Restaurant with two Michelin stars, offering high gastronomy cuisine with calibrated plates.
The Parcours Banctel route was any route: following Alain Senderens, who he was the faithful and talented arm-right for many years when he would withdraw. And then nothing happened as planned. The grand boss, finally decided to sell his case, mismanaged his communication very badly and Banctel went. An evil for a good because we find it in early January 2015 at the orders of the Gabriel, gourmet restaurant of the brand new five star hotel La Réserve. It cannot be said that the decoration is conspicuous by its originality: Jacques Garcia fat of Jacques Garcia, a remake without inspiration from Hotel Costes.
On the side of the kitchens, Jérôme Banctel, a great professional, offers a cuisine of haute cuisine, whose plates are sized to the millimeter close, with beautiful husky, like this Racan pigeon marinated in cocoa, accompanied by soup of organic buckwheat (a must) or a biologically surmounted saumon filled with daikon, fumée smoke and paste of lemon. Some more agreed plates: the milk pig from Crisp Burgos and its, carrots with cumin or roasted poultry and potatoes "leeks". In other words, it is one of the very good tables in the capital and it is not surprising that Michelin once again awarded two stars to the establishment in early 2016.

Members' reviews on LE GABRIEL
The ratings and reviews below reflect the subjective opinions of members and not the opinion of The Little Witty.
A visit to a 2-star Michelin restaurant promises a unique culinary experience only experience when visiting 2 or 3 start restaurants, and Le Gabriel in Paris certainly delivers. Its well-deserved two Michelin stars are a testament to the remarkable dining journey it offers.
The moment you step into Le Gabriel, you're greeted by an atmosphere of sheer perfection. Meticulously designed decor, impeccable lighting, and exceptional service create an environment that complements the gastronomic artistry.
The service at Le Gabriel is Michelin-level, with staff exhibiting a remarkable blend of knowledge and warmth. Each dish is served with the attention and respect it rightfully deserves.
However, it's disheartening to see some diners next to me more focused on photographing themselves or their plates than savoring the culinary masterpieces. In a restaurant where seating is limited, this practice can be a missed opportunity for true food enthusiasts.
In essence, Le Gabriel exemplifies what dining at a 2-star Michelin restaurant should be. Each dish is a masterpiece, while the ambiance and service are exceptional. The only drawback is that in such a limited-capacity venue, every seat should be cherished by those who truly appreciate and savor the art of food.
