Paris restaurants located within a 5 minute walk of Odéon Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

Loved our stay here! Our room (Superior room) had plenty of space, especially by Paris standards - bathroom was also very large. The service was excellent (I'm not sure why people are bothered by leaving the room key at the front desk - it actually was kind of nice knowing I didn't have to dig through my purse looking for it, or worry about losing it while out in the city). But the best thing about it was the location! Walking distance to so many Paris attractions, and a great neighborhood with bars, restaurants, and shopping right outside our door. We were in Paris with several couples, all staying in different neighborhoods, and we always ended up by our hotel each night due to all the amazing choices! Will definitely stay here again if I return to Paris!

Rooms face a very busy road and many restaurants that have outdoor eating and drinking. Noise levels increase later in the evening, despite having good windows, yelling and laughing late into the evening. Occurs every night of the week. Breakfast is meager and very little variety. Front desk staff not extremely welcoming or friendly. The hotel is clean. Bathroom has no place to put your toiletries. Would not recommend this hotel and will not stay there again.

Overall a pleasant experience. The rooms are clean, and smell good. Air condition works well. The bed and pillows are very comfortable. The shower might be a bit uncomfortable for tall individuals and for those where accessibility might be an issue. One minor inconvenience for us was having to drop off and pickup the room key at the front desk every time you left and came back to the hotel. The elevator is extremely small with capacity for barely two people. A big plus was the location, and Nila, at the front desk, who was very pleasant, accommodating and very attentive to our needs. Overall, I recommend this hotel and would stay again.

Title: Wonderful Stay in an Amazing Location We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, and the staff was exceptionally polite and accommodating—they even gave us a free upgrade, which was a lovely surprise. I don’t agree with some reviews about the lobby being too small—it was a good size with a comfortable waiting area, and the staff was courteous enough to send our luggage up so we didn’t have to carry it ourselves. Yes, the elevator is small (about the size of a cupboard), but it’s functional, and given that it’s a heritage building, this is expected. If you’re claustrophobic, taking the stairs is a good option. The staff truly made our stay memorable, and the neighborhood was simply amazing. I would love to stay here again on my next visit. Thank you to the hotel team for a wonderful experience!

Staying at this hotel for one night was an interesting experience. While the room was spacious by Parisian standards, the tiny toilet, uncomfortable shower, and very narrow corridors made our stay less comfortable. Additionally, the breakfast area was quite small, and the staff did not seem particularly welcoming. The decoration was distinctly Parisian, which added a charming touch, but the busyness of the room’s design might feel overwhelming for those seeking to relax after a hectic day. However, the best aspects were the excellent location, which was convenient and easily accessible, and the comfortable bed, which ensured a good night’s sleep.

We celebrated our wedding anniversary at Le Procope, and as two history lovers, this place felt almost unreal. Dining in the same space once frequented by Napoleon, Marat, Chopin, and Voltaire ( and visited by Benjamin Franklin!) is an experience in itself, equal parts dinner and time travel. Walking around the restaurant, admiring the historical artifacts, was genuinely thrilling. We leaned into the spirit of the place and ordered what’s advertised as the revolutionaries’ favorite champagne: the 2016 Champagne Jacquart Blanc de Blancs - absolutely delicious and perfectly celebratory. For starters, we had the classic onion soup and a soft-boiled egg with mushrooms, both light, comforting, and beautifully done. For mains, I chose the Revolutionaries’ Beef Tenderloin, while my husband went with the Angus Beef Steak. Both were flavorful and satisfying, served with excellent sides-au gratin potatoes for me and French fries for him. Dessert sealed the deal: artisan ice cream and pavlova, light and indulgent in the best way. The service truly elevated the evening. A special shout-out to Schuman and Arnold, who made our anniversary feel genuinely special. From the warm welcome at the door (including coat service and a wonderful table by the window) to the friendly goodbye as we left, every staff member was gracious and attentive. History, great food, wonderful service- Le Procope isn’t just a meal, it’s an experience. An unforgettable way to celebrate a milestone.

