My husband and I had the occasion to dine at Le Gabriel for lunch in early December 2018. The restaurant is situated inside La Reserve hotel, overlooking a courtyard near Le Grand Palais, Le Petit Palais, and the Avenue des Champs-Elysées. The restaurant room itself is stunning, and a nod to high French artistocratic design and culture. Gold bedazzles the ceilings and antique mirrors line the walls. The servers are dressed in black suits, perhaps to The lunch menu is cheaper than the dinner menu and also offers several menu options depending on your budget. The lunch menu provides high level descriptions of the courses without actually providing details of the courses themselves. They call it a "blind menu."I chose the "market menu" lunch and my husband chose the "hunting menu" lunch which was a bit more expensive. All we knew was that the ingredients would represent either the local market availability or what someone might hunt, such as venison. My husband is not the biggest fan of some classic French dishes such as paté and foie gras. He also doesn't like poultry. So we should have known that a blind menu at a French restaurant could result in him getting some dishes he did not fancy.Unfortunately, that is precisely what happened. I think my husband was hoping for a slab of venison with some side dishes. But no, he got paté for his appetizer, and squab for his entrée. I had mentioned to the water in the beginning that my husband "doesn't like chicken," so when the planned dish was a close cousin to chicken, I wish they would have clarified and accommodated. This is the risk of a blind menu. For my market menu lunch, on the other hand, I was served three dishes which absolutely fancied my tastes. The lunch began with an asparagus soup, followed by a delectable scallop dish, and finished with a coconut meringue dessert. Each of my dishes was artfully presented and carefully crafted to make my mouth and soul satisfied for weeks.Le Gabriel is an excellent restaurant. I see why it has 2 Michelin stars. The service is like watching a ballet, except in a restaurant. The servers cover up the stains on your table cloth like ninjas--blink and you'll miss the action. I certainly felt as though I spoiled myself on this lunch, but I felt bad that my husband got a whole lunch that he hated. The 4 stars is not for quality of food or drinks or ambiance or the service; it is for the choice of a blind menu that can result in a diner's unhappiness. My advice to would-be Le Gabriel visitors is to be very detailed in taste preferences off the bat. Hopefully, they will accommodate you.
