"This inconspicuous, multi-room restaurant is located on a narrow side street in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés. In other words, you’d walk right by it if you didn’t know to stop. Inside, two things are happening here that you won’t often find at other nice-but-casual restaurants around town: servers will refill your water glass and fold your napkin when you’re in the bathroom, and there’s the option to pick between an a la carte or full tasting menu. If you’ve got the time, go for the tasting to sample the best of the chef’s seasonal hits, like an onion soup topped with Jerusalem artichoke or the excellent butternut squash ice cream with chestnut cream for dessert." - sara lieberman, lindsey tramuta

"In one of the most bookish streets of the scholarly St André des Arts neighbourhood, Oktobre is warm and welcoming, like an Indian summer. The chef's pantry is stocked with only the finest, painstakingly sourced produce (he buys some animals whole). He takes a fresh, delicate, natural approach to cooking, deftly seasoning his dishes with varied spices and Asian accents. “Dentelles de Cucugnan” cuttlefish pasta with a shellfish bisque; Dombes quail, buckwheat risotto with mushrooms, fig and gochujang pickles; figs topped with a shiso-scented diplomat cream…" - Michelin Inspector

"Young chef Martin Maumet has created one of the best restaurants on the Left Bank with his nervy, vivid, and inventive French cooking. A meal in the minimalist, gallery-like space begins with an assortment of hors d’oeuvres and then segues into a suite of Asian-accented contemporary French dishes that showcase vegetables and seafood. The menu evolves constantly, but options might include Sardinian gnocchi with mussels in herb-garnished shellfish bouillon, free-range heirloom chicken with carrots, and Iberian pork with roasted root vegetables and chimichurri sauce. Desserts are often made with vegetables, as in the butternut squash ice cream with chestnuts, pistachios, and yuzu. Located in the Sixth Arrondissement." - Alexander Lobrano

January 2, 2025, dinner was booked at Oktober, a restaurant near where we were staying. This place features French cuisine with an Asian twist. We opted for the dinner tasting menu with wine pairings, which included six courses—appetizers, mains, and dessert—accompanied by five different wines. Every dish was incredibly creative, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious. You could really feel the thought and effort the chef put into crafting each flavor, as well as their skill in conveying these flavors to diners through the dishes. The wine pairings included three French white wines, an Argentinian red wine, and a dessert wine to complement the dessert. The service was also excellent—warm and friendly, which was a significant plus.

Food was absolutely incredible and some of the best food we had over 10 nights in Paris, Reims, and Amsterdam. Service left a lot to be desired though. I would expect more for a higher end tasting menu experience!

French cuisine with Asian inspired. It was very sensitive delicate food. Asian people must like it as well as European people! For Asian, it can be kind of modern Asian food, for European, it can be modern French cuisine but a bit of taste of Asia. Very good modern French cuisine !

So good I came back again within 3 days. One of the best meals I had in Paris. The lunch menu is reasonable for the quality and service. Must visit.

A truly unforgettable dining experience- the best we’ve had in Paris. The food was the focus, with a playful and ambitious tasting menu that was equally stimulating and delicious (and was tailored to meet dietary restrictions without judgement or concern). Wines on offer were curated beautifully, and converted a surprising spectrum of price and style. The service was impeccable, offering the right blend of formality and personality. We can’t wait to come back.

The food, atmosphere and service were all top notch. The food, especially, was superb. My wife and I chose the tasting menu and every course was divine. Creative flavors, beautiful presentation and truly delicious cuisine.

The tasting menu was excellent, with a very fine trio of mostly vegetarian appetizers. Very much in the spirit of melding French and Asian cuisine, the dishes were light and inventive. Two complaints. The wine pairing was excellent but the pours were rather small. The seating was uncomfortable particularly for a two hour tasting menu. Most everything is available a la carte and I would recommend going that route.

We went during a midweek and had the lunch menu. The 3-piece starter was delicious, as were the main courses. The service was attentive and the price quite reasonable for what we had. We will be back to try the tasting menu.
