5TH DISTRICT
CategoryThe 5th Arrondissement of Paris is one of the best known of the city’s central districts, located on the Left Bank (Rive Gauche) of the river Seine. Also commonly known as the “Latin Quarter” (le quartier Latin) because the first great Parisian university, the Sorbonne, was founded there.
Restaurants in some parts of the 5th are tourist traps. Please AVOID the restaurants located Rue Saint Michel. They don’t represent at all French Cuisine
I mentionned some spots I tested in this area and which are really good.
Weren’t you able to book a table at the Beef Club steakhouse ?
I have 2 other options in my pocket J The first option is Atelier Carnem (the 2nd is Bidoche in the 11th district).
I haven’t had the occasion to taste their food yet, but the reviews made me want to rush to this restaurant !
For instance, please find below the Gault& Millau review, a very renowned restaurant guide.
