Are you looking for an absolutely amazing restaurant with Eiffel Tower View?
You have found your guide!
My husband and I are real epicureans, literally travelling the world to find the best food and restaurants. Whether we are in the bustling streets of Bangkok or the narrow, hidden streets on small Greek Islands, we have a nose for good food.
When we fly into Paris to visit my parents we always try to steal a few days to hang around and gorge on amazing food. Honestly, I literally line up my restaurant reservations the moment I book my flights because I am THAT excited about the food in Paris.
This is also why, in this article, I have put together a list of my favourite restaurants with a view of the Eiffel Tower. When you visit Paris on this once-in-a-lifetime trip, you HAVE to have had dinner with the Iron Lady in view!
I obviously understand that not everyone will have a massive budget, so I have tried to include lots of different budgets (but it’s still going to be more expensive than your normal run-of-the-mill bistrot).
Don’t hesitate to comment if you have any questions or share your experiences or restaurant tips for Paris!
PS: If you are not too fussed about being able to see the Eiffel Tower, you can also head to Le Wepler near Pl de Clichy!

Les Ombres
📍 Address: 27 quai Jacques Chirac | 🍽️ Cuisine: Modern | 💰 Price Range: €58 – €188
What an amazing experience. The service was fantastic and the food was amazing. We ventured out onto the terrace after dinner fir cocktails and had a breathtaking view of the Eiffel Tower at night.
– Review by Deanna S
One of the most famous restaurants near the Eiffel Tower has to be Les Ombres. It offers an unforgettable experience because you are almost dining under the Eiffel Tower, like – she is right there!
Les Ombres is located on the rooftop of Musée Quai Branly on Jacques Chirac. The fact that it is on the rooftop means that you have (almost) unobstructed views of the Eiffel Tower.
If you are a foodie like me, you will LOVE to know that the menu was created under the guidance of world-famous chef Alain Ducasse. Does that mean this place is expensive
Kind of.
Their 8-course meal is a whopping €188 per person. But like so many other restaurants in Paris, they offer lunch menus on week days that are a lot cheaper. Their week day lunch menu costs €58 for a three course menu which – seen the setting, the fact that this is a world-famous restaurant and that the menu was created by Ducasse, is an okay price!
Want to go a la carte? Then you should look out for their signature dishes which include Blue Lobster on Embers, Marinated Cuttlefish and Mushroom, ginger and chilli crispy raviole with gold caviar.
Be sure to book as soon as you know you are going to Paris because this restaurant is known to be fully booked long in advance!
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 9/10 – amazing view from the terrace
- Outdoor Seating: Yes, on the terrace
- Be Sure to Try: Blue lobster on the embers, Marinated cuttlefish, Mushroom crispy raviole with gold caviar
- Open Hours: 12:00-14:00, 19:00-22:00

📍 Address: Place du Trocadéro | 🍽️ Cuisine: French | 💰 Price Range: €26 – €55 for mains
Excellent service especially with Sofiane that gave us a very warm hospitality. Amazing food!! we will definitely come back soon !
– Review by Reemstravels
Another amazing restaurant in Paris that has a view of the Eiffel Tower is Café de l’Homme. The restaurant is located near Place du Trocadéro, which is – as you might know- one of the best places to see the Eiffel Tower!
Café de l’Homme is an amazing pick for anyone who is excited about authentic French food. Just like Les Ombres above, the menu here is curated by a famous chef, Fadi Frem. He is all about seasonal produce and French culinary traditions, so you know you are going to have an amazing meal.
This is definitely one of the more affordable fine-dining restaurants on the list. It’s still expensive, but it won’t leave you grabbing your pearls the moment you get presented with the bill. I am a massive fan of Ceviche, so I would recommend trying the Ceviche of royal sea bream. The line-caught sea bass is also a crowd-pleaser.
This Eiffel Tower restaurant also offer experiences such as the Eiffel Experience, which will put you in the front row with a view of the Eiffel Tower, or the Diamond experience for those who are all about the food. I do want to mention that these are incredibly expensive. You can also go A La Carte, but if you want a view of the Eiffel Tower on the terrace, there is a supplement of 50 euros. This will include a glass of champagne and guaranteed Eiffel Tower views.
I obviously would recommend booking a table in advance. They are normally never fully booked, but I wouldn’t risk it. You can just book through their booking system on their website (it’s a bit janky, but I got it to work opening another browse).
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 9/10 – iconic view from the terrace although sitting there will cost you more
- Outdoor Seating: Not specified
- Be Sure to Try: Ceviche of royal sea bream, Large-caliber line-caught sea bass
- Open Hours: Information not available

