There are plenty of new restaurants opening in Paris in 2025, to suit all tastes, budgets and tastes. While the new Asian restaurants will certainly be there, gourmets will also be able to rub shoulders with Sri Lankan, Jamaican and Lebanese flavors, climb to seventh heaven at the table of a very (very) high restaurant, or curl up in the comfort of traditional but well-executed French cuisine.
But 2025 is also an opportunity for top chefs to finally open their first restaurant in the capital. In the past, they have demonstrated the breadth and grandeur of their culinary skills during residencies here and there, as well as in the kitchens of well-established establishments in the City of Light - sometimes earning stars in the process. Some of these chefs have also caused a sensation abroad, and are now finally coming to Paris!
This new culinary year is an opportunity for some to launch themselves as chef-owners, and give free rein to their imagination. These new addresses promise to be particularly tasty. Discover these 7 renowned chefs who are finally opening their first restaurant in Paris!
