About
In the heart of Paris’s 8th arrondissement, just a few steps from the Arc de Triomphe, da Alfredo celebrates the Italian way of life through authentic, hearty cuisine prepared entirely to order. More than just a restaurant, it’s a place where people come to share a meal, a bottle of wine, and a moment of conviviality—just like in Italy.
This iconic spot, formerly known as Finzi for over 40 years, has found a new lease on life with Alfred, a lifelong passionate restaurateur. Fascinated by the restaurant business since the age of 8, he has a simple yet demanding vision: to offer great food, great drinks, and a warm welcome to great guests. When he discovered this restaurant, it was love at first sight. He decided to preserve its history while infusing it with his own personality and his love of Italian cuisine.
At da Alfredo, quality begins in the kitchen. Everything is prepared to order, without compromise. Fresh pasta is made on-site, recipes evolve with the availability of fresh, seasonal ingredients, desserts are homemade, and every dish is designed to bring out the best of Italian flavors. This pursuit of authenticity extends to the wine cellar, featuring a carefully curated selection of Italian wines to complement every meal.
The experience continues in an authentic 1940s- and 1950s-style setting, where vintage charm meets timeless elegance. The atmosphere is warm, lively, and welcoming, whether you’re coming for a business lunch, a romantic dinner, a family meal, or an evening with friends.
Thanks to its prime location in Paris’s 8th arrondissement—easily accessible by metro, bus, or car via the nearby parking lot—da Alfredo is also the ideal venue for hosting your private and professional events. The restaurant can accommodate up to 77 guests for a fully private event, or 22 people in its semi-private dining room.
