We finally made it to Ralph’s for dinner with a good friend who lives in Paris. We don’t spend much time in Saint-Germain, but it’s a beautiful area worth exploring.
We started with cocktails, the Polo Punch, the French 173, and a Jardin Secret mocktail. All were well balanced and set the tone nicely.
For appetizers, we shared the lobster rolls (5/5). They came as four pieces, generously filled with minced lobster and just the right citrus acidity to cut through the richness of the buttered brioche bun. Flavorful and satisfying without being too heavy.
For mains, we all went with the burger, one of their specials (4/5). Cooked perfectly medium-rare, topped with cheddar, crispy bacon, lettuce, onions, pickles, and sauces. Every bite was excellent. Sides included perfectly crispy fries and a very tasty garlic-sautéed spinach.
Dessert was the walnut brownie (4.5/5) with ice cream and chocolate sauce. The walnuts gave it a great crunch, and the pairing with ice cream and sauce was spot-on.
The restaurant itself is cozy (bordering on cramped) and classy, with warm wood tones, art-lined walls, and a central fireplace that creates a welcoming atmosphere. Although the outdoor patio was closed due to rain, it looked like the perfect spot for a sunny lunch.
All in all, we left satisfied with the food, service, atmosphere, and the evening. Overall rating around 4/5
