Le Jules Verne: Dining at the Eiffel Tower

Plan French dining at Le Jules Verne on the Eiffel Tower’s second floor, with official access details, service times and dress-code guidance.

Le Jules Verne is a French restaurant on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Dining here places you within the landmark itself, at a height the official website describes as 125 metres above the city. For planning, the most important details are the restaurant’s private-elevator access, its lunch and dinner service windows, and its formal dress requirements. This guide draws on the supplied official website information, not a firsthand visit.

The restaurant and its Eiffel Tower setting

The official website identifies Frédéric Anton as the chef and states that Le Jules Verne received its second Michelin star in 2024. That dated award statement is the basis for the recognition mentioned here; it should not be read as an independently checked assessment of a later Michelin edition.

The setting is central to the restaurant’s identity: Le Jules Verne occupies the Eiffel Tower’s second floor, with views over Paris described on its website. The supplied material does not establish particular table positions or guarantee a specific outlook from every seat.

Planning recommendation: If a particular seating arrangement matters to you, ask the restaurant directly rather than treating photographs or general descriptions of the view as a seating promise.

French cuisine: what is confirmed

Le Jules Verne serves French cuisine. The official text describes the cooking as creative and refined and credits Anton and his team. It also includes a menu section, but the supplied extract contains no dishes, tasting-menu details, prices or wine options.

There is therefore no reliable basis here for recommending a signature dish, quoting a meal budget or describing flavours. For the restaurant’s own menu information, start with the official Le Jules Verne website.

Planning recommendation: Review the menu before booking, and contact the restaurant about dietary requirements. The supplied information does not confirm which substitutions or accommodations are available.

Address and private-elevator access

The official address is:

Le Jules Verne, second floor of the Eiffel Tower, 6 Avenue Gustave Eiffel, 75007 Paris, France.

The restaurant specifies access by private elevator from Entrance 1, Allée des Refuzniks. This is the relevant arrival detail for a restaurant visit; the street address alone does not explain where to enter.

The website lists Bir-Hakeim as the metro stop and buses 42, 69, 82 and 87 for Champ de Mars. It also lists an included private valet service at 1 Avenue Charles Floquet, 75007 Paris.

Planning recommendation: Check your booking confirmation for arrival instructions and allow time to locate the designated entrance. The supplied text does not explain security procedures, accessibility arrangements or whether a dining reservation includes any separate sightseeing access to the tower. Confirm those points directly if they affect your plans.

Service times and booking checks

The supplied official website text lists service Monday through Sunday, from 12 pm to 1:45 pm and 7 pm to 9 pm. These are published service windows, not confirmation of available tables or a stated meal duration.

It also lists a closure on 13 July 2026. Check your intended date through the official booking channel, particularly if travelling specifically for the meal.

Reservations can be approached through the booking link on the official website. The restaurant lists customer service on See the official restaurant website for contact details, daily from 9 am to 10 pm, and the email address reservation.jv@lejulesverne-paris.com. Customer-service hours are separate from dining-service hours.

Planning recommendation: Before committing, review the booking terms presented for your reservation. The supplied extract does not specify deposits, cancellation charges or reservation release times.

Dress code and photograph context

The official dress code requires an elegant outfit. Shorts and sportswear are not allowed, and suit jackets are mandatory for gentlemen. The restaurant states that it may refuse access if the dress code is not respected.

Planning recommendation: Pack the required clothing rather than assuming that a day’s sightseeing outfit will be suitable for dinner.

The supplied photograph shows the restaurant entrance in April 2006. It is a historical entrance image, not a current interior photograph, and should not be used to judge today’s dining-room design or seating layout.
