Le Felix Faure sur Paris

31/07/2026: It is a very lovely place with great service and the food is by all means not bad, but it still left me a bit disappointed. On another day this might be completely different, but the Canard Courgette i had was a bit troubled. If you’ll make a dish thats loaded in courgette and give it different forms it would just be more impactful if the roasted ones were more boldly and longer browned for greater contrast with the fresh ones, also at that stage courgette develops wonderful new caramelized notes i was hoping for. For such a small and varied kitchen to attempt an XO Sauce is pretty brave, so naturally it was lacking in the full umami depth that it can have with more complex preparation. With the meat i also had some problems, because the knife i was given was actually not that sharp. In the dessert a very standard artificial bowl of vanilla icecream blocked out the sensitive rhubarb flavor. Would i recommend going for the price? Yes. Did the food i ate met my expectations? No.