Monsieur Bleu
📍 Address: 20 Avenue de New York | 🍽️ Cuisine: French | 💰 Price Range: €21 – €55 for mains
The food is superb! I really recommend the Fillet de boeuf. The service was good as well thanks to Lyes who was very knowledgable and made sure we are getting what we want.
– Review by Hazdean
If you are looking for a restaurant with views of the Eiffel Tower that is not too expensive but still great for a romantic evening or classy brunch, then Monsieur Bleu is definitely one to look at.
This restaurant is located in the west wing of Palais de Tokyo. Now, Palais de Tokyo itself is already an amazing and beautiful place to visit, so you can kill two birds with one stone.
The restaurant itself was designed by architect Joseph Dirand and it is honestly a great spot for any occasion – a nice brunch with friends or a special romantic meal with your significant other, I can only recommend booking a table here.
And the prices aren’t too bad either. The restaurant mainly serves traditional French dishes with an international twist. You can het the Rock Shrimp Tempura with a spicy mayonnaise for €21 and their Miso-caramelised black cod (a bit more expensive at €55) is to die for.
You can also head here for brunch on the weekends, and here I would recommend trying the truffle pasta gratin and the amazing homemade pastries.
The best view of the Eiffel Tower will be from the terrace, so I would recommend asking for a table on the terrace. Again, booking a table beforehand is recommended. You can do so via their website or via phone.
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 5/10 – you can see it but it’s quite obscured by the trees in front of the restaurant
- Outdoor Seating: Yes, especially enjoyable in summer
- Be Sure to Try: Rock Shrimp Tempura, Miso-Caramelised Black Cod
- Open Hours:
- Lunch: Monday to Friday, 12:00 – 14:30
- Brunch: Saturday and Sunday, 12:00 – 16:00
- Dinner: 7:00pm – 2:00am (last order at 11:00pm)

Edmond at Terass Hotel
📍 Address: 12 Rue Joseph de Maistre | 🍽️ Cuisine: Fusion | 🍽️ Price Range: €12 – €36 for mains
In decent weather, you can sit outside and stare at all of Paris and the Eiffel Tower. Late night is very popular, but earlier on, it’s very quiet and peaceful. Fine service, very friendly, no problem if you don’t speak French.
– Review by alangL5055Ok
Last time my husband and I travelled to Paris, I actually wanted to stay at the Terrass Hotel but sadly it was fully booked for our dates. However, we were super lucky because the hotel also has a very good restaurant on the top floor with panoramic views over Paris and the Eiffel Tower!
Edmond is honestly an amazing restaurant if you like a bit of a classy yet stylish vibe. The menu was created by chaf Santiago Guerrero and mixes both French cuisine and global flavours.
If you decide to book a table at this amazing restaurant, you should definitely try the Beef Tataki with Chimichurri or the Meagre Fish Ceviche.
If you are like me and love a good sunday Brunch you can pay €62 and get access to an amazing cold buffet with smoked salmon and fresh shrimp, a warm buffet with bacon, pancakes and even fish and a sweet buffet with cake and desserts. Juices, tea and coffee are also included but if you would like a glass of wine you will need to order from the menu.
Edmond is quite far from the Eiffel Tower so it will be more of a panoramic view with the Eiffel Tower in the distance – but trust me the view is honestly more than worth it. When the weather is nice enough, you can also request to sit outside on their terrace. I would recommend heading to Edmond for sunset to get the most beautiful views!
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 7/10 – panoramic view with Eiffel Tower in the distance. Especially amazing in the evening at sunset.
- Outdoor Seating: Yes, on the rooftop in the bar
- Be Sure to Try: Beef Tataki, Meagre Fish Ceviche
- Open Hours: Open from 16:00 to 22:30, specific lunch and dinner times not provided

