Description

A historical establishment founded in 1883 and run by the Rostang family since 1996, Le Dessirier is an elegant contemporary brasserie specialising in fish and seafood. Chef Olivier Fontaine cooks up precise and flavoursome cuisine, in which tradition meets modernity: minced scallops and truffles, bouillabaisse, cod aioli, or squid with Coco de Paimpol beans and seasonal mushrooms. Oysters and shellfish are the final flourish on the menu. For dessert, the chocolate soufflé is an ode to tradition. A buzzing, upscale venue firmly rooted in Paris.

Review summary

Dessirier specializes in seafood, with customers consistently praising the freshness and quality of ingredients like lobster and oysters. Service experiences vary significantly; while many find the staff professional and attentive, others report aloofness or slow response times. The ambiance suits family celebrations and private dining, though some guests noted issues with cleanliness and privacy. Value is a point of contention; despite high food quality, prices are considered steep by several reviewers, particularly regarding beverages and small plates. Overall, the restaurant offers a refined seafood experience best suited for diners prioritizing ingredient quality over cost-effectiveness.
