Creative raw dishes, but a bit too expensive.

Entirely vegan, entirely raw restaurant with creatively put together dishes and desserts. An amazing find in Paris when I was on a Raw diet.
Really enjoyed the smoothie.
Quite a few of the meals i chose had a vinegary/sour taste which was too intense for my pallette, but still very nicely put together dishes.
Don't believe it was worth the price tag but glad I tried it.

I'm glad I came back

Since I am not a fan of raw food, I have been ignoring 42 degres for a while. So I wish I've come back earlier.

We tried the set of the day which consists of an appetizer, a main and a dessert. Todays' menu was composed of a mushroom tartare, a pad thai, and a mousse with crackers. I really enjoyed the tartare; but the main and desserts where just average. So, a hit-and-miss for me.
On the other hand, the set costs 20€, so perhaps it's fair for what you get.

Luckily, we decided to try something from their regular menu. We had the Portobello burger as main, and the tiramisu as dessert. They were both fantastic!!
I really like when raw food doesn't remind me of eating a salad.

Now that I've tried the set a couple of times, I know I'm gonna skip it next time, and instead I'll try other plates from the regular menu.

Pros: yummy

Super nice food, high quality!

I was a bit sceptical before, because it serves raw food only..but I am totally fan now! This restaurant is an absolute must go if you are in Paris and want to have a fancy dinner. Perfect to have a dinner for two or small group as the restaurant is petit. Excellent service and wine advice as well!

Pros: Fancy, high quality food, excellent service

une expérience très original

Je suis allée pour le brunch du dimanche avec 2 omnivores. On sent dans la cuisine beaucoup de boulot et de créativité. Cuisine très haute qualité et beaucoup de saveurs. Le brunch est à 34€ ce que je trouve un peu cher. C'est une expérience gastronomique à faire, même si on n'est pas des fans de la cuisine cru. En plus le cadre est très beau et le serveur très à l'écoute.

Pros: le serveur, les saveurs, jolie intérieur

Cons: cher

décevant

Je ne suis pas une grande amatrice de la cuisine crue en général, mais curieuse et gourmande j'ai voulu malgré tout tester cette adresse.
Je n'ai été emballée ni par les textures ni par le goût des plats que j'ai goûté. Pour moi cela manquait tout simplement de saveur.

Pros: le vin était bon.

Cons: Le service moyen.

Wonderful raw dishes

I have been here three times, and I have always been satisfied with the quality of the dishes, their presentation, and the culinary research behind them. My favourite dishes here are the “frawmages”, the portobello mushroom burger, and the desserts. Definitely recommended.

Pros: wonderful desserts, raw vegan cheese

Cons: small tables

the worst raw vegan restaurant...

As I have been a raw vegan for some years, I have tried raw vegan restaurants and I also make them at home.
We tried juice extract, smoothies, entree, main dish, cheese plate, and dessert.
All of them were off and really disappointing, as I know raw vegan food is very delicious.

The service was also not good.

Cons: food, service, price

more of and experience that a meal

First off - don't come to this restaurant too hungry, as the dishes are small (and expensive). But as an experience of raw vegan food, it is a good restaurant.
If the 6 dishes that we ordered, I can recommend on the Mushroom burger, the 3 "cheeses" and the pear pie (the latter was extremely good in matter of fact)

Cons: the place is expensive with small dishes. The dish

Gastronomie de haut niveau et en plus tout est bio.
Véganes et non-véganes gastronomes ne peuvent que s'émouvoir des saveurs et des textures !! L'art de la cuisine est ici ! Bravo. Pour moi le meilleur restaurant.

Dinner

Went for a dinner as part of my culinary solo tour of Paris.
Cooking is my profession, interest and passion, so if I go somewhere with an aim to check out a place, my expectations are hard to meet.
42 Degres did it. I rarely go for raw food restaurants, but after doing a research regarding fine dinning in Paris, decided to give 42 Degres a try.
Took a starter, a main and a drink. Starter was a selection of 3 types of cheeses that were totally enjoyable and wasn't the usual flavors. Was good.
Regarding the main dish, was really happy with my selection. Seing what other people got, made me think that if I might have got something else, I might not be so content with the visit.
Overall, the food is made with creativity (flavors/combinations/presentation), care and delivered in a tehnically good manner.
Would probably try other places before returning, but still it's a place I would recommend.
It's a small place, so make a reservation.

Pros: Nice flavors, Friendly stuff

Cons: Price

Sunday Brunch 'All you can eat' offers a good insight into the raw food kitchen. Friendy staff, a lot of options but small space. Filling but healthy.

Le 42 Degrés me grise!

Superbe cuisine crue/vegan/bio, la trinité, quoi!
Les recettes sont recherchées et les saveurs incroyables.
Tout est dosé à la perfection.
L'addition est un peu élevée mais sinon, on irait plus souvent, et on risquerait de s'en lasser!
Cadre sympa mais pas non plus très cosy, c'est mon seul reproche.