Girafe
📍 Address: Place du Trocadéro | 🍽️ Cuisine: Seafood & French | 💰 Price Range: €25 – €58 for mains
My mum and I visited for lunch and it was the most breathtaking experience. The food, view of the Eiffel tower and the service is unparalleled. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.
– Review by Keeliepie
Another world-famous restaurant with a view of the Eiffel Tower has to be Girafe. It’s a pretty pricey restaurant, and you will need to book quite early – but it might be worth it if you are looking for that one special meal in Paris.
Just like Café de L’Home, Girafe is actually located on Place du Trocadéro, one of the most famous viewpoints of the Eiffel Tower.
Girafe is a bit of an interesting restaurant because when you walk inside you will notice that it is actually decorated in a 1930’s nautical theme. This is because Girafe is known for its amazing seafood. I would actually recommend trying the Fine de Claire Oysters (€25) or even the Half Blue Lobster (€53).
The restaurant goes all out when it comes to quality and sources the best fish of that day. It is probably one of the best places to eat fish in Paris.
The restaurant also has outdoor seating on the terrace. It’s an absolutely amazing place to sit in spring, summer and very early autumn. Although the terrace will obviously give you the best view of the Eiffel Tower, there are spots on the terrace where the view is blocked by a large statue. Feel free to ask to change your table if this is the case.
Should you book a table online? Yes, probably. Although there is often still space when you book, the number of walk-ins can mean that you won’t get a table. It’s also a good idea to ask to sit outside. Another great thing about this restaurant is that their menu is in both French and English.
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 8/10 – great location and great view, but some seats have their view blocked by a statue.
- Outdoor Seating: Yes
- Be Sure to Try: Fine de Claire Oysters, Half Blue Lobster
- Open Hours: Weekends: 12–4 PM, 7 PM–2 AM, Weekdays: 12–2:30 PM, 7 PM–2 AM

Le Ciel de Paris
📍 Address: 56th Floor, Tour Montparnasse | 🍽️ Cuisine: French | 💰 Price Range: €35 to €65
You can read my personal review here
Le Ciel de Paris is one of my absolute favourite restaurants, and it has a view of the Eiffel Tower. I always recommend it to people heading to Paris. The restaurant is located on the top of Tour Montparnasse and they do an amazing lunch that won’t break the bank! I promise.
My husband and I visited last time we were in Paris, and their 3-course set lunch was only €38. The food was amazing, and so were the views. I do have to say that the restaurant is not very big, so we felt very wedged in, especially since the till was behind us. However, I do understand why they would want to get as many people as possible in there.
We decided on a nice bottle of wine and even got some savoury cookies which were very yummy. I had a smoked fish salad as my first course and my husband an egg foam with artichoke (which was much nicer than mine!). I could go on and on about our experiences but if you want to know more you can read my complete review of the experience here.
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 9/10 – when sitting by the window you have the most amazing view but I can imagine it’s a bit harder to see if you don’t. Anyway, best view of the Eiffel Tower I have ever seen!
- Outdoor Seating: No
- Be Sure to Try: Lobster Bisque, Beef Tournedos
- Open Hours: 12:00 PM – 11:00 PM
- Website: https://www.cieldeparis.com/
Tip: A ticket to the top of Tour Montparnasse is about $20. This means it is actually really good value to eat here because you have the same amazing view without having to pay for a ticket!
Chez Francis
📍 Address: 7, place de l’Alma | 🍽️ Cuisine: French | 💰 Price Range: €28 – €68
This is a review based only on the view outside. We had a lovely time chilling here with nice drinks and a delightful view of the Eiffel Tower looking over us. Pricey but expected.
– Review by JayandHA
If you are looking for a more French Bistrot experience with a view of the Eiffel Tower, then Chez Francis might be for you. Sure, it is still quite pricey, but in the end, you will pay for that amazing view.
Chez Francis is very well known for its seafood. Here, people come for the fruits de mer – a variety of oysters and shellfish. If that’s not really your thing, you can also order some pasta or meat.
From the terrace of Chez Francis, you will have a great view of the Eiffel Tower. I would recommend booking a table beforehand just to make sure you are sitting outside.
Sitting outside at Chez Francis will also give you that quintessential Parisian experience, which is always a nice bonus.
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 7/10 – Great view but it’s a bit far and in summer and spring the trees can obstruct the view a tiny bit.
- Outdoor Seating: Yes
- Be Sure to Try: Fruits de Mer, Rigatoni Sauce Morilles, Côte de Veau Filet
- Open Hours: Open every day from 8.30am to 11am & 12pm to 11pm

