What a disappointment ! I used to go to eat seafood and delicious fish there but ..now its pretentious bad place...with not even a platter of seafood but new cuisine with no flavor ...
We arrive table of 2...we asked for the wine list .. And a bottle of la doucette.. We asked 2 times to get the food menu while someone would come to ask for us to order water bottles literally 2 second from each other ... Food? nobody explained us as if they were busy with a half empty restaurant. They just told us it is a new menu and quickly ran away....
I usually do not like too much advice so...
My partner took 9 oyster as he is a super mega FAN of seafood that is why we came first.... He Could not eat more than 3...almost threw up..they were wrong...
I took carpaccio of scallop... Was so thick slices while hidden with a lot of figues .. No salt at all... I struggled to eat... A tasteless association ..
Then bar de lignes .. Very good fish... Presentation was terrible once cut. I asked to have a bit of fresh lemon .. Never arrived... Insisted and Asked 4 times the waiter ..never arrived .. The side gnocchi of potimarron were so sticky no-one could finish more than one. Mash potatoes was tasteless... I think they didn't put salt and pepper..
The service was ZERO except the young sommelier who advise us well and picked a nice bottle of chablis. There was 4 waiters taking care of us but never helped us or asked what i asked (lemon, some butter to help try the oyster )
Total bill for two 320 EUR and they offered us the oyster ...even without the oyster being charged.... The all thing is a massive rip off..we will never go again ...
Why a fish restaurant do not have any classic seafood platter Not even fresh oyster ?? No crab ?
No fresh seafood or platter of seafood on request Service is a joke except the young sommelier.
I would have paid 180e maximum if it was clean food...
Depiste the fantastic work of the decoration done by studio KO and the spirit of the chiltern fire house of London (made by them .. The déco can't save the total disaster of the place....
Surely the new menu wont help to make them survive long... Stop trying to be cool .. Just copy le duc in the plate... Tradition and solid seadfood... Rather trying the hype and fail totally .. No-one is going there for this....
I am sad for divellec...
Read moreWhat an incredible meal! This Michelin one-star restaurant absolutely delivered from start to finish. Here’s what we had: 4 Insigney oysters, clams gratinated with lemon thyme, red tuna tartare in ponzu sauce, sea bass carpaccio with green apple jelly, squid with garlic, parsley, and chorizo, sole meunière, and a spiny lobster smoked with rosemary. For dessert, we finished with a chocolate soufflé and chocolate mousse — both flawless.
Every dish was beautifully executed, and honestly, this place puts Le Bernardin in NYC to shame. Every time I dine in Paris, I’m reminded that French restaurants here simply operate on another level — the Michelin standards in France are just higher.
The service was excellent — attentive without hovering, and the atmosphere had that perfect casual elegance that makes fine dining in Paris so enjoyable. The lobster was a touch overcooked, but still very flavorful, and the sole meunière was absolute perfection — buttery, delicate, and melt-in-your-mouth good. All the raw dishes were impressively fresh and refined, and the desserts were rich and beautifully balanced.
We didn’t realize the spiny lobster was priced by weight because we didn't look at the prices...so when the bill came to about €1,200, we were a bit surprised — but after laughing it off and tasting the rice dish they made from the leftover lobster, it felt about right. Everything, down to the bread and butter, side vegetables, and mashed potatoes, was spot-on.
An unforgettable meal — refined yet full of personality. Next time I’m in Paris, I’ll...
Read more#82 in my Parisian Michelin Stars Challenge. One this Michelin star you wish there are more.
What’s interesting here? It s good and it’s a brasserie dedicated to the sea. I wish they were more Michelin Star like that. It’s elegant yet not oppressive. It’s flavorful yet simple. The service is at the right distance. Friendly enough but very respectful. The crowd although being mainly wealthy people from the surrounding (working or living), an epicurean tourist wouldn’t feel out of place. The design is made so you have few neighbors. The main thing here is that it’s really good. Not crazy haute cuisine. But just simply very good, so good in fact that you want to come back.
I could speak for hours about the Brandade or the soup, but I guess you should just come and try. Perfect spot to have a very long lunch.
Very solid one star (actually a top tiers brasserie).
Update 2022: My darling asked me for a nice brasserie for a girls dinner. My first instinct was Pavyllon, my second this one. I had nice feedback from both recommendations. I went back to try dinner with a friend. It does deliver. Just be aware of the à la carte prices. It’s not the only restaurant from this chef. Here the mandate seems to be « a great brasserie that, by the way, has a Michelin star ». You won’t feel the specific Michelin Star atmosphere, but more the good vibe of an upscale (and wealthy) brasserie. It’s definitely a...
