Paris restaurants located within a 5 minute walk of Palais Royal - Musée du Louvre Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

The Grand Hotel du Palais Royal has it all- lovely rooms, attentive staff, and a walkable location just north of the Louvre. It was the perfect home base for our vacation in Paris. The rooms are spacious with comfortable bedding and an updated bathroom. We loved the views from the balcony of our junior suite. We were able to stay in the rooftop suite on our last night, and the terrace view includes the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, and even Sacré Cœur in the distance. Everyone on staff was friendly and helpful. We loved our Paris visit, and we highly recommend this property!

Stunning hotel! Staff go the extra mile to make every guest feel welcome. Breakfast is top notch, products are of excellent quality and the restaurant is fabulous too with many tasty and healthy options. You leave this hotel feeling rejuvenated and refreshed, wonderful experience!

The location is great for first time visitors who want to see a lot of famous museums. The room is quite small and we had plumbing issue two nights in a row, not pleasant. The breakfast is ok, not that great for the price you pay. Service is very good and I especially like the 24-hr access to their beautiful hammam and gym.

Stayed here for the amazing location as my partner and I were out and about walking the city all day. We had some issues with noise disturbance in our first room but Clara moved us to a stunning new room that more than made up for the first 2 nights. Staff was nothing but friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was great (ours was free, so not sure about value) with a beautiful buffet and the option to order an omelette. Would definitely recommend!

Our stay at Grand Hotel du Palais Royal two weeks ago was perfect! We were celebrating our anniversary and the hotel gave us a room with a small balcony to make experience even more memorable. The hotel held our bags in the morning until our room was ready & offered us the opportunity to get washed up to refresh from our red-eye flight. They also held our bags upon checkout. The room was immaculate and the included breakfast was wonderful with lots of buffet options as well as the opportunity to have eggs made to order. The location of the hotel was ideal for a visit to the Louvre. I would not hesitate to stay here again on my next visit to Paris!

We had the most amazing time at this restaurant! All of my friends came together, and it honestly could not have been a better experience. From the moment we walked in, the vibe was so cute and welcoming the atmosphere made it perfect for hanging out and celebrating together. We ordered so many big meals, and everything was absolutely delicious. The portions were generous, and every dish was packed with flavor. They also kept the bread coming, which we loved such a simple touch, but it made the meal even better! The staff was so kind and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed the whole time. We felt so taken care of. We had the best time, ate amazing food, and made the best memories. We love this place so much and can’t wait to come back! 💛✨

Dinner was excellent! Was seated immediately at 8:30PM on a Saturday. The service was fantastic and the dishes were even better. Special mention to: onion soup, escargot, and creme brulee. The chicken was juicy, the beef tartare was plentiful, and the steak was cooked nicely medium rare (albeit a bit chewy). Fries were great!

Café de la Régence offers a wonderful experience with a great location and traditionally prepared French cuisine. It's a fantastic spot for people-watching and enjoying classic dishes. I highly recommend starting with the Charcuterie Board. It was generous, featuring a great selection of high-quality cured meats and patés, perfectly complemented by cornichons and excellent crusty bread. It’s ideal for sharing and soaking in the bistro ambiance. The Onion Soup here is a must-try. It was served piping hot, boasting a deep, rich, and slightly sweet broth, loaded with tender caramelized onions and crowned with a thick layer of gratinéed cheese. It provided the ultimate French comfort. To finish, the Crème Brûlée was spot on. The custard was smooth, creamy, and infused with vanilla, topped with a brittle, perfectly torched sugar crust. It was the flawless, satisfying conclusion to a wonderful Parisian meal. Café de la Régence is a charming spot that executes these French staples with skill and quality.

I stopped here randomly on my last night in Paris. I had a nice solo seat in the corner and was able to enjoy my meal and people watch. I ordered the French onion soup as well as the baked chicken and a small carafe of wine (we definitely need this option in the US) The soup was exactly what I wanted very flavorful, nice and hot. Definitely recommend. The baked chicken I was worried would not be that tasty as I hadn't been impressed with my other options in Paris during my trip, but this did not disappoint. Very flavorful and delicious. I ended the evening with a crème brûlée, which was so good I had to stop my myself from finishing it all. if you are in the area, definitely give this place a try.

