Bistrot Pomelo is the new venture of cousins Nicolas and Alexis, already well known on the Parisian gastronomic scene with their previous establishments such as Café d'Italie, Chez Bartolo and I Grappoli. Here, their passion for Italian cuisine finds a new expression, extended to delights from all over the Mediterranean.

At Pomelo, every moment of the day is an invitation to share and discover, in a place where conviviality and epicureanism are king. The rich, inventive cocktail menu is also a great start to evenings with friends, which often continue with small plates to share and pizzetas. At lunchtime, take advantage of our €16.50 lunch menu!

Right from the start, the Vitello Tonnato captivates with its skilfully measured sauce, which delicately coats the slices of veal. A fine way to start. The salmon ceviche, fresh and well-seasoned, continues the positive trend.

The dishes don't disappoint either. The Polpete with homemade beef meatballs is tasty. A good point for the house. The barbecued octopus is a success, with tender flesh at the core and a light crispness on the surface. Accompanied by sun-drenched vegetables, it's a real treat.
