Le Comptoir du Relais

9, carrefour de l'Odéon

This is the best restaurant in Saint-Germain-des-Pres. Chef Yves Camdeborde is rightly considered a star.

By day, Le Comptoir is an extremely high quality bistro with some great natural wines by the glass. Food is served until five, but around lunchtime you will invariably have to queue for a table.

In the evening the bistro shuts and the tables are laid for a six course dinner. This is a set menu (with no alternative choices) at a fixed price of 45 Euros. It's also one of the most sought after meals in Paris. Book well in advance or hope for a cancellation.

Yves also owns the four-star hotel next door, The Relais Saint-Germain, and staying there guarantees you a table.

Open every day.
