    10/10

    Delicious food, very polite and solicitous waiting staff able to converse in multiple languages but not intrusive. We do not eat meat (there was no vegetarian only main menu item) but we do eat fish and shellfish and the beetroot and prawn starters were both exquisite. The fish came with an aioli that was delicious and was then surrounded by a smooth fish soup, very tasty. The scallops were perfectly cooked and matched with a jerusalem artichoke sauce that went interestingly without overriding the scallops. All very nicely presented. Faultless. Dessert was amazing - the mango shortbread was intensely tasty and the chocolate espuma a perfect combination of discovering elements of it without overwhelming.

    the experience was exceptional. From the moment we were seated, Sean (downstairs) greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel welcome. Their knowledge of the menu was impressive, offering insightful recommendations tailored to our tastes and even providing thoughtful pairings with our drinks. Throughout the meal, Sean demonstrated a perfect balance of attentiveness and discretion, checking in just the right amount without interrupting our conversation. They ensured that everything was to our liking and went above and beyond to accommodate a special dietary request with ease. Food was amazing in particular the perfect cook pork! Great experience in Paris! Yes pricy but worth it

    Minding our waste lines, the four of us had only entrées. One veal, one steak and two pork’s. EXCELLENT portions, cooked to order and very flavorful. Limited “sides”. Very good bottle of wine. Very attentive service and good value. Interior was very chic. Great attractive crowd.

    Each time I have been, it is noticeable how all the finest details are considered to make it a very exceptional experience. Completely surprising given the location amongst so many tourist traps in the St Michel quarter. I cannot recommend Hestia highly enough and plan to return very soon.

    10/10

    It was my birthday and we had flown to Paris to see the Notre Dame re-opened, which was also an awesome experience. My daughter, who came with me, found this restaurant, she loves eating out and the experience of trying new food. The staff were very attentive, gave us lots of information about the food and even bought me a few chocolate sweets with a candle and sang Happy Birthday. It was a memorable experience. The food was delicious, I had pigeon which was cooked to perfection and have recommended you to any who are staying near the Latin Quarter as one to visit. Thank you so much Ildi and Sarah-Jane McIndoe

    Don't let the touristy street fool you. This is seriously some of the best, and most affordable, meals I've ever had in Paris. It currently ranks as one of my top ex-US restaurants of all time. For a full French meal experience without Michelin prices, please, please check this place out! Staff are lovely, friendly, and accommodating.

    10/10

    This place was so well reviewed we had to pop in and try it. Despite the fact that we were not dressed for a place of this caliber (just dressed for a day of exploring Paris), the staff could not have been nicer and provided better service. And the food was exceptional. Everything was great, and two dishes are now living rent free in my head they were so good. Would highly recommend to anyone.

    This place was the best restaurant among all we have tried during our stay in Paris. The service by everyone was amazing and warm welcoming, all plates were delicious and tasty. I’m wish I could give more than 5stars. Thank you so much for everything. I’ll come back again to try other food.

    What a great find. Service was impeccable, we were very well taken care without overdoing, great French subtle sophistication! One of the best desserts and salads I ever had, my daughter loved her dish(I have to coerce her usually to finish) and enjoyed it very much. I had the fish entree which was very good too, and with a glass of champagne it was a great experience. Love the location too,

    HestiaOwner

    Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you and your daughter enjoyed everything, from the service to the dishes. We hope to welcome you back for another memorable experience soon!

    The food, ambiance and service were terrific. For starters, we had the prawns which was very good and the seabass carpaccio which was absolutely outstanding (do not miss ordering this)! For dinner, we shared the steak and it was wonderful. Served with a chimichurri-type sauce and mashed potatoes. Bread and olives accompanied the meal. Sebastian was our server and was terrific. Would absolutely come back…hope to visit Paris and Hestia again very soon!

    HestiaOwner

    Thank you! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your experience with us. Your kind words about our menu and service, especially Sebastian, mean a lot. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit to Paris!

    We visited Hestia to celebrate a birthday, and the experience was remarkable. From the moment we arrived, the staff’s warmth and attention to detail made the evening feel special. They were attentive without being overbearing, creating a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. The food was outstanding, with every dish bursting with fresh, vibrant flavors. The wine pairings, recommended by the knowledgeable staff, perfectly complemented the meal and added to the overall enjoyment. What truly made the night stand out was the kindness and professionalism of the team. Their genuine care made our celebration feel even more personal. If you’re looking for a place where great food meets exceptional service, Hestia is the perfect choice.

    We had a spectacular dinner and experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful (they helped my wife navigate her gluten issues) and the food, wine, and atmosphere were superb. This is a really first rate restaurant in a city that knows food. It has become our favorite restaurant in Paris.

    HestiaOwner

    Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience. We're delighted to hear how much you and your wife enjoyed your time with us. We're glad your dining experience met your expectations. Looking forward to welcoming you both back soon!
