The super generous tasting menu at newly opened le 21 is food nerd heaven, with loads of clever winks at French fine dining traditions (and a few American twists). But ultimately – and most importantly – deliciousness here is never sacrificed on the altar of nerdiness.

Judy is flexitarian café serving heaps of gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options in a brightly lit space steps from the Jardin de Luxembourg. In sum, it’s the perfect place for a lunchtime catchup or to linger over a juice for the afternoon.

The menu at this industrial-chic bistro frequently offers variations on a theme: Appetizers often hail from the sea (as is perhaps apt, given that it’s owned by the same folks who helm Fish La Boissonnerie across the street), while ceviches and marinated fish are frequent fliers.

A classic bistro worth its salt.
