Au Chapeau Gris

Au Chapeau Gris Review

This bustling wood-beam restaurant just off Avenue de St-Cloud, overlooking elegant Place Hoche, offers hearty selections of meat and fish, ranging from bœuf Rossini with wild mushrooms to salmon and scallops marinated in lime and the top-price lobster fricasseed in Sancerre. The wine list roams around the vineyards of Bordeaux and Burgundy, while desserts include pineapple tartare with hibiscus syrup, and glazed pear in pastry with hot-chocolate sauce. The €22 prix-fixe menu makes a filling lunchtime option.

    Absolutely fantastic, the best restaurant experience in our 6 days in Paris (including Tour d'Argent). First course was fish soup from fish/saffron stock, and accompanying bowls of mayo-based creme, fresh croutons, freshly grated romano-parmesan. Fish/scallop wonderment for the entree, dessert of mixed berries and vanilla gelato. Service was impeccable, lunch prix fixe was 28 Euros. Lovely interior, outstanding service. Just down from the entry square from Versailles. I can't recommend this restaurant too highly.
