Beverly Hills will soon be the home of a new culinary landmark as Michelin-starred chef Dominique Crenn prepares to open her highly anticipated restaurant, Monsieur Dior, this fall. Set atop the flagship Dior store at 323 North Rodeo Drive, this marks Crenn’s inaugural restaurant venture in Los Angeles.
Monsieur Dior will be the first full-service dining establishment under the Dior brand in the United States, offering both lunch and dinner services. This is a notable expansion from her previous project, Café Dior in Dallas, which was limited to lunch service. The restaurant will accommodate 105 guests, featuring a lounge and bar area alongside both indoor and outdoor dining options.
The pricing for menu items has yet to be announced, but diners can expect a selection of visually stunning à la carte dishes inspired by red carpet glamour and the allure of Old Hollywood. Highlights of the confirmed menu include:
- Tuna tartare served with purple yam chips and crème fraiche
- Black truffle agnolotti accompanied by mushroom consommé
- Guinea hen presented with maitake mushroom and turnip
- Ribeye cap complemented by cauliflower purée and black truffle
- Desserts such as coconut cream with raspberries and pistachio, inspired by actress Jean Seberg
- Devil’s food cake that pays tribute to Princess Diana adorned with a Lady Dior bag
Crenn’s culinary philosophy emphasizes storytelling through her dishes, echoing the rich legacy of Christian Dior and the glamorous world of Hollywood. The restaurant’s interior design will feature luxury-branded serveware and decor that aligns with the haute couture identity of the Dior brand, creating a sophisticated dining atmosphere.
The opening of Monsieur Dior occurs amid Dior’s strategic effort to expand its presence in the U.S. market. This aligns with recent expansions in California, further establishing the brand’s foothold in high-end retail and dining experiences within the region. The flagship location in Beverly Hills spans four floors and includes luxury retail space, showcasing the craftsmanship and innovative designs synonymous with the brand.
Crenn’s collaboration with Dior reflects her commitment to storytelling and artistry within her culinary craft. As a trailblazer, she is recognized as the first female chef in the United States to attain three Michelin stars, a distinction that positions her restaurant as a significant addition to the culinary landscape of Beverly Hills.
The development also highlights the competitive nature of high-end dining in the area, with other chef-affiliated venues like the Ralph Lauren restaurant nearby, offering diners a variety of exceptional culinary options in a luxury setting.
As the fall opening approaches, anticipation continues to build around Monsieur Dior as it promises to offer a unique blend of exquisite cuisine, impeccable service, and a glamorous atmosphere, all while paying homage to the influential legacy of Christian Dior.
