About
Nestled between Alésia and Place Denfert‑Rochereau, L’Empreinte offers a refined, authentically French dining experience in an elegant setting with rich mahogany furnishings and stylish lighting. The restaurant’s two‑partner team – Jean‑François manning the dining room and Noël crafting the kitchen – blends tradition with seasonal freshness to create a menu that celebrates the very best of French cuisine. Guests can indulge in a thoughtfully curated lunch and dinner menu, with the lunchtime selection priced at €29 and the full dinner menu at €42. The menu is made entirely in‑house, showcasing classic dishes such as rabbit terrine à la foie gras, cailles à la sauce foie gras, and an array of caramel‑flamed crepes in whisky‑and‑orange sauce. Starters, mains, and desserts are crafted with care, emphasizing locally sourced produce and artisanal techniques. Wine lists complement each course, adding depth to the culinary journey. L’Empreinte welcomes guests for lunch from noon to 2:30 pm and dinner from 7:30 pm to 10:30 pm, Monday through Sunday (closed only on weekends for lunch). Reservations can be made by phone at +33 6 62 62 35 38 or through their online form. With its comfortable, wheelchair‑accessible seating and friendly staff, the restaurant is an ideal spot for couples, families, or food lovers seeking a memorable Parisian dining experience.
