Les Mauvaises Herbes

Vegetarian restaurant · 1st Arr.

"French cuisine is pretty faithfully lard-spiked and vegetarian-unfriendly, so Les Mauvaises Herbes was served a little side-eye when it opened in 2018. But it won over both plant-based folks and open-minded meat eaters with fancy dishes that are more affordable than most fine-dining places around town. The airy, split-level space feels rustic, with a little corner of couches upstairs and plants spilling from the railing over the downstairs area. We love dishes like zucchini and pomelo ceviche, romaine leaf tacos with candied lemon tabouleh, and papas arrugadas, or wrinkly potatoes, in a herby green sauce." - sophie friedman
