Le Cinq Paris Reviews from The Last Year
Wonderful glamour and food
This is a gorgeous location - the room itself is decorated with an abundance of tapestries, fresh flowers, beautiful linen and table settings and in the heart of the glorious Four Seasons George V hotel. It is truly one of the best in Paris. It is expensive but remember you only live once (that you know about)! The service was excellent, efficient, kind and nothing was too much trouble. You will feel like royalty. The staff teamed up to make sure both plates hit the table at the same time and with the silver cloches lifted on each dish simultaneously. We started with a glass of super sparkling champagne and there were a number of great options by the glass. The food was right up there with the best restaurants in the world. Dessert was not as fabulous as the rest. Breakfasts in this room are also a wonderful experience with great service and a la carte options including magnificent fresh fruit platters, eggs benedict and more luxury options. Go if you can!
Inflexible menu, lacking finesse, go to L'Orangerie instead
We dined at both Le Cinq and L'Orangerie during our latest stay. Both restaurants are located inside the Four Seasons George V. Our experience at L'Orangerie was vastly superior to Le Cinq and we would recommend everyone to go there instead of Le Cinq. Le Cinq has a single static menu. You essentially have to take the menu as it is, as soon as you want to change one course you are off to the "A la carte" dining section. We tried to swap a course from the menu for the Turbot but they couldn't do that for the three of us because apparently they could either split it for two or four, not for three. We then built our own 5-course menu from the a la carte menu. We received one Amuse-bouche (surprise from the kitchen) before our chosen dishes were served. Fish bites, served on some type of transparent gel. Then they brought our chosen courses, each in rapid succession. In-between our chosen courses there was no break, no in-between surprise course (Intermède) to clean the palate which is usually standard in Michelin restaurants. The courses came in rapid succession, basically 4 courses within 1 hour. The meals were cooked well, without fault, however they were seriously lacking in finesse. There was no surprising taste unfolding, no new aroma to be discovered. We have experienced more finesse in restaurants with just one Michelin star. The meal-adjusted wine pairing we tried to order for each course didn't work as intended either, the lady started to serve red wine before the fish course was due instead of waiting for the meat course. Service was spotty as well, quite a few different servers served us this evening, each not knowing of what language to speak to each guest (which we explained to our first server). We aborted the meal before ordering dessert. Just to give the contrast to L'Orangerie located in the same Hotel: In L'Orangerie, you can pick between several options for each course of the menu, fish or vegetarian. So each guest can configure the menu to cater to their palate instead of being forced to take a fixed menu or fall off the menu towards a la carte. After each guest ordered his version of the menu, we could order a wine pairing and the sommelier took care to deliver a fitting glass of wine to each course without fault. The dishes at L'Orangerie had each their own finesse and surprising tastes to be discovered, for example the little spheres of egg yolk would enter your mouth intact and later burst to give a completely new taste to the bite you just took. Between each course there was a in-between course as a surprise from the kitchen - they all were lovely and exciting. You have one fixed server in L'Orangerie and occasionally the sommelier will step by to explain the wine pairing. Service was perfect. Our meal took from 7pm to 23pm, so everything was perfectly spaced out. Our 5 courses at Le Cinq were rushed through so fast that were were at the desert stage at 9pm (we also started at 7pm). L'Orangerie delivered a dining experience worth multiple Michelin stars, Le Cinq was disappointing in comparison.
The Standard of Fine Dining
I am grateful and lucky to say that I’ve had the privilege to dine in some of the best restaurants in the world. This was one of the best meals of my life. I can’t stop thinking about it. The service was beyond anything I’ve ever experienced. The servers are respectful, professional, and have such a great sense of humor. I felt welcomed and cared for from the moment I stepped into the hotel. For me, the food was amazing. It was an inventive (and delicious) combination of colors, smells, textures, and freshness that was a masterclass in modern gastronomy. Yes, the price tag is high but this establishment is the standard of excellence and very few come close to it. I highly recommend that if you have the means to do this then to please make a reservation asap. The finishing touch at the end was the dessert bar. The waiter even packed me up two boxes of wrapped caramel to take home AND they sent us home with commemorative picture. I will remember this experience for the rest of my life.
Didn’t even finish the $200+ lobster
Great atmosphere for sure, but disappointing to spend so much on a meal and the lobster was like rubber. The gnochi was also lack luster. The other stuff was pretty good just not worth the price and definitely not Michelin 3 stars
Nice Ambiance - good food - but nothing beyond
The ambience itself is very pleasant and the food is good - but unfortunately nothing more. It is good food, but neither in terms of innovation nor finesse or accuracy (some courses were borderline well seasoned) at 3-star level. In European comparison (outside Paris) a clear 2 stars, but to be fair also not below 2 stars. The service was less than convincing, friendly but ultimately not very attentive. The sommelière was not very helpful. If you ignore the dimension of value for money, you can dine sufficiently well here. Those looking for 3-star-dinner as culinary highlights should look elsewhere - there are great 3-star-places in France & Europe charging half the price for a better experience.
