The place is objectively very nice, gracefully designed, however we wanted to celebrate our friend birthday and didn’t have the best customer service, it was in fact terrible. We were met with disdain and condescending remarks by one of the workers taking our orders because we didn’t understand the difference between sides and meals (which is not indicated on the menu knowing that certains sides look like a whole meal.) After the misunderstanding, each one of us were forced to order AGAINST our will a side and a meal, (because we were less people than planned despite ourselves) and MOSTLY due to « sales turnover worries » the fact that if we privatize a room they expect a certain amount spent (not indicated or told anywhere or anytime regarding the room WE had) and the reason that the restaurant needed to keep a « certain ranking » cause of the frequent visitors— mentioning their spending habits to implicitly look down on our purchase power (which shouldn’t be said to any customer coming to spend money in a restaurant whatever the amount is, moreover NEED I say we were youthful black and arabs people compared to Russian people) The food was just average and the customer service made the whole experience even worst. It is totally overpriced and overrated in my opinion, I would say however that the waiters was very nice and warm contrary to their colleagues on the floor that greeted and treated us overall very poorly and ruined our birthday celebration, but go ahead if you wanna take pictures in a nice place! Oh and hopefully you get a room where there is a heater because obviously it...
Read moreI really wanted to love this place but I’ve genuinely never been more disappointed at a restaurant in Paris.
My husband and I love lobster, we spend summers in New England, so when we saw it on the menu with an egg yolk sauce we thought it sounded amazing. It arrived and was 100% fried even though there was absolutely 0 (ZERO!!) indication it would be fried. We would have never ordered it had we known.
First of all, who fries lobster? Ruined the taste, tasted of nothing…and not only that, they fried it in its shell so you were literally eating crunchy shell and it was impossible. Barely finished 1/3 of mine, but enjoyed none of it.
When we made a comment to the server, all he said was “yeah we receive this comment a lot and I keep telling management.” Ummmm???? If that’s the case, update your menu and maybe in the meantime warn people so they know what they’re getting? Not a single soul would read that menu and know it was fried.
€220 later, we had to go home and order food.
I’m sure other dishes are great here and the restaurant is pretty, but the complete deception ruined the night. By far the worst lobster I’ve ever had in my life. Whatever you do, don’t order...
Read moreWhat a gorgeous surprise to stumble on in Paris!!!
First of all, this place is outstanding in food, true to authentic Chinese cuisine. I’m Asian (half Chinese FYI) and grew up eating this cuisine.
The dumplings were NEXT LEVEL! Hand made with detail, every bite had its own unique texture that was well done and exploded with flavors on-point! You could taste that the meat inside of each dumpling was prepared to make it perfect for every bite, not just simply mixed together and stuffed into a dough. This isn’t just your average dumpling place, if you’re looking for stuffed meat into dough then maybe go elsewhere where - because this place is a whole other game here.
We had the general tsao chicken (best we’ve ever had ever!!!) , steamed sea bass (the layer of the flavor and scallion oil was beautiful), and the eggplant was diiiiiivinnneeee. And dessert was 🤯 so good. The mocktails were super inventive I had one layered with tea and guava ✨
Not only is the restaurant stunningly decorated but we found out the people running this place are a trio of AMAZING women who bring flawless service and attention to detail. WOW. Is all I can say. A highlight of ours in...
