The Wine Gate

We stopped by Wine Gate at Galeries Lafayette for a glass of champagne and ended up turning it into a little Parisian indulgence! Our server was so charming and persuasive that we were soon enjoying fresh oysters alongside a generous glass of Taittinger Rosé. Why not? The service was impeccable, the view was absolutely stunning, and the whole experience felt quintessentially Parisian. A word of warning, though: champagne, oysters, and a luxury department store under one roof can be a rather dangerous combination for your wallet! After a glass or two of bubbles, those beautiful designer purchases suddenly seem like very reasonable decisions. A fabulous spot to pause, sip, indulge, and soak up the magic of Paris!

Todo muy bueno

We have been to The Wine Gate many times while in a Paris. It’s amazing to sip champagne, enjoy caviar and enjoy the beautiful view. This trip, we had Nayan as our server and he was nothing short of amazing! Had us try champagne before committing to a bottle and serving up some finger foods to hold us off till dinner. Amazing service, amazing atmosphere and this will continue to be a stop for us each trip! Merci!

I stopped by Wine Gate on my own and ended up having such a lovely experience. I had champagne, caviar, and beef tartare, which felt like the perfect little Parisian treat. The view was absolutely beautiful and made the experience feel even more special. I especially appreciated how welcoming the server was. They were genuinely kind, attentive, and made me feel completely comfortable dining alone. The combination of the food, champagne, atmosphere, and view made this a memorable stop during my time in Paris. Definitely a place I’d recommend if you’re looking for somewhere with a beautiful setting and great hospitality. 🥂✨

Nayan was great. Perfect stop, breath taking architecture, knowledgeable staff. Friendly. Kind.

Notre serveur, Nico (pour les intimes), il est top! Sa connaissance des vins, son entregent, sa polyvalence, nous donne envie de revenir encore et encore. Même si vous venez que pour son sourire, vous serez servis. Merci pour tout! Mention spéciale à Rami qui est une touche de bonheur ambulante! Notre rêve: que Nico revienne avec nous au Canada afin de devenir notre sommelier personnel! Quand le serveur nous appelle par notre nom, nous sommes vendus!
