Le Divellec

What an incredible meal! This Michelin one-star restaurant absolutely delivered from start to finish. Here’s what we had: 4 Insigney oysters, clams gratinated with lemon thyme, red tuna tartare in ponzu sauce, sea bass carpaccio with green apple jelly, squid with garlic, parsley, and chorizo, sole meunière, and a spiny lobster smoked with rosemary. For dessert, we finished with a chocolate soufflé and chocolate mousse — both flawless. Every dish was beautifully executed, and honestly, this place puts Le Bernardin in NYC to shame. Every time I dine in Paris, I’m reminded that French restaurants here simply operate on another level — the Michelin standards in France are just higher. The service was excellent — attentive without hovering, and the atmosphere had that perfect casual elegance that makes fine dining in Paris so enjoyable. The lobster was a touch overcooked, but still very flavorful, and the sole meunière was absolute perfection — buttery, delicate, and melt-in-your-mouth good. All the raw dishes were impressively fresh and refined, and the desserts were rich and beautifully balanced. We didn’t realize the spiny lobster was priced by weight because we didn't look at the prices...so when the bill came to about €1,200, we were a bit surprised — but after laughing it off and tasting the rice dish they made from the leftover lobster, it felt about right. Everything, down to the bread and butter, side vegetables, and mashed potatoes, was spot-on. An unforgettable meal — refined yet full of personality. Next time I’m in Paris, I’ll definitely be back.

One of the best seafood restaurants I’ve ever tried! We indulged in the sole meunière, paired perfectly with a side of grilled vegetables and a sumptuous 1 kg langouste for two. The dish was creamy and bursting with flavor, and the portion was just right. We also ordered baby potatoes on the side, and let me tell you, they were absolutely delightful! This meal truly exceeded our expectations!

The food was decent and the drinks gentleman /server was genuinely lovely. The food server was a complete letdown. Impatient and condescending the moment I asked for a simple recommendation. Worse, he failed to warn me that a dish was fresh out of the oven — I burned my hand because of this negligence. That is a basic duty of care, not an optional courtesy. For a restaurant at this price point, the service was frankly embarrassing. It is completely unacceptable to treat tourists this way. I left feeling unwelcome and disappointed. The drinks staff alone stopped this from being one star. Pls sort out your floor service as it’s genuinely disappointing and unacceptable.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ (Visited for lunch on April 10th for one)

I chose to visit this restaurant solely because it has a Michelin star, but in hindsight, I should have trusted the Google reviews instead. The experience was deeply disappointing from start to finish. We waited 70 minutes for our main courses after placing the order. When we first arrived and were seated, no one brought us menus—I had to get up and ask for them myself. That already set a very poor tone for the evening. There was nothing about this place that reflected the standards of a Michelin-starred restaurant: neither the service, nor the food, nor even the tableware. The only redeeming factor was the wine and the nice wine glasses. The service was cold and indifferent, and it felt like the staff simply didn’t care. Our starters—4 oysters and a tartare—took 25 minutes to arrive after we ordered. Then it was another 40 minutes before we got our mains. And this happened while the restaurant was only half full. I am extremely dissatisfied with this experience and strongly advise against being misled by the Michelin Guide listing. This is a restaurant that urgently needs to improve its staff training, kitchen operations, and overall service speed. Especially considering that a meal here costs at least €100 per person without drinks—that’s simply absurd for what you get.
