L'Ardoise du XV hosts company dinners, team lunches, business meals, family celebrations and weddings. The whole restaurant can be hired for 30 to 70 guests, one of its two areas suits a group of about 20, and a long table is available for parties under 16. The bistro is at 70 Rue Sébastien Mercier in the 15th arrondissement of Paris, in the Boucicaut neighborhood near Beaugrenelle.
Seminars and company events
The restaurant is a place for the meal around a working day rather than for the meeting itself. It hosts business lunches and dinners, team gatherings and company evenings. For a team of about 20, one of the two dining areas can be reserved so the group has its own space, for a lunch after a morning meeting or a dinner to close a project. For 30 to 70 guests, the restaurant closes to the public and the evening is built with the chef.
The dining room is air-conditioned. The house is open Tuesday to Saturday, from noon to 2 pm and from 7 pm to 10 pm, and closed on Sunday and Monday.
Weddings and receptions
Full hire covers weddings, family reunions, baptisms, communions and other celebrations. For a wedding dinner or a reception of 30 to 70 guests, the chef designs a menu with the couple and can meet them on site beforehand for a visit of the rooms. This suits a small wedding, a civil ceremony lunch or a rehearsal dinner in Paris.
Rooms and capacities
The house offers three formats. A large table in the dining room takes groups of fewer than 16. One of the two areas of the restaurant can be reserved for about 20 guests. The whole restaurant can be hired for groups of 30 to 70. The site does not give the size or seated capacity of each area separately.
Catering
The kitchen serves traditional French cooking made from fresh, seasonal produce, written on a slate and changed with what the market brings. At lunch, a set menu changes every week. For a private hire, the chef prepares a tailored menu with the organizer. The house cooks everything itself, so there is no outside caterer.
History and setting
L'Ardoise du XV is a long-standing bistro of the Boucicaut neighborhood. In 2021 it was taken over by a chef who first worked six years as a supply-chain engineer, then trained at the Institut Paul Bocuse in Lyon. He learned to cook alongside his grandmother and mother and keeps that approach: simple, carefully handled products and recipes rooted in French tradition. He and his team welcome guests from Tuesday to Saturday, for family meals, meals with friends, business lunches and private events.
Getting there
The restaurant is at 70 Rue Sébastien Mercier, 75015 Paris, in a residential part of the 15th arrondissement between the Seine and the Boucicaut area, close to the Beaugrenelle shopping center. Several metro stations are within walking distance, which makes it easy to reach after a meeting in the west of Paris. Reservations and private hire requests are handled by phone or through the contact page.
