Reviews of interest

  • Thierry Richard (2012) “C’est sans aucun doute l’une des dix plus belles terrasses de Paris… Un surprenant menu du déjeuner, « 45 minutes – 45 € » pourrait même aller jusqu’à rendre cette table de luxe quasi accessible si les liquides n’avaient tôt fait de faire flamber l’addition.”
  • Emmanuel Rubin – Le Figaro (2011) “…ouverte, volubile, disposant à toute heure (ou presque) une belle série de recettes…”
  • Gilles Pudlowski (2011) “…un lieu d’exception, un coin de Paris ombragé d’arbres nombreux entre beaux et belles…un délicieux voyage.”
  • Alexander Lobrano (2011) ” a wonderful spelt risotto with finely shaved ribbons of squid and a bright lemony sauce, [was] a much happier example of Thierry Marx’s cooking than my beef…The bill for this meal was almost 200 Euros, a thumping sum that led me to some musings on what the ‘second’ restaurant in a luxury hotel should be.”
  • John Talbott (2011) “From the first telephone call to our exit we were impressed by the staff; very welcoming and speaking the language they heard diners speak…daurade japonaise, pigeon with a nice piece of foie gras, a lobster ravioli, and a calamari risotto.  All serviceable, but…not terribly good…”
