We just planned to get drinks and enjoy the view and it all went wrong. First when we arrived, they said that in order for us to be able to sit outside, we had to pay €60 per person and it would only include one glass of champagne. Then when we try to order drinks, they said we had to order a main course in order to be able to stay at the restaurant. This information was never specified when making the reservation nor in their confirmation email, they don’t disclaim it.
Café de l'Homme • Owner
Hello Manuela, We are very sorry to hear that your experience at Café de l'Homme did not live up to your expectations. We understand that there was some confusion about the price of the terrace and the minimum order required. During normal service hours and depending on availability, we do indeed ask for this. You are welcome to come to the restaurant just for a drink after regular service hours. In future, to avoid any confessions and for more information, please visit our website in the booking tab for the Before.After.Dinner offer. We do our best to provide all necessary information when booking, and will consider reviewing our communication to avoid such misunderstandings in the future. Your feedback is valuable and will enable us to improve our service. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again for an experience more in line with your expectations. Best regards, Café de l'Homme team.

The terrace was lovely with the best view in Paris; however, the cuisine disappointed. My main course of St. Pierre with an accompanying dish of beans was mediocre. Must one decide, either ambiance or food? Can’t one have both?
Café de l'Homme • Owner
Hello, We are delighted that you enjoyed the beautiful views from our terrace, but we are very sorry to hear that the food did not live up to your expectations. We strive to offer a combination of beautiful environment, exceptional food and a pleasant atmosphere. It is disappointing to hear that we did not live up to your expectations during your visit. We have noted your comments on the wild Saint Pierre cooked meunière style and will pass them on to the Chef for his consideration. We hope you will give us another chance to provide you with a more balanced experience in the future. Best regards, Café de l'Homme Team.

The price was very high for the quality of the food. Food was very poor quality, also to sit in the terrace they charge you 62€ per person a part from what you order. Service was not according to the price, the table was near the kitchen and they had the door open…
Café de l'Homme • Owner
Hello, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry to hear that your visit did not live up to your expectations. Please note that the 60 euros you mention includes a placement on the terrace accompanied by a glass of Charles Heidsieck brut Champagne with a guaranteed view of the Eiffel tower. We understand that this supplement (not obligatory to enjoy the restaurant) may not be suitable for all our guests. Please note that the service you received does not reflect the quality of service usually offered. Concerning the quality of the food, the Chef makes it a point of honour to use fresh, seasonal and French products in order to guarantee the best possible quality. We look forward to welcoming you back and providing you with a more satisfying experience. Best regards, Café de l'Homme team.

The hostes mention at the begining that for 6 euros more per head you are included in the terraze plan. I came with my three sons and also they clearly heard 6 euros. At the end the bill was 60 euros per person. That was a very disgusting suprise.
Café de l'Homme • Owner
Hello Julio, We are sorry to hear that your experience at Café de l'Homme did not live up to your expectations. There may have been some confusion regarding the cost of the supplement. The charge for access to our terrace is indeed 60 euros per person, including a glass of champagne, and we endeavour to communicate this clearly to all our guests on arrival. We sincerely regret any misunderstanding or discomfort this may have caused. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again. Best regards, Café de l'Homme team.

Food average. Service slow. For better view you have to pay extra, if not, the view was partial. The price was very high considering the quality of the food/service. I am sure there are a lot better options to have dinner near the tower.

Just the perfect place for dinner with the a spectacular view of the Eiffel Tower. I was celebrating my birthday and the staff was super friendly and generous enough to give me the best table they could. Being a vegetarian, I had quite a few options to eat. The truffle pasta was my favorite. Their red pasta was really good too. My server was super good and made drinks according to our choice of alcohol. I would definitely recommend to visit this restaurant for a perfect date night.

From the moment you walk in, you are greeted with excellent customer service. Our waiter Nadeem (I may have that incorrect) could not do enough for us. He knew the entire menu inside and out, recommended different wines with different dishes, the whole experience was amazing. Plus you get to look at the Eiffel Tower lit up at night. Everything was much more than we expected! Thank you all

Extremely nice ambience and one of the nicest view of the eiffel tower from restos! The statue on the terrace makes the view uniquely beautiful. Truffle macaroni and slow-cooked beef were absolutely majestic — must pick! Overall very good value for the food and view, bathroom was very clean and aesthetic too.

I came to Paris just for lunch. I wanted somewhere that had an amazing view of the Eiffle Tower and good food and this gem didn't disappoint. The staff where exceptional and friendly. The food was good but the service is what made it for me. This is the perfect place to have lunch or dinner. I can't wait to come back.

Romain was my main server and he was great, very attentive to me and made my experience so lovely. He even took pictures of me with the Eiffel Tower background. The food was good, i feel portion size may be a bit better with the price point but apart from that it tasted nice. The cocktails! Whoever the maker was 10/10, the best pornstar martini, considering it wasn’t on the menu it was fabulously made. The other waiters were very lovely and made my time special.

We are visiting Paris from Chicago and came to enjoy the view from the terrace but unfortunately it was closed due to the weather. Still, we had an amazing view of the Eiffel Tower from inside the restaurant and Manny took us out there to get photos so we still got really nice photos. He was an amazing server with a kind, outgoing personality. The food was amazing and the wine list endless! Highly recommend!

Sat us at a table with a block view. A table opened and I ask to change, a waiter went and ask the front hostess and they said yes. The waiter and waitress in the patio said no, it’s a $150 charge per person because it’s Fashion Week. Whatever! Same waiter kept using his cell to text. We weren’t served until half an hour later, not even water. It was u til I stoped the hostess and asked for a different waiter , he overheard me and came to take our order. He saying he was already coming . I told him I had been seating for 30minutes watching saw him walk by and texting. He denied it. I told him I had multiple pictures. He then said sorry and took our order. Couple next to us shared the same bad service story from this waiter. Needless to say, it ruined our anniversary dinner.

After having waited for our reservation to be confirmed, we got a note that we were good to go for 8 people on a Monday night at 8:30PM. Only to receive a voice message that because we were 8 people, we were forced to take a fixed 3 course meal for 190 euros. No mention of that on the reservation site more the email confirmation. I called 3 times during the day to try to speak to someone in charge and no one was available… We chose to go give our money elsewhere in Paris. To bad this place became such miss managed as my family use to own it in the 1980’s and was THE PLACE in Paris.

The restaurant is beautiful and has a great view of the Eiffel Tower. Our waiter was pleasant and service was good. It was a bit frustrating the terrace was not open on the day, which was where I was looking forward to be seated. Food was quite good, especially the artichoke appetizer. Wine was also very good. I just think all in all it's overpriced for what it offers, so, even though I liked it, it's not a place I would come back.

Came 10 mins earlier and they didnt let any of us in. And then its ok for them to keep us wait for another 10-15mins because the restaurant was not ready. Thats not class. We were seated on a table that near the staff's walkway, so the whole meal was interupted by them walking by, carrying food, standing there talking, etc. We were not comfortable with that because the restaurant was not full and they could totally put us in a better position but no, they kept disturbing our dinner. Food quality wise, portion is rather small compared to what we typically have in Europe but being an Asian we found it ok. But the fries which comes with the beef was too soft, and the sauce is salty as well. We do find the dessert is tasty. We only visited this place so that my friend can have his birthday dinner with an Eiffel view, but we wont come back, and we dont think the money is well spent either.
