Septime is one of Paris’s most celebrated modern bistros, at 80 Rue de Charonne in the 11th arrondissement near Bastille. Chef Bertrand Grébaut earned a Michelin star here in 2014 and the restaurant has been a fixture on the World’s 50 Best list for years. It helped define the city’s “bistronomy” movement: serious, produce-driven cooking served in a relaxed, contemporary room.

What to expect at Septime

Grébaut’s cooking celebrates fine produce with a fresh, confident, ingredient-led approach. Menus change constantly and lean on seasonality, sustainability and precise but unfussy technique. The atmosphere is hip and unpretentious — pared-back décor, an easy buzz — while the food remains seriously good. The catch is access: Septime is famously hard to book, with daily reservation releases snapped up almost instantly, so plan well ahead.
