“ You must go here! The food was delicious, the cocktails were bang on, the staff were so nice! They had a little jazz band playing out on the terrace, and they said in winter they have someone playing down stairs and it looks so cozy, will be back not only in summer but winter to check it out! Have a look at their website to see all of the shows they have coming up! Highly recommend ”
“ We had a lovely time celebrating my partner’s birthday with s small group of friends. The music was wonderful, and the setup of the stage with the windows behind the musicians and watching the hosts go by was magical! We were also struck by how laid back and friendly the staff were. Very atypically chill! The Saint germain spritz was delicious and refreshing. The food was a bit lacking in flavor and presentation but it was fine. Overall a great night out. Merci beaucoup! ”
“ Very nice setting in a permanently docked river boat on the rive gauche side of the Seine with a view of Notre Dame. Music was excellent and the service was very nice. ”
“ The food was terrific and the service was superior. My French is awful but I am trying to learn. When I telephoned to make the reservation the gentleman I spoke with said, "Should we continue in English or would you like to speak French?" I thought that was remarkably considerate and I chose to continue in English as I was making reservations for a large group. We were received warmly and made to feel very welcome. Service was prompt and the atmosphere, with live music on the Seine was memorable. My wife and I can't wait to return again before we leave Paris. Five stars is not enough in our opinion! ”
“ From the moment we stepped into Le Dela Son Terre, we knew we were in for something special. Alexander was absolutely fantastic—warm, welcoming, and incredibly informative. His passion for what he does truly elevated our experience. The drinks? Extraordinary. Every cocktail was a masterpiece, both in flavor and presentation. The music and ambiance created the perfect vibe—sophisticated, lively, and full of Parisian charm. This place is a true gem in the heart of Paris, and we genuinely can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an unforgettable night out! ”
“ We were able to get reservations on a Sunday evening with about three hours' notice. The staff was welcoming and we enjoyed a live jazz concert while we ate. Alex was our server and made sure that we had everything that we needed while not intruding on our meal or our conversation. We were on the lower deck, so did not purchase tickets for the concert and could not see the musicians, but could easily hear the concert above us. We ate and drank as the sun set behind the Seine and Notre Dame for a truly magical evening. The food was delicious, and the setting is extraordinary. The price was no more than you might expect to pay at any nice restaurant. Highly recommended. ”
“ Very nice atmosphere and views. Nice live band. We went randomly on a Saturday. We didn’t book. We sat on a reserved table but luckily the reserved guests didn’t show up. Almost all of the tables i saw outside were reserved. Didn’t have much interaction with the waiter. Didn’t check up on us much. We just got drinks (lemonade). ”
