Gourmet French dining with Mediterranean-influenced cuisine
"This elegant restaurant boasts an idyllic setting in the gardens of the Palais Royal, a stone's throw from the Ministry for Culture. Officiating in the kitchen is Philip Chronopoulos, who notably worked at L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon (its Étoile location) and with Alain Passard. He cooks up creative and striking cuisine, designing bracingly mature recipes with Mediterranean accents. From Athens to Paris (the name of one of the menus), from the delicate mezze to start the meal to the inventive desserts, his art elevates superb ingredients, some of which are nods to his native Greece: saffron from Kozani, honey from the Peloponnese, exceptional olive oil. "Royal" is indeed the word." - Michelin Inspector
"This restaurant is an Italian offshoot of the award-winning Palais Royal in Paris. To the delight of gourmet food-lovers, Greek chef Philip Chronopoulos now also serves his delicious gastronomic creations in Venice, in this restaurant in the Nolinski hotel housed in the former Palazzo della Borsa. The elliptical dining room, with a muffled ambience thanks to its beautiful carpet, has a charm of its own, which lightly harks back to the 1950s. Here, guests have a choice of two tasting menus which showcase cuisine with a Mediterranean flavour, French techniques, numerous Greek influences (including the opening course which reinterprets classic recipes), and Italian ingredients. Top-quality options such as lobster and caviar are prepared with precision and served with real skill – it comes as no surprise to learn that Philip previously worked with renowned chefs such as Joël Robuchon and Alain Passard. An excellent new address for the Venetian Lagoon!" - Michelin Inspector

"This restaurant enjoys a prime location beneath the colonnades of the Palais Royal. In good weather, the terrace transforms into a space hosting lunches and dinners in the garden. Two private lounges upstairs create the sense of entering a chic Parisian apartment. Greek Chef Philip Chronopoulos, previously of L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon – Étoile and Alain Passard's Arpège, devises a menu marrying creativity with striking Mediterranean-influenced cuisine." - The MICHELIN Guide
"In Paris, Greek-born chef, Philip Chronopoulos and his team earned their second Star at the Palais Royal Restaurant." - Le Guide MICHELIN
