Since 1996, Buddha-Bar Paris has occupied an impressive multi-level space of almost 1,000 m², a short walk from Place de la Concorde. The restaurant is dominated by a monumental Buddha approximately four metres tall, surrounded by alcoves, imposing chandeliers and a dragon-shaped bar.
Why is it still distinctive in 2026?
The concept blends Asian-inspired Pacific Rim fusion cuisine, cocktails and a strong musical identity. Lounge, ethno-house and deep house have been central to the venue's identity since it opened, under the artistic direction of DJ Ravin.
The restaurant opens daily from 7 pm; the bar and mezzanine open from 6 pm, with closing around 2 am.
Brunch in 2026
On Sundays, Buddha-Bar also offers a Signature Brunch from noon, themed around different Asian destinations: a sweet-and-savoury buffet, signature dishes, cocktails or mocktails, a dedicated playlist, food workshops and children's entertainment.
The extra touch
The decor is not simply a restaurant theme: it played a major role in shaping the Buddha-Bar brand's distinctive design and musical identity internationally. Choose this address as much for its atmosphere as for its food.
