Le Pré Catelan features an opulent ambience in a stately old building in one of the city’s most beautiful parks. The execution and elegant plating of chef Frédéric Anton’s 10 to 13-course tasting menu is beyond reproach, earning the restaurant 3 Michelin stars.

L’Ambroisie has maintained a 3-Michelin-star rating continuously for more than 30 years yet isn’t much favored by contemporary, younger diners looking for a more innovative and less traditional menu.

Just a short collection of a la carte offerings, immaculately executed and elegantly plated.

Accommodating about 25 diners in two small rooms. A sleek, contemporary décor sets the stage for Chef Gaël Orieux’s subdued approach. In a city where a burger, fries and drink can easily empty your pockets, the three-course set-price menu at lunch is one of the city’s best values.