Georges
📍 Address: 6th floor, Centre Pompidou | 🍽️ Cuisine: French Fusion | 💰 Price Range: €22 – €52
Fabulous food, fabulous view, fabulous service from Farrah. Top of the Pompidou Centre a lunchtime relax from stunning art experience.
– Review by Nick K
Centre Pompidou is secretly one of my absolute favourite places in Paris. I love going there in autumn just before sunset for the amazing views of the Sacré Coeur and Montmartre.
Another reason to head to this amazing museum is its restaurant, Georges. The restaurant is located on the 6th floor, and it offers amazing panoramic views over the city.
If you know Paris a bit, you will know that Centre Pompidou is not near the Eiffel Tower at all. This means that you will only see the Eiffel Tower in the distance. I do promise, however, that you will have a great view of the Notre Dame and Mont Martre.
If you decide to have lunch or dinner at Georges, be sure to try the Tuna Tataki or the Tigre Qui Pleure. Translated, this means The Tiger that Cries. It is a weird name for marinated grilled steak with a chilli dipping sauce and sometimes some steamed sticky rice. Honestly – it’s a great dish!
Because Georges is a very famous filming location and it’s literally at the top of one of the city’s most famous museums, I would recommend booking a table early if you would prefer to sit on the terrace.
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 7/10 – beautiful panoramic view but it’s far so the tower is small. Not every table will have a view of the Eiffel Tower so be sure to request one when booking.
- Outdoor Seating: Yes
- Be Sure to Try: Tuna Tataki, Le Tigre Qui Pleure, Steamed Salmon
- Open Hours: Open every day from 12:00 pm to 2:00 am

Le New York
📍 Address: Place Saint Antoine de Padoue, Le Chesnay | 🍽️ Cuisine: American | 💰 Price Range: €13.90 – €20.50
Delicious three course lunch, within close proximity to the Effel Tower. Pretty good value too with it being in the centre of Paris.
– Review by DanHollins
Not everyone has a large budget, and that is fine. There are some cheaper bistros and restaurants where you can have food while enjoying a view of the Eiffel Tower. Take Le New York, for instance.
Le New York is located on Place Saint Antoine de Padue and serves American food like burgers and ribs. One of their most famous dishes is the Central Park Salad.
The view from Le New York is okay. They have outdoor seating but they are located what I would describe as quite a busy road. This will mean sitting outside with a glass of wine and a view of the Eiffel Tower won’t be as relaxing as I would have liked.
There are also quite a few trees in the way. In winter and autumn, you will have a great view of the Eiffel Tower, but in summer and spring, you will only be able to see the Iron Lady through the branches and leaves of the trees.
On the other hand, food is pretty reasonably priced. Expect to pay anywhere between €13 to €20 for a main, so this is definitely one of the cheaper restaurants with a view of the Eiffel tower.
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 7/10 – Great view in autumn and winter but there are quite a few trees in the way in spring and summer.