This is the best restaurant in the world, don't come here
This is the best restaurant in the world, don't come here unless you're really about that life. Come here for the multiple Michelin stars and all the treats they surprise you with along the way that you didn't order and couldn't if you wanted to because some of it is unclear what it's even made of but will change your life. Come here for the steak that looks like a garden and definitely for the chocolate tray with nougat. Always and i do mean always get the signature spaghetti box! Don't order from the cheese tray unless they you really know what's up for real and don't ask any questions about the butter. This is always a 4 figure dinner so expect that. Americans.. Don't come here in your gallery department tee shirt you're embarrassing all of us and they will put a coat on you.
Absolutely amazing restaurant
If it was possible to give more than five stars, that would be the rating this amazing restaurant deserves. I have never had a meal in my life where I felt more special, more respected, and more cared for than having dinner at Le Cinq. The food was amazing, and the service was so wonderful just thinking about it and writing it literally brings tears to my eyes. Thank you Le Cinq for such a beautiful experience.
Forgot to make a review, but what I could remember.
. everything was amazing! Paris has soo many Michelin restaurants, but I wanted something romantic to celebrate a birthday. Upon arrival, you get the star treatment. They even have a seat for your bag. There were so many dishes. The pigeon was amazing! If you love desserts, be prepared for many dessert dishes. I'd recommend for anyone visiting.
Service, atmosphere and food are really impressive.
It is once in a life time thing due to the price.
Disappointed in overall value of this beautiful restaurant
Been to many two and three star Michelin restaurants but have to say I was disappointed in the overall value. For a Party of four the bill came out to nearly 4000 euro (without bottles of wines)! At that cost I would expect more in terms of the main course(s). Deer was the main course but the table didn’t want that so we asked for the famous pressed pasta dish which they kindly obliged. Little did we know that they would cut a single portion in half to serve two people! Can’t fault the restaurant on service, creativeness, taste, or service timings. But…for these prices I am expecting Waygu and lobster. Sorry but would not visit them again.
It has been amazing every single time
We love Le Cinq and are fortunate to be able to come back fairly regularly. This visit the spaghetti en gratin had a very generous addition of truffe blanche. Oh. The chef gladly accommodates vegetarians and for this dish it simply means leaving out the jambon - the mushrooms have so much flavor it doesn't lack depth (I am developing a craving as I am typing this). The spouse is a very discerning diner and since she is always enthusiastic about going back to Le Cinq I deduce the non-vegetarians are also in perfect hands there. Service was perfect, attentive but unobtrusive. I would be remiss if I didn't mention how much Monsieur Painchaud adds to the entire dining experience. What a civilized place.
Outstanding restaurant
Best meal we have ever had. Le Cinq was an outstanding dinner experience. Everything you would want in a 3 star michelin. The room is beautiful, as is the hotel. The staff were terrific, and hit just the right note. Helpful, informative, funny, sufficiently formal/informal. Started out with a fantastic round of white and rose champagne by the glass. Followed by an immense wine list, helpful sommelier. Reasonable bottles available. We opted for the a la carte and had excellent dishes. The famous pasta dish was outstanding, as were the gnnochi. Everything else was likewise superb. Excellent amuse buche, one of which was one of the best bite I have ever had. Lots of little extras, truly delicious bread. Way too much dessert. If you are looking for the classic 3 star michelin you cannot go wrong here.
Crazy good.
Amazing service. Went beyond our expectations. Beautiful surroundings...fresh flowers, dim lighting,...even a rose petal heart in the middle of the table for our anniversary. Very elegant. Dress code was upheld. I had the spaghetti entree and onion appetizer. Both were so complex and delicious. My husband had the scallops app and the beef entree. Everything was well done. The courses just kept on coming...so many extras. Everything was delicious.
This place deserves every award/star received. One of the best dining experiences in a long time.
I was expecting to be underwhelmed for overpriced food, but was pleasantly surprised. This place exceeded my expectations by leaps and bounds. The hotel is gorgeous, the staff is well trained and precise in their service. Food was exceptional. Over all experince was a 10/5. I don’t think I can remember the last time I enjoyed such an exceptional meal. Presentation, food, tastes, service, ambience, value etc were all incredible. Would recommend.
Three star Michelin restaurant.
We took the tasting menu with wine pairing. The restaurant looks beautiful, the service is impeccable, and food was spectacular. The only issue we had was that the food-wine pairing was fine, but not great. Incredible experience.
The best Michelin star restaurant I have been to.
We booked well in advance and were surprised to learn that three of the restaurants at the Four Seasons hold Michelin stars -- le Cinq has 3 and they are well deserved. Our table was comfortable and we selected a few dishes from the menu. The service was of course extremely attentive and the sommelier was very knowledgeable about the wine list. My only complaint was that the gluten free bread was disgusting -- hard and stale and not acceptable to serve with the prices we paid. This will be on our list every time we come back to Paris!
Fantastic experience.
The level of service is astonishing. They provided a cushioned ottoman for my wife's bag to sit on! The dining room is beautiful. We had the tasting menu. The food is amazing as expected. But what I love is the entire experience. The servers are wonderful, there are dozens of lovely things that occur throughout the meal that just makes your night. I won't list it all because then it ruins it. If you are into Michelin star restaurants this one should be on your list. SOME photos to follow Thanks!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
