What makes it different?

Curated, personal, and built to save you time

Travelers can spend a lot of time researching restaurants in Paris, reading discussion forums, sorting through review sites and still miss the places that are best suited to them.

JJ's Paris List does the work for you. It does not try to rank all restaurants in Paris. Instead, it draws from a carefully curated list of places good enough for food-focused visitors and matches you to 25 places that fit your preferences.

  • Not a generic list of “top 10” places.
  • Focused on good food and customer fit.
  • Includes classics, modern spots, casual places, bakeries, cafés and more.

About JJ

Built by someone who spends a lot of time thinking about where to eat in Paris

I have to admit I spend most of my time in Paris eating and planning where I am going to eat. After years of helping friends, family, co-workers and anybody else who asked find great places to eat, I decided to launch JJ's Paris List to provide this joy-enhancing, time-saving information.

JJ's Paris List is rooted in personal curation. The point is not to cover every place in Paris. The point is to help you quickly find places that are likely to suit you well.
