A
L’Audiernes
In an annexe of the Department of the Economy & Finance, this brasserie-bar serves well-prepared and traditional French dishes to demanding civil servants. The contemporary décor gives the place a lively feel; the menu is good (although hardly original), featuring such dishes as tartare hâché (steak tartar), faux-filet (beef sirloin) and a range of main-course salads. There’s also a lovely terrace where you can sit on sunny days.

Brasserie de l’île St-Louis
Founded in 1870, this riverside brasserie enjoys a spectacular location on the Seine just across the footbridge (prime busking spot) between Île de St-Louis and Île de la Cité. Feast on old faithfuls like choucroute garnie (sauerkraut with meat), jarret (veal shank), cassoulet and onglet de bœuf (prime rib of beef) or simply revel in the riverside location over a coffee/beer/Berthillon ice cream.

Le Petit Bofinger
It’s easy to find this glassed-in dining room. Just head to the cinematic glass dome of a building, immediately on your left/right as you walk up/down the steps of the Grande Arche. The fare is typical bistro, bolstered by a good-value formule bistro (€21.80) which invites its overwhelmingly business clientele to network over saucisses de Strasbourg and choucroute (sauerkraut).

Julien
Located in the less-than-salubrious neighbourhood of St-Denis, Julien offers food that you wouldn’t cross town for. But – mon Dieu! – the décor and the atmosphere: it’s an Art Nouveau extravaganza perpetually in motion and a real step back in time. Service is always excellent here, and you’ll feel welcome at any time of day.

La Gazzetta
This néo-brasserie has gained a substantial (and international) following under the tutelage of Swedish chef Peter Nilsson who is as comfortable producing dishes like scallops with cress and milk-fed lamb confit and ice Bleu d’Auvergne cheese as he is mini anchovy pizzas. His lunchtime menu is excellent value; dinner menus involve five or seven courses!
