Vin et Marée 14ème

Why go there?

For Vin et Marée Montparnasse's elegant marine setting, its cosy blue velvet banquettes, its sailboat models and its menus written in chalk on big slate-boards.

For its seafood specialities, delivered every morning, its fine table-side service, and its daily choice of three fishes to share for two.

For its wide fish-tank from which are directly extracted lobsters and spiny lobsters.

For Vin et Marée's nice selection white wines, some of which are almost impossible to find in Paris.
