Restaurant in Paris, France
Michelin-noted organic dining, low booking pressure.
A Michelin Plate address two years running (2024 and 2025), La Table du Caviste Bio brings organic sourcing and a wine-merchant sensibility to the 17th arrondissement at €€ prices. With a 4.7 Google rating across 617 reviews and easy booking, it's one of the more reliable options in Paris for food-focused travellers who want to eat well repeatedly without a special-occasion budget.
Yes, and particularly so if your Paris budget is tight but your standards aren't. La Table du Caviste Bio, at 55 Rue de Prony in the 17th arrondissement, holds a Michelin Plate for both 2024 and 2025 and carries a 4.7 Google rating across 617 reviews — a combination that puts it in a reliable tier of Paris dining that doesn't require a special-occasion budget. At the €€ price point, it delivers recognisable Michelin-level attention to sourcing and cooking without the €€€€ commitment you'd face at the grand addresses across the city. For food-focused travellers who want to eat well across several nights rather than spend everything on one table, this is the kind of address that makes a Paris trip work.
The name tells you the operating philosophy before you've seen a menu: caviste means wine merchant or wine specialist, and bio signals an organic orientation. This is a restaurant built around considered sourcing, where the wine list and the kitchen likely operate from the same set of values. Modern Cuisine as a category covers a wide range of cooking in Paris, but here the framing points toward something ingredient-led and relatively restrained rather than technically elaborate or classically sauced. The 17th arrondissement is a residential neighbourhood, less trafficked by tourists than the Left Bank or the Marais, which tends to mean the room runs on a local clientele — a reliable indicator that a restaurant is earning repeat visits rather than one-time tourist spend.
For a first visit, the practical entry point is direct: this is €€ pricing in a Michelin-recognised room, which in Paris typically means you're eating at a level that comfortably outperforms its price. Booking is easy relative to the city's more competitive tables, so there's no need to plan weeks in advance. That accessibility is part of what makes a multi-visit strategy sensible here. Rather than treating it as a single tick-box dinner, the organic and wine-forward identity of the place rewards returning with different intentions: once to follow the wine programme closely, once to work through the food menu more deliberately, and potentially a third time if the format runs to seasonal changes in what's on the plate.
On a second visit, the wine dimension becomes more interesting. A caviste-led restaurant in Paris at this price tier is likely running a list with genuine depth and a point of view , wines selected to complement an organic kitchen rather than to impress with trophy bottles. That's a different kind of list to explore than what you'd find at a grand brasserie or a palace hotel dining room, and it rewards the kind of attention that a first-timer, still orienting to the room, can't fully give. If organic and natural wine production interests you , and it has become one of the more substantive developments in French restaurant culture over the past decade , this address is one of the more accessible entry points in Paris at this price level.
By a third visit, you're in a position to test consistency, which is the most meaningful credential any restaurant can earn. A 4.7 across 617 reviews suggests the kitchen is doing that reliably. Consistency at €€ pricing, with Michelin recognition two years running, is a stronger signal of a well-run operation than a single glowing review.
For context on what this address sits alongside in France's broader dining culture: the country has produced some of the most referenced restaurants in the world, from [Mirazur in Menton](https://www.joinpearl.co/restaurants/mirazur-menton-restaurant) and [Troisgros - Le Bois sans Feuilles in Ouches](https://www.joinpearl.co/restaurants/troisgros-le-bois-sans-feuilles-ouches-restaurant) to [Bras in Laguiole](https://www.joinpearl.co/restaurants/bras-laguiole-restaurant) and [Auberge de l'Ill in Illhaeusern](https://www.joinpearl.co/restaurants/auberge-de-lill-illhaeusern-restaurant). La Table du Caviste Bio is not competing in that tier, nor is it trying to. It is competing for the repeat dinner in a neighbourhood that has good options, and by the evidence of its ratings and dual-year Michelin recognition, it is winning that competition. That's the relevant comparison set for a €€ address in the 17th.
In Paris specifically, the €€ Michelin Plate category is well-populated. Addresses like [Accents Table Bourse](https://www.joinpearl.co/restaurants/accents-table-bourse-paris-restaurant), [Anona](https://www.joinpearl.co/restaurants/anona-paris-restaurant), and [Amâlia](https://www.joinpearl.co/restaurants/amlia-paris-restaurant) occupy similar ground across different neighbourhoods and styles. What separates La Table du Caviste Bio is the explicit organic and wine-merchant identity, which gives it a distinct character within that category rather than being simply another solid modern bistro. If that framing connects with what you're looking for, it moves from a good option to the right option for your trip.
