A critical question for any traveler to Paris, and even some locals: What are the best places to eat? That's where we come in—to help you find the tables worth your time (and euros) in one of the most visited cities on the planet. No reservations? No problem. On a budget? We've got you. From the newest tables in Paris to business meals to budget-friendly options, here are some restaurants to try.

NEW HOTSPOT

In the heart of Paris' affluent 8th arrondissement is chef Irwin Durand's first restaurant. It's a minimalist, modern layout featuring an intimate 22-seat dining room and a more exclusive eight-seat chef's table that opens directly onto the kitchen.

The 35-year-old Guy Savoy protégé showcases terroir-focused dishes on his oft-changing tasting menus that range from three to seven courses (€68-€160, or $78-$183). Recent highlights included a palate-cleansing marjoram-infused vegetable broth; green asparagus served with lemon-thyme mayonnaise; and calf sweetbread slow-braised in reduced jus, with stewed green vegetables. Sommelier Mickaël Larrive's well-curated wine list features a strong selection of Champagnes and Burgundies.

NO RESERVATIONS NEEDED
