"Tucked between Boulevard Saint‑Germain and Quai de la Tournelle and less than a ten-minute stroll from Notre‑Dame, Alliance is a One-Star restaurant born of the partnership between wine aficionado Shawn Joyeux and Osaka‑born chef Toshitaka Omiya; the minimalist, Scandinavian‑inspired dining room centers on a large bay window framing the kitchen, where the team celebrates the beauty and simplicity of seasonal ingredients—Omiya having trained with gastronomic greats like Joël Robuchon, Alain Passard and Philippe Legendre." - Lane Nieset
