Mamine

In this cozy little spot from the 17th century, the retro decor sets the mood: everything here smells deliciously like home-cooked meals. Veal stew, dauphinoise gratin, or even a mouth-watering tarte Tatin: Mamine is a hug on a plate. We love the warm atmosphere and the generous portions that remind us of those endless Sunday meals. Perfect for a timeless moment.

At Mamy's

The heaven of slow-cooked dishes, served with a smile that reminds you of a loving grandmother. Their beef bourguignon and potato gratin are classics that will almost make you forget the rest of the menu. The cozy decor, with its old photos and floral tablecloths, will take you straight back to your childhood kitchen.

The Little Rose of the Sands

A hidden gem run by Zouzou and Christian, a couple as charming as their food is generous. Belgian croquettes, duck confit, homemade chocolate mousse, and gifts in the colors of Paris: you leave here with your heart (and stomach) full! But be warned, no reservations here: to enjoy this treasure, you have to arrive early and cross your fingers to snag one of the seven tables in this mini restaurant.

Grandma Colette Montmartre

Come to my place, I'm having lunch at my grandma's. In one of the liveliest streets of Montmartre, we stop for lunch, dinner, or both at Grandma Colette’s. The motto of this cozy spot: a beef bourguignon simmered for 6 hours in its bath of vegetables, red wine, and loooove, served with an aligot that’s as melt-in-your-mouth as it is cheesy. For those who prefer a little less adventure but still want something delicious, the cheese burgers with your choice of (cantal/cheddar/blue), fries or aligot (always) warm up hearts and bodies in these tricky times. Whether you go for one or the other, “it’s not the end of the world,” as my grandma used to say, because the recipes come straight from the heart of this Auvergne grandma. And you never leave a grandma’s house disappointed. Right?

Biche

Biche is a friendly, old-school restaurant that brings classic French cuisine back to life. Eggs mayonnaise, vol-au-vent, and beef bourguignon are served in a super cozy setting, surrounded by a retro playlist and attentive service. A special shout-out for their flambéed Châteaubriand with pepper, a dish that’s as delicious as it is spectacular. And for the terrine lovers, a delicious selection awaits you too!