Practically, the 17th arrondissement location at 55 Rue de Prony places it in a part of Paris that is well-connected by Metro but not on most visitors' natural circuit. That's a minor logistical point but worth noting when planning: this isn't a venue you'll pass on the way to somewhere else. You're making a specific trip, which means you want to be confident it's worth the detour. On the evidence available , Michelin Plate two years running, 4.7 on 617 reviews, accessible pricing, and a wine-forward identity that gives the room a reason to exist beyond generic modern cooking , it is.

Booking difficulty is low. La Table du Caviste Bio does not require the advance planning that Paris's more competitive tables demand. For most visit windows, booking a few days ahead should be sufficient, though for weekend evenings it's sensible to secure your table earlier in the week. The €€ price range means this works as a weeknight dinner without financial pressure, and as a repeat destination across a longer stay. No specific dress code data is available, but at this price point and neighbourhood setting, smart casual is the appropriate baseline for Paris dining.
The organic sourcing and wine-focused identity are the defining features , this isn't a generic modern bistro. At €€ pricing with Michelin Plate recognition in both 2024 and 2025, you're getting a kitchen that takes its brief seriously without requiring a splurge. First-timers should pay attention to the wine list, which is likely the most distinctive element of the experience. The 17th arrondissement location means making a deliberate trip rather than dropping in; that commitment is worth it given the 4.7 rating across 617 reviews.
Specific menu data isn't available, so we can't steer you toward particular dishes. What the organic and caviste framing suggests is that seasonal, ingredient-led plates are the kitchen's focus rather than elaborate technique. Follow the waiter's recommendation on the day, and let the wine list guide you , in a caviste-led room, the pairing suggestions are usually the most direct route to the kitchen's leading work.
Yes. At €€ pricing with an organic, wine-forward identity and a neighbourhood restaurant atmosphere, solo dining works well here. Paris's caviste-style addresses tend to be counter or small-table formats that are comfortable for a single diner, and the local clientele in the 17th makes for a more relaxed room than tourist-heavy addresses closer to the centre. It's a better solo option than a grand brasserie, where solo covers can feel conspicuous.
No formal dress code is recorded for this address. In Paris, a €€ neighbourhood restaurant with Michelin Plate recognition typically expects smart casual: put-together but not formal. A jacket is not required. The organic and wine-merchant identity of the place suggests a room that leans relaxed rather than ceremonial, so dress to feel comfortable rather than to impress.
No specific bar-seating data is available. In Paris restaurants with a caviste identity, bar or counter seating is sometimes available and can actually be the preferred position for wine-focused diners who want to interact with whoever is running the floor. It's worth asking when you book or on arrival. If bar seating isn't an option, a solo table at this kind of address is not a compromise.

A quick look at how La Table du Caviste Bio measures up.
Yes. The relaxed, low-pressure booking environment at this Michelin Plate-recognised address makes it a practical solo choice — you're not fighting for a table or committing weeks in advance. The wine-merchant concept also lends itself to counter or compact seating formats that work well for one. If solo fine dining with competitive booking is your thing, places like Pierre Gagnaire demand more planning and a much higher spend; La Table du Caviste Bio is the easier and cheaper call.
The €€ price point and organic, caviste-led concept point toward relaxed rather than formal. A clean, put-together casual look fits the register — think well-dressed rather than black-tie. This is not a Four Seasons dining room; the atmosphere is neighbourhood-bistro-meets-wine-bar rather than grand Parisian palace.
The name signals the format: caviste means wine specialist, bio means organic, and the menu follows that philosophy. It holds a Michelin Plate for both 2024 and 2025, which means Michelin inspectors consider the cooking solid without awarding a star. At €€ pricing in Paris's 17th arrondissement, that recognition represents good value. Booking is not difficult, so you don't need to plan far ahead.
Specific dishes are not documented in the available venue record, so no menu items can be confirmed here. What the concept does make clear is that the wine list is central to the experience — given the caviste identity, pairing your food with the organic wine selection is the point of the visit rather than an afterthought.
Bar seating details are not confirmed in the venue record. Given the caviste concept — where wine selection is a core part of the offer — bar or counter dining would fit the format logically, but call ahead to confirm. The address is 55 Rue de Prony, 75017 Paris.
Keep this venue in your Pearl passport, rate it after you visit, and track it alongside every other place you collect.
