Le Bilboquet/Club St-Germain

This restaurant/jazz club/piano bar, where the film Paris Blues was shot, offers some of the best music in Paris. Jazz is played on the upper level in the restaurant, Le Bilboquet, a wood-paneled room with a copper ceiling, brass-trimmed and red-painted sunken bar, and Victorian candelabra. The menu is limited but classic French, specializing in lamb, fish, and beef. Dinner is 55€. Under separate management is the downstairs Club St-Germain disco, where entrance is free but drinks cost 8€ to 15€.