Had a lunch here whilst on a walking tour, and it really made a lovely diversion from the hustle outside. Servers were very efficient, note lunch is strictly served from midday. Food was amazing, beautifully presented and faster than we expected. The atmosphere is a mixture between Library/Museum and funky hipster bar, with quirky displays of Lego model, portraits of the Masters on the walls, and mixed level seating.

A really cozy Japanese restaurant in the city and one of my favourites for years. Reservations are highly recommended, though solo diners can often try their luck with a seat at the bar. It’s on the pricier side, but the quality is consistently excellent (really good sushi!) and the service is incredibly attentive. Highly recommend.

My Favorite Japanese Restaurant in Paris Whenever I’m in Paris and want delicious, authentic Japanese food, I go to Takara. The sashimi is always fresh, and their Wagyu hot pot is absolutely wonderful—tender, rich, and deeply satisfying. It’s a reliable, welcoming place with genuine flavors and consistently good service. A true standout for Japanese cuisine in the city. Highly recommend.

Overall, a nice restaurant for sukiyaki; however, the other dishes were just okay. Service was welcoming and friendly and environment was a typical Japanese tavern. My fav: Sukiyaki (5⭐) — the soup was flavorful, and the meat was fresh and well prepared Shabu-Shabu & Sashimi Omakase (4⭐) — I personally preferred the sukiyaki over the shabu-shabu. I found the shabu-shabu soup a bit bland, while I liked the sesame vinegar sauce on the side, we barely used the other sauce. On the other hand, the sashimi omakase was fresh, but not to the point where I think it was worth it. Tempura (3.5⭐) — A nice variety of veggies that allowed us to try a bit of everything. However, I found the dipping sauce on the side disappointing — a bit bland as well.

Takara is a great spot for authentic Japanese cuisine in Paris, with a long history dating back to 1958. We enjoyed everything we had, and the prices felt quite reasonable, especially considering the quality and location. The service was helpful and nice, and the atmosphere had a warm, simple, Japanese-style charm. It feels more like a genuine Japanese restaurant than a tourist-focused place, which made the experience even better. Highly recommended if you enjoy Japanese cuisine.

The food was amazing, sashimi was so tasty, no bad smell. The small sukiyaki was very good as well. The soup was not too salty that I could sip from time to time and the server did a small demonstration of cooking it. The service and atmosphere were great also, very calm, nicely decorated and I could smell wood from the furniture. Really authentic. However the price is very high, might be good to go for a special occasion.

Authentic and amazing Izakaya style restaurant between the Opéra Garnier and the Louvre. The place is really packed for lunch which explains why they do not take reservations at that time but only for dinner. The lunch menu is complete and the portions are generous. The Una Don (grilled eel) is mouth watering and the chirashi special is complete and the fish is fresh. The service is nice despite a bit of waiting at the beginning but then it chilled really fast. Good is a really good place and I would love to try their dishes at dinner time.

The sushi rice was a bit too salty, which slightly overpowered the fish. I was asked whether I could accept wasabi, but there was no wasabi included in the sushi. The fish was safe to eat, but the freshness did not really stand out — not “bad” or risky, just lacking the clean, fresh flavor. Unagi appetizer is good btw.

I really liked this Japanese restaurant - both in terms of taste and service. I ordered sushi (nigiri) and having some experience with omakase I know that chefs usually put wasabi inside. This makes the taste more complete, so that nothing stands out. I was pleasantly surprised when I was asked how I wanted it: with wasabi inside or on the side. It may seem like a small thing, but it is details like this that make for great service. Another big plus was that I was offered a seat at the counter, where I could watch the sushi being prepared. Watching the process is a pleasure in itself. Everything tasted great: fresh, precise, and very nicely balanced. I will definitely come back here and sincerely recommend this place to everyone. One word of advice: it is better to book a table in advance so you dont end up without a seat.

I went to Zen for lunch and had a good experience. The set menus are well-priced and quite generous. The teriyaki salmon was definitely better than the miso one—more flavorful and less dry. Sushi and sashimi were decent, nothing exceptional, but fair for the price. Service was friendly and efficient. Would come back, especially to try the donburi menus—seems like that’s what most people order.

The food was delicious, salmon teriyaki was incredible. Finished our meal with tasty desserts. The staff is so friendly and welcoming.

