About Girafe Paris

Girafe Paris is a high-end restaurant located at Place du Trocadéro in Paris, France, specializing in refined seafood and French cuisine. Set in the Musée de l'Homme complex, it is known for its stylish Art Deco-inspired interior and one of the city’s most iconic terraces with direct views of the Eiffel Tower. The menu typically features fresh fish and shellfish, seasonal French dishes, and an extensive wine list aimed at both locals and international visitors seeking a luxury dining experience.

A charge from “GIRAFE Paris” on your card is most likely related to a meal or drinks consumed at the restaurant, which may include à la carte dining, a set menu, or bar charges. The amount can be higher than average due to the restaurant’s fine-dining positioning and optional additions such as champagne, cocktails, or premium seafood platters. If you left a gratuity on a card payment, you may see a final charge that is slightly higher than the initial authorization slip after the tip is added.

To verify the charge, you can check your email inbox for a booking confirmation if you reserved online, or look for a paper receipt from the date in question. If you have questions or believe there may be an error, contact Girafe Paris directly using the contact information on their official website, providing the transaction date, amount, and the last four digits of your card. For disputed charges, your bank or card issuer can also initiate a formal dispute while you attempt to resolve the issue with the restaurant’s management or reservations team.
