The Top 100 Restaurants Near Clover Grill

A Michelin-starred modern restaurant near the Louvre where the chef weaves quiet Japanese references into French fine dining, a scallop over koshihikari rice here, umeboshi alongside Racan pigeon there. The room runs cool and design-forward, the service polished enough to make the whole operation look effortless. A crowd that wears good clothes without trying too hard fills tables that the front-of-house team watches with real attentiveness.

Inside the revamped Samaritaine, tucked into the Cheval Blanc hotel on the Seine, this three-Michelin-star fine dining room is the Paris project of Arnaud Donckele, who also holds three stars at La Vague d'Or in Saint-Tropez. His cooking traces a line from Normandy to the Mediterranean, and his sauces are the thing: built with the obsessive logic of a perfumer, they're worth slowing down for before the rest of the plate arrives.

A chef who grew up watching French cooking documentaries in Japan now holds three Michelin stars in Paris, which is either the most romantic story in food or just evidence that obsession works. Kei is a fine dining restaurant where the French technique is precise and the Japanese eye for plating is unmistakable, the two pulling in the same direction rather than competing for attention.

1. Michelin Guide 3 Stars

A two-Michelin-star Japanese restaurant inside Cheval Blanc where the sushi counter is the main event, each piece assembled in front of you by chef Takuya Watanabe. Arnaud Donckele's sauces and broths weave through the menu in ways you don't expect from a Japanese kitchen, and the pastry chef from Plénitude handles dessert with enough conviction that skipping it would be a mistake. Elegant without being stiff.

1. Michelin Guide 2 Stars

A brasserie on the seventh floor of Cheval Blanc with a terrace that stares straight down the Seine toward the Left Bank, which is the kind of view that makes you order another glass. Peter Marino's colorful room sets the tone, but the kitchen, overseen by Arnaud Donckele, plays it seriously. The cooking respects classic brasserie form while making clear it has a Michelin star to account for. Desserts are Maxime Frédéric's department.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

Six dining rooms inside the Hôtel de la Monnaie, with windows that look straight out over the Seine, hung with contemporary art on loan from François Pinault. This is grand French fine dining with two Michelin stars, the kind where the tablecloths have opinions. Guy Savoy has been at this long enough to have a "legendary" dish on the menu, and the room carries that weight without apology.

A white marble counter runs the length of the open kitchen near Place des Victoires, and the room is spare enough that nothing distracts from what's on the plate. This is a Michelin-starred modern restaurant where Egyptian spicing quietly threads through the menu, turning up in lentils, in the saucing, in the seasoning of roasted meat. The team is young and visibly pleased to be there, which helps.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

A windowed kitchen lets you watch the team work, which sets the tone: this is a Michelin-starred restaurant where the cooking is the show. William Ledeuil built his reputation weaving Southeast Asian roots and spices into classic French technique, and the room around it matches that mix, designer furniture sharing space with colorful paintings. Lunch draws the savvier crowd for the same kitchen at a notably gentler price.

The pale blue façade on rue de Richelieu opens into a room of terracotta red and electric blue Directoire chairs, a nod to Rabelais that earns the reference. This is a Michelin-starred modern French restaurant where the chef's cooking has a playful, precise quality, a lobster toastie sitting comfortably beside a refined Breton bisque. The young front-of-house team keeps the mood from tipping into reverence, which, near the Palais Royal, takes some doing.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

Exposed brick, low beams, and stonework packed so tight that latecomers press against strangers they'll soon be sharing bread with. Grégory Marchand trained at Gramercy Tavern and Jamie Oliver's Fifteen before landing on rue du Nil, and this snug modern bistro in Le Sentier holds a Michelin star for cooking that pulls from serious sourcing without making a sermon of it.

The menu at this Michelin-starred creative restaurant reads like free-verse poetry, with sections titled "White," "Beasts and Abysses," and "Strength" standing in for anything as mundane as starters and mains. Chef Martino Ruggieri sets up in the Palais Royal arcades and cooks with the confidence of someone who stopped asking permission, pairing sea urchin with foie gras and calf's sweetbread with seaweed without blinking.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

A vaulted cellar opposite the Palais Royal, one long communal table, and a Franco-Israeli chef whose résumé spans the George V and private fashion houses. Nhome holds a Michelin star for creative cooking that pulls from Scandinavia, Japan, and the Middle East without obviously belonging to any of them. Fermentation, binchotan charcoal, and brine pickling do a lot of quiet work in dishes that read stranger on paper than they taste.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

Shoes off before you descend to the vaulted cellar dining platform, which sets the tone pretty efficiently. This Michelin-starred fine dining room a block from the Seine runs on Japanese precision meeting French countryside produce, the chef ferrying traditional techniques, soy, sake, and ponzu into territory that feels neither fusion-brochure nor confused. The coffered ceiling and massive old doors remind you you're in Paris; the rest of the meal politely disagrees.

