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

The Café de la Paix is a Parisian classic. While it is certainly not the cheapest spot in the city, the experience justifies the price. The staff is warm and welcoming, the setting is absolutely stunning, and the dishes are both refined and delicious. A place where history, elegance, and hospitality meet perfectly.

Probably the most luxurious breakfast I have had. Everything in the set is delicious. The hot chocolate is as rich as eating melted chocolate bar. The French toast is fluffy inside and crispy outside with amazing cream. I chose croissant which is buttery but not too buttery I like it. Overall a remarkable breakfast date in Paris.

We had the pleasure of enjoying lunch at Café de la Paix and were truly impressed—not only by the elegant atmosphere and delicious food, but also by the outstanding service provided by Linda. She was personable, gracious, and incredibly professional. Her warm and polite manner made us feel genuinely welcome and added a special touch to our experience. The meal was absolutely delightful, and the restaurant itself is stunning. A heartfelt thank you to Linda for making our lunch so memorable!

Amazing decoration!! Feels like a museum. I have been here few times. Always good food and quick friendly service . Had a cold tomato soup, and tomato filled with rice and meat oven baked and milefueille for dessert. All excellent. Beautiful ambiance to spend time in appreciating all the decorations.

We were seated after waiting about 5-10 minutes which was to be expected. Beautifully decorated inside. Loved the decor. We decided to sit inside due to the lack of tables available outside. We waited a long time for the waiter to take drink orders. By the time he arrived at our table we were ready to order food and drinks. When food arrived, it was delicious and plated beautifully. Drinks were good. We waited again for a while for the ticket. Prices were high but to be expected for the location of the restaurant. Washrooms were quite nice but could be labelled better. Some other guests seem to struggled with going into the correct washroom. We were greatful for a lower level washroom for our family member who could not do stairs. Definitely appreciated that. Overall nice visit.

We visited this place in the middle of the day, and it was quite empty. The service was very slow, and everything felt a bit messy. The oysters were fresh and delicious, but the cocktails were below average. The spot itself is extremely beautiful. I would recommend going for the atmosphere and experience, but not for the food.

What a jewel to find in the most beautiful city in the world. I discovered the absolute best white wine of my life, thanks to Yanis our outstanding waiter. The foie gras was amazing. The bread was almost to beautiful yo eat…. But ate we did! We ordered the Petits-pois à la française et oursin des côtes bretonne and the filet de merlu ….. delicious! We were so hungry and taken with the dishes I didn’t snap a picture of it…… We were greeted by Sarah what a lovely hostess she was and knowledgeable about the menu and the city. The ambiance the decor is almost as wonderful as the food. What a great experience we will be returning in September!

Beautiful restaurant with many private rooms you can book. Definitely on the pricier end but you’re also paying for the beautiful space. Food looks like very classic French food done well, nothing crazy. Drinks are on the pricier end too. But would definitely come back for a drinks night!

Our experience was wonderful. Such a beautiful and peaceful location. The staff is extremely warm and helpful. Our server, Louis was exceptionally good. He was patient, knowledgeable, kind and accommodating. He helped make the experience. We would come back for sure. Oh, and the food was absolutely delicious. They care about the quality of their food and will take anything back that you are not satisfied with.

The food was so delicious here. It’s predominately Italian food but done very well. The pizzas are huge and pasta’s just the right serving. The restarting is set in a small quiet courtyard which made it perfect for families with children as they could run around opposite the restarting without risk of being run over by a vehicle or scooter. The outdoor area is full of majority smokers however tables are far enough apart to not impact you too greatly if you don’t like it.

This has become one of our go-to restaurants in Paris. It's very close to our hotel and the food is consistently good. All the pizzas easily feed a person (usually with a slice or two left over) and some are quite large (they actually bring them out on 2 plates because 1 isn't big enough). My pizza was one of the large ones. The crust was thin and the edges were slightly more done, which I prefer. They were also able to accommodate my dietary prefernces by leaving off the cheese as I don't eat dairy. The service is really good, as well. We have one server that we love because she's so helpful and attentive, but we've never had bad service. I recommend making a reservation, as they are always quite busy. And while they may be able to accommodate you without a reservation, you will likely be subjected to a deep sigh and what I like to call the Paris "I can't believe you didn't make a reservation" eye roll. 😁 I highly recommend brecommend this restaurant for pizza.

This restaurants benefits from one the unique and remarkably beautiful spots in Paris that is both authentic and clean!! So you can inagine how sitting outside, being lucky to have the sun and then eating, drinking saomething here can be pleasant here!!! The artchitecture in this little square and buildings around it is amazing! So, i have given four stars as one is just for the vibe and unique view here. Then not all for the food experience!! In general the food was quite ok, we forgot to take pictures of all foods and one deessert we shared but all was quite OK! Just OK, ok?! From such Italian restaurant I expected more when I ordered veal milanese! Bdut for me it was not a "wow" kind of experiene neither the serving nor the taste.

A modern-style refined Italian restaurant, this establishment has a high class atmosphere and on the quality of the cuisine it provides it certainly delivers. The Frettuccine al Pesto Genovese is a stand out for me, and the Tiramisu I shared was absolutely delicious. If you're staying around the Palais Garnier this is a dining experience I wholeheartedly recommend.

Went there with my colleagues for dinner. We sat outside, and there is no traffic what so ever, one of the big advantages with this place. We all ordered pizza. The food was delivered to our table quickly, even though we were more than ten people ordering. Pizza was on two plates and tasted very well. For dessert we ordered Tiramisu. Also very good. Some reviews tell that they had to pay with cash. We payed with credit card, without any problem.

