If you're going to splash out on one restaurant in Paris for that special meal, I would highly recommend Taillevent. It's formal but not stuffy and the clientelle are people who are very loyal to the place, coming back year after year. It is the perfect place to celebrate a special occassion with your best friend or partner because it's... more

My girlfriend and I went to Taillevent on a Monday in mid November for lunch. I booked using the email link and all emails were responded to within 24 hours and were very friendly (and in English). We only booked about 2 weeks in advance which was a nice surprise. On arrival I was told that I would be loaned... more

One of the best meals of my life. The food is superb - so interesting, unusual, bold, and wow - extraordinary. Every dish blew me away. The room is lovely, if a bit subdued. Wait staff is highly professional, courteous, there when you need them but never intrusive. This is truly one of the great restaurants. If you can afford,... more

We decided to have lunch instead of dinner. The ambience was very comforting and elegant. We were seated in a smallish room in the front which had a small army of waiters. They seemed to all speak english if needed or were happy to listen to broken french. The waiters were very professional and friendly: none of the arrogance that... more

I chose Taillevent to celebrate my 40th birthday and could not have made a better choice. The restaurant was stunning, the staff amazing and the food perfection. While Taillevent was recently demoted to a two Michelin star restaurant, the experience was definitely four stars! Dinner & dessert for two with aperitifs, a bottle of wine and digestifs came out to... more

My wife and I love dining out and had never been to Paris. We've been to a few Michelin starred restaurants in the UK and, after reading the reviews on this site, we settled on Le Taillevent for our special meal in the French capital. Reservation was made easily via email, and all conversation was polite and personal. When asking... more

Like so many others, we found the service to be extremely attentive - with genuine kindness and politeness. This even extended beyond the actual dining experience, as their correspondence with us via email before and after were promptly responded to and handled with the utmost politeness. We made reservations online in advance, and several days after having eaten there I... more

When will TripAdvisor ratings become more important than Michelin stars? This was the only "splurge" restaurant we went to when we were in Paris, so i can only compare it to a few small hole in the wall restaurants we found using TripAdvisor. The other restaurants were: Le Relais de l'Isle La Cordonnerie Le Florimond You really can't compare these... more

The food was great. The service was excellent. The restaurant itself is beautiful. It was expensive but real value for money. There were awkward customer beside us and they were treated with incredible tact and politeness. Not a place to go if you are on a budget but the next time we need a treat it is one of the... more
