Giulia Paris Guide: the Italian Dinner That Turns Party
· Updated:
Giulia is an Italian restaurant at 20 rue Quentin Bauchart, near avenue George V in the 8th arrondissement, that turns into a party as the evening goes on. Access Le Mag gives Tuesday to Saturday, 19:00 to 02:00, with DJ sets and live acoustic music, and Paris Select Book puts the switch from dinner to party at around 23:00. It's a long dinner with a dance floor, not an all-night club.

Two halves of the same evening
Giulia works in two halves, and knowing that is the key to enjoying it. The first is a proper Italian dinner: chef Luca Famiglietti reworks the classics, as Access Le Mag described in March 2025. The second starts when the music goes up, with live acoustic sets and DJ sets. Paris Select Book, which listed Giulia among the five hottest clubs in Paris in July 2025, puts that moment at 23:00. In practice, the people who enjoy Giulia most are the ones who book the later dinner slot and let the evening slide from the table to the dance floor. Book too early and you may finish dessert before anything happens; turn up after 23:00 without a table and you may struggle to find a place, since the party happens around the dinner tables.


The room and the crowd
The décor leans Italian and warm: a green zephyr motif behind the bar, terracotta armchairs and pastoral frescoes on the walls. It doesn't look like a club, and that's part of the charm. The crowd is a mix of food lovers, regulars and people who came for dinner and decided not to leave, rather than a club crowd waiting for a headliner. The restaurant opened in early 2023, according to restaurant listings, and within two years it had become one of the party-dinner addresses of the Triangle d'Or. It suits birthdays and groups of friends who want to eat well and dance a bit, more than people who want to dance until 06:00. For that, plan a second stop.
What to do in Paris at night →What to wear and how to book
Giulia doesn't publish a dress code. The Triangle d'Or dinner crowd stays on to dance, so dress for a smart night out rather than a casual meal: a shirt or a dress, good shoes. To book, send us the date, the time you'd like and the number of guests on WhatsApp, and tell us whether the party is the main reason you're going, so we aim for the right slot. Conditions depend on the venue, the night and the table. For a birthday, mention it in your message: it helps us ask for the right table, and it's the kind of evening Giulia is made for. Groups are easier to seat with a firm headcount rather than a range.
After 02:00: where to go next
Giulia closes at 02:00, so if the night isn't over, the clubs of rue Pierre Charron (Cova and the later-starting Mirage) and Raspoutine on rue de Bassano are a few minutes away on foot. On a Friday or Saturday you might still catch one of the last metros, which run until about 02:15 on those nights; from Tuesday to Thursday the last trains leave around 01:15, before Giulia closes. Otherwise, the N11 night bus stops at George V, a short walk away.
