Mosquée de Paris

Latin Quarter

LoginSave

Dig into one of 10 types of couscous or choose a meaty grill at this richly decorated North African restaurant tucked within the walls of the city’s art deco–Moorish mosque. The atmosphere is wonderful, though better North African cuisine can be had elsewhere in Paris. Lighter appetites can enjoy mint tea and a pâtisserie orientale beneath the trees in the tearoom courtyard.

Feeling decadent? Book a formule orientale (€68), which includes a body scrub, 10-minute massage and a lounge in the women-only hammam, as well as lunch, mint tea and a sweet pastry.