Le Procope is a true Parisian gem. As the oldest café in Paris, it’s full of history, charm, and a beautiful atmosphere that makes the whole experience feel special. The food was absolutely amazing—every dish was flavorful and perfectly crafted. But what really made the night unforgettable was the exceptional service. The staff were warm, attentive, and incredibly informative. A special shout-out to Guido Maggiolo, Deputy Director, who went above and beyond to make our visit perfect. His kindness and professionalism truly elevated the experience. I can’t recommend Le Procope enough. A must-visit in Paris!

It was surreal, yet awesome, to eat in the same place, and eat possibly the same things, Benjamin Franklin did while he drafted the Treaty of Paris, or Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Paine did while discussing political theory with French locals. It's a living museum in which you can eat. The staff were very kind, professional, and welcoming. The food was as phenomenal as the atmosphere. The French Onion Soup, Filet de Bœuf des Révolutionnaires, and Tiramisu were all excellent. They were all cooked, prepared, and presented in utmost care and craftsmanship. I will definitely be coming back the next time I'm in Paris and strongly recommend it to anybody who enjoys history, great food, a calm ambience, or a combination.

A Timeless Parisian Gem – Café Procope Dining at Le Procope, the oldest café in Paris, is like stepping into history — and what a delicious history it is! The atmosphere is full of charm, with elegant decor that feels straight out of the 18th century. You can almost imagine the philosophers and writers who once sat here debating over coffee. The food was simply amazing. I had the beef liver with parsley, and it was out of this world — perfectly cooked, rich in flavor, and beautifully balanced. Every dish my friends ordered was just as impressive: full of taste, depth, and that unmistakable French flair. The service was warm and attentive without being intrusive, and the whole experience felt both refined and relaxed. If you’re in Paris and want a true taste of French culinary tradition in a place steeped in culture and history, Le Procope is an absolute must.

One of the oldest restaurants in the world, serving traditional French cuisine. The ambiance is beautiful and the atmosphere very pleasant. The food is good, as is the wine. The service is friendly, always attentive, and courteous. We spent a very nice afternoon at Procope.

We attended a business dinner with a valued customer. The restaurant boasts exquisite decor and exudes an inviting and lively atmosphere. The service was exceptionally professional and amiable. Regrettably, the food did not meet my expectations. While it was presented professionally and had an appealing appearance, the taste was lacking. The onion soup was bland and lacked the rich, caramelised flavour that is essential for this dish. The “French Duck Confit Parmentier, Full-bodied Jus, Small Fresh Herb Salad” was overcooked and somewhat dry, as if it had been reheated multiple times. On the positive side, my dessert, a “Fig Shortbread, Mascarpone Cream,” was excellent and met the standards I expect from a French restaurant.

A friend we hadn't seen for many years booked a table for us for dinner. It was wonderful in every way. Great food, excellent red wine, wonderful surroundings and a chance to catch up after so long. I would recommend Les Editeurs without hesitation.

Super top notch service, welcoming, helpful & friendly not just from your own waiter, but also from any staff member you encounter. Classic bistro fare from a Paris institution. Worth stopping in. Cheers!
CurdyGirl Irl - in the last week

The whole experience from reception, service and good was more than simply satifiyng. The lunch we had over there was absolutely wonderful and I would advise everyone to go there. Finally, the price ofcourse depends also on the number of bottles of wine you may order, so that is up to yourselves. Just go and enjoy!!!
Stephan Le Roy - 4 months ago

Visited here twice for dinner and on the first occasion had the beef tartare which was excellent. On the second occasion I had the entrecôte which was awful. Of the 350g, half was fat and gristle. My waiter was excellent and the vibe there is cool with more locals than tourists in attendance. Worthy of another try. Just don’t get the steak.

