With its 3 Michelin stars, Le Louis XV – Alain Ducasse at the Hôtel de Paris continues to surprise. The menu from chefs Alain Ducasse and Emmanuel Pilon, and pastry chef Sandro Micheli asserts its modernity and energy.
It is difficult to present the Louis XV without mentioning Alain Ducasse. You need a raft of superlatives to describe his impact. This native of Orthez (in southwest France) with an enduring love for the Mediterranean is a brilliant chef and businessman. Now a citizen of Monaco, he also heads up an empire of over 30 establishments with a presence on every continent.
He was just 33 years old when he was awarded three stars at the Louis XV after reaching an astonishing standard. His famous vegetable-based “Jardins de Provence” set menu, which launched here in Monaco on 27 May 1987, has been one of the touchstones of French gastronomy for the last 30 years. Here, Alain Ducasse’s signature style is brought to life by his loyal right-hand man, Emmanuel Pilon, in cuisine that masterfully celebrates the essence of the ingredients and the Mediterranean.

a month agoTo be honest, I am not impressed. The restaurant is very nice and elegant but the food was not what we expected from this calibre. The service was also not on point. We would have expected more.

a month agoBonjour !! We’re in Monaco 🇲🇨 All the dish had a perfect blend of flavors. A harmonious blend of flavors wrapped around my tongue that I could never have imagined beyond. We ate some dish and we wept. The emotional touched always seems to come in unexpected situations. In addition, even the Brahms Symphony, which sounds calm inside the restaurant, made me ecstatic. All the staff provided impeccable and thoroughly examined me and my husband’s reactions. The staff pre-checked my husband’s birthday and served for him chocolate cake as a surprise, and we were deeply moved !!! 🥹 Thank you very much.🇲🇨🇫🇷 Merci beaucoup.🇲🇨🇫🇷

8 months agoAmbience and service are superb! Staff was friendly and funny. They allow children to dine here. It is children friendly but when a baby kept crying it became disturbing. The food was well presented that covers land and sea with fresh ingredients. Couple of dishes we really liked such as the shrimp and caviar appetizer and the lamb dish as entree. However overall food tastes were not impressive. I am surprised that this restaurant keeps its 3 starts for that long. Maybe the stars are for its location and service.

a year agoLe Louis XV by chef Alain Ducasse is located in Hotel de Paris. This unique restaurant has been awarded many times and currently has 3 Michelin stars. The restaurant has a limited number of tables in a small area but the ceiling is high and stylish. I can say that this restaurant provided the best service among the restaurants I have been to in my life. The staff were professionals and knew every detail on the menu. We tried the agape menu. The chef also had surprises so the tasting journey was 3 hours. To be honest the plates looked better than it tasted. Some flavors were too strong and we could not eat some of the dishes. It's pricey but worth a visit once. Overall it was an interesting experience.
