   We reserved a table for three at 18:00 on 7 March and arrived five minutes early. Despite over 80% of the tables being vacant, we were led to a corner at the very back of the restaurant. The seating provided consisted of two small 500mm round tables, with cutlery set for two, which was obviously too small for three people. When we requested a larger table, the shorter waiter wearing glasses responded that "tables are fully booked." This was particularly surprising, given that the restaurant was mostly empty at the time, and our reservation had not specified any particular table. We noticed a round table near a long table that would have been more suitable and requested it. However, another shorter waiter also dismissed our request, repeating that "tables are fully booked." Fortunately, a taller waiter with a tattoo on his arm recognized the problem. Without hesitation, he brought us the table we had asked for, resolving the issue effectively and without further prompting. Additionally, we observed other guests being served bread and inquired about it, only to be informed that "the bread is not free." This policy seemed out of place for a restaurant of this calibre, given the pricing and our expectations. Our total bill came to $399, and we left a $30 tip. However, this was not reflective of the overall service, which fell far below standard, but rather a gesture of appreciation toward the tattooed waiter, who demonstrated professionalism and initiative. Having dined at numerous esteemed establishments, including many of the World's 50 Best Restaurants and Michelin-starred venues, we have seldom encountered service as disappointing as this. For instance, the neighbouring restaurants and Yellow, located just a couple of ten meters away, consistently deliver outstanding experiences. During our recent visit to Table in Paris—ranked 3rd in the 2024 World's 50 Best Restaurants—we had the pleasure of conversing with its owner, Bruno, and were truly impressed by the excepti

   Wonderful as always. Great service, lovely food. We wanted to stay on after our booking ended and they made us a little spot at the bar.

   I love the ambiance, dark moody lighting, vibe & service at Fratelli Paradiso. Being a vegetarian I find the menu quite limiting so I can’t order too many dishes. However I always enjoy my visit there and for me it’s about the overall experience not just the food. Always great vibe & good times at FP!
