Imagine savoring delicious cuisine while gazing out at the breathtaking panorama of Paris. That’s the unique experience you can have at one of the Eiffel Tower’s renowned restaurants!
The Eiffel Tower has completely revamped its culinary offerings in recent years, introducing two flagship restaurants that embody Parisian elegance and culinary excellence: Le Jules Verne on the second floor and Madame Brasserie on the first.
Note: Reservations for these restaurants don’t include Eiffel Tower tickets, so you’ll need separate tickets for access.
Madame Brasserie: Parisian Charm and Gourmet Delights
Madame Brasserie, inaugurated in June 2022, offers a delightful blend of Parisian charm and culinary excellence. This fine-dining restaurant, helmed by renowned chef Thierry Marx, boasts a chic, bright ambiance and a menu featuring seasonal, locally sourced ingredients.
Guests can choose from stunning views, including the Trocadero, west Paris, or the Eiffel Tower’s own intricate structure. It’s a feast for the senses!
Lunchtime Delights

Dining times are set at 12 pm and 1:30 pm, and advance reservations are highly recommended. Bookings include a ticket to the first floor (€9.10 per person).
