The food was delicious and they brought us lots of additional courses. As repeat customers, we were sad to see the cheese cart was no longer there, but we thoroughly enjoyed our experience! Absolutely worth checking out!! read more

I dined here for lunch this past Saturday and was not disappointed. The bread pictured was absolutely incredible. It was made out of pastry dough and was insanely buttery. It also came with an extra serving of herb butter in case you weren't satisfied. I did not like the amuse-bouche, but I don't like sweet potato flavored things very much. The hors-d'œuvres were very flavorful and varied. The fish main was quite good. It had a deconstructed egg, the white of which I did not like at all. I was also not too fond of the zoodle nest. The yolk and the fish itself were standouts. The pigeon main was a bit disappointing. It lacked a lot of flavor, and the cannellini beans were noticeably undercooked. I thoroughly enjoyed the stewed pigeon served on top of the beans, though. I ate all of the accoutrements and toppings on the dessert but could not muster enough strength to tackle the cake part. It was like a slab of hard gelatin. I am not sure whether this is a delicacy I am unfamiliar with but, regardless, my palate did not appreciate it. The post-dessert treats were very good. I especially appreciated the macaron. After dinner I ordered an espresso. It was €7. Be warned. The service was very good. They had more than enough staff working to handle everyone dining, and I would say they provided white-glove service. They crumb dusted, which is a touch I always appreciate. Further, the ambiance was exquisite. It was intimate yet bright enough for a lunch service. I thought their interior design was very tasteful. Overall, I would recommend La Truffière. While my experience wasn't flawless, I anticipate that their dinner service is a bit more polished. read more

Dining at a Michelin Star restaurant was at the top of my To-Do List during my visit to Paris, only rivaled by climbing the Eiffel Tower. I had high expectations from a restaurant that boasted a star and I am happy that I chose this establishment for my first Michelin Star experience. I decided on the 3 course lunch, and was pleasantly surprised when 2 additional courses were added on at no charge (one before our appetizer and the other after our dessert). The lunch menu changes frequently so although my pictures might look tasty I suggest looking at the lunch menu before hand to see what the offering might be. Was the food phenomenal, no but it was delicious and I genuinely enjoyed all the courses. Just for fun though the Shrimp Risotto was my favorite course and I was visibly saddened when my spoon hit the bottom of my bowl. The only negative experience for me was the hovering by the waiters. Our conversation was frequently interrupted by someone refilling our barely empty waters or checking in to make sure we were fine. Also, since we were seated next to the entryway into the dining room they were in our line of sight just standing there waiting to spring into action. For me that kind of took away from the experience and overall enjoyment of the meal, but honestly I was so excited to be there it only registered as a mild annoyance. Would I come back to La Truffière? I probably would for sentimental reasons since it was my first Michelin Star restaurant, but beyond that I'm excited to try the many other restaurants Paris has to offer. read more

MICHELIN star restaurant for a good reason. Their theme is truffle! So lots of dishes with truffle, including their deserts! And they were all so good. Service was amazing. We came here twice in three days, once for a weekday lunch and once for a weekend dinner. Dinner was pretty last minute. We made reservations through a website called the fork (if I remember correctly) and they give you 20% off your order (excluding alcohol). Lunch consisted of 4 courses and dinner consisted of 7. Lunch was about $55 and dinner was about $145. Menu was different from lunch to dinner so it did not feel like we ate the same meal for a different price. We added wine to both meals. Definitely recommend. I imagine their truffle pre-fix meal is delicious as well but that was €200 per person... we didn't try it but someday! Would definitely come back. read more

It is a beautiful and unique space but I will never forget the mediocre meal that they saw fit to serve us while charging a premium price. A tiny piece of fish that was nauseatingly close to cold and quite frankly almost inedible among a couple of other food QC/temperature and service issues made us feel like fleeced tourists that were merely tolerated. I still have shame about choosing this place for a special celebratory meal. read more

I just wanna emphasize that I had a great experience this Saturday in this restaurant. The entrée is creative, refreshing, plate is so exquisite and delicious, even the dessert looks so appetizing and the after meal snacks were all so fantastic. If you wanna order separately, it's gonna cost you a fortune. But if you just wanna have an affordable great experience. I would assure you that the menu is nothing less. Love the waiter, he was so funny and considerate, always wore a smile on his face. I would surely come back every time. read more

