Eugène Eugène - Puteaux

Honestly, we were very disappointed with everything in the restaurant except for the venue. We were 2 people, seated on a tiny table. It was reminiscent of Parisian sized 2 person tables but we are in the UAE and because we usually do sharing concept it was very difficult to eat with such limited space. Additionally, the 2 person tables were so close together that things were being knocked over and it was uncomfortable for us as staff was constantly towering over us, making the meal feel very uncomfortable. A bit strange this the place is very spacious. The service was poor at best. Host staff was very friendly and a great intro to the restaurant. However, after they seated us, our server did not come to greet us. She only came 10-15 minutes later and only after I made very direct eye contact and looked around frantically, no smiles, no greeting. No help was given on the menu, no one came to see if we needed anything, no one asked us how our evening was going. Nothing. It was not a very welcoming environment. Even the manager, a french man, looked very unhappy and annoyed, didnt see him smile ONCE, didnt give a very good vibe for a 5 star hotel. We ordered 2 glasses of wine, no offer to taste, just poured. All these things are very standard for a 5 star dining experience. The food was average at best . The steak tasted like iron, the sea bream was clearly pre-packed and the chef didnt have the time to even plate it in a way that it looks fresh. The half portion of lobster pasta had a tiny half lobster tail, a bit pathetic looking dish.

Honestly, I have no desire to visit your restaurant again or will ever recommend to someone else. It was very disappointing as we had such high hopes.
