Altitude 95 reservations
 
I have e-mailed the restaurant Altitude 95 for reservations and have not received a reply. Is this the correct way to reserve a lunch spot?

I e-mailed them also -- want to dine at Jules Verne in February -- e-mailed 2 weeks ago and no reply. Is this typical?

About a year ago when we went we also e-mailed our request and I resent the e-mail about 2 weeks later and received a comfirmation at that time, so maybe do that.

Time after time people are told to email for reservations. In Dec 2001 I tried that and was told 95 wasn't taking reservations by email. So for a few dollars we called. No problem. I don't know if it is the same for Jules Verne. To get the numbers just go to the Effiel Tower web site.

You might try faxing them - I was able to reserve window table for an early June lunch via fax. Unfortunately, I can't remember if I e-mailed them first and followed up with the fax or just faxed first - sorry! Our family of 4 (2 adults & 2 kids) had a wonderful meal there - my 10-year old daughter especially enjoyed a seafood extravaganza & both kids enjoyed pulling the smails (sorry - escargot) out of their shells.<BR>Good luck & have fun!

how does Jules Verne compare to Altitude 95 (for lunch) in terms of food quality, stuffiness, price and general atmosphere?

Wendy Aug 13th, 2002 10:14 AM

Jules Verne is a Michelin starred restaurant- formal, gourmet, etc. <BR><BR>Altitude 95 is much more casual and good for families.

Hi. I just received an e-mail from Altitude 95 informing me that they do not accept e-mail reservations. They gave me the following numbers to call/fax for reservations.<BR><BR>telephone: 00331 45 55 20 04 or by fax to: 00331 47 05 94 40.<BR><BR>Thanks for everyones replies. :^)

How is the food at Altitude 95? Is a reservation necessary there for lunch?<BR><BR>With respect to Jules Verne, is the food as good as the view? what should I expect to pay for two for lunch with a bottle of wine? for women at lunch would "business casual" attire be appropriate?

Michele Aug 13th, 2002 11:39 AM

Boy, that's a good question: Is a reservation needed for lunch?<BR><BR>I can't get through to Altitude 95 either by fax or telephone. I must be dialing incorrectly. At this point I am ready to give up. BUT... If someone out there has gotten in this restaurant for lunch WITHOUT a reservation, maybe we will go that route.<BR><BR>BTW, if we do go for lunch, do we go straight to the restaurant? Is there a separate entrance? Do we need to purchase Eiffel Tower tickets to get into the restaurant?<BR><BR>THANKS!!!

Fred Aug 13th, 2002 01:23 PM

Whoops - new number. Try dialing:<BR> 011-33-1-45-55-20-04

You need reservations at 95 for lunch. Don't take the chance. There was no charge getting to 95 but if you want to go up in the tower after lunch you can get tickets from a vending machine close to the door of 95.
