The best of the best, in our opinion. Homemade noodles stretched right before your eyes, a rich and flavorful broth with a generous dose of marinated pork in soy sauce: Mian Guan has something for everyone. It has a canteen vibe and super affordable prices; here you eat quickly, well, and without fuss. As a bonus, their simple fried noodles with vegetables are amazing, and the portions are ultra generous. Perfect for a filling lunch break or a dinner that sends you straight to bed!

At Alex Wenzhou
Alex serves up plates that smell delightful with the street food of Wenzhou. The bao, jiaozi (homemade dumplings), and meat-stuffed eggplants are some of the best in the neighborhood. A little bonus: the portions are generous and the service is always cheerful. You’ll also want to come back for the crispy stir-fried dishes and homemade sauces that elevate every bite. A sure thing!

Le Grand Bol
Here, there’s no question of bland stir-fried noodles that you’ve tried a thousand times in a typical Chinese buffet. They serve up more refined specialties like the "precious pagoda pork" and the "bridge-crossing rice noodles" from Yunnan. It’s a delightful culinary journey at a great price! Their roast duck is also a must-try, with its crispy skin and juicy meat. A special mention goes to their spicy dishes that really warm up the taste buds!

Aux Mandarins de Belleville
A charming old-fashioned restaurant where you come for the lacquered duck worthy of the finest tables in Beijing, Chinese fondues, and to-die-for homemade dim sum. If you're looking to feast with all your friends and sample a variety of delicious Mandarin dishes, this is the place to book. We love: their dried green beans, buttery eggplants, crab fried rice, and also the spicy shrimp.

Lao Lane Xang 2
A grand classic of the 13th arrondissement, Lao Lane Xang 2 is a crowd favorite. Be careful, don’t be fooled by its trendier decor compared to nearby places – the prices stay the same, which certainly explains the long line outside the restaurant every evening. When it comes to food, Lao Lane Xang 2 really raises the bar: you’ll find typical dishes from Laos, Vietnam, and even Thailand. For dessert, we recommend their specialty: sticky rice with fresh mango and coconut milk, a real treat!

Shang Palace
The restaurant at the Shangri-La Hotel, Shang Palace, isn't quite your typical Asian restaurant. And why is that? Its chef, Frank Xu, has earned a Michelin star! So yes, it's true that the budget is a bit higher than what you'd find in the 13th arrondissement, but if you're looking to treat yourself, this is the perfect spot! Traditional herbal soups, stir-fried vegetables, or dim sum—you'll also want to try their fish dishes, like the sautéed turbot fillet. It's a great place for a lovely date night.
Address: 10 Av. d'Iéna, 75116 Paris, France
Tricotin
Another gem in the neighborhood, Tricotin is THE local canteen. And as if one restaurant wasn't enough, there's a second one just across the street, simply named "Tricotin 2". It's a fantastic spot if you're looking for a budget-friendly restaurant to take the whole family, as there are plenty of large tables. On the menu, you'll find the classics like Bo Bun, Phở, and imperial rolls. A wallet-friendly eatery you should definitely try at least once.

On the menu, you’ll find classic dishes like the "crying tiger" (a spicy marinated beef dish). Once again, the prices are very reasonable, with a lunch menu under €15.

Pho Tai
Super good plan alert! This little restaurant hidden in a quiet street of the Chinese district is a gem. If you’re looking for a really great, typical, and affordable Vietnamese restaurant, we highly recommend checking out Pho Tai. Their generous Bo Bun is divine, and the service is impeccable. Try to come early because the space is small and there are lots of customers. And for latecomers, the restaurant "Pho Tai Tai" is right across the street at number 18, run by the owner's sister. You'll find the same menu, but especially the same prices.
Address: 13 Rue Philibert Lucot, 75013 Paris, France
One Day in Hanoi
In just a few years, this restaurant on Rue Daguerre has become the trendy spot in the 14th arrondissement. And for good reason, it's almost impossible to come here to eat without a reservation. This success, One Day in Hanoi, is surely due to its authentic ingredients straight out of our grandmothers' recipe books. We recommend the typical Com Niêu (a sizzling pot where pork in caramel continues to cook mixed with coconut milk and a stewed egg). If you're not convinced yet, know that a complete meal will cost you no more than €15.
Address: 46 Rue Daguerre, 75014 Paris, France
Delight of Condorcet
Here’s one of those secrets we’d love to keep to ourselves, but it’s impossible not to share the incredible experience that is Delight of Condorcet, this little Chinese gem that you just don’t find anymore. They serve us absolutely divine noodles in all the colors of the rainbow, paired with little veggies, and a mountain of pastel-colored rainbow dumplings so cute that you almost hesitate to take a bite. The dumpling dough is fine and delicate, and the fillings (pork, beef, shrimp, or vegetarian) are exquisite. Our taste buds are in disbelief at how delightful the flavors are.

888 NIGHTMARKET | 一村夜话
Located just a stone's throw from Beaubourg, 888 NIGHTMARKET takes you on an immersive experience right in the heart of Chinese night markets. On the menu: a mix of street food and restaurant dishes with an amazing quality-price ratio. We're in love with the tender eggplants, the family-recipe grilled dumplings, and especially the Korean fried chicken with its sweet and spicy sauce, but above all the juicy lamb skewers with secret spices, a true emblem of Chinese night markets. This is an authentic and delicious spot that we adore for an immersion in China that feels just like being there!

Kapunka
If Kapunka means "thank you" in Thai, it's not by chance. It's the first word that comes to mind when you leave these lovely restaurants with a trendy decor. On the menu, there are classics of Thai cuisine that are divinely executed: mikati (a dish made with noodles, peanuts, and coconut), satay skewers, or delicious spring rolls. A sure bet for a quick bite with a Thai beer in hand! Good news: Kapunka now has 4 restaurants in Paris, all gluten-free, with a 100% vegan option in the 2nd arrondissement.
