"On the second floor of the tower I had a bucket-list experience: impeccable, attentive service and a tasting menu that pays homage to France’s finest ingredients, with cooking that’s firmly rooted in the classics, skillfully modernized, precisely executed, perfectly seasoned and complemented by bold yet refined sauces." - Caitlin Gunther

"I attended a private meal at Le Jules Verne, the two‑Michelin‑star restaurant inside the Eiffel Tower, which served as an exclusive culinary stop on a broker’s incentive trip." - Anna Silman
"A meal at the legendary Le Jules Verne can turn a Monday lunch, birthday, or anniversary into a memorable affair. It’s inside the Eiffel Tower, and to get here you’ll breeze up the private elevator and into one of three dining rooms tastefully decorated in shades of gray—the exquisite French food matches the Invalides and Sacré Coeur views. You’ll embark on a playful prix fixe meal featuring all the rich sauces and emulsions a spot of this caliber is pretty much obligated to serve. Expect truffles everywhere, including in a baked cheese that’s worth the €35 extra. There are five- and seven-course lunch and dinner tasting menus, but the move is the weekday €180, three-course lunch—more like eight with all the amuse-bouches, pre-desserts, and mignardises—served at a pace made for luxuriating." - emily monaco

"Perched on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, Le Jules Verne is a feat of technical ingenuity in more ways than one. First, you experience the engineering marvel of Paris’ most iconic tower up close, alongside breathtaking views from 380 feet above the city. Then comes the challenge of preparing One-MICHELIN-Starred fare in a kitchen with limited space and storage. The result is an ever-evolving menu — courtesy of Chef Frédéric Anton — that showcases creativity and seasonality at their finest." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Le Jules Verne inside the Eiffel Tower is no tourist trap. You’ll breeze up the private elevator on the west side and into one of three dining rooms tastefully decorated in shades of gray, bringing the Invalides and Sacré-Coeur views into full focus. The exquisite French food matches the views. It’s a playful, unstuffy prix fixe meal featuring all the rich sauces and emulsions a spot of this caliber is pretty much obligated to serve, balanced with touches of bitterness and acidity. Expect truffle everywhere, including in the cheese course—instead of the traditional gilded cart, you’ll get just one zhuzhed-up baked cheese that’s worth the €35 supplement. There are five- and seven-course tasting menus at lunch and dinner, but the move is the weekday €160, three-course lunch—more like eight, with all those amuse-bouches, pre-desserts, and mignardises—served at a pace made for luxuriating." - emily monaco, sophie friedman, sara lieberman
