Michelin-recognised Greek dining for the 16th
Osmossi — Maison Mavrommatis holds Michelin Plate recognition for 2024 and 2025, making it Paris's most formally credentialed Greek dining address. At the €€ price point, it suits a special occasion or business dinner in the 16th arrondissement without the commitment of a four-symbol evening. Book ahead; the room is better for pairs and small groups than walk-in visits.
Picture the 16th arrondissement on a weekday evening: the Avenue Paul Doumer is unhurried, the buildings are substantial, and the kind of restaurant that earns a Michelin Plate two years running tends to sit quietly on a first floor, away from tourist circuits. That is exactly where Osmossi — Maison Mavrommatis positions itself, and the positioning is deliberate. This is serious Greek cooking in a Paris neighbourhood that respects serious restaurants. If you are planning a special occasion dinner and want something off the Franco-centric path, book it. If you are looking for casual meze at bistro prices, go elsewhere.
Arriving at the first-floor address on Avenue Paul Doumer, the visual register is immediately that of a formal dining room rather than a taverna. The Mavrommatis name carries decades of Greek culinary credibility in Paris , the broader Mavrommatis restaurant is well established in the city's Greek dining conversation , and Osmossi reads as its most considered expression. The room signals occasion: this is where you bring a partner for an anniversary, a client for a business dinner, or a small group of guests who appreciate cooking that takes a cuisine seriously. For comparison, the more casual Greek end of the Paris spectrum sits with venues like Etsi, L'Ouzeri, and Les Délices d'Aphrodite , all worthwhile, but occupying a very different register to what Osmossi is doing.
The Michelin Plate recognition in both 2024 and 2025 tells you something specific: this is a venue where the cooking meets a standard of consistency that Michelin's inspectors returned to confirm. At the €€ price point, Osmossi sits in a middle tier , not the splurge of a four-symbol Parisian institution, but meaningfully above a neighbourhood Greek spot. The question for a special occasion diner is whether the service style matches that positioning.
Greek hospitality, at its leading in a fine dining context, combines warmth with precision , it does not default to the formal distance of classical French service, nor does it slip into the informality that can undermine a celebration dinner. A Michelin Plate venue in the 16th is expected to deliver the latter without sacrificing the former. The two consecutive recognitions suggest the kitchen is consistent; a 4.8 Google rating across 15 reviews, while a small sample, points toward a room where guests leave satisfied rather than disappointed. For a date or anniversary dinner, that reliability matters more than a single exceptional visit followed by inconsistency.
At €€, the price-to-occasion ratio is accessible compared to the €€€€ tier that dominates Paris's most celebrated tables. You are not paying for the theatre of a tasting menu at Alléno Paris au Pavillon Ledoyen, but you are getting a Michelin-acknowledged kitchen in a room that suits a proper dinner. For groups celebrating something, that gap between €€ and €€€€ is worth noting: Osmossi gives you a credentialed occasion without the financial commitment of Paris's top tier.
The 16th arrondissement operates on a different rhythm to the Marais or Saint-Germain. Midweek evenings here tend to be quieter than weekend services, which makes Tuesday through Thursday the better choice if you want attentive service without the pressure of a full room. For a business meal, a weekday lunch is worth considering , the neighbourhood suits it, and the format of a first-floor restaurant lends itself to that kind of meeting. Weekend evenings suit a celebration dinner, but booking ahead is the sensible move for any Friday or Saturday visit.
Paris's Greek dining scene is genuinely thin at the formal end of the market. If Osmossi's calendar does not suit, the alternatives at this quality level in the city are limited. London has built a stronger roster of serious Greek restaurants in recent years , OMA and AGORA are the benchmark references there , but in Paris, Osmossi and the wider Mavrommatis family hold the ground almost by default. That scarcity adds a practical reason to book when the occasion arises.
Book Osmossi if you are planning a celebration dinner or a business meal in the 16th and want a Michelin-recognised kitchen that is not French. The €€ price point makes it approachable for a two-person occasion without the commitment of a full tasting menu evening. It is the right call if the person across the table appreciates cooking that sits outside the French canon, or if you have exhausted the conventional Paris dinner circuit and want something with genuine culinary identity behind it.
Do not book if you need a large group table and cannot confirm capacity in advance, or if you are looking for the high-low energy of a lively Greek taverna.

