From the dramatic gold dome and brass chandeliers of the main dining area to the exotic atmosphere of the Bar Seine, Arabelle offers a romantic dining experience. The restaurant is situated in the elegant Hotel Plaza Athénée. Several intimate dining alcoves, which serve as extensions of both the Bar Seine and the main dining room, are offered to guests during hours when the main dining is closed. Specialty dishes on the classic American menu include coffee-rubbed New York strip steak and grilled diver sea scallops. There’s also a traditional Sunday brunch and afternoon high tea.
