Le Grand Café - 75008 Paris

Very well executed and tasty food in a beautiful setting. I must admit I was amazed by the quality of the meal. It is not cheap that’s fair but you get a very delicious meal in the newly renovated Grand Palais. Firstly, we were served yummy bread (2 types) with salted butter and also some radishes. What a great idea to start the meal. Then we had for starters the Comte and truffle soufflé and the girolles and poached eggs. Both were delicious. The sauce which came with the mushrooms/egg was absolutely delicious. For main, we both had steak with pepper sauce. The meat was cooked to perfection and the pepper sauce was very nice, it could be richer but still it was a lovely pepper sauce. We had fries and green beans for sides both portion were generous and very tasty. Finally, we had for dessert the chocolate tart which was just so delicious. A must try for chocolate lovers! And we had also the chouquettes filled with chantilly which was served with a rich chocolate sauce on the side. The cream was not overpowering and the dish was very well balanced. Overall, I was expected a restaurant where I would be able to enjoy the grand palais setting and have an average meal. I was wrong. The whole experience was great : setting, service and food. A must try while in Paris for an authentic and special meal.

Food: The food was excellent — we loved everything we ordered and the quality was spot on. Unfortunately, the kitchen forgot our salad and one of the mains, and we weren’t able to flag it as our waitstaff was quite busy. By the time we could, the lunch seating time was nearly up. Service: Our waitstaff was very sweet and welcoming. Although she was clearly stretched, she stayed kind and had a genuine smile throughout and even let us order dessert close to the end of our seating time, which we really appreciated. Atmosphere: Charming and pleasant vibe, though the 1.5-hour seating limit for lunch felt a bit rushed. Note on dress code & reservations: We had seen some reviews mentioning strict or selective entry, but we saw several guests in casual wear with backpacks being let in without issue — it seems as long as you have a reservation, you’re good. Overall, a great spot with amazing food — we’d happily come back, hopefully with more time to enjoy it fully.

The most amazing experience ever, here its not just about food which was amazing by the way , their tomato tartte was unbelievable , but also the atmosphere, the views and the service was to another level, we went to so many places in Paris but here was the only place we felt welcomed and cared for. You could just sit there and enjoy the amazing views, their drinks were also great. I can not recommend this place enough. If I ever come back to Paris this place is one of the main reasons.

Amazing experience. The food was very good. This place is one of the most beautiful terrasse in Paris. Service was exemplary and very warm.

Had a great time at Le Grand Cafe because of the vibe and decor, a must if you are visiting Paris. Food was okay, not expecting exceptional food here but the service was great!

Very good food and an amazing atmosphere, the place itself is beautiful. However, the service feels a bit average. The waiters seem unfocused and sometimes forgetful, which is the only reason I can’t give 5 stars.

My husband and I had a our best dining experience at Le Grand Cafe in Paris! The food was delicious! I loved the tomato tart and lamb chops. We sat on the terrace which is stunning and magical. There was a singing with a 3 piece band. Their song choices were perfect and she was divine. They took an already perfect night over the top. We sat in the bar after dinner to enjoy their performance. This is a magical restaurant and I can't wait to go back!

Beautiful restaurant & staff is super friendly and kind. The resto itself is so beautifully decorated, it is a pleasure to dine there. My favorite dish was the cucumber and feta salad, their french fries are also delicious, and especially the millesfeuilles!
