Restaurant Cléo

Cléo stands out in the 7th arrondissement for its commitment to precise, contemporary French gastronomy under the lead of chef Alexandre Semperé, whose background includes formative experiences with Christian Constant, Alain Ducasse, and Les Ombres. The menu here balances meticulously sourced products, with a noted emphasis on marine and plant-based ingredients, alongside carefully structured sauces—a signature of Semperé’s style.

Lunch offers a concise, seasonal à la carte selection while dinner gives way to five- or seven-course tasting menus, also available in a plant-focused option. Housed in the Narcisse Blanc Hôtel & Spa, Cléo is complemented by the Belle Époque-inspired Bar Léopold and a leafy terrace. Cocktails and mocktails are crafted in-house, following the kitchen’s attention to detail and clarity of flavor. This address near the Invalides draws diners seeking sincerity, seasonality, and the chef’s nuanced approach between tradition and innovation.
