Gigi’s is perched atop the legendary Théâtre des Champs-Élysées on Avenue Montaigne. Designed by architect Hugo Toro, the dining room is modeled after an elegant Italian residential salon. Travertine marble columns, soft velvet banquettes in warm terracotta, and massive gold light fixtures create an ambiance that is luxurious yet intimate.
During Paris Fashion Week, the outdoor terrace is the absolute center of the city's fashion scene. Diners book weeks in advance to secure sunset tables, where the terrace overlooks an eye-level view of the Eiffel Tower. A live acoustic band plays classic Italian tunes like "Volare", creating a high-energy dining party that feels like a glamorous escape to Rome.
Dine at these hours to witness the Eiffel Tower sparkle (every hour on the hour for 5 minutes, starting at sunset):
"It's the dream of the Italian summer, set against the slate roofs of Paris."
