Quai 245

Quai 245 is a waterfront brasserie with an eclectic menu that mixes classic French dishes — think duck confit parmentier and beef daube — with Southern Italian influences and even Japanese-inspired tuna yakitori. The vibe is relaxed and welcoming, and the staff get consistently good marks for making you feel at home. Prices are mid-range, so you won't wince at the bill.
