A look at restaurant excellence in France

In the world of fine dining, a star is more than just an accolade—it’s a testament to a restaurant’s dedication, precision, and passion for hospitality. But behind every exceptional dining experience is a seamless reservation journey, one that starts long before a guest takes their seat. 

A famous guide reveals its latest stars in France, it’s worth noting that currently 40% of best restaurants in the country trust Zenchef to manage their reservations and guest relationships. This isn’t just about technology; it’s about understanding the nuances of fine dining and providing tools that enhance—not interfere with—the experience restaurateurs strive to create.

A trusted partner for the best in the industry

For chefs and restaurant owners, every guest interaction matters. The reservation experience sets the tone for what’s to come, ensuring that diners feel valued before they even arrive. Zenchef offers an intuitive, customizable platform that allows restaurants to maintain control over their bookings while creating a seamless experience for their guests.

Beyond bookings, Zenchef’s tools help restaurants protect their bottom line. No-shows remain a persistent issue in the industry, but thanks to integrated features like prepayments, no-show radar, reconfirmation communication, and credit card guarantees, best restaurants using Zenchef have reduced their no-show rate to just 0.8%. In February 2025 alone, these features helped secure an average of €52K per month in deposits, ensuring that empty tables don’t translate into financial losses.

Top restaurants: a reflection of excellence, not technology alone

The relationship between technology and the top restaurants has sparked conversations in the industry. Some claim that certain platforms influence a restaurant’s ability to retain its star, but the reality is clear: a star is awarded based on culinary mastery, consistency, and guest experience. No booking platform can change that.

More than reservations: building guest relationships

A great dining experience extends far beyond securing a reservation. Zenchef provides best restaurants with tools to nurture guest relationships, from personalized marketing campaigns to seamless integrations with social media platforms like Instagram Reserve, allowing potential diners to book directly from a restaurant’s profile.

For restaurants committed to excellence, the right technology isn’t about trends or gimmicks—it’s about having a partner who understands their craft. As we celebrate the best in gastronomy, we’re proud to stand alongside so many remarkable chefs and restaurateurs, helping them create unforgettable dining experiences, one guest at a time.