The Alain Ducasse owned Allard, is one of those timeless Left Bank institutions that seem to have captured the essence of old Paris without trying. I started with escargots, rich with garlicky parsley butter, followed by ris de veau, tender and golden. Each bite was deep and comforting, the flavours familiar yet indulgent. The wine, le Merle Blanc de Château Clarke 2023 was bright and elegant, a beautiful pairing that carried the meal effortlessly. I finished with a plate of cheese: a blue, a goat, and a washed rind, each with its own quiet personality. It’s the quality of service that makes the difference between a good and great restaurant and the service at Allard was brilliant. Well done to the team at Allard for making my last Parisian dinner of this trip so memorable.
CJ - 3 weeks ago

An unforgettable dining experience at Allard a truly classic and historic Parisian restaurant. We loved the Homard bleu rafraîchi, the Escargots en coquilles, the Filet de bœuf doré, sauce aux poivres, and the Turbot façon Dugléré. Every dish was full of distinctive flavors, and the service was simply excellent. A timeless Parisian gem that I highly recommend

A classic French restaurant in the heart of Paris, with a very interesting space that has maintained its authenticity over time. Nice food — simple and unpretentious — good service, and great wine. A pleasant experience; I recommend it.
Παναγιωτης Τατσης - a month ago

A cult place for 100%. Why 4 stars when everything is 5? A place for people on a budget. Because honestly, this place is only for those who can afford it, and I don't mean that they appreciate it. Service outstanding and advanced. The food is simply amazing, I didn't even take a single photo, in my opinion, it would just be disrespectful to those who prepared these incredible dishes. Do I recommend, yes, for pleasure and enjoyment (and be ready to pay for it) Reservation, recommended.
Iryna Ecker-Tafintseva - a month ago

On our various trips to Paris we’ve made it a point to come to Allard almost every single trip. On each visit we leave satisfied and happy with the experience. We feel that the food here is some of the most authentic and classic bistro food that you can find, plus it is cooked almost perfectly. However, our only gripe/complaint is that every time we come the prices seem to be getting more expensive. Hence the 4 star rating. All in all, if you’re looking for some classic authentic bistro food with classic dishes that seem to be disappearing like frog legs and pan seared foie gras, Allard is definitely the place to visit. The funny thing is, while I complain about the price, I have a feeling I’ll still be coming back for another classic French bistro meal the next time I find myself in Paris!

A multi screen cinema showing the latest movies in French. Different sizes, some rooms are nice enough but some are rather small and uncomfortable. One would expect better but cinemas in Paris are rarely much better!
A.G. M. - 2 years ago

Average cinema experience with room for improvement UGC Danton in Paris offers a standard cinema experience. The cinema is clean and comfortable, but there is nothing particularly special about it. The staff are friendly but could be more attentive. Visitors are more likely to experience a decent movie-watching experience with nothing particularly memorable about it. What makes UGC Danton special is its location. It's conveniently located in the heart of the city, making it easily accessible to locals and tourists alike. However, for each star lacking, there are areas where UGC Danton can improve. One star is deducted for the lack of unique features and amenities that would make the cinema stand out from its competitors. Another star is deducted for the quality of the snacks and drinks, which could be improved. Lastly, another star is deducted for the lack of innovation in the overall cinema experience. To improve the cinema experience, UGC Danton could consider offering more premium amenities like reclining seats, a better selection of snacks, and more engaging pre-show entertainment. Additionally, they could consider offering special discounts or promotions to attract more customers. Overall, while UGC Danton is an average cinema, there is certainly room for improvement. If you're looking for a simple cinema experience without any frills, UGC Danton is a good choice. However, for those seeking a more elevated cinema experience, there are better options available.

Very well run establishment, very kind helpful team running the place . We witnessed the support and assistance offered to a handicapped person in need of help; very immediate response to needs, going as far as to help them into the theatre, find the right seat comfortably , unrushed, and without pressure… Venue was well kept, the temperatures as one would hope, the bathrooms clean (paper towel would be a plus), and the clientele matched : they found a wallet and left it at the box office to be recuperated by us about an hour later much to our surprise and delight.. thank you for restoring our faith in the kindness of strangers…. We were there to see screening of Yesterday - how fitting! Thank You, look forward to visiting you again soon

A great experience. Bored at night in Paris? No way! Go visit the cinema, have a drink. Take some chips or popcorn. Clean seats, cosy seats. Great sound and screen. Don't pass the opportunity to see that movie you needed to see!

