L'Arôme

We had a wonderful dinner in this 1-star michelin restaurant. We chose the standard option, and as a main menu, I chose veal. The meal began with an array of appetizers that showcased the chef's creativity and skill. Each dish was beautifully plated, with flavors that harmonized and delighted the palate. The main courses (veal) were equally stunning—perfectly cooked proteins paired with imaginative sides and sauces that elevated the experience to something truly extraordinary. However, the dessert course was where the otherwise perfect evening faltered. While the presentation was impeccable, the flavors and textures didn’t quite match the high bar set by the preceding courses. The dessert lacked the complexity and balance I had come to expect throughout the meal, feeling a bit uninspired compared to the rest of the menu. Despite this minor setback, it delivers an outstanding dining experience worthy of its Michelin star. It’s a destination I’d wholeheartedly recommend for anyone seeking a memorable culinary adventure, though perhaps with slightly tempered expectations for the final course.

Dinner with friends and everyone at the dinner enjoyed their meal. Presentations were exceptional. Service was impeccable. We will be back.

One of the best meals I've ever eaten. The service was impeccable. Each bite of food was absolutely delicious.

This was my newly wed wife and I first ever trip to Paris. We wanted to celebrate and eat at a fine dining establishment. We were recommended this restaurant and it did not disappoint. The service was amazing. From the beginning it felt like they tried to connect with us and ask questions about us. But the reason to stay was for the food. My wife loved the food so much she almost teared up she said. This was an amazing experience and honestly worth every dollar for the food and service.

Great restaurant! We enjoyed the food, the atmosphere and the service. We took the 175 signature menu with dietary adjustments (pescatarians) and each dish was absolutely delicious. Definitely deserves a second Michelin star.

Creative, unpretentious, delicious. High class service and setting with the social atmosphere of your favorite mom and pop restaurant. The chef personally greeted me several times, invited me and others to sit and chat over wine, and clearly took pride in his work. Made a reservation for 1 with little notice and had no issues. There are hundreds of great restaurants in Paris, but you have to choose one. Stop looking and just go here, you won't find a better experience.

One of the best restaurant in Paris. From the beginning till the end everything was just perfect. The restaurant is relatively small but super cozy with a kitchen view. The service was perfect, with real professionals that make the experience even better. We went for lunch and ordered the lunch menu. Price are really decent for a Michelin star restaurant. The cheese platter was fabulous, each meals were extremely tasty and beautifully served. Great place, worth every cents !

Amazing! This is the word to describe this experience. When we arrived, the owner came to our table and with a big smile explained all the details of the menu to us. The menu changes every day, and normally you have tw options for starters, two options for main course and two options for the dessert. All the dishes we had were perfect! Drinks were also very good! Staff was very nice and kind all the time. We really enjoyed this place.

We are visitors to Paris and we visit pretty much every other year if not more. The city is known for its gastronomy and we have tried all sorts of food in the City of Lights from cafes to 3 Michelin stars. This one is up there with the stars and I'm surprised it hasn't got one. The food from start to finish was immaculately prepared. We were fortunate enough to get a table next to the kitchen and literally every single plate that was sent out was inspected by the Head Chef. In fact he played some of our courses himself. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and bursting with flavor. Merci chef and I look forward to seeing your many accomplishments in the future

Delicious! Decided to dine here while in Paris for a party of one. Booked through the website a day in advance, as it was close to my hotel, and got a reservation. The food, service and ambiance is definitely Michelin star. What a great find? I just wish I spoke French as all the other patrons are French speaking. A must try near Champs! Bon Apetit!

Absolutely fantastic. This is a restaurant that you have to go to if you are visiting and want amazing food. While it is on the expensive side ($$$$) it is a fantastic restaurant that I highly recommend. We started out with an absolutely fantastic rice/crab/avocado cake. This may sound like a weird combination but it is absolutely amazing. The texture on it was perfect and went down smoothly, but it was far from slimy. Next we got delivered a soup. The broth was Japanese style, almost like what the broth tastes like on a miso soup, it also contained potstickers and crab. This soup was absolutely amazing the flavors worked very well together and I highly recommend it. As our 1st main course we got scallops along with black truffles. The scallops were cooked very well and they were very flavorful. Although the black truffles seemed to work against the dish, they were earthy and didn't taste like much and instead worked towards a taste that was never achieved. A real shame because the rest of the meal was amazing. The 2nd main course was weird. Ok don't get me wrong it was amazing, but the bar was so set so high that this felt like a week finisher, tasty? Yes but not nearly as tasty or creative as the other dishes. The experience of l'arome is not one to be ignored. The restaurant is bold and it is one of the best meals I've had in a long time.

I went twice to this incredible Michelin-starred restaurant. My husband and I were blown-away by the creative and exquisite starters, entrees, and desserts. The price of the prix fixe menu is a deal given the high quality and innovation you get. The service was awesome. There are two super places we are striving to go to each time we are in Paris: L'Arome and L'Atelier de Joel Robluchon on the Champs-Elysees Avenue...

Small, cozy and classy atmosphere, creative food by the chef. Very friensly ans helpful staff. If you have the chance, highly recommend. The owner and chef are both at the restaurant, they will come by your table to say hi. meet them and tell them about your experience.

