The façade is more reminiscent of an Auto Grill than one of Paris’s great (if off-the-beaten-path) restaurants. Tucked into the 14ème, this restaurant is known for its fresh and expertly prepared seafood dishes, like classic moules frites, oysters and grilled mullet. And the wine list—particularly the white section—is exceptional and underpriced.

ProTip
La Cagouille also takes its cognac selection seriously. Ask to see a list after dinner.