Manon Fleury has written a whole book on grains, and you can taste the obsession at this Michelin-starred fine dining room in the Marais. The cooking is almost entirely plant-based, with animal protein appearing rarely enough to feel like a guest. Vegetables, fruit, grains, and careful sourcing from short local chains do the heavy lifting, and the waxed concrete and velvet banquettes keep things grounded. Book well ahead.

The dining room sits on the cellars of a medieval convent, and the half-timbered walls, stone, and tapestries make the whole room feel like a set that got out of hand in the best possible way. This is a Michelin-starred fine dining room dedicated to French classicism, where the chef trained at Ledoyen, the Crillon, and the Tour d'Argent before deciding to plant a flag here. Regulars fill the room at lunch, when the prices soften considerably.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

Gilded ceilings, crystal chandeliers, and a view across to the Jardin des Tuileries set the register before anyone pours a drop of wine. This is formal fine dining inside Le Meurice, with two Michelin stars and Alain Ducasse's name on the door. Tasting menus move through French classical tradition by way of the kitchen's own creative detours, and pastry chef Cédric Grolet's desserts have their own following online, which tells you something.

1. Michelin Guide 2 Stars

The vegetables come from Asafumi Yamashita's kitchen garden outside Paris, and you can taste the difference. This Michelin-starred modern restaurant in the 2nd arr. lets those ingredients carry the weight rather than burying them in technique. The plating looks casual until you realize it isn't. The wine list punches well above the room's modest size, with some rare bottles for anyone inclined to linger.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

Assaf Granit's Shabour holds a Michelin star and still looks like a construction site, industrial ducts exposed overhead, lighting turned down low enough to make the menu squinting work. The Israeli TV chef runs a dozen restaurants across Jerusalem and London, and this Paris address carries all his signatures: a room that's genuinely loud and alive, and Mediterranean-leaning creative cooking that swings between delicate and exuberant without warning.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

A small Vietnamese restaurant in the Sentier neighbourhood named for the fish-based condiment that anchors Northern Vietnamese cooking. The Hanoi-born team focuses on the food of the north: a pho that runs slightly salty and cleaner than you'd expect, and pork nems with the namesake sauce that regulars plan trips around. Book several days ahead. A Michelin Bib Gourmand.

A one-star fine dining room in the Latin Quarter where the chef plates single set menus that read like quiet arguments between French technique and Japanese precision. Exposed stonework, white beams, and lacquered woodwork set the mood: intimate, unhurried, the kind of place where the lighting was clearly someone's obsession. The lunch menu is an easier entry point if the full tasting feels like a commitment.

The timber façade gives it away before you're through the door, but inside it's old zinc counter, metro tiling, mirrors, and wood panelling, as if a Parisian bistro and a Tokyo grill worked out a custody arrangement. This yakitori restaurant runs mostly on tasting menus of traditional dishes, with poulet de Bresse on the skewer a recurring reason to book ahead. Finish with the seasonal wagashi, the traditional Japanese pastries that tend to stop the table cold.

The name is a philosophy: accents as a record of where you come from. This Michelin-starred fine dining room near the Bourse pairs a Japanese pastry chef with a French chef whose cooking sits somewhere between classical discipline and quiet experimentation, smoky aromatics and fermented notes nudging the familiar off-balance. The Scandinavian interior keeps things clean and unfussy, and the front-of-house team brings enough warmth to stop the precision from feeling cold.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

The dining room sits on the first floor of the Armani store in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, all beige, glossy walls, and banquette seating, which sounds like a setup for a punchline. The Michelin star suggests the kitchen had other ideas. This fine dining Italian holds its own as one of Paris's more serious Italian tables, with the chef bringing a contemporary lightness to high-quality ingredients rather than the heavy formality the address might imply.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

An open fire in the kitchen is the engine of this Tel Aviv-style sharing restaurant in the 2nd, where the chef's team grills and chars vegetables with the kind of focus usually reserved for meat. The menu leans heavily vegetarian, built around Levantine flavors and Middle Eastern spices, and the room leans into the ceremony its name promises. The waitstaff move with choreographed precision, which sounds exhausting but lands as theater.

The cotoletta alla milanese is sized for two, which tells you something about the spirit of the place. This modern Italian bistro on rue du Nil is Greg Marchand's more relaxed second act, where British and American touches slip into the pasta and crudo without much apology.