There are houses whose constancy and perseverance in adversity must be commended. La Truffière had suffered a fire in 2002, which forced it to abandon its elegant fireplace (when you are kept by safety standards). It had waited years for a Michelin star, which has been significantly faster for other establishments. At the departure of Jean-Christophe Rizet, the same guide removed this same star with a celerity rarely seen. It has been known to be much slower for other establishments... The parenthesis Poard being closed, we begin today on new bases with Aurélien Braguier. If I tell you that his last job was with Jean-Luc Rabanel, you know immediately what to expect: the sublimation of the vegetable in all its forms. It starts with an amuse-bouche of peas with a confit tomato sauce, sesame-mounted cream and shizo young shoots. A preparation that clears the mouth at the beginning of a meal. Pretty worked product that sets the mood. The ceviche de dorade alternates the variety of tastes by mixing avocado, lemon, Espelette pepper, red peppers and mango. The leaves of nasturtium and cucumber flowers complete the whole. There will be a slight imbalance on the lemon, a hint too present. Small concern recognized by the chef and attributed, we agree, the settings inseparable from his recent arrival. The mackerel is more Provençal since it is smoked with thyme and rosemary and accompanied by beans. The flower and especially the nasturtium leaf, which was already on the ceviche, gives an original peppery edge. It is accompanied by an infusion of kaffir lime and fish bones stock. Infusion which is in fact an aroma but completely defatted. The appellation is more light! It is always this nasturtium found on shrimp turmeric snack with an emulsion with seaweed. Finally a little meat with the oysters meat of the crunchy tartlet of yellow carrots, parsnip, shizo and borage flower for this time. Then the Iberian pork presa, fennel, beetroot, carrot tops and nasturtium young shoots. And a reduced poultry juice. What does not change at La Truffière is the impressive cheese platter that honors the French tradition. They are more and more rare the restaurants that dare to exceed the banal assortment of three / four pasta preserved without respect in the refrigerator. As for desserts, the recent arrival of the chef has not yet given him the time to organize the menu as he pleases. So we remain for the moment on good achievements but remain fairly traditional, without the originality deployed in salty. We can not finish a meal at La Truffière without being tempted by a digestive that Eric Pelchat will find you by plunging greedily into the cellar! Armagnac being my sin, it will be a Domaine de Mader 1974. For the wines, Christian Sainsard is a passionate who accumulates the most prestigious flasks. It does not have 1 but 17 vintages of Petrus, 27 of Ausone and 28 of Cheval Blanc. But also 2 pages of Romanée-Conti and 13 pages of Champagne! So you will find something to please. But will I unnecessarily lengthen this article with the photos of the bottles that I had the pleasure (and the honor) to taste? I make you a simple gallery which, if you read the legends, will enrich without any problem your oenological culture. And you will of course salivate! read more

I wanted to make my first meal in Paris big, so I came to La Truffiere and was not disappointed. I got the 7 course Aroma menu and a glass of wine. Service - Best service I think I've received... ever! I've never had a more polite waiter in my life. He made sure every aspect of my experience was to my liking. He would do a great job explaining the dishes and also tell me about his favourite dishes in the set as well. They really make you feel like royalty! Food - Where do I begin. Attention to detail was top notch. The dishes were all plated elegantly; you couldn't even find a messy spot or smudge if you tried! My favourite dishes in the set were: Fish in coconut cream and King crab ravioli. The other dishes were good as well, however I wasn't really a big fan of the pistachio mousse and brie dish. It was very heavy and could use either less brie, or something to cut the fattiness. At the end they serve a few of their house treats, the standouts were: of course their famous Truffle Macaron (SO good!), and their truffle caramel. I would definitely recommend this place. How it doesn't have a Michelin star yet is beyond me, but if they keep it up I have no doubt they'll get it soon! read more

