One of the hottest Paris restaurants for several years, Septime is nearly impossible to get into. But you should still try. It's one of Paris' best.

Le Servan is of our favorite little bistros in all of Paris, and we’re not alone in that sentiment. Hit it for lunch and some unexpected flavors.

Le Baratin is a bistro in the 20th that all the chefs in Paris love. Anthony Bourdain loves it too, but that's not why to go. Go because it's amazing.

Le Temps des Cerises is a local favorite in Le Marais for French bistro classics. The menu is small, but excellent.

Au Deux Amis is an excellent late night spot in Oberkampf, which is where you'll probably end up if you're out late in Paris.

A solid, traditional brasserie in the 16th, Le Stella is good any night of the week, but it's especially useful because it's open on Sundays.
