Au Petit Riche
Au Petit Riche is a traditional French restaurant in Paris's 9th arrondissement serving classic French cuisine across several dining rooms. Red velvet banquettes, brass fixtures, and vintage mirrors throughout the space define the interior character.
The restaurant was founded in 1854 and has preserved its original wood-paneled walls and decorative elements ever since. It has served Parisians and international visitors across multiple generations as a favored gathering place.
The name references a celebrated 19th-century cabaret dancer, reflecting the Belle Epoque elegance that appealed to Parisians of that era. The red velvet seating and brass details create the impression of stepping into a past era when you sit at the tables.
