    The restaurant has gone 3 days before our visit out of business - without any notice!! We have travelled to the place for nothing. That‘s an abolutely no-go! At least a young man from the tower management has informed us about this situation.

    The food was great, the venison was so tender, the lamb was great, and the team accommodated all our requests. Amazing experience!

    It was so hot with the sun shining in the windows that we could not enjoy the experience.

    Of course THE VIEW, THE VIEW, Encore THE VIEW. Paris, The Tour Eiffel , Invalides, Arc de Triomphe, Trees of the Seine, le Defense Parisian Wall Street, Petit et Grande Palais’, Trocodero, day or sunset - beautiful! Attentive wait staff ( so nice to take a photo with Eiffel Tower in the background), Excellent Breakfast and dinners, we always bring our guests here. Thank you Staff!!!!

    The view, of course, was great. Nice sunset and views of the Eiffel tower lit up. Unfortunately, the food was only mediocre, limited wine selection (this is Paris, right?!) and the service was almost nonexistent. Would not recommend. Consider the rooftop bar and restaurant at Terrass Hotel instead!

    Good was beyond what I expected wine was amazing and views were spectacular. Staff acted as though serving you was a favour and were incredibly rude

    Terribly hot inside, maybe 38. Cold reception despite reservations. Felt like cattle being ushered up the lift and towards a reception desk with 15 other people. Staff was nice but were clearly rushed. Not seated by the window, not offered. Wanted to cry because it was our 20th anniversary dinner.

    Warning: Do Not Go To This Tourist Trap! I have no idea why this place is rated so highly. I wish I would have read the reviews and NOT BOOKED this place for our last night in Paris. The restaurant was approximately 100 degrees and my son described the smell to be almost exactly like his old Frat house. Apparently from the reviews I wish I would have read, this is how it always is on warm days. In the reviews it also says it’s freezing inside when it’s cold outside. We ordered our food and it came out suspiciously within just a few minutes. Which means it was already 100% precooked and sitting under warmers before we even arrived. I would rate the food at around a C- We had better food randomly picking a restaurant on the street. The service was just ok. They did the minimum needed take your order and get it delivered. We asked for butter which never came. We did see two other people not be able to take the heat and just leave. I wish we would have also just gotten up and left also.

    Not worth the money. Servets disgruntled and fighting. No air conditioning and boiling hot room temperature. A shameless tourist mill that I’m ashamed that I fell for! Go elsewhere!!!

    The only thing that went well was the view. Since reception (rude asian lady) till service, food, totally tourist trap. They dont listen to you. They invent prices of different menus that were not in the site if u want to seat in the window. They let people sit in the window if they insist a lot… it was just bad treatment and low food quality. I think you should just go for a drink and some pictures if u are a instragrammer because theres is so many people taking pictures that do not appreciate what is worthable- good company and the view. My advice is run away

    service and view were amazing. I had lamb chops, the meat was lovely but the vegetable pure tasted like pure cumin and was not for my liking, too strong and did not complement the meat. price was reasonable considering the view. Otherwise a lovely evening out with amazing views of the Eiffel tower, a really unforgettable experience.

    The view of Paris is spectacular, but when seated, the windows have a frame that block the view, making it so that you can’t enjoy it during dinner. Food was cold, unseasoned. Clearly had some potential but no one cares about it anymore. The restaurant was hot (over 30 degrees), there was a cocktail hour that crowded the tables, and service was slow. Unacceptable for the price.

    Food was great. Service was poor, air conditioner was not working - it was 30+ degrees inside, everyone was sweating.

    The views were amazing, the waiter was kind enough to seat us at the window by request although I had a Menu Balcon. For the price I paid, I expected a faster service and higher quality food. It didn’t feel like the food was the main focus of the night.

    I came for the views, and they didn't disappoint. I requested a seat near a view of the tower and they gave me one that was perfect. But I arrived 10 minutes late and still had to wait another 15 at the bar while they got it ready. I requested information regarding the vegetarian menu, but then they still accidentally brought me someone else's food that clearly wasn't vegetarian. Both theirs and my dishes had popcorn sprinkled on top, which was an interesting touch, but my dish was basically a soup and made it soggy. My poached egg had no structure, and I felt like I was hunting for an odd pea or grain of barley in a lake of spiced milk. It was strange and unsatisfying. I had probably four different waiters, none of which who seemed to care about my experience. They did nothing to redirect other guests who hovered over my table taking pictures of the view. I'm glad I came once, but wouldn't return.

    The bread is not fresh. The dishes are just very ordinary and badly presented. The view is breathtaking. The service is good.

    Such a shame that a restaurant with a privileged outlook in Paris is so neglected and tired. Dirty floors, dirty bathrooms, and worn out everything. Service was initially good and then we were forgotten for the sake of large group of tourist who came well after us and left well before us. Food was average to good. Extremely small mullet filet and disappointing entres. Dessert was fine. View was beautiful. Will not go back.

    We were disappointed with our recent visit. The restaurant was uncomfortably cold, and while the ceiling was lovely, the rest of the interior appeared worn and poorly maintained. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to its price, and we were served dirty cutlery and stained plates, which affected the overall experience. We hope this feedback is helpful for future improvements.

    I had reserved a table in advance, but upon arrival, I was seated at a table in the middle of the restaurant. I noticed that several window tables were clearly available and politely asked if I could be moved. Unfortunately, the waiter declined without even checking whether those tables were reserved. What made the experience even more frustrating was that the window seats remained empty throughout my entire visit. The lack of effort and unwillingness to accommodate a simple request reflected very poor service. As for the food—it was quite basic and not as refined or memorable as one might expect from a place with such a reputation. The only real highlight was the view. For those planning to visit, especially for the experience, be well prepared: don’t expect much from the food or service, and make sure to manage your expectations accordingly.

    The view was amazing and we really enjoyed that aspect of our breakfast. The food was average, warm but not hot. Service was average although the person who greeted us was lovely and very accommodating.

    We knew that the view would be spectacular, but the food and service were great as well. The only negative is the entrance to the building, could use some renovation.

    Nice view - but the place needs to be remodeled and refreshed. Really needs a makeover. Food is just “ok” too but you don’t go there for the food you go for the view. My food came out cold and another not cooked. They did comp us a bit for mine- but for the price I still payed not worth it. Ruined the meal.

    Dinner visit; views stunning. Food excellent. Service disorganised. Waited more than 15 mins to pay. Atmosphere chaotic: people almost tumbling on top of each other. Toulets absolutely disgusting: only one functioning toilet for hundreds of people. No signs indicating’”out of order”. Crowds near lift an absolute shambles.

    Was around 1981 first time at Le Ciel de Paris, than 2011 twice and now 2025. There are a little bit to much exotic tourists there which reduces a little bit the pleasure at this fantastic place. Kind regards, W. Höffler

    Matt our server went above and beyond…almost like he knew the food was subpar. This place needs a complete renovation, the chairs are falling apart, ripped and battered looking, the carpets stained and the overall ambiance was dim. The only thing this place has going for it is the view..come for drinks and eat elsewhere
