In the heart of Paris, on Rue Saint-Honoré, stands the refurbished Benihana restaurant, a globally recognized teppanyaki eatery that has graced our screens in films like The Wolf of Wall Street and TV shows such as Mad Men. As it celebrates its 60th anniversary, this iconic establishment now finds itself nestled among high-end boutiques and historic landmarks on Rue Saint-Honoré.
Benihana presents a fresh, elegant face to the world, with an upgraded cocktail menu, a sushi bar, and those distinctive grill stations where dining becomes an artistic spectacle. The interior design is the work of Mathilde LaVillaine, featuring a stunning 30-foot plum tree sculpture that ascends the grand staircase, intricate Kumiko patterns on the windows, traditional Japanese prints decorating the walls, and the art of kintsugi, which incorporates gold to mend broken objects and adds to their charm, scattered throughout the restaurant.