Le Bistro Parisien
📍 Address: Port de la Bourdonnais, 75007 Paris | 🍽️ Cuisine: French | 🍽️ Price Range: €41 – €44
Great location, atmosphere and a very nice crew, not to mention the breathtaking view of the Eiffel Tower. I highly recommend it
– Review by Marla R
One of the best views of the Eiffel Tower has to be from Bistro Parisien. This is a floating bar and restaurant on the Seine, right under the Eiffel Tower, with amazing views of the Eiffel Tower, Trocadero and, of course, the Seine.
No, this is not one of those boats that offer dinners – this is just a bar and restaurant on the Seine that is moored near the Eiffel Tower. The whole restaurant is set up so you can enjoy the views of the Eiffel Tower, which is honestly great. There are large floor-to-ceiling windows and even a glass ceiling so everyone can see the Eiffel Tower.
But what about the food? Well… it’s okay. That’s it. Don’t expect anything gourmet. Don’t expect fine dining. I personally think the prices at Le Bistro Parisien are quite steep for the quality of the food, but I guess it’s the view you pay for here.
Some of the food you can expect is chicken soup, salmon or Caesar salad. A cheese and charcuterie platter (there is honestly not that much on the platter) will set you back €20, and a penne pesto €18.
But let’s be honest, you won’t book a table here for the food. It’s all about the view. If you want a similar view with better food, I would recommend booking one of the boats with a restaurant that takes you up and down the Seine. You can find some here.
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 10/10 – I mean … it is literally right there!
- Outdoor Seating: Yes
- Be Sure to Try: Suprême de poulet jaune, Pavé de saumon snacké
- Open Hours: Every day from 6:00 pm
Madame Brasserie
📍 Address: Champ de Mars, 75007 Paris | 🍽️ Cuisine: French | 💰 Price Range: €118 – €165
Fantastic experience. One of the high points of our entire trip. Service was exceptional and food and drinks were very good. Million dollar view because we selected the window table option. We will return and do this again.
– Review by Thomas H
So far, we have talked about restaurants with a view of the Eiffel Tower… but what about restaurants INSIDE the Eiffel Tower?
Well, one of the best restaurants has to be Madame Brasserie. This restaurant is located on the first floor of the Eiffel Tower and can be classed as fine dining and rather expensive. But you will have gorgeous panoramic views over Paris!
If you have some cash to spend, I would recommend booking a table here and selecting a window seat.
The menu is also great, with spiced king prawns and roasted guinea fowl breast. You can also go for trout or Cannelloni with spinach and truffled celeriac puree.
Honestly, this place is pricey. If you still would like to go without breaking the bank (too much), you can opt for breakfast. Sure, I almost fainted when I saw the price of a croissant here (5 blooming euro!) or the price of some orange juice (14 friggin euro). But all in all, if you take the breakfast formula at 22 euros, you get a croissant, a bit of bread with butter and jam, a warm drink and some juice. In the end, you are literally paying for location here, so the 22 euro will be worth it, in my opinion.
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: NA – you are IN the tower. You won’t have a view of the tower.
- Outdoor Seating: No
- Be Sure to Try: Spiced king prawns, Roast herbed guinea fowl breast
- Open Hours: 6:30 PM to 11:30 PM

