And in order to deliver on its fine promise, the Chez Charles powers that be have hand-selected the dynamic team at the Chez Charles Restaurant.

Ambiance at Chez Charles Restaurant Dubai

The eatery’s vibrant ambiance combines Parisian brasserie influences with subtle touches of Provence, which creates a contemporary take on the French dining experience. The main dining area has floor to ceiling windows and can sit about 80 guests. It also overlooks an alluring terrace with a private outdoor dining area.

There’s a large kitchen set behind a clear glass stage, which gives guests the ultimate access to the heart of the restaurant. This is perhaps the most compelling aspect at Chez Charles Restaurant. According to the founder and head honcho of the restaurant – Charles Boghos – the reason for this “openness” is to give guests access to the magic that takes place in the kitchen. This, he notes, is to make you fully appreciate the passion at the core of the Chez Charles team. And that’s why the kitchen became a part of the dining experience.

Interiors

The chic brasserie interiors take a stylish life of their own, with a delicate neutral palette. The simplicity of white-clothed tables is beautifully coupled with olive green and velvet chairs. There’s also a custom-made chandelier captivatingly suspended over the main dining area. From the bronze flecked antique mirrors to the gunmetal verrière that line the restaurant, each element is elegantly combined to create a contemporary brasserie feel. The outdoor terraces are tastefully lined with bright green plants, recreating the feeling of a winter garden in Paris. With interiors that perfectly complement the hedonistic style of Chez Charles’ gastronomy, the result is an epicurean brasserie, ready to satisfy your French cravings.

The Salon

The lounge, set aside from the dining area, includes a beautiful molded zinc bar counter, high table seating and its own lounge terrace. The Chez Charles Restaurant Dubai lounge conveys the same air of simple sophistication from the rustic accents to the sleek modern furniture. With its upbeat environment, the lounge is designed to offer an entirely different experience from that of the restaurant, complemented with a DJ. It simply offers guests the chance to enjoy drinks in a vibrant setting, whether it’s a tête-à-tête or a fun night out with friends.

The Chefs and the French Cuisine

The obviously French cuisine will be overseen by Chef Jeremy Degras who is also Executive Chef of the Chez Charles Group. And the contemporary French cuisine at the Chez Charles restaurant is rooted in the concept of ‘sans frontières’ cooking, which is the understanding that in the kitchen there is no limits or boundaries. The Chef seems very dedicated to experimenting with each dish and its individual ingredients to reach the ultimate flavor, taste and texture.

The bespoke menu will feature a selection of classic salads, poultry, hors d’oeuvres, seafood, meat, platters and pasta, and an extensive dessert menu. Highlights include Paella Saffron Risotto, Burgundy Snails a la Provençale, Bouillabaisse Marseillaise and Milk-Fed Veal Tenderloin with Niçoise Ratatouille.

Well, if you are a French cuisine lover, then Chez Charles restaurant Dubai is the new place for you to fulfill your French needs.
