La Fontaine Gaillon is back in all its splendor! Come and rediscover our iconic address, where history blends with refined French cuisine and the magic of one of the most beautiful terraces in Paris.

Once owned by Gérard Depardieu, we're reopening the doors of this Parisian institution after renovation (by interior designer Lázaro Rosa Violán), under the aegis of the Fitz Group.
Fitz Group has chosen the talent and personality of young chef Marie-Victorine Manoa. At the age of 30, Marie-Victorine Manoa has worked at the most demanding pianos, from René Redzepi's Noma in Copenhagen to Daniel Humm's Eleven Madison Park in New York, and Alex Atala's D.O.M in Sao Paulo.

In an intimate, hushed atmosphere, you can experience refined cuisine, based on the pleasure of sharing a convivial moment.

    The food and service was impeccable. To start, we had the herring and escargot, both of which were incredible. The herring was not what I expected, but it proved all doubt wrong as it was delectable. The escargot was more tender than what I’ve had before. For our mains, my friend, probably had the most tender and delicious feel that was crispy on the outside. I had a superb beef tartare which exceeded my expectations. My waiter Antoine was knowledgeable and lively and gave excellent wine suggestions.

    Excellent food - the sole meunière for two is a great choice, perfectly cooked with subtle seasoning.

    We definitely underestimated how good the food would be. It exceeded our already high expectations. And the staff was very welcoming and friendly. We had a good laugh and enjoyed the ambiance.

    We had reservations for 10:30am - arrived at the restaurant and it was closed! The restaurant didn’t even open until 12! We shouldn’t have been able to make a reservation. We were very disappointed

    We had a wonderful dining experience! Had the sole meuniere for two and it was our best meal in Paris. The staff was friendly and helpful as well.

    We had the Sole Meunière for two and it was delicious! I did not realize that it came with both frites and salade and, being American, I ordered a green salad with a cheese course of goat cheese as a starter. I wish that the waiter would have told us that the salade was included with the meal so we would not have ordered it for a starter. The restaurant is expensive. Not being a Parisian and understanding the complete dinner experience we ended up ordering the extra salad when ordering the goat cheese, which was also delicious, would have been fine. Other than that confusion, we enjoyed the entire dining experience and would recommend this restaurant
