9.5/10The fish was all so fresh, and the sommelier suggested a great white wine to go with it.

10/10My wife and I have been visiting this restaurant for more than 10 years. It's always good and our go-to for fish dishes in Paris. The service from the manager and his team is excellent.

10/10Amazing restaurant. Great service and ambiance. Very classy without feeling stuffy. Food is perfectly cooked and seasoned with subtle flavors. Highly recommend for special occasion, business, or just a lovely lunch or dinner.

9.5/10Helen was outstanding. All of the food was perfectly prepared (the tuna appetizer with jalapeños and the Dover sole entree were particularly amazing) and everyone on the staff was amazing. It all made for a memorable evening. I only wish they had a menu written in English so we didn't have to torture our server, asking her to translate almost every dish on the menu for us. She was happy to help, but we still felt awkward asking.

10/10Our go-to restaurant when we travel to Paris. Food, wine and service is all of the highest class. At a time when so many restaurants have high staff turnover, it is lovely to be welcomed by Franck and his team each time we visit.

10/10The setting is elegant, classic, timeless and comfortable. The service is welcoming, well-honed and pleasurable with a helpful, knowledgeable but never overbearing sommelier. And the fish takes center stage served up in many ways that are creative without being overdone.

9/10We went for lunch and they were out of langoustine, scallops and mussels. Quite a disappointment. We had a number of fish dishes. The raw fish dishes were very good - both carpaccio and ceviche. The baby squid were cooked well but the texture was not as succulent as we had elsewhere. I ordered the turbot to be plain grilled and that was the wrong order as I could not taste the sweetness of the fish and there was no other flavor. Probably should have taken the turbot with the chef’s normal way of cooking. There were five or six pieces of bones that we picked out - not a big deal as we are used to fish with bones but still a bit surprised for Michelin one star restaurant. The wines recommended by staff went very well with our food and was priced very reasonably.

7/10This is our second visit to this restaurant. The first visit was very pleasant and the cuisine was excellent. The cuisine was excellent this time but unfortunately, the service was very, very, very slow. The staff was knowledgeable and pleasant but seemed oblivious to the fact that we were made to sit for a long time with no food service. Someone is not performing their job properly.

4.5/10Food flavors were bland and the presentation lacking. For a Michelin starred restaurant, more is expected. Service was not very friendly. Overall the experience was very average.

10/10Everything at Helen was wonderful. The service was perfect. The menu (we had lunch) allowed for a choice of selections from a la carte to a tasting menu. The suggested lunch menu was perfect for us and given the quality of the restaurant reasonable at 50 euro per person. The noise level was very good. We visiting Californians enjoyed the opportunity to watch French businessmen at work.

8/10Helen is an attractive restaurant with a menu that is the Holy Grail for seafood lovers, especially fish. The staff is gracious, well informed and speak near perfect English, tho' the menu is only in French. An English version would be useful given the long list of choices. The neighboring table had the tasting menu at 140 euro. It looked like the way to go and what I'd do on a return. The sole meuniere was excellent. I'd pass on the turbotin roti, which was bland in last night's prep. The tuna with yuzu was my choice for stand out dish.
