Restaurant Furniture

A restaurant is judged in the first ten seconds. Before the menu, guests read the room: the comfort of a banquette, the warmth of a table top, the way light falls on a bar. SOLIA designs and manufactures furniture that creates that first impression — and keeps it after thousands of services.

From Michelin-starred dining rooms to beach clubs on the Riviera, we work with restaurateurs, chefs, architects and hospitality groups to create seating programmes that are beautiful, comfortable for long dinners and robust enough for intensive daily use.

Every project is built around your operations: table layouts that optimise covers, upholstery that cleans easily, finishes that resist wine, sun and salt, and a delivery schedule planned around your opening date.

What we create

• banquettes, booths and built-in seating
• dining chairs, armchairs and bar stools
• solid wood, stone and marble table tops
• bar counters, back bars and host stands
• beach club loungers, daybeds and parasols
• terrace furniture for year-round service

How we work

Materials that tell your story

Each restaurant has its own identity. We source oak, walnut and teak, natural stone, brass and hand-woven rattan, and upholster with velvets, bouclé, leathers and outdoor performance fabrics. Samples are presented on site so you can see them in your own light.

Selected realisations

Atmospheres we create

From concept to opening night

1. Visit of the space and study of the floor plan
2. Seating layout optimised for covers and service
3. Prototypes of chairs, banquettes and tables
4. Production planned backwards from the opening date
5. Delivery, installation and final adjustments on site

Comfort that keeps guests longer

Seat depth, back angle, foam density, table height: small details decide whether guests linger over dessert or ask for the bill. We test every seat on a prototype with your team, then produce the whole programme with the same comfort, from the first chair to the last.

Details guests remember

A hand-stitched leather banquette, a marble table edge that feels cool under the hand, a brass foot rail at the bar: these details are what guests photograph and talk about. We prototype them first, so you can sit, touch and adjust before the full production starts.

• Prototypes of key pieces before production
• Hand-finished leather, wood and metal
• Custom colours matched to your branding
• Matching furniture for terrace and interior

Designed for daily service

Restaurant furniture lives a hard life: dragged chairs, spilled wine, daily cleaning. We reinforce joints, protect feet and edges and select performance fabrics, so your dining room looks as good on its thousandth service as on opening night.
