Maslow Temple, the largest veggie restaurant in Paris, makes its red revolution

What if the new star of the Parisian food scene was… entirely vegetarian? With Maslow Temple, the Maslow Group team is hitting hard: a gigantic venue, an incandescent decor, a cuisine without meat or fish but with overflowing creativity. All this in the heart of the Marais, just opposite the Carreau du Temple.

A grandiose, flamboyant and plural place

Conceived as a visual and culinary manifesto, Maslow Temple unfolds its story over three levels, in an Eiffel space reinvented by Juliette Rubel, the group’s fetish architect. Everything here vibrates red: from the walls to the curtains, right down to the majestic bar and the subdued lighting of the speakeasy Graal Bar, nestled beneath the glass roof. Three floors, three ambiances: a Parisian brasserie with burgundy banquettes and mirrors on the first floor, a monumental marble counter upstairs, a sunny terrace for summer, and a strong, eco-responsible and ultra-desirable bias in every corner.

A daring and addictive vegetarian menu

But aesthetic shock would be nothing without a plate to match. Mehdi Favri, accompanied by Julia Chican and Marine Ricklin, has created a menu that turns vegetarian cuisine into a playground as generous as it is spectacular. Churro-style potatoes dipped in a creamy sauce, fried kimchi as crisp as accras, whole artichoke dip & crunch, or Pithiviers with mushrooms and truffled polenta: each dish is a celebration of vegetarianism, with an assertive street food approach and nods to bistro and Asian cuisine.

Desserts and cocktails that hit the spot

When it comes to desserts, the house is not to be outdone: Paris-Beirut choux with sesame and orange blossom, crispy Une Feuille with smoked vanilla and black lemon caramel, house cocktails with or without alcohol… Here, everything makes you want to come back. Good news: Maslow Temple is open daily from midday to midnight.
