Epicure | Three Michelin-Starred French Gastronomy at Le Bristol Paris

Epicure is the three-Michelin-star gastronomic restaurant of Le Bristol Paris, where Chef Arnaud Faye brings a refined contemporary perspective to French haute cuisine. Seasonal ingredients, exceptional producers and precise technique shape an elegant dining experience overlooking the palace hotel’s French-style garden on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré.

TLC Paris tip: Treat Epicure as the main event rather than simply another dinner reservation. Lunch offers a slightly shorter introduction to the restaurant, while the full tasting experience is ideal for a special occasion. Arrive with enough time to enjoy Le Bristol itself — and consider a drink at Le Bar du Bristol before or after dinner.

Good to Know +
  • Choose lunch if you prefer the shorter six-course tasting format.
  • Reserve well ahead if Epicure is one of the main dining experiences of your Paris stay.
  • Allow generous time for the meal rather than fitting it tightly between appointments.
  • The restaurant’s location on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré makes it easy to combine with luxury shopping and galleries nearby.
  • 114 Faubourg is a useful alternative if you want to experience Le Bristol’s cuisine in a more relaxed setting.
  • Le Bar du Bristol works well for a pre-dinner or post-dinner drink.
  • TLC Paris tip: Epicure is best treated as a destination in itself — arrive early enough to enjoy the atmosphere of Le Bristol rather than going straight from the street to the table.
