A pleasant arrondissement with a thousand faces, the 11th is brimming with great places to eat! Home to the Atelier des Lumières, the Arts et Métiers museum and station, and the Cité du Figuier, there’s nothing better for a stroll or a cultural outing than a trip to the 11th… But gourmets will find just as much to enjoy in this corner of the heart of Paris, and here are the best restaurants.
La Brasserie Martin – One of the best brasserie restaurants in the 11thᵉ
After having thrilled the taste buds of Paris with the Bellanger and Dubillot brasseries, La Nouvelle Garde tripled the stakes with the opening of Brasserie Martin last July. With its leafy terrace, straightforward recipes and extensive wine cellar, it has all the features that have made the group such a success.
📍Brasserie Martin – 24 rue Saint-Ambroise, 75011
Le Biscuit by Alain Ducasse – For gourmands
Alain Ducasse has certainly not finished delighting us in Paris. The three-starred chef, a world monument to gastronomy, opened a new address in the capital on September 1ᵉʳ: Le Biscuit. Here, as you’ll have guessed, the cookie is in the spotlight, with the promise of some thirty exceptional recipes, made with the concern for quality and authentic taste that characterize the cuisine of this man who has left his mark on the menus of the greatest palaces.
📍Le Biscuit by Alain Ducasse – 42 avenue de la Roquette, 75011
Gourou, regional Indian cuisine reinvented
Gourou opened in autumn 2025 on rue Léon-Frot in the 11th arrondissement. Its decor is inspired by Bombay’s bazaars and Irani cafés, with a warm, antique and immersive interior that transports you as soon as you cross the threshold. In the kitchen, chef Adrien Bouchaud revisits Indian gastronomy, focusing on regional specialties and vegetarian or vegan dishes, from palak paneer to fragrant dahls, as well as snacks inspired by Mumbai’s street-food scene.
Bidoche – One of the best meat restaurants in 11ᵉ
In its back store, Bidoche butchery hides a restaurant. In the heart of a confidential dining room with stone walls, a few meat enthusiasts are seated. The à la carte menu kicks off with a hearty platter of charcuterie to share with your fellow diners over a bottle of fine red wine. Then it’s back to the butcher’s to choose THE piece that will end up in our bellies.
📍Bidoche – 7 Rue Jean-Pierre Timbaud, 75011 Paris
La Drogheria Italiana – Good artisan pizzas
In principle, successful restaurants sometimes open adjoining delicatessens. But in the case of La Drogheria, the reverse is true. So, as an extension to the drugstore, you’ll find six small tables in front of an open kitchen. If you’re lucky enough to get in, you’ll be able to enjoy pizzas that are as good as they are original!
📍La Drogheria Italiana – 35, rue Léon Frot, 75011
Orgueil – One of the best speakeasies in 11ᵉ
Part gourmet bistro, part gourmet speakeasy, Orgueil has thought out its concept down to the last detail. In its mysterious, whimsical ambience, order with the help of Tarot divinatory-like cards 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 variation on the meat sandwich has all the capital’s gourmands in a frenzy. And while more and more gourmets are getting in on the act, few establishments can offer a Berliner like Impact!
📍Impact Berliner Kebap – 119, rue du Chemin-Vert, 75011
Krügen – One of the best crêperies in Paris for friends and family
crêperie Paris
This pretty address resists the crêpe genre at aperitif time, offering buckwheat Breton makis to share. But if you prefer more classic crepes, you’ll find what you’re looking for! In fish, ham or veggie versions, there’s bound to be a crêpe for you. We like the truffled one, with truffle-flavored sheep’s tomme, shallots confit with IPA, grilled pancetta, runny egg and mesclun.
📍 Krügen – 4 rue du Général Renault 75011
Unico – For meat fans
Emblematic 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, this meat-lovers’ paradise is located on rue Paul Bert. In a 70s decor, you can sample the very best of Argentine meat. Ribs, tenderloin, entrecôte or flank steak: the tastiest cuts of beef have been selected and put on the menu!
📍Unico – 15, rue Paul Bert, 75011
Los Güeros, a must for burrito fans
@losgueros
Do you love Mexican cuisine? Then go for Los Güeros burritos. We loved the Burrito de Camarones, featuring a wheat tortilla, shrimp, chipotle cream and black bean purée. Delicious!
📍Los Güeros – 28 Rue Saint-Ambroise, 75011 Paris
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 to please everyone.
📍East Side Burger, 60 Boulevard Voltaire, 75011
