Dragons Élysées — Restaurant in Paris

I don’t write reviews for restaurants ever, but I had to share my terrible experience at this restaurant.

I went with my family, and it wasn't pleasant at all. The waitress was VERY RUDE, seemed annoyed about almost everything and kept sighing.

We ordered some drinks, the red wine was served chilled (and tasted awful), the starters were half burnt (and expensive). They didn't bother serving water for the rest of the party and the service was terrible. We asked for a cup of hot water but were told that they only serve tea and hot water is not available (like really, so what do you use to make tea?). So, we just asked for the bill and left.

They need to be polite with guests, no wonder the place was empty. I wish I could put 0 stars!!! I don’t...

The 4 things you need to know:

1. Tasty food. While the menu consists of classic dishes that have been popular in the West for a long time, the results are pretty authentic in flavor and downright tasty. Steamed fish, Peking duck, soups, rice -- all tasty. Dunno about the Thai food, but I don't blame them for broadening the menu.

2. Gorgeous, fun, retro decor -- the fish tank extending everywhere, the dragons flanking the facade, colorful string lights, banquettes. Great for kids. Quiet Chinese pop ballads + swooshing aquarium water = nostalgic and relaxing soundscape.

3. Friendly wait-staff.

4. No complaints about the prices, given the rents in this area. This restaurant deserves to stick around for a long...

Good place to go! Tasty & authentic food, fancy decoration, quiet environment, super friendly staff! Ordered Beijing duck, garlic and pepper beef (very tender), seabass (super tasty and tender), sweet sour chicken, broccoli, pineapple seafood rice, fried noodles (this one not quite good), shrimp ravioli (tasty but wierd with spicy sauce instead of vinigar). Desserts are not so authentic Chinese but quite creative / tailored a bit to French culture I think. Staff very friendly with good recommendations. Even helped to remove the bones from the seabass so it s easier.🤭 Overall very pleasant experience! I had dinner here with French colleagues, this meal introduced them good Chinese cuisine, also well accepted/...
