An evening at la Tour d'Argent is more than just a dining experinece. Originally founded in 1582, it's a walk through history, a place to catch one of the best restaurant views around, and an opportunity to taste some of the best wines in the world.

The food is good, albeit overpriced, and you could do as well at top restaurants ...

A Paris landmark not to be missed, I have dinned there on numerous occasions. It is without any question one of the great restaurants not only of Paris, but of Europe. Signature dish is Duckling Tour d'Argent. There are 5 categories that make a great restaurant, Cuisine, Service, Ambience, Presentation, and Creativity. They rate at the very top of each of these categories.

We loved it! Pricey for six. We spent over $1500 on dinner for us. If you forget to wear a tie they make you borrow one from their collection!

I can't help but be awed by the history of the place - going back to the times of Cafe Anglais. The view from the dining room is also superb, overlooking the Seine and Notre Dame.

The wine cellar, with its 500,000 btl collection, is enough to floor most people. The wine list looked like a volume out of an encyclopedia even 10 years ago, ...

Enter this restaurant and feel like you are royalty. The surrounding are beautiful, service top-notch,but I found the food overpriced, and my soup and fish arrived cold at the table. Not to mention that that 1/2 cup cost 50euro!!

Glad I can say I ate there, my companions loved their duck. But I had way better meals everywhere else in Paris.

Everything about "La Tour" is top notch. Outstanding food, excellent service, wonderful views (go at sunset if you can). Those who wrote negative reviews clearly wouldn't recognize a world class restaurant if they trippd over it, and would have been better suited eating at Hamburger Quick. Yes, it is pricey, but no more so than any other world class restaurant of similar stature. Well worth the visit!

This is the best restaurant i know. They're food is superb, they're service is wonderful, and they're atmosphere is delighting! This is the best place to have a wonderful meal!

For any visitor to Paris lunch at Tour d'Argent is the experience of a lifetime. The view of the Isle d'City & Notre Dame is breathtaking. You will never wonder - not even for a monment - if you are anywhere except the very heart of Paris. Yes, the food is wonderful. What to order? Duck, duck and more duck. Don't miss this historic eatry.

Whatever critics may see (Sometimes I wonder where they go for dinner) it remains one of the most exceptionnal restaurants in the world.
The view is great of course but I was personnally impressed by the food and even more the wine selection. They have an English Sommelier, his name is David Ridgway!
