Premium tier
Black Caviar and Maria carry the broadest reported ranges. A September 2025 visit report recorded narrower live ranges than the May 2026 commissioned notes, which is a reminder that a night's available selection is not the same thing as the full menu ladder.
Midrange tier
Little Duck, Merci, Nancy, La Belle, and The Bank provide lower starting points, but live selection may be smaller.
Avoid referral pricing
Arrive independently and request the public price card. A driver or guide referral can change the opening quote.
Checklist
- Set a hard spending ceiling.
- Ask what each tier changes.
- Confirm payment method.
- Do not pay an unofficial intermediary.
- Keep transport independent.
