Discover Loulou, a refined restaurant located in the heart of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs. Nestled between the lush Tuileries Gardens and the majestic Eiffel Tower, Loulou offers a Parisian culinary experience imbued with magic in an elegant and serene setting.
Inspired by the whimsy and boldness of Loulou de la Falaise, Yves Saint Laurent’s muse, this restaurant embodies a free-spirited, hedonistic, and erudite spirit that blends elegance, discreet luxury, and good cheer. The décor is a tribute to Parisian sophistication and charm, creating an atmosphere where every meal feels like a celebration.
Exceptional Mediterranean Cuisine
Loulou offers authentic, family-style Mediterranean cuisine that highlights the flavors of the French and Italian Riviera. The restaurant's menu is a celebration of Mediterranean gastronomy, featuring a selection of high-quality ingredients from southern France, Italy, and Sicily. In the kitchen, Benoît Dargère and Zouhair Bouhlal reinvent Mediterranean classics with culinary creativity that elevates carefully chosen ingredients.
On the menu: raw purple artichokes with Parmigiano Reggiano and extra virgin olive oil, veal fillet alla Milanese, seared tuna with Piedmont hazelnuts, and homemade tiramisu, just to name a few. Each dish is meticulously prepared to offer a burst of flavors in every bite.
A Culinary Experience in an Enchanted Setting
The magic of Loulou extends beyond its cuisine. The restaurant provides an enchanting setting with breathtaking views of the Louvre Gardens and the sparkling Eiffel Tower. In the summer, we highly recommend reserving a table on the terrace to fully enjoy the beauty of the surroundings. You’ll be immersed in an extraordinary spectacle, not only on your plate but also in the garden that surrounds the museum.
Loulou's dining room is cozy, refined, and flavorful, with service that matches the exquisite quality of the dishes. Whether you choose to savor the daily risotto, veal piccata al limone with sage, or grilled octopus with aioli, each bite is an unforgettable sensory experience.
Come discover Loulou for an exceptional gourmet dinner in one of Paris's most magical locations.
