The Michelin-starred restaurant on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower is Le Jules Verne.
Le Jules Verne occupies the tower’s second level and has its own private lift from the south pillar. Its name honors Jules Verne, the French science-fiction author whose imaginative novels made him one of the country’s best-known writers. The restaurant offers fine French cuisine alongside views over Paris.
The restaurant’s culinary leadership has changed several times. Alain Ducasse ran it from 2007 to 2017, and chef Frédéric Anton took over after the restaurant’s major renovation and reopening in 2019. Michelin awarded it a star in 2020 and a second star in 2024, so the stored wording remains correct even though the restaurant now has more than one star.
Visitors commonly confuse Le Jules Verne with Le 58 Tour Eiffel, which is on the first floor, or with the former name of the first-floor restaurant, Madame Brasserie. Le Jules Verne is specifically the landmark dining destination on level two.
