About the restaurant

L'Orangerie is a veritable glass jewel, offering an unobstructed view of the famous Marble Courtyard. As night falls, the atmosphere flooding this glasshouse becomes intimate and magical: the perfect moment to enter the refined universe of this restaurant awarded with two Michelin stars.

Bold and creative, chef Alan Taudon has made the radical choice of a unique and responsible culinary signature, exclusively focused on plant-based and seafood. Showcasing inventiveness and modernity, reinterpreting the codes of French haute cuisine, this lover of sauces imagines delicate and subtle compositions carried by techniques that impress with their innovative character. A true ode to true and sincere taste, where each plate is a feat of lightness and concentration of aromas. A vegetable-based gastronomic experience conducive to a sensory escape, enhanced by delicate sweet bites signed by pastry chef Michael Bartocetti.

This was hands down the greatest culinary experience my husband and I have shared together in quite some time. Our servers were kind, knowledgeable, incredibly impressive with their attentiveness and truly eager to make our night special. The food was exquisite, a real artistically intentional offering that got better with each course. We will remember this night forever.

Cosy french typical canteen facing the famous Sacré Coeur basilica, serving inventive seasonal organic cuisine. In the evening, plates to share in a warm setting, with a breathtaking panoramic view over the rooftops of Paris ! During the week, different dishes every day, concocted by the chef. And on weekends, a delicious brunch menu to share (or not!)

Had a lovely meal on a Saturday night. We sat upstairs at 8:30pm and there was a DJ and good vibe. Quite loud if you want to have a proper conversation (assume the upstairs turns into a bit of a party?) so you might want to request downstairs. Our waiter Rudy was very accommodating and friendly so thanks again for making it a lovely evening! Good value for money and central spot too.
