01 — The terrace
An exceptional terrace suspended above the Seine
Set on the monumental forecourt of the Museum of Modern Art, Corail offers a raw sensory immersion, staged opposite the capital's most famous monument. Here, the 1930s architectural brickwork fades away to make room for a striking closeness to the Seine and the Iron Lady.
Settling in at Corail means choosing a unique location in the heart of the Golden Triangle. Conceived as a belvedere suspended above the Seine, this restaurant in Paris at the Museum of Modern Art unveils a striking frontal perspective of the Eiffel Tower, capturing the full grandeur of the structure from its stone base to its summit.
A sunlit interlude facing Chaillot Hill
At lunchtime, the terrace is lit by a soft clarity, offering a refined scene where contemporary art lovers and business figures cross paths. The serene pace of lunch lets you appreciate the monumental metal structure standing out against the blue sky. This quiet, airy setting is ideal for a business lunch or a contemplative break after an exhibition.