For context on what Michelin recognition means across France's broader dining map, the range runs from village institutions like Auberge de l'Ill in Illhaeusern and Bras in Laguiole to multi-star destinations such as Flocons de Sel in Megève, Troisgros in Ouches, Mirazur in Menton, Paul Bocuse in Collonges-au-Mont-d'Or, and the long-standing Paris benchmark of Pierre Gagnaire. A Michelin Plate is the entry point of that recognition system , it marks a kitchen worth taking seriously, not one that has merely avoided notice.
It is a first-floor formal Greek restaurant in the 16th arrondissement, connected to the well-established Mavrommatis family of restaurants in Paris. Expect a sit-down occasion rather than a casual meal. The Michelin Plate recognition in 2024 and 2025 confirms the cooking is consistent, and the €€ price range makes it accessible for a special dinner without requiring a full fine-dining budget. Book ahead rather than walking in, particularly for weekends.
At €€, yes , particularly for a special occasion where you want Michelin-acknowledged Greek cooking in a proper dining room. You are not paying €€€€ prices, so the value calculation is different from Paris's top-tier tables. Two consecutive Michelin Plate recognitions confirm the kitchen delivers reliably at that price. For casual Greek eating at lower spend, Les Délices d'Aphrodite or Etsi are the practical alternatives.
Specific menu items are not confirmed in our current data. Given the Michelin Plate recognition and the Greek cuisine focus, the kitchen's strengths are likely in dishes that reflect the Mavrommatis family's long-standing culinary identity. Contact the restaurant directly for current menu details before your visit, particularly if you have dietary requirements or preferences.
Group capacity is not confirmed in our data. The first-floor setting suggests a dedicated dining room rather than an open-plan space, which may support private or semi-private arrangements. For groups of four or more, contact the restaurant in advance to confirm seating. At €€ per head, the spend is manageable for a group occasion compared to the €€€€ venues in the comparison set.
No specific dietary accommodation policy is available in our current data. Greek cuisine by its nature includes a range of seafood, meat, and vegetable-forward dishes, which can be adaptable, but confirm your requirements directly with the restaurant before booking. Phone and website details are not confirmed in our data , approach via your reservation channel.
The formal first-floor setting is better suited to pairs or small groups than solo visits, particularly given the special occasion register the room occupies. That said, a solo business lunch in the 16th is a reasonable use case if you want a credentialed table without the energy of a busier neighbourhood. At €€, the solo spend is not punishing. For a lower-key solo Greek meal in Paris, L'Ouzeri is the more relaxed alternative.

A quick look at how Osmossi - Maison Mavrommatis measures up.
This is a first-floor, formal dining room on Avenue Paul Doumer in the 16th arrondissement — not a casual taverna. The Michelin Plate in both 2024 and 2025 confirms consistent kitchen standards, so expectations should be set accordingly. Come for a considered meal rather than a relaxed drop-in, and note the €€ price range means it sits comfortably between neighbourhood bistro and full Michelin-starred spend. Booking ahead is the sensible move, particularly for weekend services.
At €€, Osmossi offers a Michelin Plate-recognised Greek kitchen at a price point well below the neighbourhood's French fine-dining alternatives. If you want Michelin-level consistency without the full tasting-menu commitment of somewhere like Le Cinq, this works well. The value case is strongest for a celebration or business dinner where you need a credentialled room without three-star pricing. If you are looking purely for value-for-money Greek food in Paris, the 16th is not the obvious base.
Specific menu details are not available in Pearl's current data for this venue. What the Michelin Plate recognition does confirm is that the kitchen meets a standard of technical consistency across its Greek-cuisine offer. check the venue's official channels or check their current menu before visiting to confirm what is being served.
The first-floor setting on Avenue Paul Doumer suggests a formal dining room format, which typically suits smaller groups better than large parties. For groups of four or more, it is worth calling ahead to confirm table configuration and any private dining options, as details are not confirmed in Pearl's current data. Midweek evenings in the 16th tend to be quieter, giving larger bookings more flexibility than weekend services.
Specific dietary policy is not confirmed in Pearl's current data for this venue. Greek cuisine at this level generally accommodates pescatarian and vegetable-forward requirements with reasonable flexibility, but the kitchen's exact position on allergens and dietary substitutions should be confirmed directly when booking. Do not assume — contact the restaurant before your visit.
A formal first-floor dining room in the 16th is not the most natural solo format, but it is workable for a solo business meal or a deliberate treat-yourself occasion. At €€, the spend is manageable for one. If counter seating or a more social bar dynamic matters to you as a solo diner, this is probably not the right fit — but for a quiet, considered meal alone, the unhurried rhythm of the 16th arrondissement works in your favour.
Keep this venue in your Pearl passport, rate it after you visit, and track it alongside every other place you collect.
