Food
Founded in 2003 by Alain Fontaine, Le Mesturet occupies a historic address dating to 1883 near the Bourse district. The decor of exposed stone and vintage finds sets a relaxed backdrop for house-made dishes such as blanquette de veau and Paris-Brest, prepared with fresh, traceable produce. Holder of the Maître-Restaurateur title, it also offers a wine list of over one hundred labels, from small producers to classified growths, served by bottle, pichet or glass.
✨ Reasons to go
💡 Good to know
It's small, loud, and tables are close together, so book ahead especially for lunch when it fills with locals. Try classics like the duckburger or Paris-Brest.

What people say
"CASSEROLE OF BURGUNDY SNAILS, SMOKED HERRING FROM BOULOGNE-SUR-MER, THE DUCKBURGER, STEAMED RAINBOW TROUT FILLET, THE REAL PARIS-BREST, CRÈME BRÛLÉE. All superb. Service was impeccable, price reasonable. DUCKBURGER was so flavourful as was the rainbow trout filet. Dessert was absolutely delicious. Our server, Ewa, was amazing. Attentive and efficient. Highly recommend."
