Bona Ventura

7th arr. (Gros-Caillou) · Paris

Auberge Bressane

Local cuisineLocals' pick

A provincial inn near the Invalides, open since 1946, with neo-medieval wood panelling and old maps, one of the last places in Paris for cuisine bourgeoise, and full of neighbourhood regulars despite the Eiffel Tower nearby. Order the Comté soufflé, the crayfish gratin or the pike quenelle with Nantua sauce, and a Grand Marnier soufflé to finish.
