History

The restaurant was founded in 1898[2] during the 1900 Paris Exposition at the intersection of 3–5 rue Marbeuf and 27 rue du Boccador neighboring the Hôtel George-V, the Théâtre du Rond-Point, the Théâtre Marigny and the cabaret Crazy Horse between the Champs-Élysées Avenue and the Seine River. The restaurant was originally owned by the Langham Hotel of rue de Mogador.

In 2018, the restaurateur Riccardo Giraudi took over the establishment and opened his Beefbar restaurant. The "1900 room" was entirely refurbished by architects Emil Humbert and Christophe Poyet.[3][4]

Architecture

The restaurant's winter garden-like Belle Époque Art Nouveau "1900 room" (salle 1900) was created by architect Émile Hurtré, craft painters Hubert and Martineau and ceramicist Jules Wielhorski.[5] Its original setting was restored in 1978.[6] It has a skylight roof, stained-glass windows, frescoes, ceramics, mosaics, wall paintings, chandeliers and furniture.[7]

The "1900 room" was listed as an official Historical Monument on December 9th, 1983.[8]
