The Art Deco brasserie inside the Plaza Athénée — the fashion world's canteen during couture, glamorous and reliable in equal measure.
The Relais Plaza is the more relaxed dining room of the Plaza Athénée, and during fashion week it effectively becomes the industry's commissary — a 1930s Art Deco room, modeled on the dining salon of a transatlantic liner, where the couture crowd takes lunch. It's glamorous, consistent, and a genuine piece of Avenue Montaigne history. You come for the room and the people-watching as much as the food, and the food holds up its end.
Refined brasserie and French classics — the kind of menu that suits a fashion-week lunch, executed to hotel-dining-room standard.
Streamlined 1930s Art Deco, inspired by an ocean liner — one of the most elegant Deco dining rooms in Paris, and a protected piece of the Plaza Athénée's history.