I visited Vagenende with my family for an early dinner while on vacation and had a lovely meal. The restaurant staff offered a warm welcome and the atmosphere was very comfortable. Marco was our host and he was absolutely wonderful! He was kind, friendly, and offered great insights and suggestions - we could not have been better attend to. The food was delicious; it was prepared extremely well and the portion size was very filling. We were very glad to have stopped by and hope to return in the future!

There are so many Parisian cafes- it’s difficult to know what’s legit and what’s tourist crap. Vagenende is the real deal. The interior is stunning with its flourishing Mucha/ art nouveau decor. The food is French traditional and solid quality. Service was attentive and hospitable. Check it out!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this restaurant! It was recommended by someone at our hotel, and I'm so glad we followed their advice. First of all, the space is beautifully decorated: lavish yet warm and welcoming. The staff is friendly and attentive (bounjour, Bogdan!). And the food... WOW! As soon as we sat, we were offered to start our evening with champagne or kir royales (yes, please!) along with simple but delicious black olive spread and fresh bread to start. We ordered the lamb with ratatouille (Sunday's dish of the day) and the cod fillet. Both were incredibly flavorful -- the lamb was so tender and rich, and the team at Vagenende recommended the perfect wine pairing to go with it. We ended the meal with a crème brûlée that was perfect -- not too sweet, with the perfectly caramelized crust. Please go, you won't regret it.

Probably my favorite brasserie in Paris. I don't eat here nearly often enough. Food and service is superb, even when you are a tourist, and it's hard to beat the classic Art Nouveau atmosphere. Prices have gone up a bit since I started going here, but can still be reasonable, depending on what you order. The cuisine is classic French dishes, well executed.

This review is a year too late lol but we loved it here so much, so we wanted to add a review nonetheless. My boyfriend & I visited last year in March, as his basketball team was playing & we found good reviews on the diversity of options this bar had. When we arrived, we asked about it, but because there were people there who booked to watch a specific event they unfortunately couldn't switch any of the screens. They were extremely apologetic and helpful, because when we mentioned it was totally fine and we would watch it on our phone, they immediately offered a spot where we could charge our phone and mentioned they would try to switch one screen for us as soon as they were able to. After a while two other people joined close to us asking for a specific March Madness game, since it was the guys college he attended. The staff kindly told them we had priority, but we mentioned we were fine watching on our phone, so as soon as the other game was done, their college game got turned on. We got to talking to them about it, and whenever they had time, the staff joined as well. The food was great! We had some typical 'sporting event' snacks, and got recommended some nice beer! If we're ever in Paris again, we will for sure come back!

Very nice atmosphere...felt like I was back home. Poutine was loaded with cheese curds. THE Spicy Margherita was the spiciest one I ever had in my life and it was great. Met a nice couple at the next table from the states (wife originally from Montreal) and she recognized the sens logo on my t shirt.
Adrian Fontaine - 6 months ago

I loved this place! I was able to get seated at the bar right away. The staff were friendly and I got to practice a little French when I ordered. The Bacon Poutine and their cider on tap were both great experiences. They had some music in English playing in the background which reminded me of what I listen to back at home. They also had some American football on one of their tvs. It was a good vibe.

Big shout out to Clement and the young servers from Canda and South Shore, Chicago for a very enjoyable evening last night! We came to watch the Bears game. The Staff is super-efficient with tablet guided table reservations, the beer selection is excellent, as is the food, but it is the attitude of the Staff that sets this place apart. They make this place such a welcoming environment for Americans in Paris. Merci a vous!!!! We're coming back!!!

My daughter and I visited here during our recent trip to Paris, we were given a very warm welcome, quick service and delicious food. We were given a basket of complimentary bread with our meal, which was replenished when we had eaten it all. We shared fried frogs legs and escargot for starter, then the frog burger with fries and sausage & mashed potatoes for the main. If we had been staying longer, we would definitely have gone back for another meal.
Dawn Wiltshire - 2 months ago

Absolutely delightful experience, again! The duck confit was rich and tender, the frogs legs were perfectly seasoned, and the pâté was smooth and flavorful. The wine selection paired beautifully with the meal. Service was attentive and excellent. — Truly a wonderful experience. Highly recommended.

