About this space

At Orsay, sophistication and intimacy blend together to create an unforgettable dining experience. The walls, adorned with dark mahogany panels, exude an elegant ambiance, while the buttery Art Nouveau arches add a touch of coziness. As you step onto the floor, you'll be captivated by the mesmerizing waves of hand-laid Italian mosaic tiles, forming intricate patterns that catch the eye.

Immerse yourself in a private setting as you settle into the banquettes, which are topped with frosted glass for an exclusive touch. The soft glow emitted by the custom-designed Art Nouveau chandeliers, inspired by a vintage Parisian piece, bathes the space in a gentle radiance.

At the center of Orsay, a magnificent 24-foot bar with a pewter top awaits, inviting you to indulge in expertly crafted cocktails. And when the weather permits, the French doors open onto a charming sidewalk terrace, allowing you to fully enjoy the allure of this elegant brasserie, reminiscent of Paris.
