Restaurant H

Perfect evening! Restaurant “H” is a perfect restaurant for a romantic evening. The waiter and waitress were lovely and very courteous. The food was excellent and the tastes were refreshing and excellent. We love restaurants with dishes like this. The restaurant is small, and was fully booked. I think we were lucky that someone cancelled. We were called after booking to ask for possible allergies (and probably to check if we were serious). We were very happy to be able to attend. We could choose for 5 or 7 courses (we took 5). With the amuse and small tasteful side dishes in between it was just perfect. Our compliments to the chef. We will return here.

Incredible dinner at the Restaurant H. Had the chance to meet M. Hubert Duchenne who was a very humble gentleman. Every plate was cooked to perfection and the use of uncommon ingredients/spices to recreate more familial flavours was an absolute gem of a touch. The dinning room attendants carefully explained the meals and the wines of the accord and were very warm and welcoming.

Fantastic, Michelin Star restaurant, tucked away down an unassuming street. We opted for the 5 course meal with wine pairing. Every dish and paired wine was perfect. From service to atmosphere and everything in-between, Restaurant H was perfect. I especially loved the pre and post dessert. Reservations open online, up to one week in advance. Pay attention to your phone/email during that time; they checked in with us multiple times to confirm our reservation. For two, we spent about 340€. I'd do it again without hesitation.

We took the menu en 5 temps for 95€ per person. The quantity of the dishes was quite small, yet it was compensated by the complexity of ingredients per dish. I would say 3 to 4 ingredients per dish. Some opportunities: 1. increase the quantity of the dishes. 2. as the concept has no menu, it would be nice to have a written copy of the menu after the plats has been served because it gives more awareness for the guests to actually appreciate more the dish. 3. The service can be improved 4. Good selection of the wine

If you are reading this review and trying to decide which Michelin starred restaurant you must eat dinner at whilst in Paris, then look no further. This is the ONE. Make a reservation and treat yourself to seven courses with wine pairing. You will have no regrets. You will be entertained by the cheeky, but professional, service. You will enjoy divine and imaginative cuisine and stumble back to your hotel tipsy, with a full belly and a smile on your face. Thank you, Chef and team, for a magical night! 🙏🏼👏🏼🥂❤️🌟

My sister and I chose Restaurant H as our "nice dinner" for our Paris trip and this meal totally exceeded our expectations! Every course was delicious, creative, and beautiful. No matter how full I was, the next course that was brought out was my "new favorite." We got the 7 course meal with the wine pairing and it was very worth it. The service was also incredible and we truly had such a wonderful time here.

Amazing food experience in the home of Michelin guide - Paris. Everything was well balanced and the menu for my pregnant wife was slightly modified to fit her needs, exactly as requested by us. Thank you for the evening!

The restaurant is small which made for an intimate dining experience. The staff were so sweet to our kids and even had a little fun with my husband and the wine pairings. It was cool to see the chef working just behind us. Very fresh! Very delicious! Would highly recommend!

Food and service exceptional & fun! I had the wine pairing which was perfect. Came Feb 2023 w/ hubby & cousin who appreciate good cuisine, but not foodies like me, enjoyed their experience too! Highly recommend. 1st Michelin experience in Paris didn't disappoint at all.

Such a low key, elegant but cozy Michelin starred restaurant with open kitchen. Limited tables of course, so you have to make the reservation ahead of time (we did this a few weeks prior to our visit). Their set menu (aka surprise menu) was definitely reasonably priced, €105 for 7 courses and €85 for 5 courses. Love the combination of the ingredients, very creative while well balanced from both taste and texture perspectives. The service was attentive, the waiter specifically asked us if any dietary restrictions and replaced the dish with some other ingredients for my friend, he provided a very detailed introduction of each course and managed the pace of serving the course very well. Highly recommended.

One of the best meals of my life. I went there with my wife for our wedding anniversary while in Paris. We did the 7 course meal, and I took it with the wine pairing. The food was impeccable and the staff was charming, engaged, and knowledgeable. My one critique would be the wine pairing. I am not a sommelier but do have a taste for fine wine, and my pallet leans toward red. The pairings leaned heavily toward white with a course with vermouth and a course with sake. On top of it all, the price was very reasonable, and if I lived in Paris I would frequent Restaurant H for special occasions, and I would say if you are visiting I would make the time to visit.

