La Mascotte

$-$$, Brasserie, Montmartre


Fodor's Review:

Brasserie

La Mascotte. Though everyone talks about the "new Montmartre," exemplified by a wave of chic residents and throbbingly cool cafés and bars, it's good to know that the old Montmartre is alive and well at the untrendy-and-proud-of-it Mascotte. This old-fashioned café-brasserie -- which dates from 1889, the same year that saw the opening of the Eiffel Tower and the Moulin Rouge -- is where you can find neighborhood fixtures such as the drag queen Michou (of the nearby club Chez Michou), who always wears blue. Loyalists come for the seafood platters, the excellent steak tartare, and the gossip around the comptoir (the bar) up front.
