About MOJO
MOJO is a practical weekday choice in Paris's 17th, stronger for convenience than for a high-stakes dining plan. Choose it for an easy lunch or dinner near the Arc de Triomphe side of the city; cross-shop Caïus or La Scène Thélème if cuisine style, price tier, occasion value matter more.
MOJO is a weekday Paris option, open Monday to Friday for lunch and dinner and closed on weekends. That makes the schedule the clearest planning point: consider it for a Monday-to-Friday meal, not a Saturday or Sunday plan. The safer verdict is to treat it as a practical Paris choice based on confirmed hours and dress code rather than as a venue defined by unverified details. If the goal is to compare it with other named options, look at Caïus and La Scène Thélème before committing.
A practical Paris pick, not a trophy table
The reason to choose MOJO is schedule fit. It is open Monday to Friday from 12–2 PM and 7–10 PM, with Saturday and Sunday closed, so the decision should stay simple: choose it when a weekday lunch or dinner in Paris matches your plan. There is not enough verified detail to sell it on chef pedigree, a named drinks program, awards, pricing, or a specific menu format.
For drinks-focused diners, keep expectations measured. The available facts do not identify a cocktail list, wine focus, bar seating, or signature serve, so this should not be treated as a bar-program-first pick. If the evening is built around cocktails, use Paris bars guide alongside the restaurant search. If the evening is built around dinner in Paris, start with the full Paris restaurants guide and narrow from there.
Who should choose it, who should cross-shop
MOJO makes the strongest case when its weekday lunch and dinner hours fit your itinerary. It is harder to frame as a milestone-dinner choice from the verified facts alone, because there are no confirmed awards, price signals, tasting-menu details, or service-format details to support that kind of decision. For another option to compare, Caïus is a natural cross-check. La Scène Thélème is also worth considering when you want another named point of comparison.
If this is part of wider Paris planning, research can branch by need rather than forcing one venue to do everything: Paris hotels for where to stay, other Paris experiences for the rest of the day, broader Paris dining research if food is the main lens. Restaurant cross-checks can also include Caïus, Figuig, LE HIDE, La Scène Thélème, Leriche, MOJO.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is lunch or dinner better at MOJO?
MOJO serves both lunch and dinner Monday through Friday: 12–2 PM and 7–10 PM. Lunch works if you want a weekday midday meal, while dinner works for a weekday evening plan. The key limitation is the schedule: MOJO is closed Saturday and Sunday.
Does MOJO handle dietary restrictions?
There is no verified venue-specific dietary policy listed for MOJO, so the practical move is to ask before you go if you need a strict accommodation. Weekday service runs through lunch and dinner. If your restriction is non-negotiable, choose a place that confirms it in advance.

How MOJO compares in Paris
MOJO is the easiest recommendation when the priority is a low-admin weekday meal in the 17th. Against LE HIDE, Figuig, Leriche, the useful distinction is not price or awards, since those details are not defined here; it is simplicity. Pick MOJO when location and booking ease matter more than a tightly specified restaurant style.
Caïus is the more decisive choice for diners who want a clearer creative-cuisine brief at €€. It gives the meal more shape on paper, which makes it a better fit for visitors trying to choose one dinner rather than fill an open slot. La Scène Thélème is the stronger splurge cross-shop: modern cuisine, €€€, and better suited to a planned occasion than a casual weekday fallback.
If the plan is flexible, MOJO is the pragmatic pick; if the plan needs a more defined dining identity, start with Caïus or La Scène Thélème. LE HIDE, Figuig, Leriche remain sensible alternates to check when geography or availability drives the decision.