We enjoyed the oysters very much! Franck and his colleagues are nice and attentive to our needs especially in helping us to change to more spacious seats. My husband and I had the best oysters ever!! We would definitely come back when we visit Paris next time!!😋😋😋

We had a nice time here thanks to Laurent (I believe he was at least the floor manager?) who explained me nicely the wine and the appellation and what he recommended alongside the food we ordered. This exceptional service on top of the ambiance of this place made the wonderful dining experience for us. Thanks again and I hope whoever will visit this restaurant will have a chance to meet Laurent.

Fantastic dining experience - from the textiles to the attention to detail… all perfection. Grateful for the late night dining option!! We ended up doing the meal + dessert of the day - tremendous value! I’ve attached images for reference :) Special thanks to Shimul for his five star hospitality and warmth. He was the cherry on top of a magical dinner.

I was slightly nervous after reading some of the not so nice reviews about this restaurant but I am SO glad that I kept the reservation and trusted the esteemed recommendation that I had received. This was all around an amazing experience. The restaurant decor, the ambience, the service, the wine and the food were so very good. On top of that, the 'experience' of their plating and service; the tartare, the lemon sorbet. The tartare was outstanding, with a kick of spice. Everyone was friendly and attentive but not over the top which is how I like it. Highly recommend and ignore the lukewarm reviews.

Just what we needed on a rainy day in Paris! Walking distance from the Louvre. Luckily didn’t have to wait long for a seat even though the place was packed. Ramen was very delicious, Gyudon was very good! Highly recommend a visit!

Mega verity of dishes, generous portions, fresh and tasty. You can choose solo or go with side options. Liked a lot!

One of the best meals we’ve had in Paris this summer. I had the Yaki Udon and my wife had the Gyuniku Uson (soupy). Both were delicious. It was near our hotel and we could see the waiting line every day so we decided to give it a try. We didn’t have to wait since we had an early dinner. Approved and Highly recommended.
Samer Aoudi - a month ago

The food tastes really good, I’ve been there a few times already. There can be some waiting before getting in but I’d say it’s pretty worth it. It’s a huge restaurant so the wait isn’t usually that long but be aware that in the evening and on the weekends it’s packed! The service can be a bit slow, once again understandable considering the fact there’s a lot of people but it should be noted. The prices are pretty fair for food in Paris, not too expensive.

Kintaro Ramen offers an excellent dining experience with quality food at reasonable prices. I had the miso soup, which was flavorful and comforting, boasting a rich broth and fresh ingredients like tofu and green onions. The portion was generous for the price, making it a great choice for anyone seeking an affordable yet satisfying meal. Overall, Kintaro Ramen is a must-visit for ramen lovers!

Great food and really lovely staff! Ate there twice. On the first night, the roast chicken took a little while to arrive, but it was faster the second time.

Exceptional dinning experience. The staffs were really friendly, observant and helpful. The overall experience was really relaxed, the space was not overcrowded, no one felt like they were being rushed. The food and dessert were exceptional. It was the best meal we had in Paris, would highly recommend.

Great bistro for wines especially Burgundy. The list is very interesting but of course many top wines were already sold out. The food needs attention as I don't think it was really good. I find it disappointing as they tend to use modern elements on the dish which is probably not needed. Sometimes less is more.

I had a lovely lunch here, thanks to a friend’s recommendation. Despite the place being packed, I was able to get a seat at the bar without a reservation. I ordered a course meal, starting with a delicious cream soup served with focaccia. For the main course, I had pan-fried fish with roasted veggies, paired with a creative turnip purée infused with kimchi spice—such a unique and flavorful combination! The food was thoughtfully prepared, and the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. As a sweet surprise, they even offered me a freshly baked madeleine on the house. I can’t recommend this place enough—one of my favorite dining experiences in Paris so far!

This place was recommended to us by our concierge at the MO. We wanted to get a nice last minute dinner and this place was absolutely perfect. We were most impressed by the wine list and the bartender that gave us his recommendations. He was incredibly knowledgeable and very passionate about his wine. It was too impressive! The dinner and desert itself was very nice on its own! It was quiet and slow for their dinner service that night, so we got to enjoy some great food and a little bit of peace. Also, the cut on the steak was perfect! Beautiful marbling and it came through on the flavor.

I had the pleasure of visiting Bistro Volnay for the second time last night, and I am once again thoroughly impressed. The knowledgeable and friendly staff truly go above and beyond to create a memorable dining experience. Their wine list is exceptional, and the staff gladly assist in suggesting perfectly paired wines that fit both the occasion and the budget, elevating the overall combination of food and wine. A restaurant that consistently impresses with its professionalism and passion for quality. Looking forward to my next visit!

A romantic, beautiful, and quiet place with charm and excellent food. Very accommodating if visiting with a child – they’re happy to prepare a dish that’s not on the menu.

We held a small event in the downstairs area followed by a lunch in the semi-private dining room. The restaurant was busy but our host and the rest of the waiting staff were very accommodating including finding extra space and bringing lunch out early for those people that needed to rush off. The food and wine served was excellent. We'll definitely be back!

Absolutely horrific service experience. Arrived at 12:15 and very clearly told the waiter that 2 of us had to leave by 13:30. By 12:26 we actually had our appetizers and it started well. But then by 13:20 we still did not have the main course. We waned them multiple times between 13:00 and 13:20. We ended up having to leave not having eaten our main course. Very poor service with waiters that kept just answering that "it is coming"...
