Foreword
One of the greatest challenges in every trip to Paris is finding good restaurants for a reasonable cost, and if possible, ones that are located in the area you happen to be in, so that you don’t have to quit your route just to have a decent meal.
The best way to find a good restaurant is to be aided by recommendations from myself and other Francophiles. Unlike other articles, this list is constantly being updated, and therefore it is recommended to check it every time you travel to Paris. In order to make things easier for you, I divided this article into Arrondissements, so that you can easily find a restaurant to your liking wherever you are at any given moment.
One more thing before we get to business: if you find an excellent restaurant in Paris, I would be very glad if you could share this information with the Francophiles’ community, and write down the name of the restaurants in the comments, along with a short summary.
Actually, there’s one last thing before we start. A few years ago, while I was writing the article about visiting Paris on a budget, I discovered the website The Fork. This is a website that allows you to make reservations in restaurants, as well as to save money. How come? Because for every reservation you make, you accumulate points (100-200 points for every reservation), which later on you can convert to discounts in restaurants (for example: if you accumulated 1000 points, you can convert them to a 10 Euro discount).
Moreover, quite a few restaurants on this website give discounts for their menus at certain times of the day. These discounts can go up to 50% from the price of the dishes in the menu, and when it comes to expensive restaurants, this can sometimes save many tens of Euros per person. Not all of the restaurants in this article work with that website, but you can recognise those who do by the links reserve a place in this restaurant and see additional details located underneath the restaurant description (also, the restaurants working with The Fork will be marked in a green fork on my map). Therefore, if you’re having difficulties choosing between two restaurant, I always recommend going for the one working with this website. I have been using this service for a long time, and it saved my quite a lot of money.
Hungry? Well, let’s start our search.

Map of recommended restaurants in Paris
Please note that there are two types of restaurants in this map: the first type is marked in green, and in these restaurants you can reserve a table via The Fork and get discounts. The second type is marked in black, and these are recommended restaurants that don’t work with this service just yet.
