in advance, which speaks to both the exclusivity and demand of this unique experience. The breathtaking views, impeccable service, and overall ambiance made the evening exceptionally memorable. While, humorously, we found ourselves a bit hungry an hour later, the experience itself far outweighed that minor detail. From a culinary perspective, some courses were outstanding, while others were less remarkable. However, we approached the evening with the understanding that it was as much about the experience as it was about the cuisine, and in that regard, it was entirely worthwhile. I’ll let the visual presentation of the eight-course menu speak for itself.

A truly memorable dining experience at Jules Verne. The service was exceptional throughout the evening—attentive, professional, and warm without ever being intrusive. Every dish was executed at a consistent two-star Michelin level, showcasing precision, balance, and outstanding ingredients. The langoustine course was the standout of the meal and, in my view, worthy of three-star recognition on its own. The wine and Champagne selection is extensive and carefully curated, offering excellent choices for every palate, although prices are undeniably on the higher side. Combined with the unique setting, it all comes together to create a truly special and unforgettable experience. Highly recommended.

Dining at Le Jules Verne was easily the most memorable culinary experience of my life. From the warm reception at the elevator to the final bite, the service was impeccable. We originally booked "À la Cove"—a cozy spot overlooking the tower's machinery—as it was the only seating available on short notice. Tip: Book more than two weeks in advance if you want the main dining room. However, the staff truly went above and beyond. After I contacted them, they promised to try and move us, and they delivered! We enjoyed appetizers in the cove and moved to a table with a stunning panoramic view of Paris for our mains and dessert. The hospitality here is the gold standard. Though we intended to have the 5-course menu, we upgraded to the 7-course—a must-do! Chef Frédéric Anton’s langoustine and turbot featured flavor combinations unlike anything I’ve ever tasted. It was a creative, fun, and delicious journey. Le Jules Verne is truly the pinnacle of French culinary art in the world’s most iconic landmark.