As promised, I returned to Restaurant H, and what a difference a year makes! Because I have delusions of grandeur, there's a part of me that says the management of Restaurant H read my review and altered the personality of the restaurant. Whatever the cause, Restaurant H is now friendly, warm, engaging, and the food is even better. Restaurant H is deserving of two or three stars at this point. Jean-Philippe has taken over the role as sommelier and captain at Restaurant H, and his charisma and charm permeate the room. It is like night and day from the last time we dined at Restaurant H. The food. The food. The food. This chef needs to hire a public relations team, because his culinary skill is on par with the masters of French cuisine. Hey, I have been dining at great restaurants for decades. It isn't fun getting old in the least, but age does provide a great foundation for evaluative analysis. I know restaurants! Restaurant H is one of the best in Paris. This was the set menu: Amuse-bouche: Lemon and trout eggs tartelette, Greek yogurt and smoked eel cracker and potato crisps with beets ketchup. Entrée 1: Spinach reduction, cèpe cream and praliné; green coffee roasted cèpe. Entrée 2: Sea scallops confit in beurre noisette, céleri purée and fried celeri; brown butter jus. Poisson: Line caught cod ballotine cooked low temperature, Jerusalem artichoke purée and crisps, bouillon shrimps and flamed Jerusalem artichoke. Trou normand: Granny Smith apple sorbet, Ardberg 10years foam. Viande: Black onyx beef filet cooked by the barbecue, sweet onion cream, burnt bread crumble and meat jus. Pré dessert: Marinated grapes with vermouth, bernache sorbet, grape skin and white grape siphon. Dessert: Madagascar vanilla mousse, confit lemon, kalamansi sorbet and " gâteau feuilleté It was incredible. This, for 90 Euros per person. Are you kidding me!!! The scallops and cod were divine, and I don't use that word! When it Paris, you must dine at Restaurant H. Listen to me. At the end of our meal, Jean-Philippe asked if we want to meet the chef. I was astonished. This was the chef who was so distant the last time. Every table was brought up to the open window to meet the artist creating this incredible food. What a difference a year makes.

Best meal ever. Friendly staff and knowledgeable wine pairings. The food was phenomenal- they will definitely get a second star soon!

Restaurant H finished up a lifetime worth of fine dining at world renowned restaurants with a bang! My wife and I visited Paris for our honeymoon and were excited to try out the michelin lunches. Restaurant H, my yelp friends, is a place you can't afford to miss out. We came here during lunch, and despite our tardiness, the staff were incredibly helpful (bilingual) and sat us down without any chastising. I really loved the menu options listed on the metal menus and politely declined from the extra truffle experience. I particularly loved the chef's take on all of the mushroom dishes, and was delighted to be served two different styles of duck in very generous portions. I will mention that restaurant H is a little bit harder to find and I'd recommend downloading google maps onto your phone before you set out on this culinary adventure. The chef is also super cool and very amicable.

I've truly peaked. This has been the most intense culinary experience of my life. Everything we ate was pure art, and I can't even identify half the ingredients. We got the 5 course set menu for 70 euros a person, but it actually turned into like 9 courses. 1: Potato crisps, smoked eel cracker, lemon tarts, presented like art. Great starter with a variety of different flavors and textures that all balance and complement each other. 2: Freshly roasted mushroom on top of a spinach reduction with mushroom cream. The mushroom comes out sizzling hot and tops off an amazingly melange of spinach/mushroom underneath. The umami flavor is brought out so strongly that I find it hard to believe this dish didn't have meat. It was that intensely rich. 3: Scallops with celery puree, topped with a fantastic sauce. Usually, I don't like scallops, but it was merely the delivery vehicle for all of the flavors in the sauce and puree. 4: Cod with artichoke crisps and shrimp puree. The cod doesn't taste like much by itself, but once again it is used ingeniously as a carrier for the amazing sauce in which it is steeped. The crisps add the texture balance to round out the dish. 5: Whisky foam topping a green apple sorbet. Super intense flavors and very unique, unlike anything I've tasted before. The whisky foam has a strong alcoholic taste while the apple sorbet is intensely sour, yet the two of them combined produced such a complex and interesting taste. 6: Steak, seared to perfection and topped with an amazing sauce. One of my favorite courses tonight. 7: Sorbet, grapes, and grape skin. A very interesting dessert course that my small brain cannot even begin to completely analyze. 8: Crisp wafer atop vanilla mousse. Vanilla mousse is amazingly rich and sweet, and the wafer gave it a nice crunch. 9: Assorted chocolate balls (some caffeinated), like Lindor chocolates except 10x better. Filled with chocolatey cream inside. We finished it off with caramels, which looked like they were made in-house and were the best I've ever had. They were salted just the right amount to bring out all the flavors, and melted in my mouth. I'm sorry if I sound like a plebeian; I am not used to fine dining at all. But everything tonight was fantastic. Every dish was so carefully thought out and balanced. Every flavor had a purpose and a balance. Every piece of solid food was a vessel for the underlying sauces and flavors. Our waiters were super helpful, explaining each dish and carrying out each part of the courses meticulously. It felt like an intensely personal experience, as if we were invited into the kitchen of a close friend (who also happens to be a genius chef). So this is what Michelin starred fine dining is like, huh...? A perfect culinary experience with very devoted staff and passionate chefs.

