Best Parisian Bistros And Restaurants In The 7th.

When visiting Paris,it is hard to find a better district to eat in than the 7th.The

7th district is prosperous,gentrified and beautiful.It is home to the Eiffel Tower and runs along the left bank to Blvd. St. Germaine where the 6th begins.

The 7th is also home to 1,000's of restaurants; it would take months just to eat your way through this district (and what glorious months those would be).

Many new restaurants have opened in districts like the 7th, home to many of our Eve Villas Paris short term vacation rental where you eat well and reasonably.Many are still quite traditional in their approach but present quality and value.That being said, here are the results of my efforts eating in the 7th,listed alphabetically.

Au Bon Accueil 14 Rue Monttessuy.01 47 05 46 11.

Thinking about a romantic meal near the Eiffel Tower with that someone?Maybe an anniversary dinner? Well,this is one place to consider. Very elegant and cool,muted tones hushed atmosphere refined chef and a great deal with a prix fixe at 35 Euro.The meal feels like it should cost a lot more.But it can be daunting.Do not be shy and ask for an English version of the menu if they have not given it to you already.Reservations mandatory,if it is nice out get a sidewalk table with a direct view of the Eiffel Tower.

Au Petit Sud Ouest.46 Ave.De La Bourdonnais.01 45 55 59 59. www.au-petit-sud-ouest.fr

This charming almost raucous but always inviting homage to duck and all things Sud Ouest.It is Magret and Foie Gras heaven,take your statins and red rice yeast pills beforehand.Again,reservations are mandatory in advance.

Lami Jean. 27 Rue Malar.01 47 05 86 89.

Bring the appetite and hold on to your forks.Large portions of true to their heritage Basque food from the south of France.Very loud room and lots of fun but be forewarned, a French speaker will likely be needed to talk full advantage this evening as the menu is quite complex.Dont be afraid, order things you have never eaten before.

La Billebaude.29 rue LExposition.1 45 55 20 96.

Our meal at La Billebaude this summer was sweet and wonderful.This bistro gourmand has a diverse and creative menu, often emphasizing wild game owing to the Chefs homage to the hunt (just look around at the art) although our meals were primarily fish. Heading into August,the restaurant, almost empty put on a solid meal.We ate well,a large plate of smoked salmon and foie gras for appetizers.Mains, were strong and dessert, some of the best profiteroles ever.2 glasses of white wine,a bottle of a superb Sancerre Rouge Pinot),coffees all for 160 dollars for 3 of us.Great value.

The Bistro de Breteuil.3 Place Breteuil.1 45 66 98 88

This once beautiful room has probably,well definitely, passed its prime and just is not a gourmet food destination.It is a throwback,a place to relax and enjoy classic French dishes prepared in a fairly competent way and not to push the envelope.So why go? To have fun! The atmosphere is classic,crushed red velvet and oversized paintings abound.The prices are more than reasonable and when you let go of any gourmet snobbism you can have a great time.You are well advised to follow their formula approach, the key to this establishment.For 36 euro you get the appetizer, main, dessert and a bottle of wine for every two people.Dont come looking for gourmet,just roll with old school menu and relax.All in all go to have a good time if you are in the neighborhood but dont expect a refined approach.Not sure I would seek it out as a destination though.

Chez Les Anges.54 Blvd. La Tour Maubourg.1 47 05 89 86.www.chezlesange.com. We have enjoyed eating at Au Bon Acqueil and were pleased that the same couple renewed a brasserie near Les Invalides on Blvd.Tour Marbourg and breathed life into this institution.The room is decorated impeccably in modern cool and somewhat Zen tones and for once you can hear the people at your table easily even with a crowd.As with most of the meals reviewed, the prix fixe menu of 36 euro allows you to afford an elegant meal at reasonable prices.Be forewarned, you can spend here if you go off into the carte.