We had the three course lunch menu and it was amazing value for the type of food and the impeccable service. 1. Cauliflower soup (4.5/5): simple but perfectly done, velvety smooth, croutons just the right amount of crunch 2. Vegetable and tofu (4.5/5): again, simple but nuanced in taste. Amazing sauce with complex spices, soft and smooth texture. 3. Salmon with vegetable (3.5/5): pretty plain. The salmon is cooked well but nothing special. The vegetables were great but salty 4. Mousse dessert with fig (4.5/5): light and refreshing yet flavourful, lovely combo 5. Cheese plate (3.5/5): three types of mild and creamy cheese with a mustard seed compote. The service of the restaurant is world caliber. We've been to nice restaurants but this is probably the most attentive and careful service we've ever received. I selected a Himalayan black tea as a beverage and the waiter spent a lot of time throughout the meal to brew and rebrew the tea, poured for sample each time, and checked and refilled my cup a dozen times. It's a pleasure to experience such cordial service that's a rarity in today's society. This alone sets the meal apart as a Parisian experience. read more

This is a superb Michellin one star resto which maintained its star despite a change in chefs last year. The new chef, 30 years old, is wonderful. We were the first to try the 45 euro lunch menu. It started with eggplant that was in its shell with a miso topping. Then sea bass with crisp skin and a lovely, nonfat sauce. Finally a spectacular lemon tart. I rarely post on yelp but the quality, ambiance and quality of service made me do it. We tried Benoit 2 days ago. The difference in favor of the Truffiere was huge! read more

The service is amazing! They will feed you bread until you turn blue literally. We were given so much bread I couldn't finish my main course. I got the risotto and it was good a bit salty but good. You can definitely taste the truffles in all of their dishes but for some reason I cannot say it was the best thing I've had so I cannot give them 5 stars considering its suppose to be a Michelin star restaurant. PS - a perk is that at the end of your meal, you are presented with candy options! read more

This was the best meal we had in Paris - far superior even to the other Michelin-star restaurants we tried! First, the service was superlative - I comment on this first instead of the food, because it struck us immediately upon entering and sitting down. Before anything was served, we felt welcome, special, as if the staff's only job was to cater to our every need, and this feeling did not stop even AFTER we left the restaurant (our waiter Alexandre saw us posing when we left and stepped outside to offer to take our picture in front of the restaurant). He was friendly, efficient, and understood the delicate balance between providing good conversation and giving us privacy. Our water cups were never empty, our table only had crumbs on it until the current course had been cleared away, and our teenagers were treated with respect and courtesy, despite being lamentably underdressed. The food was great too - we had the regular lunch menu, which was a bargain at 42€. From the Amuse Bouche to the after-lunch "surprise", each dish was nicely balanced in taste and texture, beautifully presented, and had pleasant, unexpected flavors and ingredients. I would describe them in detail, but the menu changes every week, and you would not likely be able to enjoy what we had today, but I'm sure it will be just as good! Our parting note was a selection of small bites that left us with the lasting impression of sweetness, elegance, and fond memories - definitely try the chocolate-truffle macarons and the truffled caramels; to die for! If we lived in Paris, I would go every week so as to not miss a dish! read more

One of my favorite meals in Paris, to celebrate Kuya's (older brother) bday. I can still taste everything and how wonderful and carefully prepared each of the dishes were. That black truffle macaron at the end, so rich and decadent service was of course impeccable. Will gladly go back if I'm in the area (I hope that's soon!) Asparagus soup with chorizo on top and Parmesan cookie on the side * Sea bream ceviche with mango gel and espellete pepper * smoked mackerel with kumbawa and fish bone infusion, and broad beans * shrimp with fresh turmeric, peas, herbs and seaweed emulsion * crusty tartlet with fooling chicken, licorice juice * Iberian pork with reduction, sweet potato purée fennel carrots * Manjari and lemon association with bergamot sorbet * black truffle macaron, caramel, and orange jelly read more

