Critique gastronomique (2012) “Le(s) plus : Je ne connais pas de restaurant deux étoiles proposant un tel rapport qualité prix y compris les samedis et dimanches. Le(s) moins : L’absence de lumière du jour et les couleurs sombres ; les plats du menu sont très classiques aussi.”
Patricia Wells (2011) “the bright red and black space is already full of glittery Las Vegas-style drama. But the real scene is what’s on the plate and what happens to your palate with each pleasurable bite… [a] specialty not to be ignored is the penetrating bite of smooth and pungent foie gras set in a dense port jelly, topped with a soothing Parmesan cream. Mouthfilling, intense, unforgettable..”
François Simon (2010) “…on retrouvera la percussion de la Rive Gauche avec sans doute une gentille différence de clientèle…”
Our first night in Paris we dropped our bags and headed over to L’Atelier Etoile. Every single dish we ordered was mouth-watering and beyond what our tastebuds could have anticipated. Have Les Haricots Verts Salade and the Panna Cotta Peche bien sur!