Hands down the best ramen broth I have ever had. The tonkotsu ramen broth was so rich! The spot also gives vibes of a genuine Noodle Shop from Japan. Not only is the food delicious but it is probably one of the cheapest options in the area. I paid around $68 for three ramen and 3 drinks.

Just left and had to leave a review. I don’t work in but know the restaurant industry and the (open) kitchen was spotless when I arrived. These pictures are halfway into lunch service and everything is still very clean. A clean kitchen is a mark of professionalism. The machines in use have warning labels in Japanese; which mean they were clearly imported from Japan which is an indicator of the authenticity of the place. In terms of atmosphere it was small and cramped.. just like in Japan. It just added to the experience. Most of the employees and the woman working the register were clearly Japanese. I had tonkotsu ramen, which is usually a disappointment in restaurants in Europe because they never get the broth right. Here the broth clearly tasted of pork hocks and was very gelatinous, with full body which indicates that it was in fact the real deal. It was delicious. They used arugula as one of the toppings which, to me, is a good sign. It’s not “traditional” and as such many restaurants in Europe that are trying to sell the “idea” of traditional ramen shy away from it, but it’s common as a contemporary topping in Japan itself. Ramen and a coke came just under 20 euro; but they have more affordable combos on the menu. Overall very happy, probably the best ramen I’ve had in Europe.

This restaurant is 5 stars all the way around. The food was absolutely amazing, we ordered the Spicy Tori Furai Don and the Tori Furai Curry and they were both 10/10. It’s a pretty good price, great portions, the service was quick and the waiter was nice. Nothing bad to say.

My friends and I stopped here for lunch. Cozy and authentic vibes. The food was served instantly and the servers were super friendly. Highly recommend the spicy chicken rice bowl, the vegetarian noodles and the ramen (to which I added a marinated egg). Will definitely come back here

Such a nice place to spend time and just wonder. Lovely staff, they are friendly and got a sense of humour :D Everybody liked the food and desserts. Wine was tasty. I thought the place would be much more expensive due to location but no. Thankyouu!

Got ourselves into Le Nemours for dessert and couldn't have made a better choice. The terrace overlooking the currently under renovation Comédie-Française is simply super relaxing, watching people pass one way and another. Definitely one of the most iconic spots in Paris. We tried what I believe was a tarte aux pommes and a praliné dome, both beautifully crafted and absolutely delicious. But honestly, the waiters were half the experience. Full of charm and wit! I suspect they moonlight at the Comédie-Française right in front of them! Perfectly Parisian in the best possible way. A must if you're near the Louvre / Palais Royal. Great to relax, stay for the pastry and the banter.

went there with my friends and we had an amazing experience!! very friendly and sweet staff and the cutest place near the louvre. i was not a huge fan of what i ordered but i truly believe it was just bad luck, as both of my friends told me they enjoyed their food. will definitely come back in the future to try something else!
maria - 3 weeks ago

Le Nemours is the kind of place where you can sit back, enjoy the moment, and feel wonderfully taken care of. The service was consistently excellent — friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. With every drink we were served a small selection of chips, a simple gesture that added to the charm and comfort of the experience.

We had a fantastic experience here after visiting the Louvre! Food, drinks, and service were outstanding. It hasn't always been easy eating out here with a baby as non-French-speaking tourists, but this place was an exception to that in the best possible way. I can't recommend it highly enough!

On the facade it doesn't look like a good Chinese restaurant with their ordinary signage ..however decided to try to check it out since the menu says it has a variety of my fave dishes. To my surprise 😮 the food is excellent in taste though portions just about right for 2 persons. We ordered quite abit from fried spring rolls steamed pork and crab( dumplings skin was nicely done and the inner was juicy when you bite into the skin)pork ribs bamboo shoot soup dongpo braised pork(not the best sauce needs more seasoning or 3 layer pork need more cooking time shredded beef with 🫑 capsicum fried string beans with mince pork in hot chilli oil.Overall it's a goto place if you're craving for Chinese foods.