Pros: Haute cruisine, Menu , Saveurs

Cons: Cadre un peu fade

Expensive Fat Bombs

The food was not bad although not incredible but everything was extremely fat based, apart from a tasteless algae salad (it only tasted onion).
I have been feeling bad and lethargic since I ate this meal over 14 hours ago, yet raw food is supposed to make you feel good and energised.
Some people are in the illusion that eating 90% of your calories from raw fat is healthier than eating a cooked meal based on carbohydrates. IT is not. Fat is unhealthy in excess.
Raw food is better for you if it mainly consists of carbohydrates, not if it mainly consists of FAT.
I also paid 80 EUR for a meal of two people : two drinks, two entrees and two mains. Desserts would have exploded the 100 EUR mark.
And then with these ridiculous prices we cannot even pay by card because they want to avoid the card service commission !
A great deal of work goes into the food but it's still overpriced and too fatty.

Pros: Original in Paris

Cons: Too fatty, Too Expensive, Card payments not accepted

Try the cheese plate!

When I went here, I made the mistake of ordering a very fishy-tasting homemade almond milk "paneer" with seaweed - I could barely finish it, and I'm not a picky person. It was just not to my tasting at all.

My friend and I shared a cheese platter, and it was amazing. I would like to go back just for that.

Had good dinner

It was good but we weren't too impressed. Cannelloni for starter were delicious. My boyfriend's starter- tomato with 'mozzarella' was so so. Lasagna for main dish was good, tasty but didn't meet my expectations, it lacked originality. My boyfriend liked his mushroom burger, for my taste too much mushroom but interesting concept. The 'cheeses' (3 different ones) were very good. I forgot the name of my desert - there were these 3 balls, some sauce and passion fruit, I didn't like it that much. I liked my boyfriend's dessert and so did he - it was something chocolaty. The service was good. The price high - 42 € for one menu.

horrible, passez votre chemin.

restaurant attrape-nigauds. En gros il s'agit d'un local dépourvue de cuisine et de chef, qui se reconverti dans de la restauration tres cher payé et juste pas bon. Le client est bien mystifie. la deco est correct, l'endroit propre, les serveurs vêtu de noir, en uniforme, qui vendent et tartinent le clients en ventant le mérite de la maison. On vante les plats, on explique les concepts... toute est soit disant délicieux. on nous fait même commander les desserts dés le début car soit disant tout est frais et préparé minute... en fait non. tout est pré-fait, on nous sert des légumes juste crus et rapés, vainement assaisonné sans talent auxquels ont donnent des appellations attractives. idem pour les dessert, tous sont déjà fait, et infâmes. ceci n'est pas de la cuisine. c'est de la tartuferie. On justifie des plats naze par le coté sain et helsy, cuisine soit disant le plus proche de l’état naturel de l'aliment blabla... pour dissimulé de la restauration et de la cuisine qui n'en n'ai pas, et pour vendre un Etablissement sans chef et sans infrastructure incapable de pondre une recette correcte... l'addition est hors de prix, et la maison ne prend que du cash. Evidemment quand on arrive à ce moment, on à bien fait le tour du concept

Bonjour Madame, Monsieur,

Tout d'abord je suis désolée que notre cuisine ne vous ait pas plu. Nous ne pouvons pas plaire à tout le monde, peut être que le plat que vous avez choisi n'a pas convenu (infâmes, tout de même, si vous souhaitez venir développer ceci avec nous en discutant, nous sommes très ouverts..), mais nous avons de nombreux mets à proposer, peut être une prochaine fois ceux ci vous plairont, nous changeons de carte très régulièrement, suivant les saisons et les propositions de nos fournisseurs.

Pour ce qui est d'être dépourvu de cuisine, si vous entendez par là que nous n'avons pas de fours, c'est normal, nous sommes RawVegan, donc cru. Nous désirons garder dans nos plats un maximum de vitamines, enzymes et nutriments, qui se détériorent avec la cuisine cuite. Pour ce qui est du chef, je serai ravie de vous le présenter, il s'appelle Fabien Borgel et nous sommes fiers de son travail.
Nous sommes ouverts tôt le matin pour préparer les courses que nous sommes allés chercher à l'aube, je vous invite à passer voir en matinée, vous pourrez vérifier par vous-même que nous faisons tout le matin et sur place.

Nous expliquons le concept oui, car nous ne sommes pas un bistrot, une brasserie classique. Nous proposons depuis bientôt 3 ans une cuisine bio, vegan, cru, de saison et au maximum local, ce qui explique aussi une addition plus élevée que dans des restaurants non bio, qui vendent peut être des choses surgelées ou préparées à l'avance.

