    The service is not matched to its price. There are some bread crumbs on my table as I arrive. They provided the wine tasting to me when I was having the starters in my mouth. Furthermore, for one or two dishes, there is no brief introduction about how the dish was made.

    We are having a short trip to Paris, and what a wonderful introduction to French cuisine that Hestia offered! Especially the sauces. Very unique

    Such a pretty place with thoughtful details and an attentive staff. Our food was outstanding. I’m still dreaming about the Parmesan-crusted veal. Make a reservation; the room fills fast!

    Tables are too close to each other. The service was hasty and somewhat inexperienced.

    Amazing dinner at Hestia! The tasting menu was outstanding - each course was delicious! The service was excellent. The very nice sommelier helped us pick out a fantastic bottle of wine. All in all, a wonderful night.

    Lovely restaurant with delectable food and outstanding service. We extend our thanks to the staff, who were as kind and attentive as they were knowledgeable, and to the extremely talented chef who graciously accommodated my gluten-free diet (I have celiac disease). For dinner, we had celeriac in a risotto style and sea bass (me) and boar-filled tortellini and duck (my husband). For dessert we shared a roasted pear with vanilla cream and caramel ice cream. Everything, including the wine, was fabulous. We would return in a heartbeat. Highly recommend.

    We went for lunch on a Saturday. Everything was excellent, the food, the service, and the setting. Our French is a work in progress but, it mattered not at all, as everyone seemed fully bilingual. Highly recommend.

    Of all the fine dining restaurants I’ve been to Hestia stands out as one of the very best. There is no tasting menu was not just inventive and utterly delicious but perfectly judged so as not to be too heavy. There is no wines were a perfect match. And the service was superb, friendly and attentive without overdoing it. What a gem of a place.

    Hestia

    We would have liked to leave a tip for our waiter but there was no option to do that when paying by card, and we were cashless in Paris.

    We enjoyed our dinner at Hestia! The food, service and atmosphere were all great. Everyone spoke English, which was very helpful to us. Our wait staff was amazing and helped us in selecting a French wine that would go with our meals. Will definitely go back next time in the area and would highly recommend!

    Beautiful restaurant with exceptional food! The service is lovely and the presentation of the food was spectacular. We really enjoyed our meal.

    The Goddess Hestia would be proud. It truly lived up to the feel of hearth and home. The food was absolutely exceptional. However, it was the simple side dish of mashed potatoes that transported me back to my childhood eating with family during the holidays. Something I haven't felt in many years. All the stress built up from rushing around Paris melted away. On top of that, the staff were very kind and attentive. I very much would like to visit again in the future if there is an opportunity. Hopefully, I can dine in the lower floor next time. To all the staff at Hestia, have a happy new year! Merci beaucoup!

    We enjoyed New Year’s lunch at Hestia and were truly impressed. The food was exceptional, rich in flavor and beautifully prepared. The scallops, steak, and hazelnut caramel dessert were definite highlights. Sean provided excellent service, and we’re already looking forward to our next visit.

    What a wonderful lunch! Located in a walkable alley, Hestia had such a beautiful, classy façade and even lovely, subtle Christmas decor. The staff was so kind and attentive, going so far as to help with a wine suggestion, which ended up being the best wine I've ever had in my life. My partner had the veal, and I had one of the day's specials, which was a sirloin steak. The food was beyond incredible - so tender and delicious! Hestia is a MUST for anyone living in or visiting Paris.

    Visited the restaurant on a romantic trip to Paris. We celebrated our 30th anniversary at Hestia. We had a wonderful meal that was unique, interesting and most of all delicious. Thea service was very nice and attentive and they gave us the best table in the house. Thank you.
