    Great food, but the manager’s treatment left much to be desired. I was seated alone near the door in the cold. Despite promising a blanket, none was provided. I paid nearly $400 for food and drinks and requested a different spot, but was told all single diners are seated there—even though a nearby table remained empty throughout my visit. I had mentioned it was my birthday, but no acknowledgment was made, while another guest received a small cake. I’d love to return for the food, but not if I have to deal with this manager again.

    The food was flavorful and imaginative and the creative presentation made the overall experience a joy. We chose the winter menu and there were several additional surprises between courses that were bursts of flavor. The service was impeccable and the servers were very helpful. The ambience was intimate, warm, and comfortable - relaxed not stuffy. We even met the chef and conveyed our delight with the meal and staff.

    I chose the set, From Athens to Paris, theoretically the chef's signature - a fusion of Greek elements with French cuisine. Unfortunately, my dining experience can only be described as a huge disappointment. At €305 per person for a nine-course meal, not a single dish left me impressed. The first major issue was portioning. The appetizers and mains were substantial, with lots of bread and other filling components added throughout the meal. By the time dessert arrived, I was already uncomfortably full. The second yet biggest problem was the imbalance of flavors. Every dish leaned heavily on bold flavors—either too sour or too salty (I ended up drinking two bottles of €13 water), while components that should've been savory often felt bland. For instance, the lamb chop was tasteless on its own, but the overly rich and cloying sauce paired with it made the dish feel greasy and unbalanced. Many dishes incorporated lemon with an overpowering acidity, leaving me wincing frequently.

    Extremely well serviced, the waiter that was explaining every course was very handsome and professional! We took from Athene to Paris, and it was all delicious. It was our first Michelin stared restaurant experience, which was really fantastic.

    A wonderful experience to mark our special occasion. The food was very creative and the flavors were exquisite. The staff was extremely friendly, and the chef coming out to greet us was a pleasant touch at the end to complete the moment.

    Our lunch at the Palais Royale was a highlight of our trip to Paris. The staff was pleasant and professional. Moreover, the food was among the best I’ve ever tasted. It was more than a meal. It was a marvelous experience.

    The restaurant is located in the outer corner of the Royal Palace, and the indoor environment is comfortable and quaint. Due to language problems, it took us a little more time to order, but the waiters were very patient to explain to us. We prefer appetizers and desserts, especially the green dish and the final yogurt. On the contrary, the main course is not very prominent, and the overall taste is salty. My friend thinks the taste of pork is a little strange, and Ankang fish is not bad. Lunch Menue is very cost-effective and has a large amount of food. We also like the recommended red wine. It's so funny that we saw a lot of people acting in the garden when we were walking away after lunch. The costumes seemed to be from the 18th or 19th century, I guess.

    Wow, just wow! What an incredible dining experience! The taste, true to its fresh ingredients, was exquisite as was the plating and presentation. Our servers were incredibly friendly and accommodating to us. They allow us to taste wine until it was exactly to our liking, and also accommodated one vegetarian in the party. I would suggest that you go to this restaurant with no more than four people who are interested in discussing the food it’s presentation and the dining experience.. It would be a shame to have any other idle discussion.

    Tonight I actually felt sick before coming to the restaurant due to the flight issue and my body conditions, but the lovely staff recommended me a refreshing course with a lot of vegetables and I actually felt better after having this course. What a great way to finish my birthday! Awesome place.

    Clearly the best "lunch" I've ever had and one of my Top 10 Meals All Time. Absolutely top class in every aspect of the dining experience. I HIGHLY recommend Palais Royal Restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

    We had the full tasting menu. The entire experience was fantastic. Food, service, tempo, everything. I don’t eat fish. My wife doesn’t eat lamb. We were offered the opportunity to substitute but decided to make an exception and try both dishes as-is. No regrets! Highest compliments to the chef!

    When I entered the restaurant service team was really nice and friendly.it was nice greeting And I ordered palais royal menu. It was pricey and the quality of food was nice. Even if it's based on greek food .bit too much cheesy taste for me. So I expected dessert menu a lot. The first siso sorbet made me feel fresh. After that the yogurt was not mixed well with other menu.( black forest cake as well ..). Dessert menu wasn't enough to me as much as I expected. Despite of all it was good to have lunch in there.

    Truly superb French food influenced by and a homage to Greek cuisine. Every meal was delicious and the service was friendly, attentive, informed and expert. A really wonderful restaurant with elegant decor which cannot be recommended too strongly, though at night the cab driver found it a little hard to locate down the backstreets and the parade in front of the restaurant was rather empty with some rough sleepers at the end.

    We went to wrap up our honeymoon trip in Paris here and were not disappointed, service was fantastic guiding us through the menu which tasted amazing. Having done a number of tastings before this was very interesting due to the chefs Greek heritage which came through the dishes which were executed with grace and splendour. Worth every star!

    The food was outstanding, the service was very spot on. The staff are friendly but not overly so. They helped when asked and were kind and always very friendly. The chef took chances but was still true to the French methods that why we went there. I would highly reccomend the Palais Royal even if your french is not so good.

    There was bone in the fish and the lamb wasn't delicious. Overpriced for the Athens to Paris set menu.
