Erso Restaurant — Restaurant in Paris

What an absolute joy to dine at Erso. This is an excellent place to be, where the staff, the food, and the room are all the best! We were welcomed with a smile, seated in beautiful surroundings, and after a moment, given a detailed walk-through of the evening menu.

We started with the asparagus which was cooked to perfection with a bit of crunch, but so tender, it melted in your mouth. The dried ricotta provided the salt, the mezcal sabayon was beautifully light and airy, giving richness, and I think a shaved leek provided the acid. A perfect balance of the elements! We paired the starter with a glass of Louise Brison A L'aube De La Cote Des Bar Champagne, which worked well indeed.

For our mains, I enjoyed the lamb and my wife the veal. Both dishes had us swooning with delight! The veal was shredded and braised, reformed and accompanied by a black garlic mousseline adorned with morel mushrooms, fava beans, and purple carrots. My lamb was perfectly cooked, with a great flavor, and balanced by a wild garlic and lemon stuffing. It was accompanied by wild asparagus, grilled zucchini, and a kalamata olive mousse that captured the essence of the olive perfectly, yet was so airy and light, just fantastic! For the mains, we enjoyed a bottle of 2017 Domaine de Villeneuve Châteauneuf-du-Pape Les Vieilles Vignes, which was perfect! A nice CdP, not overly ripe, with great minerality.

We finished with the raw and cooked strawberries with almond ice cream atop a dacquoise accompanied by a creme princesse, a perfect end to a perfect meal, we will...

This was just perfection❤I dont use social media so my tips usually come from popular Google articles on restaurants/dogs/running/photography and this article popped up on Erso (the article said that it was one of the newest and best, I can attest that it is). So myself and my friend went along for lunch - it actually provides a great lunch menu even on a Saturday (This is rare because most places, especially Michelin stars take away the lunch offer which is not very consumer friendly). We ordered starter, aile de raie and then mains we got, pêche du jour which was Merlan fish (not the most expensive piece but if done right is super tasty) and for dessert Chou filled with mascarpone, sesame noir ice cream, citron vert and if I'm not mistaken balsamic cream. Food was incredible, all of it, perfectly and elegantly presented. All for 29euro - unbelievable value. Staff here are happy in their work which the customer can see as they are so warm and helpful. Great fitout of the cafe, beautiful colours. I can definitely see why it had 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Strongly recommend and looking forward to...

The starters were excellent, we tried both the squid and the duck, and both were flavorful and perfectly cooked. The squid’s sauce was creamy and delicious. The chocolate dessert was also amazing, the flavors were well balanced, and the cake was incredibly moist and rich. I wasn’t as impressed with the main dish I ordered. While the fish was perfectly cooked, I found the sauce a bit unbalanced. I ended up eating just the fish and left most of the sauce untouched.

The service was very friendly and well-paced, not too slow, just right. Be sure to book in advance, as they can fill up quickly. Overall, a...
