Le Pincemin

I made a reservation and went right at opening time. As soon as the restaurant door opened, people started coming in, and even though it was a weekday, many people came. So, I think reservations are essential. I ate a course cuisine, and the dishes served today were my favorites, so I was very satisfied and really delicious. All dishes are creative and well-balanced, adding to the flavor of the taste. So every dish was perfect for me. The staff were friendly and the ambience of the restaurant was nice.

Wonderful dining experience. The staff is professional, yet friendly and attentive. The food is daring and different. Traditional French meals are given a new and swanky version that surprises the tongue. Since details make all the difference, it’s worth mentioning that the chef Pincemin came to several tables, including ours and sent us a complimentary cognac, which made the experience personalized and memorable. The only thing “missing” is a Michelin star that I have no doubt will be coming very soon!

Perfect evening! We booked our table few weeks in advanced to celebrate my birthday. Upon arriving, our waiter Nolan (if I'm am not mistaken) greeted us warmly and through the evening made sure we will have a great time, while accommoding our special requests, alongside great recommendations for wine and food. Food was excellent besides some small hickup that they were very apologetic for and did the best to compensate our discomfort. Highly recommend this place, and especially the perfect waiter we had.

Wow - what an experience We were thrilled with our meal here. The food was exceptional....as was the service. There was so much delicate attention paid to the dishes....they were beautiful and delicious Each plate had so much layering to the flavors and textures. The amuse-bouche, the pork terrine, the cod, the apricot dessert.....even the house made rolls with homemade lemon butter....oh my gosh And I forgot to tell them my girlfriend is pescatarian and they accommodated her with two different dishes...with a smile. They were so sincerely nice to us I can't recommend this restaurant enough. Whether you're visiting the Versailles Palace or want to get out of Paris....this is a can't miss stop

Well located near the Château de Versailles, this modern gastronomic restaurant serves high quality and well presented & thought dishes. The discovery menu is really good value for money. 👌

A wonderful first evening at Xavier Pincemin's restaurant. We were there at the first evening after their holidays, so we could see how the team put in the effort to get everything on track. The food brings French cuisine with a contemporary touch. It was a delight. We will sure visit again!

Thank you very much for your hospitality. Service perfekt, polite, and it was delicious. I would come everyday for lunch if I would live in Versailles. Highly recommended.

I’m sure this lunch course is the best in France !!! I had a great experience Le Pincemin is one of the reasons you should visit France !
