What are the best restaurants in Paris?
The best Paris restaurant is the right table for your neighborhood, budget and occasion—not the restaurant appearing on every global list. Build a short list across classic bistros, modern French cooking, destination tasting menus and excellent neighborhood restaurants, then reserve according to each release window.
A better way to choose
For each dinner, compare three places within the same area and price level. Check the current menu, recent French reviews, closing days and whether the dining room suits the occasion. Do not commute 45 minutes for a restaurant that has a better equivalent near your afternoon plan.
Reservations are part of the itinerary
Booking windows vary by restaurant and should be checked for your dates. Our Paris restaurant reservation guide explains how we suggest tables, refine the choices with you and handle the reservations you approve, subject to availability.

Where do Parisians find restaurants?
Current local press, trusted critics, neighborhood knowledge and recent word of mouth are more useful than one permanent top-ten list.