This would be the best restaurant in Washington, DC. How it doesn't have a Michelin star is beyond me. My girlfriend and I came in right before close and without a reservation. They could've turned us away or rushed us through the meal; we would have totally understood either way. But the only restriction placed on us was that we had to order a la carte. We were treated to world class service and the best meal we had in Paris. The bread: phenomenal and a new slice cut for us as soon as we finished one. Look, I'm not a big chocolate guy, but my main - chocolate macaron with foie gras moose - was INSANELY GOOD. Again, this was not a desert, it was an entree (plât in french?). Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. Of course got the truffle add-on, which only enhanced the meal. The gf got the lobster which was also sublime. Even though it was well past close, the sommelier gave us a private tour of his collection. The waiter (manager? Well-dressed Asian gentleman) was so personable and welcoming. One of the top 3 waiters I've had in my lifetime. Bottom line: a ridiculous meal in an intimate location with lots of history, and with service that can only be described as perfection. A perfect dinner in Paris. read more

Delightful experience. I left feeling as if I was part of a theater troupe and all of us, chef, ensemble of servers, ourselves and of course the food and wine, played our role in the event. We selected the surprise menu. Seven courses, built around black truffles. It was a smashing success and well worth the price. My wife and I were delighted. read more

Looking back on finding out about La Truffiere, I should have known it was going to be a bad experience. Of all the amazing food in Paris, I was unfortunate enough to subject myself to this place because of a flyer I found in my hotel. It looked nice, but I should have known that they may as well have a restaurant pimp standing outside, suckering unsuspecting tourists in to eat their marginally good food at RIDICULOUSLY high prices. I get the game that they are playing. Get wealthy people to come in and eat, while the expert waiters are trained to balloon their bills to astronomical levels. Not only are they extremely transparent and pushy in continually upselling you, they make you feel obligated to go along with their "suggestions" or else you seem cheap. It's not like I'm not willing to spend €300 on dinner, regardless of the exchange rate. I've done that on many occasions. I actually came in under-budget for my vacation, and I could have spent €500 or €1,000 on dinner that night. The cold hard truth is that the product they are offering is worth 1/3 of what they're charging. Not even in this magic land they created where espresso costs €5 or €10, depending on which coffee bean you choose. The food itself was not very inventive, imaginative or delicious. We got the 3 course prix fixe menu for €75 euro each. It was a foie gras dish, a fish dish, and a pork loin dish, with an amuse and an intermezzo. We also got some toast with 2 grams of fresh black truffles on it for €16. With a bottle of wine, dessert, and espresso, it came to €300. Nothing was noteworthy. It was okay, but I shouldn't be paying that much for okay food. To call their wine list extensive would be an understatement. Their French wine selection itself was literally as thick as a dictionary. And the expert waiter points to a bottle that they are charging €145 for. Literally 3X as much as I would be willing to pay, but I ended up getting a "marginal" bottle for €60, as I felt like a schmuck for declining to pay €145 for the wine he "suggested". You can walk down literally thousands of streets in Paris and find a half dozen cafes that will serve you food of similar quality and charge you what it's really worth. La Truffiere is like a passage to a secret dimension of suspended reality. It's like you're paying in pesos or something. I think this must be a trap for Eastern European mafiosi who don't know what high cuisine really is and like spending €1,000 for dinner to show off. Maybe it's a social experiment to see how much people will pay for mediocre food, if you make them feel obligated to keep adding on extra charges. Do yourself a favor and walk away in any direction from this restaurant and you will be happier. I guarantee that. read more

Me, my husband, my in-laws and my 21 month old son went there for lunch. As soon as we walked in my son started to cry. We were going to leave as not to offend the other patrons, but the staff offered to sit us in a private room downstairs. It was a gorgeous party room, with stone walls and about 4-5 tables. We were the only ones there and they brought in a little couch/armchair for my son to sit on. It was a cozy and perfect room for us and the little guy. They had one of their waiters paying exclusive attention to us, but always slightly out of sight. Perfect. For food we had the lunch tasting menu and the wine pairing. The food was to die for, really well done, flavorful and perfect size. The wine pairing was great as well. We could've not have asked for anything new better. We felt really welcome and well taken care. I will definitely be back and recommend this place. It is 100% worth it. read more

