I stop here for dessert whenever i am on this side of the city open late, good value, good wine, good desserts if a paris end restaurant ever disappoints me, i make up for it by going to the european for dessert! staff know their stuff, never seem to begrudge late diners (which is common) and desserts always come up...

Sat outside in the Autumn sun, pretended was in Europe & ate well, read the papers and watched the world go by with great coffee, & a lovely full breakfast. Definitely recommend More

Skillful hands in the kitchen not afraid to serve trusted receipes, also willing to go the extra lengths required to produce mouth watering dishes from less fashionable ingredients.

I had the rabbit and leak pie with prunes double yum... wine is dear as poison but plenty available by the glass. Very noisy, look at moi place but well worth the experience. More

From the street the European is very underwhelming but open the heavy wooden doors and you enter a cosy French styled restaurant with an emphasis on friendly welcomes and classic fine dining service. The wine list is purely European (funny that) but makes you open you horizons to wines from around Europe. Try a few by the glass to get... More

This place was recommended to us for breakfast by a top NZ chef, however by the time we got there they were on the lunch menu. The food was outstandingly good & the Potted Prawns were to die for!! Only downside was we almost seemed to get forgotten -(maybe a staff changeover?) & the service was quite slow. Nevertheless, we... More
