The food

Too often in Paris nowadays, you are left disappointed with what should matter more while eating at a restaurant : the food. Not such thing happens while eating at La Brasserie de l’Isle Saint-Louis : here, Jerome Kappe, one of the two brothers running the restaurant, makes sure only good, fresh and tasty products are served. Nothing frozen, and you really feel the difference from many other so called « brasseries » in your plate !

The location

The name says it all : La Brasserie de l’Isle Saint-Louis is located right in the middle of Paris, on the Ile Saint Louis. You will just have to tell your guest to meet you at the tip of the Île Saint-Louis, in front of Notre Dame de Paris 😉 If you are lucky enough on the warm and sunny days, you may even score a spot on the terrace, right in front of the River Seine. Ah, Paris !
