Here we go, it’s back to school time! The return of the daily grind, the summer tan fading away, and the autumn weather starting to show its face. So, what do we do? We turn to restaurants to drown our sorrows. And luckily for us, the new spots that opened at the end of summer are really brightening up our return!


The Envy Banquet

After Pride and Anger, his two successful Parisian restaurants, Chef Eloi Spinnler continues his journey through the seven deadly sins, this time taking on envy with a brand new restaurant that gives new meaning to the all-you-can-eat buffet. This spot is less about bistro dining and more about relaxation, opening in the Marais on September 4 (with a soft opening starting from August 21). What's on the menu? A spacious 500 m2 area spread over two levels, featuring around a hundred homemade offerings, including 60 savory dishes, 15 cheeses, and 25 desserts.

The bistronomic restaurant of La Fondation

Opened last spring, La Fondation – a vibrant spot featuring a hotel, rooftop, spa, climbing wall, and more – continues to unveil its charm by opening its second restaurant to the public. After enjoying the brasserie on the ground floor, you can now head up to the 8th floor for a bistronomic experience, complete with an breathtaking view, chic design décor, a cozy terrace (heated in winter by a fireplace), and delightful dishes crafted by the talented Chef Thomas Rossi.

The Stop

The famous chef Mashama Bailey – spotted in a dedicated episode of Chef’s Table on Netflix – is bringing her pots and pans to the international scene! After The Grey, her iconic establishment in the Savannah region where she shines a light on Southern U.S. cuisine, she’s setting up shop in Paris with her friend and partner Johno Morisano, in what was once the Café de l'Espérance in the 7th. Together, they’ve decided to keep the spirit of the place in true Parisian bistro style with their own twist: the flavors of Port City Southern cuisine featuring the signature dish, Chicken Country Captain.

In September, Datsha is undergoing a transformation and becoming Finka, driven by the young Colombian chef Esteban Salazar, who caught everyone's eye in season 16 of Top Chef. With a cuisine deeply rooted in French tradition and brimming with both Latin and Creole inspirations, the chef aims to share generous and refined plates, blending sun-kissed flavors with childhood memories. In short, a new era is beginning for this iconic spot in the Marais.

A new festive place blending theater, cuisine, and entertainment, Palacio – envisioned by Studio Louis Morgan – invites you to immerse yourself in a sumptuous and slightly sultry decor, with velvet, soft lighting, Roman columns, and tall palm trees. On the food side, we celebrate the Basque Country with reimagined pintxos and charcoal cooking, all while enjoying a dinner show featuring dancers, acrobats, and performers of all kinds. A true palace that enlivens the Parisian nights until dawn.

Already celebrated at El Club Allard in Madrid, the chef José Maria Goñi Martínez, a rising star of the Iberian culinary scene, is setting up his kitchen for the first time in Paris. A new adventure called Rosario – named after Adrien’s aunt, the Franco-Spanish co-founder of the place – that invites Spain to the table, featuring a cuisine rooted in tradition yet resolutely contemporary. A spot that embodies the essence of the Iberian Peninsula, blending generosity and sincerity.
