Dior’s Monsieur Dior restaurant at its Avenue Montaigne flagship in Paris has been awarded its first Michelin star in the 2026 Guide, just seven months after chef Yannick Alléno took over. The restaurant blends haute cuisine with the brand’s couture heritage. Alléno’s menu draws on Christian Dior’s love of gastronomy, including the signature Oeuf Christian Dior dish. The award underscores Dior's push into experiential luxury, with Monsieur Dior concepts expanding to the U.S. and China. Alléno's flagship restaurants Pavillon Ledoyen and Le 1947 retain three-Michelin-star status in 2026.
