One of my all-time favorite spots. The white jacketed servers add to the ambiance of this well-known French eatery’s reputation. The reservations are hard to come-by, but it is well worth a visit if you can snag one. The bricks of foie gras with warm baguettes, and their roast chicken with matchstick french fries are what fills my dreams. The escargot, veal chops, scallops, and extended wine list are excellent pairings to a lovely long meal in this establishment.
Closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. Reservations can be made via your hotel concierge two weeks in advance, if you ask nicely. :)

LouLou is located in the Musée des Arts Décoratifs which has the unique ability to be located so close to the Jardin des Tuileries and the Louvre. The ambiance of the restaurant marries perfectly to the view of the gardens and their delicious pasta and pizza dishes.
We enjoyed a 7:30/ 8pm reservation that allowed us to enjoy the sunset and explore the gardens after dinner.

A unique establishment that only serves steak and frites. The servers are quick and attentive, and will ask your preference of rare/ medium. Le Relais de l’Entrecôte does not take reservations and it is best to come a little before opening to avoid any lines (~11:30am).
The service starts with a side salad and then half of your steak will be served. Once you are done, you will receive the other half with a replenishment of frites! Ending the meal with the profiteroles off their desert menu also doesn’t hurt.

Caviar Kaspia’s baked potato with crème fraîche and caviar are what dreams are made of. We enjoyed an exquisite luncheon of one of their preset meals. Their servers are well-rehearsed and are impeccable.
Would highly recommend a stop here to enjoy a champagne + caviar meal.

Cafe Laperouse is a great spot to go for brunch. You can come enjoy its famous croque royal after your visit to the Louvre.

A great place to go during the summer. Your hotel concierge can help you make a reservation on Girafe’s balcony for a sunset meal. I would recommend coming for appetizers and drinks to enjoy one of the best views of Paris.
Address: 1 Pl. du Trocadéro et du 11 Novembre, 75016 Paris, France

The atmosphere of the restaurant leaves a bit to be desired. However, the food is well worth it. Club Marigny offers the same menu as Hotel Costes, right on the Champs-Élysées.
Definitely go to try their tom yum sea bass with matchstick french fries, cheesecake, and pavlova.
Reservations can only be made same day.

A great Italian restaurant with a beautiful atmosphere. The pasta and pizza are divine. Pink Mamma is a great spot for families and couples for lunch or dinner.

An incredible Japanese restaurant that offers udon, tempura, and all of the traditional fare. Sanukiya is a great spot to seek out if you need a break from traditional French dishes.
