The prestigious Goncourt Book Prize has been awarded in this mythical establishment since 1914 and the Renaudot since 1926! Meticulously revamped, the smart brasserie interior now provides a backdrop for traditional French staples (pork pie, vol-au-vent), together with more inventive creations. The wine list has also been dusted off by an MOF sommelier.

    Lovely patio and excellent meal. If you are an avid reader, the history of the upstairs of this place will bring joy!

    The quality of this restaurant has gone down significantly. When all of the patrons are visitors and not a single local resident, it has become a tourist track based on the history of what it once was. Food was mediocre at best. Extremely disappointed. Service however was ok.

    Great food, and attentive service. They accommodated my wife’s food sensitivities, and had great wine recommendations. Cool spot, with a nice patio. Worth checking out.

    We were treated terrifically from when we arrived until we left. Service and the food was impressive to say the least. Wine list was extensive and cover all the bases. Would recommend as an excellent place for dinner.

    I know they can’t control a crying baby but did they really have to sit us right next to the thing in an empty restaurant, also I know French food can be funky this was just gross. Maybe I don’t get it or I’m just not sophisticated but this place blows

    Casa vez que vamos a París, cenamos en Drouant, y es así porque nunca defrauda. Ofrecen nuevos platos cada vez, muy creativos, el servicio es bastante rápido y extra amable. Nos encanta y regresaremos cada vez que estemos en Paris

    I was a terrible guest, late, on the busiest night ever and did not speak French at a very authentic French restaurant — they still went above and beyond to make me feel special and all the attention as expected. Ambiance was romantic with perfect lighting and delightful music. Food was delivered with attention to detail; quality was superb and had authenticity, brought up nostalgia and tender emotions.

    Drouant siempre ofrece una experiencia muy placentera, tanto por la calidad de la comida como del excelente servicio. Tienen varias áreas, lo que hace que cada una sea bastante privada y bonita. Recomiendo este restaurante para cualquier ocasión. Además, queda en un área de Paris muy chic y accesible. Los encanta!

    I highly recommend this place to anyone whose looking for a good dinning experience and delicious food. We were celebrating our honey moon and it was one of the best meals we had in Paris. The pear for desert is absolutely delicious.

    First time in Paris for NYE. Service was good, a bit on slower side, maybe they were short staffed. Staff spoke english and are friendly. Food was okay. My truffle risotto was great, the veal for my husband was “veined and chewy”. Decent wine selection. Had a lady singing Adele most of the night, volume was a bit blaring where we sat Upstairs. All in all good place

    Wine choices were very good. Starters and desserts were excellent. The main (scallops) were served not warm enough. The scallops were quite small.

    As with many restaurants in Paris, plan to be seated by the kitchen on your first visit (they actually seated us and then made us get up and move to an empty part of the restaurant). The waiter and his team did their best to make up for the slight. The food and wine were all excellent. (The punchline was the table we were asked to vacate was never used while we were there.). Vive la France!

    Honestly I do not understand how an app like OpenTable confirms the reservation, and the restaurant accepts the reservation, WHEN RESTAURANT IS CLOSED. OUTREAGEOUS
