Our Guide to Paris: Macéo

The more elegant sibling of Willi’s Wine Bar, Maceo’s grand, light filled dining room on the edge of the Palais Royale has plenty of romantic appeal. Thierry Bourbonnais offers elegant, seasonal cooking — there is even a vegetarian menu — and the wine list runs deep. Large tables and rooms available for private booking make this a good choice for groups.
