Talos — Restaurant in Paris

We were fooled by the 4.5 Google rating they have.

This restaurant needs to be improved in several aspects if want to survive this very competitive culinary segment in Paris. I'm going to leave the points one by one to you.

1- First there's no WiFi. You're in the most touristy city on earth. Tourists from all around the world, many like us have no local cellphone carriers. How's this possible? Not having WiFi 😳

2- The menu with the prices updated (higher) is in French only. Something we learned about only after placing the order with the in-English menu. Yes, they told us that AFTER placing the order. I don't know if using the word dishonesty but this is pretty close to it.

3- The "orange" juice smells, tastes, and has the consistency of Mango 🥭 juice.

4- The people we saw cooking they don't seem to be Greek. The Greek were like bosses sitting and talking in a table more like giving indications to the ones cooking which again they didn't look Greeks at all.

5- The only waiter is not properly dressed as a waiter and is almost never available. He disappeared for several minutes some times. And this gentleman lacks of manners, the proper manners you should use when dealing with customers.

6- We asked for two grilled swordfish and one slovaky (my apologies for the pronunciation) and we received the fishes and not the slovaky.

7- Finally, the fish, that one you see in the photo in this review, was kinda raw.

Only the decoration is something I looked good.

I love Greece and wherever I go I try to go always to Greek restaurants. In my opinion is one of the best cuisines in the world.

Unfortunately we've had to leave this rare negative review to alert potential victims and also, why not, to make them improve the service.

In conclusion, I wouldn't recommend...

The inhabitants of the island of Crete are known for having one of the longest life expectancies in the world. If you’re feeling bogged down by heavy French food floating in creamy sauces, come to this Cretan restaurant which cooks everything in their own extra virgin olive oil (grown on their estate back in Crete) and features lots of healthy options (broiled fish, sautéed greens, succulent salads, dips and simply grilled meats). If you stick to their prix-fixe dinner or lunch menu, it can be a good value. You can also try some good country-style Cretan and Greek wines. They also sell their...

I took out one star for the cold reception at the restaurant, even if after the service was correct. They lost another star because of the quality of their bread (cold commum baguette, far from the good greec bread that I expected). The last star was lost because the manager didn't want to propose the night menu only because the starter was not in the list (but the starter I choose was less expensive!!!). Not a good commercial as I would also expected. Even though, they have good food, good wine and a...
