Andia: A Latin Journey to the Heart of the Train Station

In the heart of Paris’s 16th arrondissement, a breath of fresh air has breathed new life into the former La Muette train station: the Andia restaurant has emerged as a true invitation to a culinary journey to Latin America, offering a unique and vibrant escape for the senses. Nestled in a vast space of over 600 square meters spread across two levels, this majestic venue elegantly blends lush tropical décor with a bold menu, sure to awaken even the most discerning palates. From the Amazon rainforest to the sun-drenched shores of Mexico, Andia offers a sensory experience of rare richness in the capital. Designed as an immersive gourmet stopover, the restaurant captivates as much by its generous space—accommodating up to 300 guests—as by its warm and exotic ambiance. The terrace, a veritable haven of greenery, invites relaxation under a canopy of light amidst the foliage, making every lunch or dinner a true

Latina Escapade The experience never ceases to surprise, with traditional dishes revisited with a modern twist and vibrant flavors, all complemented by a carefully curated musical selection to prolong the sensory journey.

Decor and ambiance: a Latin-inspired setting for a sensory voyage

The magic of Andia begins at the entrance, where the decor plays a key role in awakening the senses and promising a journey to Latin America. Interior designer Laura Gonzales has imagined an extravagant world blending tropical lushness with urban elegance. The setting abounds with warm colors, exotic plants, and works of art that draw on influences from the Andes Mountains, the Amazon rainforest, and Mexican beaches. This abundance creates a setting that is unmissable in the neighborhood. The layout of the spaces leaves nothing to chance: a central area bathed in natural light, a sheltered covered terrace, and a lively outdoor terrace offer visitors the perfect setting to enjoy Flavors from Elsewhere. Raw wood furniture contrasts with touches of colorful modernity, while the carefully curated playlist at the bar, DEEP Fish by ANDIA, transports guests through Latin rhythms from Thursday to Saturday, creating a fusion of taste and music.