Black and white floor tiles lead to a stainless steel counter overlooking an open kitchen, which is exactly where you want to sit.

The dining room inside the Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme was designed by a Franco-Mexican firm, which gives it a quietly unusual warmth for a hotel restaurant on the rue de la Paix. Jean-François Rouquette, who came up through Taillevent and Le Crillon, runs a Michelin-starred kitchen here built around obsessive sourcing and restrained technique. The cooking is modern French fine dining, the kind where the produce is the argument and the chef mostly stays out of the way.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

An open kitchen-bar near the Seine where a Tunisian-born chef runs a single surprise tasting menu each evening, French technique threaded through with North African spice, herb, and citrus in quantities calibrated to the millimeter. The room is intimate enough that you can watch every plate being assembled, which means the cooking has nowhere to hide. It holds a Michelin star, and the kitchen earned it the quiet way, by making restraint look like confidence.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

Eight tables in a snug Left Bank room, with quiet nods to Japan tucked into otherwise pared-back walls. Alliance is a two-Michelin-starred creative restaurant run by two partners, one in the kitchen and one running the room with genuine warmth. The chef builds surprise tasting menus around whatever seasonal produce he's excited about that week, tailored so specifically to each table that the menu almost feels personal. Cosy, quiet, and surprisingly human for this level of cooking.

1. Michelin Guide 2 Stars

A crystal ceiling lamp designed as an imaginary herbarium hangs over one of Paris's most storied fine dining rooms, inside the Ritz on Place Vendôme. The chef brings an African childhood and a Mediterranean career to the kitchen, smoking and roasting and adding a tartness that feels genuinely unexpected at this address. The result holds a Michelin star and a certain quiet confidence that the gilded room probably needed.

Tucked inside Lafayette Anticipations, the Rem Koolhaas-designed art foundation in the Marais, this creative share-plates restaurant has the bones to match: exposed concrete, asymmetrical tables, a glass-fronted kitchen. The chef pulls from Turkish, Southeast Asian, and French traditions without making a fuss about it. The crowd skews young and gallery-adjacent, the playlist is deliberate, and lunch here has a way of running longer than planned.

Alain Passard grows vegetables at three kitchen gardens in western France, then brings them back to this fine dining room on Rue de Varenne to see what they become. No meat, no fish, just produce coaxed into something you wouldn't have imagined asking for. The bucolic fresco on the walls keeps the mood gently agrarian, which makes sense once you understand the chef thinks of himself as a gardener first. Three Michelin stars, a spot on the World's 50 Best list.

The name is a contraction of Seoul to Paris, and the kitchen takes that mandate seriously. This refined Korean restaurant near the Odéon brings together a team with serious credentials in Korean gastronomy, turning out food that sits comfortably between tradition and something more considered. The Korean service staff adds a layer of coherence the room earns. A quiet, grown-up room for people who find that chopsticks pair well with a good wine list.

Gilded ceiling, vintage floor tiles, and a copper counter that looks lifted from a prewar film set: this classic bistro in the medieval Marais has been dressed this way forever and shows no interest in changing.

Tucked into the covered passage des Panoramas, this Italian osteria in bistro clothing runs on a carte blanche menu and whatever the chef felt like that morning. The cooking is Sardinian at heart, pulling from Italian produce with the confidence of someone who doesn't need to explain himself. Vitello tonnato, polpette, ricotta ravioli: straightforward dishes that taste like someone actually cared. The wine cellar side of things is not decorative.

Hélène Darroze holds two Michelin stars here, at the fine dining room on rue d'Assas where southwest France arrives on the plate with the conviction of someone whose family has cooked for generations. The chef raids her home region for ingredients, then applies a plating sensibility that makes everything look slightly too beautiful to eat. Blue lobster in tandoori spices has become a calling card, and the armagnac baba is the kind of thing people bring up unprompted weeks later.

The name means "kiss" in the Niçois dialect, which tells you something about how Julia Sedefdjian runs this one-Michelin-star restaurant on the Left Bank. The cooking is deeply Mediterranean, rooted in her Nice upbringing, so bouillabaisse and pissaladière share a menu with charcoal-fired socca. A surprise tasting menu is the move if you want the full picture, and the bouillabaisse riff is the dish people come back for.

The view of Notre-Dame from the dining room is so absurdly perfect it almost feels staged. This is grand Parisian fine dining, been around forever, with a Michelin star and a wine cellar running to more than 300,000 bottles.

Pasta made from heritage grains ground by an artisan miller anchors this modern restaurant on the boulevard Saint-Germain, the third in William Ledeuil's small empire.
