Things to do in Paris, Ile-de-France: The Best Dinner Theaters
Lingering over pain au chocolat in a sidewalk café, relaxing after a day of strolling along the Seine and marveling at icons like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe… the perfect Paris experience combines leisure and liveliness with enough time to savor both an exquisite meal and exhibits at the Louvre. Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

The Nouvelle Eve is a hidden gem in the heart of the theatre district of Paris. Step off the busy street and you will be transported through the luscious and intimate foyer into a world of exciting entertainment. As the friendly staff show you to your table, the space and comfort of the interior becomes obvious. With a plush seat having plenty of room and a great view of the stage, the velvet curtains are a magnet for the eyes as the anticipation grows. A generous glassful of tasty champagne is offered and the happy crowd begins to settle. On my various trips to Paris I have been to other, perhaps more famously known theatre restaurants, but of all those encounters, the food, service and comfort at the Nouvelle Eve is by far and away the best I have experienced. The stage might be less imposing, the show not quite as lavish as the others but the dazzling beauty and talent of the dancers, singers, comedians and artists will hypnotise you none the less. On my last visit to the "Eve" I was lucky enough to score a seat right next to the stage. At the end of one of the fantastic dance numbers amid a swirl of flouncing skirts, bloomers and impossibly long legs, I fell in love with the Can-Can girls of the Nouvelle Eve. On my next visit to Paris I shall walk along Rue Pierre Fontaine and reminisce about my close encounter with the Can-Can. And I doubt I will be able to to resist the temptation of the "Eve".

We wanted to watch a drag show whilst in Paris for my 40th Birthday celebrations. The Artishow Cabaret was recommended by a local and it didn't disappoint. We had a wonderful time. We went to the lunchtime show (déjeuner spectacle) on 28th February. Included in the price was a cocktail on arrival, a 4-course meal, wine and coffee at the end - fantastic value at €69 pp! We booked direct through their website in advance. We got there just before 1pm (a little late), and we were greeted warmly by the artists and shown to our seats. We were the only English people there and we were made to feel very, very welcome by staff and clientele alike. We all got by with my broken French and their very good English. I like that the drag artists also serve you the meal so you can build up a rapport and have a laugh with them. They even sang me Happy Birthday in French and gave me a candle with my dessert. The show itself was a mix of famous French and English-speaking artists - a really good mix of comedy drag and excellent female and male impersonations and lip syncing. Overall, a very professional production with great choreography. We bought a photo with the awesome Fénix and all the artists were happy to sign it at the end - what a lovely memento :-) If you are in Paris, want a fab traditional meal and to be truly entertained, I can't think of a better way to spend 4 hours :-) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I absolutely love the Moulin Rouge - I would go every day if I could. This was the second time we had been. We booked a meal and had good seats at the front. The meal was perfectly OK and the Laurent Perrier most acceptable. We were right in front of the stage and it was wonderful to be so close to the performers. The show was stunning and absolutely beautiful with great singing and dancing and gorgeous costumes. The extra acts were spectacular with an amazing roller skating act ( where I wished I was further away from the stage), an eye watering contortionist and a truly spectacular acrobatic duo. It was a fantastic evening and I would highly recommend going.
