Loulou', Italian restaurant in Tuileries Garden, France
Loulou' is an Italian restaurant in a bright space next to the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, with large windows overlooking the Louvre gardens and marble-topped tables. The establishment sits at an address in the first arrondissement with views toward one of the city's most visited gardens.
The restaurant opened in 2016 within the historic Musée des Arts Décoratifs, a 19th-century building. Its location within this established institution connected the new restaurant to the artistic history of the district.
The menu presents Mediterranean cooking with risotto, veal piccata, and fresh pasta made from seasonal ingredients, all prepared following Chef Benoît Dargère's approach. Diners experience Italian flavors in a Parisian setting.
A visit requires advance reservation at least two weeks ahead, and the location is reachable both on weekdays and weekends. Visitors should plan to arrive either for lunch or dinner, as the restaurant operates on two distinct service periods.
The restaurant is accessed from outside through the museum gardens, making the walk to dining a passage through one of the city's most famous green spaces. This approach creates an unusual link between the art museum and the eating experience.