A historic restaurant that offers an exquisite experience. From perfectly curated products to its peculiar decor, we traveled back to the 1950s from the second we stepped foot through the door. Every dish was a perfectly balanced, a unique blend of flavors that brings out traditional french gastronomy.
Amira El Helaly - a month ago

Authentic French Classics with a Great Vibe! Stumbled upon this place without a reservation and was pleasantly surprised to be seated right away, even during a busy hour. The staff was friendly, and they provided an English menu which made ordering easy. I tried the fried frog legs and the beef tartare—both were absolutely excellent. The atmosphere was lively, with a fun pop-rock soundtrack from the 70s and 80s playing in the background, which added to the charm. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy traditional French cuisine in a welcoming setting !

I’ve known Azabu since 2012, and this is my first time writing a review of the place. Azabu offers traditional Teppanyaki from Kyoto, and the moment you walk in, you feel transported. The staff is incredibly welcoming, and I always choose to sit at the chef’s table — watching the chef meticulously prepare each dish is a performance in itself. The quality of the ingredients is outstanding. Every recipe is crafted with top-tier produce, and the presentation is always elegant. Their sake selection is excellent — they’re constantly sourcing new labels to introduce. The wine and beer list is equally well-curated. And the desserts? Simply out of this world. I’ve always loved the experience and the way we’re treated here. You feel at home. You feel cared for. Thank you, Azabu, once again!
Andres Aedo - 4 months ago

This is another difficult review to write. Azabu has a lot of things going for it, staff are wonderful, the venue is great and the ambiance is perfect, especially when you're dining outside on a nice night. However....Azabu puts themselves on the upper end of the scale with their pricing. An average "menu" will cost you 45€ without refreshments. With just two glasses, you are likely walking out of dinner paying north of 60 euros. Having said that, the expectations is the food will be like everything else, wonderful. Unfortunately we didn't find the food to be anything beyond mediocre. The starters while being presented perfectly, were lacking any real character. The "amuse bouche" was also just flat. Two of us had the Wagyu beef and honestly, it was either overcooked and too chewy. Finally the dessert which was a green tea cake was dry. I am not going to advise others to avoid the place, it seems there are a lot of positive reviews and we could have been there when the chef wasn't having his best day. For me though I won't return as the pricing was far too high for food of this quality.

Appetiser, starter, and dessert are good, sashimi is fresh and tasty. The main course - that’s the star of the show. Had white fish and baby duck for plat, both are cooked to perfect tenderness with a lightly charred flavours, coupled with unique sauce and side dishes. Do book in advance.

In a city full of some of the best restaurants and bakeries in the world, this was among one of my best culinary experiences in Paris to date. Their bread is delicious and their selection of salads was covetable - I wish there was some more places like this in London. A simple concept but so, so well executed.

Perfect healthy lunch stop for delicious, fresh food and beautiful music. Big fan of this concept and sure to come back. My “everything but” salad with roasted vegetables hit the spot perfectly and tuned me up for my afternoon - all for €12, couldn’t ask for more. Bravo
Alexander Rabu - 2 months ago

Delicious hot fresh foccacia sandwiches. I love all the options they have; so this will suit anyone. You can see the bread being baked fresh. And then again after they put in the toppings. I went with the Stonker; which is fresh mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, arugula and olive oil. I made them add balsamic as well which made it even better. €9 is a steal for such a big sandwich. Order first and then lots of place to sit and eat upstairs. Must visit in Paris.
Samad Kadri - 5 months ago

Great place to have a budget friendly meal. I had the sandwich+drink+dessert combo. It was delicious, fresh, and at a very reasonable price. The only thing I would improve is the choice of drinks, as only a few sodas or water are available. A simple lemonade would have made my meal perfect.
Aleksandra Lemajic - 7 months ago

After indulging in the delicious richness of french cooking for the past week both of us were craving something light and healthy. We ordered the "everything but" salad and the "flipper" sandwich and they were exactly what we were looking. Ingredients were fresh and delicious. Cost 20 Euros for the two dishes. Staff was friendly, service was quick. 5/5
