Bar Josephine is beautiful, elegant, sophisticated and ludicrously expensive. Please know what you…read moreare getting into, but with the proper expectation, sticker shock can be moderated. Located in the venerable, and at one time sinister Lutetia Hotel, Bar Joséphine and the entire interior is the result of a long term renovation. Traditionalists will be disappointed. The Lutetia looks nothing like the original. Having been a long term patron of Restaurant Le Paris in the old Lutetia, any need to be nostalgic was thrown out the window. This place is brand new, but I will always miss the cooking of Philippe Reynard and the stateroom design of Sonia Rykiel. Bar Joséphine is lovely and a throwback to a Paris of a different time. This is Fred Astaire and Grace Kelly; white gloved and tuxedoed elegance. I love it, but it is not for everyone. The flanneled army of techno heads may find Bar Joséphine too pretentious and stuffy. There is nothing to pretend here. The Lutetia Hotel is the epitome of an "expense account" past. As the innocuous phrase goes, "it is what it is."

Omg this place is BEAUTIFUL! The hotel is gorgeous and the service is spectacular. It's one of the…read morefew elegant bars in the area. I had a nice evening (check the website to get the band schedule). I ordered sushi and fries. The food was pretty good (fries were outstanding). No resy needed! Glad I could pop in and pay homage to Josephine Baker during my time in Paris.

I loved Little Red Door when I went with my friend Ava B. a couple years back, and I wanted to take…read moremy husband Matt B. when we were in Paris this month. We ended up going with Ava and her boyfriend Yassine, lining up after dinner, around 10:30 on a Friday night. There was a small crowd waiting outside, and it took us about a half hour to get in. The place was fun and busy, and as charming as I remembered. We got seated in a loungey upstairs area and received excellent table service. There was free popcorn and even a complimentary round of welcome drinks, a strong mini cocktail of Gentian and peated whiskey. The menu had changed over completely since my first visit. The cocktail offerings were printed onto thick printed leaves arranged on metal branches, forming a cool little tree centerpiece that replaced a paper menu (there was also a more detailed menu available online). Several of the cocktails were labeled with raindrops, indicating they were available as mocktails--helpful for Yassine, who doesn't drink alcohol. Matt and I shared two rounds, sampling a good chunk of this new menu. Everything was delicious. The Carbone was a bright, interesting cocktail made with beetroot, black garlic, Origin smoked gin, and Dartigalongue Un-Oaked, served with a cube of frozen yogurt that melted lushly into the beet-red drink. The Serre Solaire was smooth and boozy, with black tea, green walnut and milk, Cointreau, and Rémy Martin cognac. The Résilience was a highbrow tropical cocktail, with sorghum, pineapple sage, Pasquet cognac, and Savanna rum. The Permaculture was creative and flavorful, with chestnut, butter, wakame umeshu, and Avallen Calvados. I also tried a sip of Ava's Aquaponie, a light, juicy vodka drink with basil, lemon and sweet clover, St. Germain, and Grey Goose. I love Little Red Door and I'm glad I got to visit a second time and share it with my husband. We do live kind of far away, but I hope a third visit is in the cards.

A friend recommended this place and Paris and the vibes are alluding, mysterious, and sexy. I found…read morea new drink I love I will try to make at home! So the little red door has a cute red door but the bouncer lets you in through another door (novelty observed haha). The man takes your jacket and umbrella (what a gentleman!) and sat us on the second floor. While the space between the couch and the seats were rather small, we were able to manage. I got the permaculture and resilience. The resilience is a club favorite and my favorite too! The way the sorghum, pineapple sage (syrup), pasquet cognac, and savanna rum all tied together was a blessing. I was going to get a third but I was tipsy by my second drink. My first drink was the permaculture and while I was considered it would be strong, it didn't seem strong to me. I love clarified dairy in alcohol so this was a win in my book. It consists of chestnut, butter, wakaze umeshu, avallen Calvados. The bar let's you stay for an hour but if you sit elsewhere, you can stay as long as you want. 5 stars and I hope to come back someday!
