Café Boulud at Maison BARNES has been awarded a Michelin Star for the second consecutive year, reinforcing the Park Avenue establishment’s growing reputation as a global ambassador of the Art de Vivre philosophy. The renewed distinction highlights both the restaurant’s culinary mastery and Maison BARNES’s broader vision, which blends gastronomy, culture, and hospitality into a unified luxury experience.
The Michelin Guide’s continued recognition reflects the talent and precision of the Café Boulud team. Maison BARNES acknowledged the leadership of Chef Daniel Boulud, the expertise of Executive Chef Romain Paumier, and the dedication of both kitchen and dining room staff for consistently delivering refined, memorable dining moments.
“Retaining our Michelin Star for the second consecutive year at Café Boulud within Maison BARNES is an immense honor,” said Thibault de Saint Vincent, President of BARNES International. “It reflects not only the excellence of Chef Daniel Boulud and his team, but also the deeper ambition of Maison BARNES: to celebrate the Art de Vivre as a living, breathing experience. This distinction confirms our belief that Maison BARNES is more than a destination; it is a place of beauty, generosity, and shared emotion.”
The restaurant also earned renewed praise from La Liste, the global gastronomic ranking system. Following last year’s recognition as “Best New Opening of the Year,” Café Boulud at Maison BARNES has once again been named among the “1,000 Best Restaurants in the World,” reinforcing its position as a leader in contemporary fine dining.
Maison BARNES, which opened in 2024, represents a significant expansion of the BARNES International brand into the high-end hospitality sector. Located on Park Avenue, the venue brings together French and international craftsmanship across cuisine, design, architecture, fashion, fine arts, and viticulture. Its curated events, refined interiors, and emphasis on elevated lifestyle experiences are designed to introduce guests to a new standard of hospitality.
The consecutive Michelin Star and La Liste honors underscore Maison BARNES’s continued commitment to excellence and its mission to preserve and promote the Art de Vivre on a global stage.
