  2. Rank 2. Les Parisiens

    Brasserie French

    Les Parisiens is a hotel brasserie in Saint-Germain, all velour banquettes and brass-edged mirrors, serving the sole meuniere and veal tartare you'd expect, at prices that suggest the sole had a good agent. It's a safe bet for parents, dates, or anyone you want to impress without scaring. The address is where James Joyce finished Ulysses, which gives literary types something to mention before the millefeuille arrives.

  3. Rank 3. 114 Faubourg

    Parisian Brasserie

    The awards


  4. Rank 4. Brasserie du Louvre

    Lyonnaise Brasserie

    Floor-to-ceiling windows frame one of the great Paris postcards: the Comédie-Française, the Louvre, and the Conseil d'État all at once. This is a classic brasserie, doing the full canon with snails, sole meunière, and some properly Lyonnaise intrusions, pike quenelle among them. In fine weather the terrace under the Haussmannian arcade fills fast, and you can hardly blame anyone for ordering slowly.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
