More than just a restaurant, Le Castiglione Caf\u00e9 is a place of its time, elegantly embracing savoir faire and
\nmodernity in the colors of the times. Located just north of the Tuileries Gardens and close to Place Vend\u00f4me,
\npure 18th-century jewels, considered one of the most prestigious squares in the world. Jules Hardouin Mansart, the Sun King’s first architect and superintendent of buildings, designed one of Paris’ most prestigious masterpieces
\n.

\nIn this caf\u00e9, refinement is the order of the day.<\/strong>
\nRue Saint Honor\u00e9 allows you to indulge in a slice of ecstasy on the terrace, from breakfast to lunch and right through to the Angelus. If you feel like it, the invigorating sunshine is a sure-fire anti-stress booster packed with vitamin D. Just for you, the red leopard print carpet can be walked on from top to bottom, 364 days out of 365, with attentive staff.

\nAt the Castiglione Caf\u00e9, style, Parisian signature and French elegance are shared with emotion.
\nThere are fans, and the director-actress-writer-producer Sofia Coppola, daughter of the godfather, praised the Casti Burger in her Sofia’s Adress Book, as one of, if not the best burger in the capital…
\nOn a lucky day, you can dine on gratin\u00e9e d’oignons with the Stones, who have a furnished apartment on the second floor of
\n. Au Casti, as the regulars say, is ideal for livening up a business dinner, enjoying a cup of coffee, reading the paper, seeing green suns, lace and teapots, and a change of atmosphere!
\nCouet is no copyist, however, and his personality shines through in the layers of a traditional table, which doesn’t mean conservative.
\nAt Casti Caf\u00e9, the cuisine is “Haute Go\u00fbture”, with a popu mix mixed with an eclectic spirit – Caesar, Milanese, risotto, fish & chips, red fruit panacotta, club sandwich – with belly-pleasing
\nguaranteed.
