Les Ondes, French restaurant in the 16th arrondissement, Paris, France
Les Ondes is a French restaurant in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, close to the Maison de la Radio and the Seine. It serves guests throughout the day, from early breakfast to late dinner, with a menu built around fresh, carefully chosen ingredients.
The restaurant has been part of its neighborhood for many years, establishing itself as a regular meeting point in a district long shaped by quiet, refined streets. The building still shows visible signs of its age, which gives the place a familiar feel.
Les Ondes sits close to the Maison de la Radio, and many guests stop in after a walk along the Seine. The terrace draws people in good weather, partly because of the view it offers toward the Eiffel Tower.
The restaurant is open every day, starting early on weekdays and a little later on weekends, staying open until late in the evening. Those who want a seat on the terrace are better off coming on a quiet weekday afternoon, when it tends to be less busy.
Les Ondes is known as a place where people come to propose, and the staff is used to helping make those moments work. The drinks list includes house-made spirits used in cocktails, something that is not immediately obvious when you first look at the menu.
