About Paradou

Welcome to Paradou, a little bit of Proven�al paradise in the heart of Manhattan�s Meatpacking District. Behind the sky-blue doors of a 19th century carriage house, is a restaurant that will transport you to your own quiet, romantic corner of the South of France. High ceilings and white-washed brick walls, bar and tables constructed of vintage French wine crates are the backdrop for a highly acclaimed list featuring more than 50 French wines, matched by an equally extensive and innvative seasonal menu overseen by Paul Bocuse & Daniel Boulud-trained Executive Chef, Kfir Ben Ari. As warm, welcoming and inviting as Paradou is, it is OUR HIDDEN, YEAR-ROUND GARDEN that makes it a true refuge in NYC. Possessing one of the most unique outdoor, all-season spaces, Paradou offers a wonderful setting for gatherings, whether an intimate dinner for two or large parties up to 100, in a private corner of idyllic Proven�e in the heart of New York.

place		“...If the weather is nice, make sure you ask for a table in the garden!
