They are the best so we promise you won’t have to give up on the flavor!
In a hurry? Here are my top picks:
- Most environmentally friendly: Grand Beau
- Cheapest: Rôtisserie Coquin
- Most original cuisine: Le Pollop
Here is a map to locate the restaurants of my list:
1) Alimento
9 rue de Pontoise 75005 Paris
Between colleagues or friends, Alimento is THE place to spend an evening. You’ll be taken directly to Rome and its beautiful pizzas.
Once it’s aperitif time, warm up the atmosphere with a glass of prosecco and a soft focaccia accompanied by piatti piccoli, unless you prefer to settle down to start your dinner.
As a starter, there are piatti (plates to share), octopus carpaccios accompanied by citrus fruits, or a nice plate of greenery (zucchini, aubergines and grilled artichokes). The pizzas are clearly a must in this restaurant: made with Italian Molino Spadoni flour, which the chef leaves to rise for 3 days. And if you prefer pasta, let yourself be tempted by the spaghetti carbonara—the real Italian recipe.
With its capacity of about forty people, this restaurant is perfect for private or professional events.
Price: €9 for appetizers, €18 for pasta, €16 for pizzas and €8 for desserts
