Bateau le Calife sur Paris

A truly wonderful experience from start to finish! 😊 The welcome was warm, the service impeccable, and the servers always smiling and pleasant. The dishes were delicious, bursting with flavor. All this in a charming Parisian setting, aboard a lovely, characterful vintage barge. ⚓️ A fantastic discovery, a place I wholeheartedly recommend! We had an excellent lunch. Thank you to the whole team for this lovely experience! ✨

The entire evening was delightful. Service was wonderful and they offered me a non-alcoholic alternative to the glass of champagne since I dont drink alcohol. The experience was very relaxing and enjoyable. Seeing the Eiffel Tower all lit up and flickering was amazing. Best photo we took during our trip. We highly recommend this dinner cruise and would like to thank the Les Frenchies for suggesting this experience.

Thank you. Very courteous service and excellent food.

A fabulous night gliding on the Seine River. We were surprised at the quality of the food with an excellent wait staff. I did a lot of research before booking ; with this one being a smaller capacity instead of 350 pax or more. It felt more intimate…would highly recommend Le Calife.

An experience worth having: a stylish and sophisticated vessel, delicious food, excellent wine, and impeccable service. 100% recommended.

Wonderful experience. Food was excellent. We had upper deck seating and you could not get any better view. The sea bass & lamb were definitely a 5 out of 5.

The views and meal were pretty good. The advertising versus the service we received were really bad. We paid the extra for the Royal tasting that was supposed to have paired wine with the courses. We were given the choice of a bottle of Chablis or a bottle of a red blend, and that was it. When we asked for a variety of pours, we were given attitude. So it’s worthwhile if you get the basic ticket and then just pay for your drinks separately.

Top dinner cruise, good food, beautiful boat. Super service.

We arrived at 7:45 PM as requested, and the first course wasn't served until 9:03 PM. We waited an hour and a half at our table with only a glass of champagne and four very light amuse-bouches; having to continue drinking wine the entire time without eating was long and unpleasant. The slice of foie gras was very thin, more like a mousse than a block. The lamb shank, on the other hand, was very good, but the cheese course was simply placed on the table before we'd even finished our main course, all on a small table for two (see photo). The cheese and dessert portions were also very small. We also asked for a knife, which was never brought to us. In short, you're made to wait an hour and twenty minutes seated at your table without moving, with only a glass of champagne and red wine, and then the courses are served far too quickly. At €159 per person, excluding cheese, one expects a level of service and food commensurate with the price, which unfortunately was not the case. Finally, I don't understand its Google rating, as it doesn't reflect my experience. Three stars is a more accurate assessment.

Totally loved the experience, staff was very nice and my steak and potatoes where amazing so creamy . If I had to say anything negative it would be a little bit different selection for for appetizers . Allergy’s to seafood . Not your fault , mine ! And the VIEW was spectacular OMG . So enjoyed the whole experience. Thank you very much again 🫶🏼 With love , Rosemary from Riverside, California 💜
