Savannah Café

Private hire

Book the whole restaurant on weekdays From 25 guests, the entire dining room is yours: a one-of-a-kind setting in the heart of the Latin Quarter, home-made Lebanese cuisine and dedicated service.

A décor found nowhere else

Yellow walls covered in curios, red booths, jazz standards playing softly — a visual identity unique in the neighbourhood, loved by our guests for forty years.

Our story

A Latin Quarter institution since 1985 Founded in 1985 by Richard Sahlani in a former stonemason’s workshop, Savannah Café has never followed trends. Home-made Lebanese and Mediterranean cuisine, an unusual décor, a warm atmosphere and a sharp soundtrack built around jazz standards. Forty years on, the house is still run by its founder, in the heart of the Latin Quarter, steps from the Panthéon and the Sorbonne.
