Join me as we explore the top Paris restaurants with a view of the Eiffel Tower, where every bite comes with a side of breathtaking scenery.
Paris is home to some remarkable restaurants that offer unforgettable vistas of this iconic landmark.
While many may think the best views are right next to the tower, there’s something truly special about dining for example in Montmartre and gazing at the Eiffel Tower from afar.
You’re lucky, one hidden gem we can’t wait to share is a charming restaurant nestled in Montmartre, where you can savor exquisite cuisine with a picture-perfect view of the Eiffel Tower in all its glory.
Let’s elevate our dining experience and soak in the magic of Paris from these incredible vantage points.
Here’s an overview:

Terrass Hotel Restaurant
Seafood is what the Terrass Hotel Restaurant with a view specializes in, and the tuna steak is my personal favorite.
They also have a delicious raw tower with a base of oysters – online reservations, English spoken, and a romantic view.
What more could you ask for?

Chez Francis
Be assured that Chez Francis is famous for its views, and they will charge you for them. Nonetheless, the quality is excellent.
Many places with a view rely on the view alone, but Francis relies on the food and then charges for the view.
This is where you celebrate an anniversary or another exceptional occasion. Everything is a la carte, so expect to pay about 100 per person.
Online reservations are available at Chez Francis.

6 New York
6 New York is an unusual name for a French restaurant, but do not let that dissuade you.
The view is up close, exceptional, and excellent food quality. The prices reflect the tower tax, but you save a bit by ordering the day’s dishes.
This is my favorite when guests come to town and need to see everything. In addition to the view of the tower, they are close to many of the places that guests visiting Paris want to see.

Monsieur Bleu
Monsieur Bleu Reservations are Mandatory, and brunch is the best value here, with some exceptional and interesting dishes.
Dinner without wine can cost as much as 300 a person, so be prepared.

You may notice this is a very short list. As a chef and a lover of good food, I will not recommend a tourist rip-off, no matter how good the view is.
Of course, there are others I have not tried. You can find much longer lists, but with these suggestions, I can tell you the food quality is excellent.
And you can join me on one of my food tours, where we can immerse ourselves even more in the Parisian food scene.