L’Oiseau Blanc
📍 Address: 19 avenue Kléber | 🍽️ Cuisine: Creative French | 💰 Price Range: €95 – €120
Visited in May and ordered the tasting menu. It was amazing! I recommend a later reservation so you can see the Eiffel Tower lit up at night.
– Review by Sarahd
L’Oiseau Blanc is probably one of thé most iconic restaurants with a view of the Eiffel Tower. It was used as a filming location for many movies and series, including Modern Family.
Sure, this is a very expensive restaurant. It has no less than two Michelin stars and is located on the top floor of the luxurious Peninsula Hotel.
When looking at the menu, you will find dishes such as roasted monkfish and duck or even roast pigeon or red mullet. I am not going to lie. The prices you will pay are astronomical. The pidgeon alone is 95 euros, and the red mullet is 105 euros. This is a once-in-a-lifetime dining spot, and you will have to be ready to open up your wallet very wide.
But what about the view? Well, from the beautiful glass dome over the restaurant, you will have a gorgeous view of the Eiffel Tower and the roofs of Paris.
If you decide to book a table, I would recommend booking the corner booth on the side of the Eiffel Tower because that spot will give you the absolute best view.
Is it worth it? Would I recommend booking a table? If you have the budget to eat here, I would recommend L’Oiseau Blanc hands down!
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 9/10 – for fine diners and movie fans it is an iconic view!
- Outdoor Seating: No
- Be Sure to Try: Roasted monkfish, Colvert duck
- Open Hours: Monday to Sunday: 12:00-14:00, 19:00-22:00

Perruche
📍 Address: Top floor of Printemps Haussmann | 🍽️ Cuisine: Mediterranean | 💰 Price Range: €15 – €150
The staff and view were amazing. You are paying for that! The food was delicious but expect to pay for it. Highly recommend! But make reservations.
– Review by Elizabeth G
One of the most iconic department stores in Paris has to be Printemps Haussmann. But did you know that at the top of the department store, there is a nice restaurant with gorgeous views of the Eiffel Tower and the Parisian skyline?
Let me introduce you to Perruche. Perruche mean budgie or parakeet in French.
Perruche is absolutely gorgeous. It is literally like stepping into a Mediterranean dream. But then, of course, with the Eiffel Tower peaking out in the distance.
I absolutely love their combination of nice bright green plants and a very summery yellow. It always puts me in a great mood.
Now, when looking at the menu at Perruche, we see a lot of great Mediterranean food such as fried calamari, smoked salmon, a Chickpea socca, caprese salad, a beautiful and creamy burrata, rigatoniu and truffle tagliatelle.
The prices can be quite high depending on the dish you choose, but I would say that Perruche falls in the upper-mid tier of pricing in this write-up, with most mains costing anywhere between 30 euros and 150 euros (for veal chops for two people).
What about the view? Well, I would say it is pretty similar to Georges, where you will have a gorgeous panoramic view of the city, with the Eiffel Tower in the distance.
If you want to sit on the terrace with a view of the tower, I would recommend you book your table in advance and request a table with an Eiffel Tower view, as not all tables will have that prime view.
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 8/10 – Almost the same view as L’Oiseau Blue but from further away.
- Outdoor Seating: Yes
- Be Sure to Try: Calamars frits, Filet de boeuf
- Open Hours: 12:30 PM – 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM – 02:00 AM

6 New York
📍 Address: 6 Av. de New York | 🍽️ Cuisine: French | 💰 Price Range: €20- €76
From the minute you arrive you feel welcome this is not a ‘stuffy’ restaurant, far from it. It is warm and welcoming and you feel like an old friend.
Overlooking the Eiffel Tower you are given the choice of table before given the menu.
The chef comes to introduce himself and talks you through the menu and then you order…. And what arrives is the most incredible meal you’ve ever eaten.
If you want a treat then this is a must!!
– Review by Sarah D
Another restaurant with a view of the Eiffel Tower is 6 New York. A lot of websites and blogs mention 6 New York. The food here is amazing but the Eiffel Tower view is honestly not the best. Sure during winter you will have an amazing view of the tower, but in spring and summer you can only really see the tip of the Eiffel Tower because the trees are in the way.
That being said, the food at 6 New York is great. The restaurant is known for its amazing French cuisine. The menu is by Jerome Gangneux and you can order either A La Carte or as a menu. On the A La Carte Menu you will be able to choose from starters like Burrata, crispy spring rolls or shelled crab with herbs. They also have John Dory, Tuna and Octopus a la plancha.
If you are not a big fan of fish you can also choose one of the meats – lamb, pork belly or Simmenthal beef tenderloin. There is honestly something for everyone – unless you are a vegetarian. I did not see anything vegetarian on the menu sadly.
If you want to book a table at 6 New York, you can do so on their website. Again, I would recommend booking here either in autumn or winter as that will give you the absolute best view on the Eiffel Tower.
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 6/10 – Obscured by trees during summer and spring but the view is quite nice during winter! Not as good as the one from Le New York though.
- Outdoor Seating: No
- Be Sure to Try: Octopus a la plancha, John Dory filet meuniere style, Braised half-salt belly farm pork pallet
- Open Hours: 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM and 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM Closed on Sunday and Monday

