A unique atmosphere

Since its grand opening on December 30, 1936, Le Relais Plaza has remained a must-see in Paris. inspired by the Normandy liner, the restaurant has a unique atmosphere for a cuisine that plays the card of fine tradition, between « grandma’s cuisine » dear to Jean Imbert (sea bream gratin, stuffed tomato and pilaf rice) and classics that have made the reputation of the famous art deco address.

The chef relies on good products from producers whose work he appreciates (Jacky Mercier for tomatoes, salads from the Ferme du Perche, etc.). To avoid routine and make you want to come back regularly, the brasserie offers a weekly lunch and dinner. There are dishes such as mussels from Mont-Saint-Michel accompanied by straw potatoes on Fridays or brioche sausage on Thursdays…
