Charbone, a new Parisian rendezvous

At 16 Avenue de l’Opéra, Charbone moves with the city, from lunch through dinner. John Whelan’s interiors give 1930s elegance a contemporary twist, while the open kitchen brings the chefs’ craft into view.

Adam Bentalha’s French cooking combines generosity with precision, bringing as much pleasure to the plate as to the gathering around it. Carefully chosen wines and live music on Thursday evenings set the tone. A restaurant for lunch, dinner, staying a little longer and making a habit of.
