Beefbar

There are restaurant interiors. And then there is the 1900 dining room at Beefbar, an Art Nouveau glass-roofed space listed as a historic monument.

On Rue Marbeuf, the address has two histories. One belongs to La Fermette Marbeuf, opened in 1898, whose winter garden by architect Émile Hutré and ceramicist Jules Wielhorski was covered up, forgotten, then rediscovered in 1978 and listed in 1983. The other belongs to Riccardo Giraudi, who installed his temple to exceptional meat here in 2018, enhanced by architects Humbert and Poyet.

Kobe, wagyu, Black Angus

The menu brings together the world's finest meats: American Black Angus, Australian wagyu, certified Kobe beef and even rare Kobe ham, available exclusively here. Alongside the prime cuts and signature mashed potatoes, luxury street food (crispy beef rolls and tacos) gives the genre a relaxed touch. The World's 101 Best Steak Restaurants ranking has placed it among the great meat restaurants of the world.

Dinner beneath stained glass

Botanical frescoes, ceramics and Belle Époque female figures: you dine in museum-worthy surroundings, recognised by the Restaurant and Bar Design Awards. Evening valet parking; open daily for lunch and dinner.

Who is it for?

• A birthday or special occasion: the setting makes up half the memory
• Anyone curious about authentic Kobe and wagyu
• A dinner to make an impression in the heart of the Golden Triangle

Why Beefbar leaves an impression

Because nowhere else in Paris serves meat of this calibre beneath a listed glass roof from 1898.

Beefbar, meat's Belle Époque.
