The restaurant, designed by architect Peter Marino, is located inside the house's renovated headquarters at 30 Avenue Montaigne. The storied building houses two eateries: a Monsieur Dior restaurant and a Dior pastry café, both run by renowned French chef Jean Imbert, and located in an atrium decorated with tall tropical trees and flowers.
The winner of the French edition of “Top Chef” in 2012, Imbert runs several restaurants, including Mamie par Jean Imbert in Paris, which specializes in recipes gleaned from his grandmother alongside ventures with musician Pharrell Williams in Miami and Saint-Tropez and the two restaurants at the Hôtel Plaza Athénée, across the street from Dior. At Monsieur Dior, expect updates on classis dishes like roast chicken stuffed with herbs and fromage blanc, endive salad and poached eggs with artichoke hearts.
Raw jumbo shrimp with citrus fruits; goat’s cheese ravioli with sweet pepper; tomato and olive gnocchi; roasted hen and Anna potatoes and “Monsieur Dior” Veal fillet.