Best deal in town for a Michelin-starred restaurant. $35 for a 3-course lunch. I wanted to write this review if only to bump up the rating on Yelp for this gem that took me forever to find. To counteract some nasty review from another guy that had nothing objective in it. I live in New York and Michelin stars in restaurants are a big deal to me. So when I came for a vacation to Paris I right away set my goals on eating at least once in such restaurant. Michelin-starred restaurants are ridiculously expensive here so I settled for lunch. Even for lunch finding something with a tasting menu under 40 euro was a struggle. I did not want to go a la carte, I prefer pri-fixe or a tasting menu. This restaurant allowed reservations via the website which was very helpful so I didn't have to bug the hotel concierge. Also all the staff spoke decent English and the menus were in English as well. Dress up! All men in the restaurant had the suit on. The courses were very well presented and tiny as expected. I had veal tartare, pork leg and chocolate dessert. Parsnip soup for amuse bouche. The sommelier immediately asked which wine we would start with and then as soon as we had the first glass he came asking what wine would be next. We went with his suggestions of sauvignon blank and Beaujolais both of which were great and not very expensive when we got the bill: 8 and 12 euro for a glass respectively. Service was outstanding, the whole lunch took at least 1.5 hours which is normal duration for a French lunch. The only two things that I would ding the restaurant for are 1) the knife to cut through the pork was not the sharpest and 2) we made a mistake of ordering coffee which was almost as expensive as wine, 6 euro for a tablespoon and they literally poured no more than a tablespoon into my boyfriend's tiny cup. My own cup was filled normally but his barely had anything in it. The whole lunch with two glasses of wine and espresso came to 125 euros for two of us and with the exception of coffee it was well worth it. Please come out here, it's a great place. read more

We dined here last night (birthday dinner for my counterpart). Skip to the end for bottom line if you're in a rush. I would have given this 4.5 stars if I could have. I informed the restaurant via email about my dairy allergy when making the reservation and requested that we be seated in the cave. Upon arrival, we were led downstairs to a small table in a unique cave room with only three tables. The gracious Maitre d, Alexandre, assured me that he had spoken to the chef about the allergy and that if I chose to do the tasting menu they would do everything possible to minimise any exposure to dairy in the dishes. We elected to do the 7-course tasting menu (an exceptional value at 105 euros per person). I asked the maitre d' if I could be served some simple fresh fruit instead of the cheese course as I am unable to eat cheese (dairy allergy). He said that may not be possible, but he would check. The food: Each dish was explained well by the staff member who delivered the respective dish. Amuse-bouche: soy glazed cod - quite good. First course: Beet carpaccio with Razor clam tartar - good. Second course: Quail Filet with parsnip puree - outstanding! Third course: Scallop carpaccio - simple, but good. Fourth course: John Dory with risotto- good, but not amazing. Fifth course: Rib steak with herbs served with sweet potato puree and roasted vegetables - DELICIOUS. This was my favorite dish of the evening! Sixth course: This course is where the problem arose. My partner received his cheese plate (which he said was good - but not the best he has ever had. It would have been nicer if a cheese cart was brought around whereby you could choose your own cheese. This is a pre-selected cheese plate. But overall, no big deal. He said the cheese was still good). Instead of bringing fresh fruit, a very large plate with a small patch of green garnish was dropped off in front of me (see photo). I must have had a confused expression on my face and the server apologised. I have been to many Michelin-starred restaurants and expect that fresh ingredients like fruit are available. This has never really been an issue. I was pretty thrown off. It's not in keeping with all the other elements of the meal, to prepare a plate of underwhelming garnish for a guest in this situation. I was very disappointed. (Ultimately, the bill reflected a discount likely associated with this incident. If so, thank you for making it right.) Pre-dessert: coconut mouse - refreshing and delicious (especially with a glass of D'en Segur Sauvignon d'or). I would highly recommend pairing this dessert wine. Seventh course: Baba limoncello and ricotta ice-cream (my partner said this was delicious). Petit fours: A complimentary selection of treats are brought to the table post-meal. The chocolate truffle macaron is outstanding! Overall: Lovely restaurant, great service, very well-executed food, great value, clean bathroom, extensive wine list, top-notch Maitre d and Sommelier. Almost perfect evening (the garnish plate was a real let down). Save for the garnish fiasco, I would say this experience is in line with many of the 1-star Michelin restaurants I dined with before. Perhaps they will earn their back star very soon. read more

