IZA BY MOLOKO

In an intimate atmosphere subdued by the red lights of Pigalle, the cocktail and Japanese tapas bar Iza stands out as the new address for Parisian night owls! Iza by Moloko is a clubstaurant in Paris where you can eat and party until the early morning. It is a bar and lounge whose concept is centered around the Japanese notion of “ukiyo” which can be translated as “living the moment, detached from the bothers of life”. The club is famous for its red light, vintage furniture, and unique nightlife, the trendy Pigalle district has been the ideal place for outings with friends or colleagues. It’s time to check it out! 

Iza is the little sister of Moloko, a famous restaurant bar in the Pigalle district. Keeping the same recipe as its big brother, the establishment offers great classics of Asian street food revisited with European inspirations. Inspired by traditional Izakayas’ philosophy, IZA is a relaxed cocktail bar offering a carefully curated saké selection, original cocktails mixing eastern and western influences, and a super-charged atmosphere. Open every night until the early morning, IZA turns into an underground nightclub featuring hip-hop DJ sets from both upcoming and established artists.  It serves as a kind of a mood board, with food, lots of cocktails, and the general vibe of the club.

Iza by Moloko immerses you in an intimate atmosphere dimmed with red lights. In this place, all dishes are prepared and presented in such a way as to be tasted and shared with friends, respecting Japanese and Chinese tradition, small Torizara dishes, to be enjoyed by others, dishes that take guests on a straight trip to Asia, non-stop. Finally, once dinner time passes, the tables disappear as the bar fills up to dance the night away. 

If you are going out in Pigalle and are looking for a place to eat, drink and listen to music, then the IZA Pigalle will undoubtedly be the ideal place for your night trip. And precisely, on the cocktail side, the restaurant bar sets the bar very high, offering a menu of hallucinating creations. To give you two examples, we recommend the Gari Heal cocktail based on Tequila, pineapple, lime, and ginger beer. Or, the Furi-Gana cocktail that mixes Gin, honey, Verjus, and Sake. That is amazing!

In addition to its cuisine and succulent menu, the place offers DJ sets every evening to accompany your meals. Music is one of the core elements of IZA’s concept. Every week their team books DJs and artists, both promising and established to perform from 9 pm until the end of the night with a musical atmosphere where you fidget until the end of the night to soul, funk, black, vintage, and hip hop music. At IZA Pigalle, everything has been thought out so that your visit is a real moment of sharing and experience. 

The only guideline is as quoted by the door girl: “Dress like you knew your crush will be there tonight” 

And for the rest, we’ll let you discover it with your friends or colleagues when you arrive at the IZA, it’s totally worth it.
