Jungle Palace Valvert can host private dinners, company evenings, product launches and group events for groups of more than 16 guests, with room for up to 140 seated or 180 standing. It is an immersive restaurant inside the Valvert Croix Blanche shopping center at 2 rue Marie Laurencin in Le Plessis-Pâté, in the Essonne. Its decor is built around a ruined building taken over by jungle.
Seminars and company events
The operator, Ephemera, sells its restaurants for professional events: conferences, seminars, product launches and film shoots are named on its privatization page. Corporate groups are welcome on the Valvert site, which the venue describes as a place for B2B groups and company evenings. The setting works best for a team dinner, a client evening or a launch where the room itself is part of the message, rather than for a long meeting day.
Two formats exist. Full privatization closes the whole restaurant to the public. Semi-privatization reserves a dedicated area while the restaurant stays open. The layout is modular and can be adjusted to the event. Screens can be personalized, rooms can be arranged to a custom plan, and the operator offers food and drink options and tailored entertainment. A brochure and a virtual tour are available from the operator.
Weddings and receptions
The official pages do not describe weddings. They name birthdays, nights out with friends and special evenings as private events, so a wedding reception should be raised with the team before any plan is made.
Rooms and capacities
The operator gives one capacity for the site: 140 seated guests and 180 standing guests for the restaurant as a whole. It does not list separate rooms on the pages read here. Groups are split into two bands for requests: under 16 guests and 17 or more. Semi-privatization suits smaller groups that want a defined area.
Catering
Food is cooked on site, and the menu is exotic and made in-house, with vegetarian dishes and shared plates. The restaurant also serves a children's menu. Meal-voucher cards are accepted, but not paper tickets. Any dietary needs for a group should be set when booking.
History and setting
The restaurant opened in a retail center rather than a historic building, and the interior is a stage set. Lighting, dense planting and decor are the point of the place. It belongs to a group that runs several immersive venues in France, including Jungle Palace in Paris 10.

By car, take the N104 and leave at exit 40. Parking is available on site. By public transport, take RER C to Brétigny and bus 4212, or RER D to Viry-Châtillon and buses 4505 or 4504. The site is accessible to guests with reduced mobility and offers free Wi-Fi.
