Bistrot des Tournelles

Opened just a few years ago near Bastille, Bistrot des Tournelles already feels like a timeless Parisian institution. Within its century old décor, chef Geoffroy Langella, Ferrandi-trained and the son of Neapolitan butchers, serves impeccably executed bistro staples: oeuf mayo, steak au poivre, and a decadent, buttery croque monsieur. The well curated wine list is a highlight, and in true convivial spirit, the restaurant opens only for dinner, with walk-ins welcome at the bar.
