Don’t miss out on these amazing restaurants in Paris!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\n

Acte II<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Make a reservation for this amazing rooftop bar and restaurant to ensure a table with an amazing view. Nestled on top of a seven-story building, Acte II<\/a> is the best quality barbeque you’ve ever visited, smells of aged beef and freshly grilled lobster, served next to seasonal and locally sourced products means you’ll be overordering.<\/p>\r\n

The Japanese chef Masahide Ikuta has worked in some of Paris’ most celebrated kitchens and his Japanese approach to French produce is not to be missed. Plus, from the middle of the trendy Marais neighborhood<\/a>, you have a totally different view of Parisian zinc rooftops and the Pompidou Centre<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

J\u00f2ia<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

J\u00f2ia<\/a> is the second restaurant by H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Darroze, who was voted the best female chef in the world<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

J\u00f2ia’s unique take on French-Basque cuisine makes it a must. The menu\u00a0revolves around comfort food from Darroze\u2019s homeland just outside the French Basque Country, with an added touch of global flavors. Roasted chicken from the Landes region is a must try, and so is the fusion of cr\u00eapes mille-feuille<\/em> and matcha.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To quench your thirst, you\u2019re in luck: one of Paris\u2019 most unique wine lists is here. All of the vintage wines are made by female winemakers, or vigneronnes<\/a><\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Looking for a Parisian restaurant where you can enjoy amazing food and wine pairings? J\u00f2ia is the place to be!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

David Toutain<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

David Toutain<\/a> serves some of the most interesting and boldest food in Paris.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Normandy-born Toutain, who also used to work with Alain Passard at Arp\u00e8ge, holds two Michelin stars as well as a third star for sustainability<\/a>. The restaurant\u2019s daily-changing menu is filled with inventive and beautifully presented dishes. The flavors are as unexpected as they are delicious: think grilled eel with black sesame sauce, or Toutain\u2019s signature egg yolk with cumin caramel creme.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Aux Bons Crus<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Aux Bons Crus<\/a>, a traditional Paris bistro<\/a> full of old world charm, features a classic roadside restaurant interior, from the red-and-white checkered tablecloths to the plastic bread baskets.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Expect simple but characterful dishes with homely flavors like the classic entrec\u00f4te steak or pot-au-feu<\/em> (beef stew). The cellar has an extensive wine list, making it easy to find a perfect match for your meal.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

La Bourse et la Vie<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

La Bourse et la Vie <\/a>is a gem of an old-fashioned bistro. It\u2019s run by Daniel Rose, an American chef trained in France who first gained fame with his French restaurant in Manhattan, Le Coucou<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Rose is passionate about traditional French cooking and bringing old recipes to life. He excels in comforting classics like veal pot-au-feu<\/em> and roasted chicken. But the star of the menu is his famous steak-frites, which are unmatched anywhere in the city.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Dining at bistros in Paris has to be one of our favorite things to do in the French capital!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Septime<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Your stars have aligned if you’ve managed to get a table at the coveted Septime<\/a> restaurant. True trailblazers, Septime have had a 100% natural wine list since the beginning, and literally every other trendy restaurant in Paris has followed suit.<\/p>\r\n

Living up to the hype, Septime is the essence of French contemporary gastronomy, hand foraged and amazing quality produce reworked to perfection. With more of an emphasis on vegetables as the years pass, Septime wasn’t only a trailblazer in natural wine, but also in the changing French opinions of a vegetable-led menu.<\/p>\r\n

L’Avant Comptoir du March\u00e9<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n
\r\n

No list of Paris best restaurants would be complete without an entry from inventor of “bistronomie” Yves Camdeborde. The c<\/span>elebrated and now celebrity chef is famous for pairing the relaxed, informal dining of a bistro with the excellent quality and perfectly conceived plates of a gastronomical temple. And voil\u00e0 –<\/em> “bistronomie” was created.<\/p>\r\n

He’s taken over a corner of Saint Germain, and we think l’Avant Comptoir du March\u00e9<\/a> is the best example of what he does. Raucous and rowdy after 9pm, the standing only bar is jammed full, the terrasse outside spilling into the street, and taking over the archways of the market. Rowdy or not, the busy cooks in their open kitchen send out amazing small plates constantly, and everything is totally delicious.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Small plates in Paris? Oui, s’il vous plait!<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Hugo & Co<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

After the huge success of his first restaurant, Cambodian-born chef Tomy Gousset opened Hugo & Co<\/a>, a chic Parisian bistro with a New York vibe. Needless to say, it was an instant hit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Hugo & Co’s menu is nothing short of extraordinary. Inspired by international street food, it\u2019s full of delicacies like steamed artichokes with curried hummus, and smoked mackerel with shiitake mushrooms. With main courses at reasonable prices, this is an excellent place to savor gourmet street food in Paris.<\/p>\r\n