Le Bustronome
📍 Address: 2 Av. Kléber | 🍽️ Cuisine: French | 💰 Price Range: €20- €76
Great views, great service, great food! It was easy to find, near Arc de Triomphe. Easy to book on the website. They even stopped at Eiffel Tower as it was Sparkling, so we could get out and take photos and video.
– Review by Amy
One of the things you should know about me is that I am allergic to all things tourist gimmicky. Why? because they often only exist for ‘The Gram’. In London for instance you have lots of Afternoon Tea Busses and, take it from an afternoon tea connaisseur, they are expensive and not worth it.
Le Bustronome, on the other hand, seems to be a lot more bang for your buck – even though it is still very expensive. The concept is simple: you will be dining on a bus that drives you through Paris, passing all the famous landmarks and spots. On board you will be served a gastronomic meal. Dishes can include Smoked Halinut Tartare, Tomato Bavarois or Duck Breast with New Potatoes.
Does the bus have a view onto the Eiffel Tower? Yes. You will see the Eiffel Tower a few times and even stop at a view point so you can take a video and some pictures. Obviously you won’t see the Eiffel Tower the whole time but you will see other landmarks such as Les Invalides and Arc de Triomphe.
What about pricing? Well, it’s honstly pretty expensive. For the cheapest lunch menu you will have to pay about € 70 without drinks (wine) and € 90 with for a 4-course menu. If you want to have dinner the cheapest 6-course menu would be € 120. I am going to level with you here – for that money there are much better restaurants in this list with equally good views of the Eiffel Tower. But if you like the concept of driving around Paris while eating good food – then go for it!
I have noticed GetYourGuide sometimes has deals on for Bustronome which makes it a bit cheaper so I would definately have a look if you are interested in booking! You can check the prices here.
- Eiffel Tower View Rating: 7/10 – You will only see the tower a few times but when you do the view is great!
- Outdoor Seating: No
- Be Sure to Try: Smoked Halibut Tartare, Duck breast with new potatoes
- Open Hours: Lunch at 12:15 and dinner at 7:45 pm and 8:45 pm

I love this blog! I’m from Paris and I’ve been to a lot of the restaurants on this list. Some of my favorites are L’Atelier, Le Bernardin, and La Tour d’Argent.
This list is great, but I’m torn between so many options. I’m leaning towards Les Ombres, Café de l’Homme, and Monsieur Bleu. Anybody tried these and can give some feedback? Looking for a mix of great food and a memorable view!
Hi GourmetGazer!
You’ve picked some fantastic spots! Les Ombres, located on the roof terrace of the Musée Quai Branly, has an elegant atmosphere with modern Mediterranean cuisine. Their Blue lobster and Marinated cuttlefish are must-tries.
Café de l’Homme, in Place du Trocadéro, offers a classic French dining experience. Their Ceviche of royal sea bream and Large-caliber line-caught sea bass are popular choices.
Monsieur Bleu, with its terrace in the Palais de Tokyo, blends French dishes with international flavours. Their Rock Shrimp Tempura and Miso-Caramelised Black Cod are exquisite.
In all honesty, they are all great and I would recommend all three of them. Just depends on your budget and their menus!
Stunning list! Les Ombres sounds absolutely divine!
Thanks! And yes, Absolutely LOOOOVE Les Ombres!
Wow, this list of restaurants with Eiffel Tower views is just what I needed for my Paris trip
