The Salle Pompadour at Le Meurice is the most theatrical fine-dining room in central Paris, Versailles-grade gilt, crystal chandeliers, full-height windows onto the rue de Rivoli arcade and the Tuileries beyond. Alain Ducasse oversees with executive chef Amaury Bouhours running a haute French menu built on cooked-and-raw vegetable plates and precise fish work. Cédric Grolet's pastry team handles dessert, which means the trompe-l'oeil fruits you've seen on Instagram arrive trolley-side. Three Écotable macarons signal the seriousness of the sourcing. Book lunch for the daylight on the gilding.

Editor's Tip

Lunch tasting is roughly half the dinner price for the same room and same kitchen. Request a window table facing the Tuileries.
