ONA Restaurant Gastronomique

The first vegan restaurant in France to be awarded a Michelin star!



The ONA (Non-animal Origin) project started because of how fed up we were of seeing junk food, industrial food (animal and vegetable) everywhere and of our will to refuse animal exploitation in all its forms. More than a gourmet restaurant, ONA aims to be a place of life where respect for people, nature and animals is at the center of all concerns.



I chose to create a cuisine which reflects my character and values, avant-garde in a multitude of aspects. I believe in plants! For me, it is undoubtedly the cuisine of the future because it meets all our needs effectively: ecology, biology, ethics, human and health. With the ever increasing popularity of veganism and ethical eating, ONA invites its customers to engage and participate in its way of life. This plant-based approach raises awareness and disproves clichés and preconceived notions (lack of nutrients, tasteless cuisine, too expensive and intended for a certain audience only). It is a natural cuisine, elegant, refined and subtle, with an unrivaled range of flavors, textures and colors.



Pythagoras said: "The Earth gives abundant riches and peaceful food. It offers us meals that are not stained with blood or murder." Like a painter's palette, this cuisine allows you to develop your creativity endlessly, thanks to the varied tastes, scents, appearances, textures and colors present among the multitude of plant life on our planet (seeds, nuts, oil seeds, legumes, cereals, algae, fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, aromatic herbs, spices, wild plants, flowers).

From the food source to the customer's plate, this is the ONA Project: explorer of taste, of people and techniques, guardian of quality and ethics, a solution for a better world.