Had a good dinner at Autour du Yangtse.All food was fresh and all tasty. The shrimp dumplings were steaming fresh and hot when served. The hot and sour soup was wounderful, very spicy and again - steaming hot. The main dish was a spicy version of Kung Pao Chicken. My reservation was at 18:30, opening time. I was the first to arrived, but the small restaurant was full within a few minutes. The place was clean. Most of the diners were Asian. A truly nice dinner,

5 star for their Xiao long bao. 100% homemade as we could see the lady (that we guessed she’s the grandma) making the dumpling behind the counter. They also steamed the dumpling when received your order. The dumpling skin was not too thick, perfect to our taste. Filling was juicy with broth. However the broth was a bit sweeter compared the other address in Paris. The pork rib soup was so purely done and overpriced. Only good address for Xiao long bao

We stopped by Naniwa-Ya for a quick Japanese meal. The place has a casual Japanese eatery vibe, nothing fancy, but comfortable enough for a straightforward meal. The katsu curry was probably the best thing we had. The curry sauce was nice, rich enough to be satisfying, and the fried cutlet was cooked properly with a decent crisp on the outside. It’s the kind of dish that’s hard to mess up, and this one did the job well. The udon, unfortunately, was a bit underwhelming. The broth lacked depth and flavour, and the bowl felt quite sparse in terms of ingredients. For what it costs, it didn’t quite deliver the comfort or richness you’d expect. It came across a little bland and slightly overpriced for what was served. The set salad was very average, pretty standard and nothing memorable. The gyoza, though, was the weakest part of the meal. The filling lacked flavour and the overall taste just didn’t work. Definitely something I wouldn’t order again. On the positive side, service was fast and efficient. Orders were taken quickly and food arrived without much waiting, which is always appreciated when you’re just looking for a quick bite. Overall, Naniwa-Ya is fine if you’re nearby and want something simple. The katsu curry is worth ordering, but other items on the menu feel hit or miss, especially considering the price point.

Came in on Saturday right before 19.00 sitting at the bar since I am party of one. Asked the waiter to recommend their specials which the cold egg noodles and seafood balls. They were both good with the noodles fresh. Ordered beef cheeks as extra because I was very hungry. The cheeks lack tenderness but cooked well. At 19.30 there were many people queuing for seats. Overall, the food was good.

We ordered 5 tapes and a soba . The price is good and quality okay . It’s a bit oily and salty somehow . It’s can be good if it is less oily . I also order a take out salmon roe on rice . It is fresh and large , enough for two meals. I have not try the ramen or rice dish but I think they can be on point from what I saw. It’s hard to find such a causal place to have a meal and catch up with friends. The bar chair is a little high and can be hard to sit on it . There are less than 8 tables available. Overall it can be a good place to order take out . A little overpriced on some appetizers such as the spinach and the pumpkin

The restaurant has a great atmosphere and a beautiful décor, but unfortunately the food really isn’t up to the same standard. We ordered the homerice and the udon: the homerice was honestly not good at all, and the udon noodles were overcooked. The tempura was completely soggy, and the meat was of particularly poor quality. Overall, the setting is lovely, but the dishes were quite disappointing.
Elsa Jouanjan - 4 months ago

Portions were okay. Ordered oyakodon, tempura udon and draft beer. Oyakodon's egg could be made more runny but the chicken pieces were good. Udon may have been overcooked as it was a bit mushy rather than springy and soup was saltier than expected. Also this was the only time in Paris where we were asked for a tip. Perhaps it's a common practice in the area.

It's one of the oldest Korean restaurants in Paris. The guide recommended it, so I visited, but it wasn't particularly impressive to me. The food wasn't bad, but it was a bit old-fashioned, and the table guidance was a bit inconvenient. I was directed to the second floor, which was relatively quiet... Despite the very narrow table spacing, I deliberately gathered people in one corner and guided them. Thanks to that, the Frenchwoman who visited alone had to eat at almost the same table as us. Recently, many high-quality Korean restaurants have been opening, so it seems that improvements are needed. Nevertheless, the lines here were always long. It must be because they worked so hard here. I recommend visiting.

I went to Jantchi with my family, and we had a great experience. We ordered the seafood bibimbap, which was very good, and the Korean barbecue. The meat was incredibly tender and flavorful, making the meal really enjoyable. The service was excellent, with helpful servers who made sure we had everything we needed. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and I’d definitely recommend it!

It was perfect. Very large quantities and still steaming when the meat and noodles arrived. What a feat. It was also very quick (much much quicker than your average french or even Chinese in France). Super tasty too. Highly recommend. We came around 9pm and almost did not wait (yet the place was packed and some people had to wait outside after us). 33 euros for 2.large dishes. Inexpensive and fulfilling