This place is a total hoax. I made a reservation here over a month in advance to ensure getting in and my whole party was extremely excited as it was our last night in Paris. We showed up 5 minutes early for our reservation for 4 people on a Saturday night and were met by the manager who told us our reservation was "for the waiting list". Even after I showed him a confirmation email and seeing a table for 4 set for a reserved table, he still turned us away I am assuming because we were 4 young American men. This was extremely disappointing as it was Saturday night and all other restaurants in the area were booked with reservations. Needless to say, this place is run by jerks and needs to figure out its reservation system as it really ruined our evening and honestly the end of our trip.

First of all i would like to say that this is, as of now, my favorite restaurant in the world. Plain and simple. I was browsing all the one Michelin star restaurants in Paris and i was using a combination of the Michelin Guide, Google and Tripadvisor. After a somewhat lenghty deliberation i decided to book Restaurant H. I am very glad i did. The welcome was warm and professional, we vere seated at the table in a small but very intimate dining area. The restaurant has only 7-8 tables so this contibutes to the cozy feeling. We chosed the 7 course menu without the wine pairings. Normally when you go to a Michein Star restaurant you end up liking 3 or 4 out of 7 courses, maybe loving one or hating one but here, me and my wife, we LOVED every single bite. It was exceptional, well balanced, tasty, daring and succeding with flying colors in all of them. 10/10, easy. And then there was the personal, that made us feel at home and at ease. They made the night a delight. Please, just please ignore the bad rewievs, i honestly have no ideea if they dined in the same restaurant as us. Last but not least we got a chance to meet the chef, a genuine, modest guy who was glad and happy that we enjoyed his fabulous work of art. A sincere thank you to all at Restaurant H. Thank you for the best dinner we ever had. Kind regards, Radu and Anca.

We adored our dining experience in September at Restaurant H. The food was fabulous and beautifully presented and the two young men serving were delightful, funny but professional. We had the 5 course menu with wine pairings and it was plenty for us (we are in our 60's and can't eat as much as when we were younger). The chef was charming and modest, the atmosphere very comfortable and causal. It was our favorite Paris dinner this trip!

Food is excellent. Wine pairing is excellent. Wine list is excellent. Service is excellent. Price is reasonable. What more can i say. Love it and wish they were in nyc.

We just left the Restaurant H after a 2+hour meal. We selected the 7 course meal and are glad that we did. I won't begin to describe each course because it would take too long. Each course was an amazing combination of textures flavors and temperature which was then contrasted with or balanced by the next course. When we made the reservation, we were a little worried about the five or seven course fixed menu but were swayed by the reviews. We are glad that we listened to the reviews. Our meal was fantastic and the service was excellent. This young chef has a bright future. We have paid much more for a meal and experienced much less. I would encourage you to plan ahead and make your reservation at Restaurant H

Wow! This resto is amazing. Took a chance and booked a reservation for my birthday. We were glad we did. From the first (of many!) amuse-bouche to the final bite of dessert, every course was fantastic. The presentation was very attractive and every dish was cooked to perfection. Service was attentive and friendly. Decor is what you'd want to find in a small space. All in all, one of the best meals I've ever had! I look forward to our next visit to see what Hubert will create for our dining pleasure.
