Guy Savoy Review

Guy Savoy is undoubtedly one of the top chefs in France, and his namesake restaurant caters to diners who want a three-star experience they can understand. You won't find molecular hijinks or a ton of unfamiliar ingredients here -- just beautiful dishes composed of luxury ingredients and accented by what many feel is the best service in town. The signature starter is a bowl of truffled artichoke soup topped with shavings of aged Parmesan and served with a truffle buttered brioche for dipping. The menu changes seasonally but might include baby peas with poached quail's egg, or Breton lobster served inside a cloud of (dry ice) vapor. Don't be shy when the outstanding cheese cart comes around because the kind servers are happy to box up any desserts that you don't finish.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
