Home of theAtelier des Lumières museum and arts et Métiers station or the Cité du Figuier for a stroll or a cultural outing, there’s nothing like a trip to the 11th arrondissement… But gourmets will find just as much to enjoy in this area in the heart of Paris, and here are some of the best restaurants.
La Brasserie Martin – One of the best brasserie restaurants in 11ᵉ

Bidoche – One of the best meat restaurants in 11ᵉ
In its back room, the Bidoche butcher’s shop hides a restaurant. In the heart of a confidential dining room with stone walls, a few meat enthusiasts are seated. On the à la carte menu, we start the hostilities with hearty charcuterie boards to share with our companions, over a good bottle of red wine. Then it’s back to the butchery area to choose THE piece that will end up in our bellies.
📍Bidoche – 7 Rue Jean-Pierre Timbaud, 75011 Paris
Orgueil – One of the best speakeasies in 11ᵉ
Halfway between gourmet bistro and speakeasy restaurant Orgueil has thought out its concept down to the last detail. In its mysterious, whimsical ambience, you can order using cards that resemble a Tarot divinatory, and indulge in the daring cuisine of chef Eloy Spinnler!
📍Orgueil, 6 Rue Popincourt, 75011 Paris
Impact Berliner – Kebabs made in Berlin
If you’re a kebab fan, you’ll be aware that the doner has been on a roll in recent months. Served in a large crusty bun, Berlin’s version of the meat sandwich is a favorite with gourmets all over the capital. And while more and more of them are getting in on the act, few establishments are able to offer a Berliner as Impact !

Unico – For meat fans
Emblem of the quasi-religious culture of the asado, Unico shines on both sides of the Seine thanks to two Parisian addresses acclaimed by local residents. On the right bank, the meat-eaters’ paradise is rue Paul Bert. In a 70’s decor, you can enjoy the best of Argentine meat. Ribs, tenderloin, entrecôte or flank steak: the tastiest cuts of beef have been selected and put on the restaurant’s menu!

East Side Burger – One of the best burger restaurants in 11ᵉ
Cheap, delicious and vegetarian (so a little healthier to keep our summer bodies). What more could you ask for? Even the name comes straight out of the US of A. As well as burgers, you’ll find other classics from our American friends: hot dogs, nuggets, coleslaw, cheesecakes… Something for everyone.
