Septime is a restaurants restaurant in the Array arrondissement of Paris.

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.
