41 avenue Montaigne (Rue François Ier), Paris, Île-de-France
French Restaurant · Champs-Élysées · 382 tips and reviews
Jessica Barnett: This place is a pricey scene but worth it. Great outdoor seating & people watching. Love love love their Tom Yam Chilean Sea Bass with the mashed potatoes. FYI, lunch and and dinner menu are the same.
Jessica Barnett: The palace itself is lovely but the grounds are just as good or better. Bring your drivers license so you can rent a little golf cart and drive around. Audio guide is free and really neat.
