For his first restaurant after twelve years in the Costes group, Quentin de Fleuriau wanted to create a truly unique place, in this corner of the Faubourg Saint-Germain that he particularly likes since it is here that he grew up.
For the decoration, he chose decorator and antique dealer Florence Lopez, who created a multi-faceted place, whose atmosphere changes throughout the day, bucolic during the day and more intimate in the evening. A deliciously shaded terrace, a bar worthy of the wildest Parisian years and, here and there, cozy spaces that lend themselves as well to conversation as to tasting.
In the kitchen, Quentin de Fleuriau wanted to preserve the values of a true French bistronomy even if the chef often likes to revisit it. Delicious savory and sweet surprises for foodies, including those who have chosen to be vegan.
But we also come here for exceptional events since Ma Kiss Room, created by the artist Mathias Kiss, can be privatized.
Following the success of his restaurant Aux Prés, Cyril Lignac was bound to open an additional place to cater to the many unfortunate customers unable to book a table when Friday came. The wait is now over with Aux Prés’ annex, le Bar des Prés, also located on rue du Dragon. At the Bar des Prés, Cyril Lignac develops fusion food, blending his traditional French cuisine with Asian touches.

It’s simple it is unanimous! Everyone, or rather all the worlds, meet at La Laiterie Sainte-Clotilde. Head known or not, it feels at home. The menu is simple, it’s the market, and every dish is delicious. Jean-Baptiste Varenne and his team always welcome you with the same kindness, the conversations are sometimes tied between the tables, in short it is a place that gives fishing and which is quickly a haven.
Kitchen Ter, as the third of the name, after Kitchen Gallery and Kitchen Galerie Bis, but also Kitchen Earth because William Ledeuil admires his admiration, he the great lover of natural ingredients since forever.
In this third restaurant, the star is the dough, obviously exceptional, prepared by Roland Feuillas, peasant baker in Cucugnan, based on exceptional flours, from ancient wheats, and shaped with ancestral processes.
Six kinds of pasta created by both men, accompanied by Asian flavors, unique ingredients such as citrus or forgotten vegetables, and subtle broths. We always recognize the signature of William Ledeuil, unique.

Looks like a chic bistro for a nice bistronomic address. The Chef, Alexandre Navarro has made his classes with big names: Christian Constant, Alain Ducasse, Frédéric Anton or Alain Pégouret with whom he worked for several years at Chez Laurent.
Its cuisine is based on classic dishes, but with, always, a touch of originality that makes them unique: the cake is accompanied by candied citron, asparagus of a thyme and lemon sorbet, mackerel of potato chips. avocados and marinated daikon and light cream rum baba with tonka beans … Original and delicious flavors and textures and of course a seasonally focused cuisine, lighter sauces, less salt, less sugar, less animal protein, less flour …

Under the historic glass roof of the Hotel Lutetia brought to light and in color by Fabrice Hyber or in the Art-Deco patio, the Saint-Germain is both a restaurant and a real place to live throughout the day.
The chef, Benjamin Brial, says of his cooking that it is inspired by all his travels around the world, but it also proposes to a more hurried customers an excellent Carte Bistrot.
For the Tea time, a spirit both Germanopratin and British with a selection of mini sandwiches but also very French pastries !
This is a favourite of the art galleries in the vicinity and artists bring the fun to the place. You will also meet fashionistas and writers. In the spring and summer time, the terrasse is delightful for a drink and a Sunday brunch.
L’Alcazar is having a second rebirth after a first revamp by Sir Terence Conran in 1998 who transitioned the place from a cabaret to a restaurant. This time it was entirely redecorated by Laura Gonzalez. She’s succeeded in making this extremely vast place with its shabby chic signature into a mix of English garden and Brazilian patio, meaning right on trend. The cuisine is also spot on: simple, refined, and fresh, but the cabaret spirit remains with offerings like Russian sturgeon caviar or a poached egg with foie gras. You may want to know what happened to La Mezzanine where people would dance so merrily. Now called Le Balcon, it is still the perfect follow-up for the evening with cocktails to die for.

The address of Cyril Lignac used to be in the 1960s Claude Saint-Louis’s famous restaurant. Regular customers were Serge Gainsbourg, Maurince Ronet, Alain Delon or François Mitterrand.
Cyril Lignac has chosen to keep the flowered wallpaper on the walls, the antique tiled floor or the lights. On the kitchen side, we can find on the menu the great classics, of course reinterpreted by Cyril Lignac.
A true Parisian brasserie created a long time ago by the famous chef Michel Olivier. Today, Eric Corailler concocts a beautiful food full of rural flavors : leeks with French dressing topped with a chive mayonnaise, pig’s trotters coated with bread-crumbs, andouillette “tirée à la ficelle” or farm poultry, served with vintage wines.
There is a private club feel to the decoration by Christian Liaigre which is sober, elegant and as great as everything the designer creates. The menu, the numerous beautiful people and model-looking waiters all conspire to make this place ultrachic !
The most illustrious café in Saint-Germain-des-Prés. It was the favourite spot of the intelligentsia of the 30’s, from Surrealists to editors, artists and filmmakers and it became the meeting point of post-war Existentialists. There gathered Simone de Beauvoir, Jean-Paul Sartre, Boris Vian, writers and artists such as Ernest Hemingway, Juliette Gréco Brigitte Bardot, Roman Polanski, Françoise Sagan, Romain Gary as well as the world of fashion. Nowadays the Café de Flore still caters for a subtle blend or artists, writers, intellectuals, politics and anonymous people.
