The people behind Candelaria are back with a new place serving wild oysters by the piece, outstanding small plates, serious cocktails, natural wine, and craft beer.
Natural wines, great products, in an exquisite old space. Slightly draconian hours.
Flora herself does the cooking at this urban inn, offering a range of shareable small plates, or a heftier menu (at higher prices).
Juan Sanchez and Drew Harré expand their empire (Fish, Cosi, La Dernière Goutte) with this contemporary bistro, offering market-driven plates in full or half size, in a renovated Saint Germain space with a gleaming open kitchen.
Spanish chef Sergi Arola heads this flagship table at the new W Hotel. Small plates, not-so-small prices.
An easy-going, all-day spot from Antoine Heerah.
The small plates have big flavors at this no-reservations wine bar from the couple behind Hidden Kitchen. For something more formal, book the restaurant upstairs.
This wine bar next door to (and run by) Le Chateaubriand boasts food by Inaki Aizpitarte, a smooth marble design by Rem Koolhaas and Clement Blanchet, and a great selection of affordable vins naturels
Expertly mixed cocktails and natural wines coexist peacefully at this low-key bar à manger.
An Izakaya joint, serving small plates, Japanese beer and cocktails, in the heart of the touristville.
James Henry’s small plates range from the standard charcuterie and now-obligatory burrata to more light and creative fare, based on great products from the likes of Terroirs d’Avenir and Joël Thiébault. The vibe is relaxed, the prices are right, and the wines are natural.
If you want a taste of Gregory Marchand’s cooking without the challenge of scoring a reservation at Frenchie, this is where to go.
Small plates rule at this mod address in the 9th.
Once upon a time, Olivier Magny ran wine tastings and classes out of his own apartment. Now he’s opened a vast, slick wine bar near Les Halles with a list of about 500 bottles and 40 glass pours.
A salade landaise served as a spring roll, mini croissants with truffles and ham, sardine rillettes, crisp polenta with smoked duck: This new address from Julien Duboué of Afaria serves up a lengthy list of creative tapas for gourmand grazing.
The thing at Bellota-Bellota is jamon-jamon.
