Michelin Star Restaurants in Paris: 92 One-Star Tables
One Michelin star covers a surprising range in Paris: an eight-seat sushi counter, a Belle Époque bistro, French technique spiked with Thai and Vietnamese flavors. The star tells you the cooking is excellent. It says nothing about whether you'll get a hushed dining room or candlelight and opera music, and that's the part that makes or breaks your night.
These are the 92 Michelin star restaurants in Paris holding one star, with the vibe, the must-try dishes and the prices laid out for each. Ready to go further? Compare the 2-star tables, or look beyond stars in our fine dining selection.

Choosing among the Michelin star restaurants in Paris
With this many one-star tables, start with the kind of evening you want, then let the filters handle neighborhood and opening hours. Here's how the list breaks down.
Classic French, done properly
Benoit Paris has served bistro cooking in the same Belle Époque room since 1912: pâté en croûte, cassoulet, a vanilla millefeuille. Near the Eiffel Tower, Le Violon d'Ingres cooks the flavors of the Southwest, from roasted blue lobster to duck confit cassoulet, with a lunch menu from €58. More in our traditional restaurants.
Chef-driven and relaxed
The one-star level is where the modern Paris bistro shines. Septime serves a no-choice seasonal menu with natural wine. Frenchie runs a five-course menu on rue du Nil that ends on a banoffee pie. Virtus, near the Marché d'Aligre, plates line-caught brill meunière in a 70s-style room. Our trendy restaurants page has more in this spirit.
A world tour on one star
Some of the city's most personal cooking lives here. At MoSuke, in the 14th, Top Chef finalist Mory Sacko blends African heritage and Japanese technique. Shabour serves Israeli-inspired sharing plates around a marble counter in the 2nd. Ze Kitchen Galerie mixes French technique with Thai and Vietnamese flavors, and Sushi-B serves omakase to eight guests at a time. See also our Japanese restaurants and the chefs from Top Chef.
Where to look, and when to book
The 8th has the most one-star tables, followed by the 16th and the 7th. They all sit in the top price range, so lunch menus are usually the gentlest way in. Small rooms book out fast: Sushi-B has eight seats, and Shabour opens its bookings three weeks ahead. Want Michelin-approved cooking for less? The Bib Gourmand list is the guide's good-value selection. Then open any place to check the dishes worth ordering and what reviewers didn't like.
