The eclairs are indeed very good, and I would say that they are worth their € 5 – 6 price point. #1 favorite: Lemon Yuzu Very good too: chocolate and vanilla pecan A bit underwhelming: Red berries mascarpone The place itself is not comparable to the real shop of L’Éclair de Genie, it is a stall in Passy Plaza mall and I am not sure that they sell all possible flavors — but it is convenient if you live nearby!

C’est très beau, c’est bon(souvent peu ordinaire), mais horriblement cher… 5e pour un éclair mangé en 3 coups de cuillère… Prohibitif pour de la pâte à choux même à la mode… Je boycotte…(même si j’avais adoré celui avec le chocolat qui explose…) Un peu le sentiment de me faire prendre pour une pigeon, et ça ça me reste sur l’estomac bon éclair ou pas…

Un corner situé au Passy Plaza(Paris XVI ème) Des éclairs à tomber par terre: goûtez l’éclair au «caramel beurre salé» juste un délice ou l’éclair«chocolat grand crû» ouille ouille ouille Des assortiments réalisés par Christophe Adam. Comptez 5 euros pour un petit éclair mais qui saura réveiller vos papilles”

My friend said that this éclair shop was the best in the world. I concur. Upon entering the éclair shop, hundreds of specialty flavored eclairs are displayed. I ordered the HAZELNUT and the PISTACHIO flavored eclairs. Each bite was a little bit of heaven, and I wish I had more time in Paris, I would have loved to come back and enjoy more flavors. If you are ever in Paris, this is a stop that needs to be included when you travel. ENJOY!

One glance at the wonders behind the glass case of l’Éclair de Génie will tell you everything you need to know: you’ve never had a truly amazing éclair. Row upon row of delicately decorated chou logs occupy the counter space and make your choice a very difficult one. Do I buy a mango éclair? What about salted butter caramel? Hmm… but the flower ones look amazing too… Good luck with that. My advise is to buy several and share with friends. I guarantee you’ll make a splash bringing these sugary beauties to a dinner. The pastries are definitely 5 stars — I gave this location 4 stars because it’s located in a a mall… nice but not very sexy.

Located in Passy Plaza on the lower floor, this little shop sells what I call luxury pastries. There’s an amazing selection of various eclairs and chocolates. The staff were very up beat and friendly. It was about $ 6.50US(with the current conversion) for one éclair… but oh so worth it!!! It went perfect with my Starbucks coffee from upstairs!

Petite pépite découverte en allant faire quelques courses… Comment un stand d’éclair peut avoir des allures de bijouterie? Incroyable! À l’essai, l’éclair caramel beurre salé(une tuerie) et celui mangue/banane déguisé en sandwich baguette(une folie douce). Malheureusement, j’enlève une étoile pour le prix: 5 € pour UN éclair, c’est juste n’importe quoi! Sauf si le but c’est de limiter le stockage sur les hanches… :p
