• Marsan par Hélène Darroze★★ Michelin The elegant interior provides the perfect foil to food embodied by the “special something” that depicts the cooking of Hélène Darroze, descended from a family of cooks. Namely, the ability to scour her homeland of southwest France for ingredients that nurture her culinary inspiration, paired with an unmistakable flair for artistic plating: Landes foie gras, roasted with sesame and buckwheat, blue lobster in tandoori spices (a signature dish), armagnac-drenched baba. Her rigour, insatiable curiosity and mixture of talent and intuition hit the spot every time. A stellar success.364m
• Quinsou★ Michelin Just opposite Ferrandi, the legendary culinary school, Quinsou ("chaffinch" in Occitan) is ideally positioned to influence the great chefs of tomorrow. In a trendy, vintage interior (cement tiles and zinc bar counter), the warm owner-chef, Antonin Bonnet, signs a spot-on, authentic take on artisanal cuisine. The excellent value for pleasure lunchtime formula is a hit every time with a choice of two menus devised around premium market-fresh ingredients. The duck and foie gras pâté en croûte, which keeps pace with the seasons, is a masterpiece of culinary balance from the delectable pastry crust80m
• Nakatani★ Michelin After a decade working with Hélène Darroze, Shinsuke Nakatani is at the helm of this elegant, restful restaurant, decked in soothing colours and natural materials. Thanks to his acute flair for seasoning, cooking and presentation, this ultra-talented Japanese chef concocts a pedigree French score in tune with the seasons, in which the flavours and textures are seamlessly combined to create a consistent whole. Guests can savour a single set menu (4 dishes at lunchtime, 6 in the evening and which changes every two months), served by a crack team that is as low-profile as it is professional. Give481m
• Arpège★★★ MichelinWorld's 50 Best #45 "The best cookbook ever written was by Mother Nature herself," according to Alain Passard. His green philosophy is de rigueur more than ever in his cuisine, which is now entirely free of animal protein. The chef who fetes fruit and flowers never feels more at home than when in one of his three kitchen gardens in the west of France, where his twin vocations of cook and gardener meet. He heads there for inspiration and to explore culinary possibilities, coming back with recipes as accomplished as his "sushi fantaisie" or beechwood-smoked potatoes with wine sauce, for example. Enjoy as you take i1.2km
• Aida★ Michelin The whitewashed facade of this small bolthole tucked away in a lane blends in so perfectly with its surroundings that you may even miss it entirely! Behind its spruce façade lies a jealously kept secret, namely exquisite Japanese cuisine. The pristine white interior is both elegant and minimalist, in line with the visual charter commonly associated with restaurants in Japan. Take a seat at the counter (eight seats only) for a close-up view of the teppanyaki griddles. As you sample a single tasting menu, you will discover subtle, precise cuisine that carefully crafts culinary ties between Japan647m
• Armani Ristorante★ Michelin This restaurant is in an original location on the first floor of the Armani store in St-Germain-des-Prés (not far from the church). The interior is pure and elegant, in the designer's style, of course: a palette of beiges, banquette seating, glossy walls, subdued lighting… Might this be just another shopfront in all but name? On the contrary, this ristorante is one of the best Italian eateries in Paris. Chef Massimo Tringali, former sous-chef at Casadelmar in Porto-Vecchio, works with high-quality ingredients in the spirit of contemporary Italian cuisine. It is fresh, tasty and skilfully done:893m
• Pilgrim★ Michelin After two years at Duende in Nîmes, Masaki Nagao is back on a pilgrimage to the capital as he breathes new life into this establishment. In the wake of Vantre and Le Clarence, the Japanese chef signs a crisp, modern, subtly inventive Gallic repertory guided by the seasons. He avows a weakness for briny shellfish, that he adds raw, cooked and in broth to structure his culinary score. You may sample a veggie composition on a carrot, radish and turnip theme, laced with a shellfish consommé, or sashimi of first-class scallops flanked by pear, smoked ricotta and Castelfranco.

• Guy Savoy★★ MichelinLa Liste 99.5 In the special occasion setting of the Hôtel de la Monnaie, Guy Savoy is continuing the story he began a few decades ago – back when, as a young boy, he would peek into the pans in the kitchen of his family's restaurant, La Buvette de l'Esplanade, in Bourgoin-Jallieu. Here, he has taken things to another level. Imagine six boutique dining rooms, whose windows overlook the Seine and Paris, adorned with contemporary art and sculpture (many loaned by François Pinault). The splendour of this iconic backdrop in no way distracts the chef from his daily mission, which is to pay tribute to French cuis1.4km
• Gaya par Pierre Gagnaire★ MichelinLa Liste 985 toques Gaya par Pierre Gagnaire has all the trappings of a gourmet temple, starting with its eye-catching bright blue façade and pretty awnings. A-listers and connoisseurs come here to wind down in the chic brasserie that is fashionably uncluttered yet eminently comfortable. The focus is unabashedly on good food, courtesy of a delicate, precise score in the zeitgeist with a seafaring slant: carpaccio of seabream and oyster-laced ice cream: shellfish and seafood platter; line-caught turbot with butter made from milk from Froment de Léon dairy cows; Gaya apple pie with poppy-flavoured chantilly cream.1.1km
• Yoshinori★ Michelin Chef Yoshinori Morié (formerly at Le Petit Verdot, Encore, L'Auberge du 15) delights diners with refined, visually pleasing cuisine in the form of single set menus. Think tartare of Corrèze veal, cockles and cauliflower; monkfish, lotus and mushrooms; or ballotine of pigeon, porcini, dates, carrots and combava – so many unabashed odes to elegance and indulgence. In a busy corner of the Latin Quarter, this place is a rare gem among the usual eateries, housed in an intimate setting with exposed stonework, white beams, Japanese-style woodwork, designer lighting, white linen and porcelain.
