The Best Restaurant in Montmartre, Paris

Background Illustration for Restaurants

Perched above central Paris, Montmartre is buzzing with a hip vibe. Idyllic as the portrayal of Montmartre might seem in Jean-Pierre Jeunet's film Amélie, it's surprisingly close to reality. Though decidedly out of the way, Montmartre is still one of the most desirable areas in Paris, seamlessly blending the trendy and the traditional. The less picturesque neighborhood around Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est is making its mark on the culinary scene: besides classic brasseries, tucked-away bistros, and the city's most authentic Indian restaurants, you'll find a new generation of cafés and gastrobistros exploding onto the scene.

This "bistronomic" (think "bistro" and "gastronomic") outpost set in a classic Art Nouveau--era bistro—complete with romantic mosaics and a marble bar that made it a favorite meeting place of the Surrealists—draws a lively food-centric crowd that's wild about chef Charleyne Valet's tasty shareable plates. Bistro favorites include egg parfait with smoked potato mousse and sunchoke chips, a delicious riff on grandmère's lentil soup, or haddock with raisins and almonds all served with a small but deftly curated selection of natural wines.