My wife and I went there for valentines dinner last night. The place was very romantic and a perfect setting. Our waiter was extremely nice and attentive. In fact, he was so great I feel somewhat bad leaving a poor review. Unfortunately the food just wasn't good. We had the tasting menu ($160 euro a person) with the wine pairing ($105 euro a person). Most of the food was bland and underwhelming. Our hotel recommended the restaurant to us and we will definitely mention to them they should stop sending guests. For close to $600 euros for dinner I would expect to leave and at least say "it was alright." Save your money and go elsewhere unless you want to get a second meal afterword back at your hotel like my wife and I did. read more

Now, it is just a trendy restaurant with great food. read more

We had a good meal, but we paid for an exceptional one. Our starter was an egg-vegetable combination. We ordered a supplement of white truffle which smelled absolutely amazing when it was grated over our dishes .... for about 30 seconds. The perfume faded away quickly, which made this a very expensive whiff indeed (more than €100). The wine list was very extensive, especially for those who are prepared to pay more than €200 a bottle. The capabilities of the sommelier didn't match the list, her advice was hesitant and she brought and opened the wrong bottle (which made our meal very expensive for them as well). A second course of Saint Pierre was fine. The cheeses were very good, and the fruit desert amazing. Bread came in generous quantities and so did my digestive. The bill was generous too, at almost €600 for an experience worth about half that sum. Not recommendable. read more

La Truffière - Egg-vegetable combination with a white truffle condiment. - French Near Me - Paris, 75

This was by far our absolute best dining experience while in Paris. Yes, the food was absolutely amazing. The little stools for women's purses were absolutely adorable. The cozy romantic atmosphere was undeniable. Here's the real reason why I'm posting this review though, it was the UNBELIEVABLE service. I'm going to have to use his ethnicity to identify him (definitely not my preferred methodology) but here's the deal. I've ate at a lot of fancy establishments, but NEVER have I received the exceptional service that the Asian gentlemen provided to me and my wife on our honeymoon trip to Paris. He went above and beyond in every way possible, describing each dish in detail, substituting courses on the fly if we weren't excited about a certain ingredient, his English was impeccable and his enthusiasm was infectious. I didn't want to just eat at one of his tables, I wanted to hang out with the guy. He created an amazing culinary experience for us that we will savor for years to come. Will recommend this restaurant to all my family and friends who visit Paris. Great job!!! read more

Cuisine: Some interesting flavor combinations, but overall bland. An unconvincing truffle combination at dessert. The gastronomical menu (not written out on the menu, but announced at the table) we tried was a sequence of Lilliputian dishes, never enough on the plate (actually, a huge black slate) to set the fork into. Ambiance: Uptight. Small room, service unsmiling and much too close. 4 or 5 waiters clumped together just 3 meters from the table, throughout the meal. Table crumb-scraping every 2 minutes or so. Toilets inaccessible: very steep steps, no railing, one must pass next to a service area. Overall: Tasty for the most part, but not satisfying. More than a bit pretentious: a footstool for your handbag, Madame, presented with the explanation that this is "la Vieille France"... Price: Astronomical. Too much to pay for this series of samples. Verdict: For snobs only. read more

One of my favorite restaurants in Paris. I used to live nearby and it was a treat. Eric is the very able and suave manager; Christian is the owner. Reservations, especially on weekends or during May-July; Sept.-Oct. are a must. You usually dine downstairs in the stone cave; but don't worry, it is quite an elegant place. Perfect for a romantic evening. The fireplace upstairs is a very nice place to take your coffee and cognac--in fall or winter. This also could be one of the best deals on lunch or brunch in the city. A three-course prix fixed menu then will be as cheap as at most mediocre brasseries. The regular dinner menu is pricey but well worth it (about 125 euros+ a person with a lower priced bottle of wine). One of the big starred Michelins will cost you three times this or more, and the food and service will not be as good. The wine list is enormous, but expensive (it's my one negative here: wine prices). The service overall is first-rate. The restaurant, although somewhat touristy in its clientele, does draw local French as well, who appreciate the refinements in food preparation, service and atmosphere. English well spoken here. read more
