“Celebrated my birthday, dining inside Eiffel Tower. It’s a lifetime memory now. Madame Brasserie dining experience is so elegant and upscale. From service to food, everything was excellent. I am a vegetarian, who doesn’t eat egg and meat. Online menu wasn’t very clear about veg options however the physical menu provided inside the restaurant has good selection of veg items. Our waiter, Adrian was very patient and explained the menu. He also understood my requirements/dietary restrictions very clearly and gave great suggestions accordingly. I’d highly recommend trying out this experience”
