About
A Paris legend since 1947. Chez Omar's couscous royal — with lamb, merguez and chicken — is the benchmark by which all others are measured. The brasserie setting, with its white marble tables and Algerian-French warmth, is wholly unique.

AI Review Summary
Generated from guest reviews of Chez Omar
Chez Omar is beloved for its extraordinary couscous, which locals and tourists alike rank among the very best in Paris. The merguez are perfectly spiced, the broth is deeply flavourful and the portions are enormous. Service is brisk and friendly. The setting feels genuinely old Paris. An essential Marais address.

Best couscous in Paris, full stop. The merguez are incredible and the harissa will blow your head off (in the best way).

Go for the royal couscous — it's a mountain of food and all of it is delicious. A Paris institution.

Authentic, generous and affordable. The lamb shoulder is perfectly cooked. Always busy — book ahead.
