Pavillon Élysée Lenôtre
Reviewed by Elena Voss · Roavina Travel Editor
This place is a Restaurant. It was established in 1899. It was designed by Albert Ballu.
Pavillon Élysée Lenôtre is the former name of the pavilion now operated as Pavillon Élysée Té, an event venue at 10 avenue des Champs-Élysées. The City of Paris dates the present building to 1899 and names Albert Ballu as its architect. A municipal heritage record describes an eclectic design combining Renaissance, Baroque and Italianate elements, with sculptural decoration by Blanchard and Constant. The pavilion originally housed Restaurant Paillard and took the Pavillon de l’Élysée name during work before the 1900 Exposition Universelle.
Lenôtre began operating the site in 1984. Paris City Council documents from 2017 record that Lenôtre did not bid for the next concession, ending its association with the address. The current operator presents Pavillon Élysée Té as a private event venue rather than a standard tourist attraction or walk-in restaurant. Its five rooms total nearly 450 square metres. The principal spaces include the Salle des Fresques, where original mouldings and paintings remain, and a rotunda conservatory opening to the terrace. The venue hosts workdays, press conferences, receptions, seated lunches and dinners, with catering and a signature menu associated with Thierry Marx. Access is arranged through an event booking or quotation request; the operator does not publish general sightseeing hours or admission.
