L'Ambroisie: how to get a reservation

To book at L'Ambroisie, use the Zenchef widget on ambroisie-paris.com or call +33 1 42 78 51 45. The booking horizon is approximately two rolling months, with no published opening time. Early morning on the day your target date enters the two-month window is the best approach.

Founded in 1981 and installed under the arcades of Place des Vosges since 1986, L'Ambroisie carried three Michelin stars for 37 years under Bernard Pacaud. Since June 2025, the kitchen is led by Shintaro Awa, trained at Bocuse and then over a decade at Le Bristol under Éric Fréchon; the 2026 Michelin guide awarded two stars following this transition. The room is intimate, the menu is à la carte only, and the setting — 17th-century décor on the most beautiful square in Paris — makes it one of the city's most contested tables. Cancellations appear on Zenchef as soon as they are entered, often a few days before service; Le Dernier Couvert alerts you the moment a slot opens.
