The story
For over twenty years, Annie and Sébastien Reumaux have run Le Beaujolais in Belleville, a restaurant that has become a local institution. Their philosophy is built on authenticity, quality, and conviviality – values that shine through in every dish.
Sébastien, originally from the north of France, trained under several great chefs before settling in the Beaujolais region. His cooking is described as simple, sincere, and generous, focused on fresh, seasonal ingredients. The menu changes with the seasons, offering straightforward yet deeply satisfying dishes that “smell good” and “make you happy.”
Annie, his wife and a native of Beaujolais, welcomes guests with a natural smile and genuine warmth. The atmosphere is elegant and comfortable, with a hostess who is attentive to every detail.
Le Beaujolais has been awarded a Bib Gourmand by the Michelin Guide for 22 consecutive years, including the 2026 edition. This recognition celebrates restaurants that offer good quality, good value cooking – a perfect match for the Reumaux’s commitment to honest, flavorful food. The restaurant appears in several other guides, including Gault-Millau and Le Petit Futé, but it is the Michelin Bib Gourmand that underscores its reliability and appeal.
Whether you visit for lunch or dinner, you can expect a menu that reflects the best of the region’s bounty, prepared without pretension and served with genuine hospitality. Le Beaujolais is a place where the joy of eating well comes first.
