Schwartz's, American restaurant in 4th arrondissement, Paris, France.
Schwartz's is an American deli-style restaurant in the 4th arrondissement of Paris, specializing in smoked meats, sandwiches, and hotdogs. The menu draws from North American deli traditions and offers both classic preparations and more creative combinations.
The restaurant was opened with the intention of bringing the deli food culture of Montreal to Paris, at a time when that style of cooking was largely unknown in the city. It was part of a broader wave of North American food concepts arriving in central Paris.
The name Schwartz's comes from a famous Jewish deli in Montreal, giving this Paris spot a North American deli identity that goes beyond typical American burger joints. The smoked meat sandwiches and pickle sides on the menu reflect that specific tradition, which is rare to find in the city.
The restaurant is in the Marais neighborhood, which is easy to reach on foot or by metro from many parts of the city. The space is not very large, so arriving early or outside peak meal times helps avoid waiting.
The original Schwartz's in Montreal has been open since the 1920s and is widely regarded as one of the most famous smoked meat sandwich spots in North America. The Paris location carries that reference in its name, even though it operates thousands of miles from the source.