Je ne pense pas que nous sommes un "attrape nigauds", car nous croyons en nos produits, en notre mode de vie. Nous avons à coeur de partager nos valeurs avec nos clients et amis.
Pour ce qui est de nos recettes "même pas correctes", nous avons de nombreux habitués, et servons de nombreux événements en tant que traiteur, les clients des 2 cotés en redemandent.

Enfin, sachez que nous sommes toujours preneurs des remarques de nos clients, nous avons entendu vos plaintes, nous sommes ouverts à la discussion, aux échanges. Nous aurons plaisir à vous rencontrer.

Je vous souhaite une très belle journée,

Bien à vous,

Hélène Del Beato et toute l'équipe du 42 Degrés

Raw chic-a-licious

My partner isn't a big fan of raw foods... or I should say he wasn't until 42 degres! We were both impressed by the food. It was inventive and tasty. The service was good, despite the place being absolutely packed. Reservations are essential. The cheeses are sublime. The ambiance was buzzy and fun. It's not cheap, but good raw food never is in my experience. Go if your budget permits!

Pros: Delicious, Buzzy, Great service

Cons: Not for all budgets

A delicious but expensive experience

First time i ate in a raw restaurant. The food was delicious, creative and original, which is great because i am picky and often disappointed by vegan restaurants. But it's too expensive, even for Paris. We ordered a bottle of wine and when we saw the bill, it was 38 euros the bottle! I would definitely advise you to try this unique restaurant... if you can afford it.

Pros: creative food, nicely dressed, healthy

Cons: expensive, very small restaurant

Interesting and delicious experience

I wasn't so sure about coming here, having never really gone for the whole raw food experience. However, I was pleasantly surprised and I would definitely go back.
The waitress was very helpful in explaining everything, the food was beautifully presented, and I left feeling full but not over-full. We had a starter, main and a glass of wine each, and it cost 33 euro per person. For an evening meal in Paris, I thought this was very reasonable for the quality of food.
We were there quite early in the evening, and it was no problem getting a table. However, it did get busy later.

Pros: Interesting menu, Good wine list

Cons: None, it was great!

À fuir

Restaurant hors de prix (34€ pour un buffet presque vide qui tient sur une table deux personnes et 34€ supplémentaires si quelqu'un prend une bouchée de votre assiette). Et en plus, le peu de nourriture présent est dégueulasse !

Pros: Aucun

Cons: Prix, Choix, Serveur mal aimable

get the cheese plate

The vegan cheese plate (frawmanges, €15) was easily the most exciting and creative dish I have EVER had. 5 vegan cheeses, homemade, with an apple spread. It's worth going just for this. Simply incredible. The desserts were also very good.

I got the sweet potato pasta as an entree, came with seaweed and avocado sauce. I didn't love it, which is why I'm giving four stars despite the dumbfounding cheese plate. My boyfriend did love his dinner, veggie burger.

Unique and fabulous experience!

We tried to go for dinner to 42 Degres on several occasions, without reservation, but it was always full. We finally booked ahead of time and we are glad we did it! The food at 42 Degres is spectacular! It is incredible to see and to taste what the chef is able to create with raw products! The presentation is sublime and vibrant with colors. The menu is very short, but sophisticated, focusing on seasonal ingredients. We tried almost all the dishes available the evening we dined in. Each one of them was phenomenal, bursting with flavor and freshness. The service was flawless too. Our waiter was very informative and was happy to answer to all our questions. We had the chance to meet the owner and the chef after the dinner to congratulate them. Their passion for what they are doing shows in every aspect. 42 Degres is a 'must try' for anybody visiting or living in Paris and should be highlighted in every guide about the city ! The prices are very reasonable considering how much work is involved in the dishes' preparation and the high quality of the ingredients. We can't wait to be back!

Pros: Food, Presentation, Service

Cons: None!

good food, expensive

I had lunch here. The food was delicious but quite expensive. I'd come back for a nice dinner but probably not again for lunch. That said they do have a daily lunch option that is more affordable which I did not have.

Great and creative vegan raw food

I had dinner in this 100% raw and vegan restaurant, and have never regretted it. I've already eaten in other raw vegan places in Canada, in the USA, in Netherlands, but this place is definitely my favorite for raw food. I am not particularly fond of raw food but this dinner showed me I can definitely like it. I had a mushroom cream for starter, very yummy and so nicely presented. Then, I took the cromesquis and the raw burger with kale chips: astonishing. And finally, I chose the lemon cheesecake: amazing. Portions are not huge (that's why I took two main dishes) and prices are in line with Paris lifestyle... But the experience definitely worth it! I plan to come back again to try their raw vegan cheeses.

Pros: excellent raw food, organic produce, 100% vegan, wines

Cons: a bit expensive for not huge portions
