La Plage Parisienne, the terrace restaurant for relaxing on the banks of the Seine

Situated between the Mirabeau Bridge and the famous Maison de la Radio, on the Javel metro station in the 15th arrondissement, La Plage Parisienne offers not only a beautiful view of the Eiffel Tower and the (Parisian) Statue of Liberty, but also fine Mediterranean cuisine, all in a decor that blends the Roaring Twenties and vintage seaside.

The sun is finally out, and we're not averse to a trip to the water's edge. So it's time to take to the quays again and experience the spring and summer season in Paris! Contrary to popular belief, this venue is open all year round, even in winter. From Wednesday to Saturday, 6pm to midnight, and on Sundays from 12pm to 4pm, as well as on Friday and Saturday evenings, the place transforms itself into a festive restaurant. Every Sunday, the house also offers a brunch at €42, which you can enjoy in the sunshine on sunny days.

When we arrive, two sides open up. On the right, a lovely seaside terrace, surrounded by plants and decorated with a beautiful olive tree, with an open and a shaded area.

On the left is the restaurant, which is open all year round. With its glass roofs, DJ area for lively evenings and colorful decor that transports us back in time, we're sure to be seduced. Martin Brudnizki's decor, inspired by the Roaring Twenties and the Mediterranean spirit, creates the ideal atmosphere for toasting, dancing and dining.

La Plage Parisienne offers a true Mediterranean escape with a breathtaking view of the Seine. Located on the Quai de Javel, this Beaumarly restaurant, run by Gilbert and Thierry Costes, modernizes Mediterranean cuisine with gourmet, colorful dishes, all in a friendly, musical atmosphere.

The sunny, refined cuisine revisits Beaumarly classics with a Mediterranean twist. As the weather is bordering on scorching, we opt for the shady part of the restaurant.

Among the starters, like us, you can enjoy a watermelon and melon salad with feta, offering exquisite freshness, or atiradito of white fish, green chili and yuzu, to spice up your meal slightly.

Sweet tooths will melt over the soft cookie with its chocolate sauce, while those in search of freshness will turn to the scoop of ice cream in its crispy tuile case. A delicious and regressive way to end a meal.

For meat lovers, roast chicken supreme with lemon confit, Beaumarly beef tartar and crying tiger are a must-try.
