This hidden gem serves some of the best Basque food in city! The restaurant is a stone’s throw away from the Eiffel Tower,and is perfect if you’re looking for a tasty & creative French meal.

Pastavino
Our team has unanimiously voted this as the best Italian restaurant in Paris!
The restaurant is located in a lively street of Paris and finding it will take a bit of effort! The restaurant is on the top floor of an Italian epicerie, and the menu is always upscale and fresh!

Clamato
Clamato in Paris is a super chic seafood restaurant dedicated to seafood lovers!
Run by Michelin-starred chef Bertrand Grébaut and Théo Pourriat, Clamato is actually the sister restaurant of Septime, another very intriguing French cuisine outlet. The interior design is rustle but cosy, with wood being the main theme of the restaurant and very stylish staff readily at your service. You can try wild oysters sent from Ireland or Brittany and all sorts of delicate shellfish at reasonable price (6 oysters for 16-18€). They also have an incredible selection of wine waiting for you to try! The atmosphere is quite laid-back but ideal for a romantic and casual evening in Paris.
