    Terribly disappointing breakfast experience. Please help me understand how the 2 pancakes on the plate equal the ala carte menu description for €15!? Orange granola pancakes where? It took 10 minutes for anyone to bother to take my order. Manager insisted it was correct and took the price of the coffee off the bill... really?! And empty coffee cup most of the time (only one refill) Tres mal. Don't bother with this place unless you want to fork out the €39 for the buffet where you can be your own server.

    This place has a magnificent outdoor terrace! Good (though overpriced) food. Bad service. Come here for the terrace and experience. Price/Quality: 3 stars Expect to spend around 50 euros per person. My appetizer was great while the entree and dessert was just ok. As it is a hotel after all, I believe the ingredients are not as fresh as you can have elsewhere, but the chef is good. Problem however is that it's overpriced. Service: 2 stars I'm sorry but for the price I am paying, the service is just terrible. The woman could not even remember which plate I ordered to provide me with the correct knife. Might I add that we were just one of two tables very early for brunch. Atmosphere: 5 stars Gorgeous terrace makes for great conversation. Overall would recommend for normal occasions, not to impress.

    We ate breakfast here each morning for a week. The buffet is nice, with American, European and Asian style offerings. Appox. 39 euro.

    Le Comptoir de la Gastronomie - An amazing French onion soup...

    The most life- changing experience with French cuisine. This is what French culinary dreams are…read moremade of. Get the appetizer grilled foie gras with side of greens, you won't regret it. The richness of the flavor and the texture which is not reminiscent of the traditional roasted duck or foie gras, but rather a much more like a luxurious and indulgent version. We enjoyed our dinner on the outside of the restaurant after about a 20-30 minute wait. The bone marrow had the best flavor I've experienced for the dish. However, it is definitely overshadowed by the rich flavor of the foie gras. This experience was unforgettable, with our view of Parisian streets on a brisk, April night. We even came back on our last night, but didn't realize the hours on Google maps was for the deli. The restaurant closes earlier, before 9:00 PM. This meal got us thinking about Paris in a positive light, and we hope to be able to come back to eat the amazing dishes again!

    This place was a huge letdown. They had a cute little artisanal market on the front left of the…read morerestaurant. They had a number of goods to choose from and I ended up buying a few things for souvenirs. As for the actual restaurant, they had a number of delicious sounding items on their menu. Our server was very attentive to us and helped us decide on our dinner orders. Similar to the other restaurants though. After our food was delivered, it was far in between when we were checked on again. And after dessert it took even longer for our server to bring the bill. Overall, the food was a letdown. I do not exaggerate when I say that the frog legs just tasted like slightly flavored water. My friend's ravioli had a fairly decent flavored sauce but the pasta was a bit chewy. My friend's duck breast was pretty tough; I had noticed the table next to us also ordered it and they seemed to have trouble finishing/cutting theirs as well. As for my steak with foie gras, well the steak was once again tough and the foie gras was weirdly stringy. It was soft for the most part but there were parts that were tough and stringy. Maybe that's a section that's generally separated in the preparation process and it was missed? In any case it was disappointing. What wasn't disappointing was dessert though; perfectly sweet and balanced.
