The Best Restaurants In Montmartre - Paris - The Infatuation

"If you want to start a night out on the right foot, head to Adraba, where more is more. The dining room at this Israeli restaurant is governed by a clubby playlist and low lighting, but you can just about read the menu. Dishes range from finger food like super good kale croquettes with schug and yogurt sauce to larger mains like juicy lamb kefte studded with pine nuts. While you certainly can order à la carte, the move here is to take advantage of the generous table space, and split as many dishes as possible. Ignore the expensive, disappointing wine list and order a house cocktail instead." - emily monaco

"The team at the helm of this trendy restaurant with an upbeat atmosphere is a group of friends headed up by Israeli chef Elior Benaroche, once sous-chef at Balagan and an associate of Assaf Granit since his early days in the heart of Jerusalem's Old City. Tapping into the Levant and the chef's family history, this cuisine is a festival of spices and condiments: hilbeh (fenugreek paste), ezme (Turkish salad of charcoal-roasted vegetables), tahini, zaatar, harif (marinated chillis), tulum (Turkish cheese) – rounded off by a fine cocktail menu. A culinary voyage." - Michelin Inspector

Where to Eat In Paris Right Now - Paris - The Infatuation

"Adraba, a new Levantine spot from a former manager at Balagan, is a good time—plain and simple. You’l find it on a quiet corner behind busy rue des Abbesses in Montmartre, and it’s perfect for the start of your Friday night or a long, leisurely, fun Sunday brunch. The music’s loud but not too loud, the service is attentive even when it’s busy, and free shots are circulated throughout the meal (they’re mixed, and mostly fruit juice, so don’t worry: Your kefta won’t land on your lap because of tipsy waitstaff). Get an extra order of the piping hot flatbread so you can sop up the full “Everything on the Table” portion of the meal: eight mezze for €36. On your way out, give a few pets to the dogs you’ll see lazing about as their owners go to town on some kebabs." - Sara Lieberman