What a magical place. The imagination coming from that kitchen to your table is so creative that it make Versailles look like a farmhouse. I did the wine pairings and smiled about the selections. The chef greeted us at our table and was genuinely loving and caring of his guests. I'd have to give L'Arome a high in the 90s grade!

I found out about this place through a recommendation but was sadly, disappointed. Not to say that the food was not good, but at the same time, it was not amazing. And likewise, the $. Anyway, we visited L'Arome a few days before end of the year for a lunch date and were met with a cordial staff and contemporary yet cosy environment. Upon our first impressions of the place, we were excited and looking forward to the lunch and went with the pre-fixe dejeuner course. This is how it went: Amuse bouche: Single flash fried prawn with a foamy lime dipping sauce Starter: Crab, avocado and japanese rice cake (Husband had their foie gras terrine) Main: Sea bass over a bed of stir-fried greens (Husband had their Iberico porkloin) 3 plates later and a bottle of sparkling water to share (note: no alcohol, coffee/tea, dessert, petit fours, etc) - our tab came to just under 150 euros (69 euro pp ++) for the both of us. Considering the execution was nothing particular and pre-fixe menu only had 2 courses (+amuse bouche) - we were very underwhelmed. That said, if you are looking for a better value and true french-fare meal, you had better look elsewhere. http://www.larome.fr/Cuisine/13

this was literally one of my favorite meals of my life. from the elegant surroundings to the exceptional service (surprisingly warm for a fancy schmancy place), you already feel like it's worth the money. of course, we did the chef's tasting menu &, in this case, it was all the best things on the menu (i'm looking at you, gary danko!). while, of course, everything was delicious, what surprised us the most was how light & unfussy the food was. i mean, clearly there is some serious technique involved but nothing was laden down with heavy sauces so we left there satisfied, not uncomfortable. the other notable things: wine pairings were excellent cohesion of the menu - a variety of flavors that progressed & complemented each other. i love me a cheese trolley!

Beware the cheese scam! We had a nice dinner at this restaurant. Simple plain ambiance. Nice staff. Very imaginative and good food. Unusual format- a fixed price 109 Euro menu where you pick only the main course and chef chooses all the rest- starters, appetizers, deserts etc. After the main course a waiter came around with a cheese tray. We were polite and each had two small tastes. When we got the bill, they had added 20 Euro each for the cheese! We had no idea and were not told the cheese was extra or how much. So our cost was up 15% for two small tastes of cheese! Excellent food but overpriced and the cheese is a scam. Go elsewhere.

Wonderfully eccentric and innovative. Quiet, small, tables well-spaced, attentive wait staff. Dishes are excellent.

A few years ago I visited Paris with my wife and while we went to many beautiful restaurants and cafes we never found the 5star "must go here " recommendation. That changed, by chance, when I visited Paris for business in May. L'AROME is a great resturant. The atmosphere, service and food as good as I have ever experienced. Dinning with a business associate (ok L'AROME is a bit too romantic for that, next time I bring my wife) we both ordered off a fixed menu. This allows you to order an entree from an in season menu while the chef picks three small plate starters as a match to your meal. The pace of the service and taste were perfectly matched. I had the John Dory with the in season morels. It was for me an unusual order but one that left me thinking about how to get back to Paris for more. When leaving we met both the chef and owner. As is the case with most great Resturant's their enthusiasm and passion is what makes the difference.

took mon avocat to lunch after having sorted a tenant-from-hell matter. what a find (his). small dining room is elegant, the prix fixe menu of modern classics more than honest for this level of quality, service faultless. rather busy on a random weekday, he runs into associates and i an art gallerist friend in the quartier. seemed as though i was finally let in on a secret spot.

Didn't realize international was on Yelp. If you are in Paris this is a must go location. The food was outstanding and I would put it on par with the finest locations in Chicago and New York. We did the tasting menu with wine pairing and it was absolutely incredible. Best pairing of wine to food I have had. The dishes were intricate and executed perfectly, outstanding service, and excellent cheese selection for the finish, a simple but well done decor. Top rated dinner for me. This was expensive but not over the top, looking at about $600 all in with the brutal exchange rate.

I came to the restaurant on faith based on a few recommendations and I was not disappointed! I hosted a large dinner party - 23 people! - and EVERYONE had an amazing time! The service was fantastic, especially given the fact that my group didn't know French and took awhile to order drinks etc. (FYI - for a large group we ordered our food one week in advance....not sure if this is standard or not.). The wild pig was absolutely amazing!!!!! We couldn't say enough about it. So tender and flavorful. If this is on the menu I'd highly recommend it! The warm pistachio soufflé was light and tasty. The presentation of every dish was beautiful as well. I can see this being a great spot for a special dinner. The bill was quite large - but I would do it all over again because the food and overall experience was fantastic.

Six of us enjoyed what was one of the finest dining experiences of our week in Paris. We chose the six course fixed meal for the table and it was superb. The sommelier paired the wines to each course and the choices couldn't have been better. L'arome is one of Paris' epicurean highlights. Expensive and worth every cent! Service was beyond excellent and the owner visited our table prior to the meal and explained the intricacies of the courses. Truffles are at their best in late February. A day later and I'm still enjoying the experience.
