The Best French Restaurants In St Petersburg

Valeria Nikonova
Updated:
Russia’s northern capital has long-established connections with France, so it is no wonder that St Petersburg‘s culinary scene dazzles with restaurants devoted entirely to French gastronomy. We’ve picked the best French and French-fusion dining spots in St Petersburg to try while you’re here.

Gastronomic Cantina Jerome

Cantina Jerome is located in the heart of St Petersburg, two minutes walk from St Isaac’s Square. Jerome’s menu offers classic French dishes and Italian pizzas and pastas. It is compiled of the biggest hits of both French and Italian cuisines: pizza, pasta, risotto, antipasti with smoked chicken, speciality burgers and onion soup. The interior of Jerome is quite unique, featuring black walls painted with images of owls and other forest creatures, high ceilings, bright red leather sofas, huge wooden tables and a transparent showcase with homemade baked goods.

Philibert Restaurant

Philibert has earned a reputation as a hospitable café, not only because of its friendly service, but also because of the interior: panoramic windows, furniture made of light wood, wrought iron framed mirrors, white shelves and authentic chandeliers refer to classic interiors of French houses in Provence. The menu echoes the Provençal mood of the restaurant, with options such as onion soup, salad Nicoise and frog legs, stewed in a citrus sauce.
