Distrito Francés

Mexican cuisine has won the hearts of many Parisians, with Mexican restaurants sprouting up like cacti in the desert. Another 2015 newcomer is Distrito Francés, which sprouted near the start of the popular Rue du Faubourg Saint-Martin. Inside is a completely different world, with warm wood, plants, pink and blue walls and a stairway lined with Mexican ceramics. You may select between many areas at this upscale taqueria (taco house), including a large communal table with wooden benches, a side room ideal for tête-à-têtes and an azure-painted room upstairs with sofas for relaxing out. There are also a few spots on an outside patio but the street noise isn't ideal.

Cocktails are sold by the litre (about €20), bottled beers are around €7, South American wines are around €3-€6 per glass, and shots of Mezcal and Tequila are around €6-€9. If you're worried about overindulging, try a classic horchata which is a rice-based drink flavored with mint and hibiscus, or agave honey and lime (€4.50 a litre). From the traditional cochinita pibil tacos with pork grilled in banana leaf (€11 for three) to the more familiar guacamole with corn and cactus crisps (€7.60), the cuisine delivers. The waiters and waitresses at the restaurant are attentive.
