Le Grand Véfour

Named after the Duke of Chartres, first son of Louis d’Orléans, this grand Parisian jewel opened in the arcades of the Palais-Royal in 1784. Neoclassical decor abounds here, and each table is named after one of the restaurant’s many famous patrons.

L’Escargot Montorgueil

It’s all about the cuisine of the Burgundy region at this 19th-century eatery, and that means snails. Buttery and garlicky, it’s basically a given that you’ll order some while sitting inside a dining room trimmed with dark wood and a burgundy-red décor. The restaurant, like many on this list, is a historical monument, and the prices reflect a dining experience in a sumptuous Second Empire establishment.

It’s no wonder Coco Chanel and Brigitte Bardot were regulars here.

This brasserie, set opposite Palais Brongniart, is a genuine institution founded in 1876 by a Mr. Gallopin. Parisians and tourists are attracted by its handsome Victorian interior of mahogany, its turn of the 20C conservatory and its bourgeois bistro classics: calf’s head, Noirmoutier turbot, baked Alaska with raspberry liqueur.
