No question, L’Essentiel was one of the best meals I’ve had in all of France. The whole menu is amazing and we had a hard time choosing what to get. We had the octopus, tuna steak, clam pasta, and chocolate cake. The food was unbelievably good and perfectly prepared. We also had cocktails which were very good but a little pricey. Lastly, every single person who works here was very kind and seemed to care about their restaurant and product, and we had an amazing time here. We’re definitely coming back here next time we’re close. Meal type: Lunch Price per person: €50–60 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
