We ordered our courses from a set menu that appears to change monthly. I regret not taking a photo of the menu so that I could relay exactly what we ordered but just know that out of the nine different dishes (we ordered the 3-course lunch) between us, all were beautifully-plated and fantastic. I didn’t see a single person whip out their phones so I apologize that my food photos do not have proper styling, set-up or angles because I was trying to take them as discreetly as possible!)

(Note: In a fine dining establishment like this, it’s awkward to take photos. There are wine pairings but I don’t remember seeing them for the 3-course menu. We added on a moderately-priced bottle of Burgundy for €110. A choice of set menus is the only option for lunch and dinner and at the time of our visit, those range from €105 – €230 per person, exclusive of wine. There is no children’s menu and children are charged as adults. Others were also wearing fashionable hats. While I wouldn’t recommend bringing a pile of toys-your kids do need to be on their best behavior-at the time of our lunch, there were many other children dining with their families with a stuffed animal or similar in tow. But when I checked us in as a party of three on the ground level, staff member jokingly said, “You mean four?” And, our servers were equally receptive. I had every intention of keeping Grace the American Girl in my bag (if you don’t know the story behind her, she dreams of owning her own French bakery and travels to France). The plate was removed after seating but was inspired by the base of the Eiffel Tower (and can be purchased online for €250 each). The decor is contemporary yet comfortable and it might be the “Structure” serving plate or sleek Pininfarina chairs but it definitely felt like you were in a different world- Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea kept coming to mind. Natural light floods the entire restaurant. Giant windows reveal unobstructed views of Paris. Inside Le Jules Verne Restaurant in the Eiffel Tower I would choose the latter for men, however, if opting for dinner as it is a more formal experience. At lunch, plenty of men were dressed in the same manner while others opted for sports coats. My daughter and I wore casual dresses and my husband wore a nice Thomas Pink dress shirt with dark jeans. I read somewhere about someone being turned away for wearing jeans.

I had heard mixed things about what to wear and the dress code on the website simply says no sportswear like shorts, trainers (tennis shoes) or t-shirts. If you do not make a reservation well in advance, you will not be able to dine on the day. The gentleman handling check-in at ground floor level had a list of reservations but I’ve heard that it is always wise to print out your confirmation, just in case. Plus, the elevator is small and there is only so much room in it. We arrived about 15 minutes or so early, which I would recommend, because you’ll need to check-in and go through security screening. If you are visiting Paris, make a note to book a reservation here when the window opens 90 days in advance. However, the concierge at Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris was able to secure us a lunch reservation for us with no problem. dinner start time would be too late for my daughter. By that time (two months in advance) skip-the-line tickets for the Eiffel Tower were sold out-June is an extraordinarily busy time to visit Paris-and reservations for Le Jules Verne could not be made online as they were showing booked at lunch and I thought a 7 p.m. Overall planning for our trip commenced much later than it should have.
