Loved this dining experience so much. Would dine here on the vibes alone! After much back and forth we settled on Epicure for our 15 year anniversary dinner. Our group of six was seated in the large beautiful dining room promptly upon our arrival.
3 star dining can sometimes feel uptight and stuffy but the service from the moment we got there was warm, engaging, fun and even a little silly.
For dinner, I appreciate that everyone at the table is able to choose a different tasting menu and specify aversions not just allergies. We had two vegetarian tasting menus and 4 regular tasting menus. The food was outstanding, especially the truffle courses. Be aware that this is a very long dinner. Unsure if this is the norm, but ours was 4 hours.
Wonderful spot to celebrate a special occasion!

We came to Epicure for our Valentine’s dinner, and the entire experience was nothing short of exceptional.
Prior to our visit, the restaurant reached out via email to carefully confirm our arrival time, dietary preferences, restrictions, and the occasion we were celebrating. This level of thoughtful preparation already set the tone before we even arrived.
Upon entering the restaurant, we were warmly welcomed and seated at a beautiful window table — a perfect setting for a special evening. What truly impressed us was that every staff member who greeted us addressed both my husband and me by name, creating an incredibly personal and memorable experience.
The cuisine was outstanding — refined, authentic French gastronomy executed at the highest level. Every dish reflected precision, balance, and elegance.
An unforgettable evening from start to finish. We will absolutely return on our next visit to Paris.

I was celebrating my 30th birthday alone, and I feel so fortunate that I chose Epicure for such a meaningful moment.
The food was exceptional—no further explanation needed. What struck me most was the perfect balance between the natural taste of the ingredients and the delicate flavors of the sauces. This balance is difficult to achieve, as in many other restaurants, I find that either the sauce overwhelms the ingredients or vice versa. The sole, in particular, stood out to me. Compared to more luxurious ingredients, the ability to transform a humble, familiar ingredient into something unexpectedly extraordinary is my personal benchmark for a truly great restaurant, and Epicure exceeded that standard.
But even more remarkable was the service. My first impression was of pure professionalism: excellent food recommendations, attentive yet perfectly calibrated service, both friendly and refined. However, as the meal progressed and I had more interactions with the staff, I discovered a genuinely warm and sincere side to their professionalism. I’m grateful to all the servers, but I must give special recognition to Ines, whose warmth and genuine care transformed my meal into an unforgettable celebration. When she learned I was celebrating my birthday, she went out of her way to create surprises and thoughtful touches throughout the lunch. She truly made my day. I was even invited to visit the kitchen, where despite being very busy, everyone greeted me with such warmth and kindness. This made Epicure feel real and personal to me, not just a renowned three-star restaurant, but a place with heart. I would definitely return and recommend it to my friends without doubt.
Now, as I read my menu copy as a keepsake, I keep returning to the wish Ines wrote on it: “Enjoy your life.” I think this simple phrase captures the essence of what all food lovers ultimately seek in a perfect restaurant.

Epicure is one of those restaurants you need to go at least once in your life to experience the excellence. I’ve been here 4 times and every time was different but just as good as the last.
The people who served us are so nice and took care of us. Matteo was helpful with understanding the menu and knowing what to order for drinks.
The bread and butter is the best in Paris.
This time we ordered a la carte. My favorite dishes were the Bresse chicken, langoustine, and lobster.

We had a lovely time here celebrating our anniversary. The food was delicious and most of the staff was lovely. However, a few strange things stood out that felt awkward and unnecessary for a restaurant at this level.
One was when my partner stepped away to use the restroom, his water had not yet been poured. When he returned, he reached for the bottle to serve himself. A staff member immediately intervened, saying, “Sir, please allow us!”, and she poured the water. Immediately afterward, she openly reprimanded the male colleague responsible for the oversight, directly in front of us. It was uncomfortable to witness.
The male colleague responsible for the water oversight was also Italian (or spoke it at least) and therefore constantly was speaking in Italian to my partner even though I had said I don’t speak any Italian. Later, he introduced another Italian colleague, but by the wrong name. Awkward.
Towards the end, I asked that same man if I could skip the cheese course. I had not realized there was a dedicated cheese course, and simply wanted to opt out after so many courses of rich food. This turned into an unnecessarily prolonged back and forth, with him insisting multiple times that it was “a small portion”, “light cheeses”, and that it would “be a shame not to eat it”. After declining four or five times with my friendly remarks, “I’m sure they’re great but I really can’t”, “I’m so full I don’t want to spoil the last courses”, and “You’re welcome to eat my serving of cheese (haha)” I finally had to say firmly, “I do not want to offend the chef, but I cannot eat a course of just cheese.” At that point, the discussion ended, but it should not have required that level of insistence. Even my partner said it was weirdly coercive/ take the hint already. To make matters worse, when the cheese course arrived, it was presented from a tableside trolley. Given that nothing had been measured and plated in advance, the repeated insistence felt completely avoidable. Just don’t serve me any slices of cheese off the giant table???? Come on.
The food was great and the plating and setting was beautiful. However, moments like these felt quite misaligned from what one expects from a three Michelin star experience.

My wife and I are having “First Lunch” of 2026 at Epicure which brings us tremendously happiness from all meals, services and ambience. Staff are active, polite and welcoming us a lot. Moreover providing me pink rose quietly for me to give to my wife. Can say “I shall return”

It was for my birthday, I noted it while reservation, they even have a question to ask what occasion is it so you decide to have the lunch here. Not even a slight little gesture to show they even care a bit to make their clients feel special, not even a card, a word nor a wish, nothing, then why did you ask ?? Everything is very correctly done to the 3 stars standard. Like a cold maniac perfectionist robot. The dishes have nothing to complain about , they are as fantastic as arts , great taste with amazing aesthetic. Courses are ritually served, like I said, nothing could go wrong because it was as precise as a cold robot. Servers are very friendly in the contrary , with warm greetings, humor and kindness. what’s wrong is definitely not from the servers, is from the management. I had feed my curiosity about this ancient chef Eric Frechon nowadays chef Arnaud Faye restaurant, that’s kind of it, nothing more to expect.

Everyone who can should go here at least once in their life. It should be a set piece for any Paris tour. At one level it is a traditional Michelin starred Parisian restaurant with the amazing food and service you would expect. But then it gives a nod to the reality that Paris is a tourist town and people do want to take photos and be a bit casual. It somehow pulls off the high end and the tourist without diminishing from either experience. The knack lies in setting the guests in seats like they were on stage and then having waiters who could easily be stars of imrov theatre. Its fun yet polished and superbly high class without being stuffy. All in all its the best of approachable Fench dining.
And then the kicker is a great wine program and really good sommeliers (yes plural).
I just can’t recommend it enough

Fantastic experience. Each item tasted complex yet balanced, and the presentations were so delicate.
The servers were attentive and kind. The sneak peek of the back and meeting the chef made it even more memorable ❣️

The food presentation and ambiance here are stunning. The service is spectacular too.
However, all the dishes were good, but none of them were memorable. Considering the price, would I revisit? it’s a 50-50 call.
