  1. It’s no secret that Parisian chef Cyril Lignac has a weakness for Japanese cuisine, as proved by his establishment of the Le Bar des Prés, well known by Parisian foodies. The menu will have you wide-eyed: goma-ae with fresh green veggies, lobster from Brittany and a sesame cream; crispy cakes, crab with madras curry, avocados, and green lime (an Instagram star); sashimi of yellowtail or red tuna, maki of jellied eel, matcha chiffon cake, chocolate fondue…. Not to mention the cocktails, complete with a Tokyo Garden, (Hendrick’s gin, shizo leaf, sake, yuzu, lychee juice) which awakens the senses, and a Summer Julip (Bache Gabrielsen cognac, peach puree, fresh verbena, Montenegro) which calms them.


    The restaurant is decorated with exposed piping, wicker lights, a long backlit wooden bar, and peacock feather pattern benches immersed in semi-darkness, which plays it nicely did-you-see-me-as-I-see-you. It leans on the bar, with a cozy ambience. The waiter and service are good.

  5. On the ground floor of the Pavillon Ledoyen, L’Abysse is the sushi restaurant of the 3-star Michelin chef Yannick Alleno. Entrusting the reigns to chef Yasunari Okazaki, everything is prepared in true Japanese style while respecting the greatest rules of the art. From the fishing techniques of Ike-Jime to the maturation of the fish or the precise choice of rice, nothing is left to chance by this master of sushi.


    A distinct know-how attitude combined with refined French technique makes for a truly epic tasting menu (cream of sweet almonds with a sprinkle of salt, shark fin soup, tofu with green peas, trout roe, and then of course the finely cut sashimi which precedes the next course of six sublime sushi rolls, whose recipes evolve according to the chef’s mood. The restaurant also has a plethora of desserts, all of which are equally delicious: light cheesecake roasted peaches with matcha, strawberries in a sugar crust with seaweed,... This place is great to сelebrate your anniversary. The waitstaff is professional that's what makes this spot so nice. The divine decor and charming ambiance let visitors feel relaxed here.

  6. Blueberry is a creative, unconventional sushi restaurant, with bright pop colours on the walls and on your plate. The mood is set by the house cocktails – like the ‘Dawn over Tokyo’ – that mix well-known flavours like Martini or Saké with less familiar tastes like that of purple-leaved shisho. The results are fresh, light and fruity. Blueberry has a fun atmosphere and a meal that's a conversation point.


    Makis (rolled sushi) is Blueberry’s great speciality. They're served in sixes, each more weirdly named than the last (Les Trublions, Rackam le Rouge, Iroquois, Transsibérien, etc.). They are elaborate, well thought through, and unusual – not for sushi purists. The menu also has the Unagiii, an assortment of grilled eel, prawn tempura, avocado, cucumber and dried tuna arranged in a wreath studded with sesame seeds. The crunch of the prawn matches that of the cucumber, while the eel brings flavour. They also have the Ponyo, the sesame crêpe, a nice variant on the standard seaweed version, and were very impressed by the execution of the sesame sauce. The same goes for the rest of the sushi, which offers some great combinations – prawn and mango, salmon and coriander – finished with excellent sauces. In the izakaya part of the menu (traditionally, snacks to go with drinks), there are things like spicy salmon tartare with flying fish egg. At dessert, there's a selection of iced mochi rice cakes in vanilla, green tea, blueberry, and cherry blossoms flavours.

  7. Nakagawa is a Japanese venue in the middle of Belleville’s Chinatown, which draws in passers-by with gentle aromas of grilled eel, miso soup, and tempura. Inside, there's a small room with a view onto the Eglise Saint-Jean-Baptiste and a few seats at the bar facing the chef. On the lunch menu are basic set menus (sushi-soup-salad-rice) from €11-€15, and some more complex ones that go up to around €20 ahead.


    The sushi is seriously high quality, the salmon and prawns firm and fresh (with the wasabi already layered between the rice and fish). There are also some hot breaded dishes like pork tonkatsu and chicken kara ague, accompanied by things like fried tofu, pickled cucumber, or natto (sour and sticky fermented soya). You can eat with Japanese beer, rice or jasmine tea (€1.50 for endless free refills) or an excellent fruity sake served hot by the glass (€2.50 for 5cl), pichet or bottle. To finish up, a few desserts featuring classic Japanese flavours: cakes and ice cream flavoured with green tea or red beans. Affordable and delicious, Nakagawa is a very pleasant surprise.

  8. This tiny sushi bar, Le Bar à sushi Izumi, has not more than 20 seats punching far above its weight in proportion to its size. It quickly made a name for itself when it opened in 2011, educating Parisian diners about the delights of fatty tuna, eel and wagyu beef.


    The availability of the tuna depends on the market, but the other two-star products are always on the menu. The eel arrives still smoking, perfectly grilled, swiped with a delicious sweet sauce then arranged in a chirachi bowl with fish, omelette and prawns on a warm bed of rice and sesame. Sushi and maki are also on the menu, all prepared by the masterful Japanese chef. Thick slices of colourful, flavour-filled fish signal the really good stuff. Then the wagyu beef, with its remarkable texture and nutty flavour. Served as tataki (a sort of half-cooked carpaccio) or as sushi, it almost feels like fish in the mouth. Have it with one of the sakes – a fruity Tatenokawa, perhaps, a flavourful Muraoka, an intense Kenbishi, or a taster of all three. None of this comes cheap, but it’s the right price for the quality.

  9. Toritcho is a real izakaya, one of those bars of the people where customers nibble on tapas-style small plates while having a drink, and one of the oldest and most authentic Japanese restaurants in Paris. Old beer posters, lucky figurines, mock swords and rackets from the traditional game hagoita decorate the walls: madame works the till while monsieur takes a relaxed yet efficient approach to service.


    On the varied menu, you can find yakitori made from chicken meat, liver, gizzards and skin, or from vegetables that you can order salted or in a sweet and sour sauce. Then irreproachably fresh sushi, light and airy tempura, raw tuna, shredded seaweed, sunomono de wakame with calamari, octopus and prawn, or even agedashi-dofu – fried tofu served in a dashi bouillon. Nothing is particularly well presented, but everything is good. It's busy and popular with Parisians of all stripes, especially at weekends, and in the early evening particularly the Japanese clientele stop by – they'll buy a bottle or something which then waits for them on each visit, a real izakaya tradition.

  10. Philippe Starck’s latest venture in Paris is a rock-Japanese outfit occupying a 500m2 space just off the Champs-Elysées. Miss Kô has been set up like a narrow Chinatown street, bustling and colourful at night, with open kitchens at the end where chefs work away beneath an array of suspended works and neon lights. Giant paper lanterns are everywhere, forests of umbrellas hung over the tables, and there's a 26-meter table made up of a mosaic of screens, across which a dragon turns somersaults. It’s permanent visual chaos, which can become wearing. If you want something a bit easier on the eyes, go for one of the dining room tables or the comfortable sofas near the exterior terrace.


    All this décor excitement doesn’t take away from the fact that you have come here to eat. There are a dozen dishes, of which the star is a beef tataki at €29, which is a sort of Japanese carpaccio with teriyaki sauce, fried shiitake mushrooms and purée perfumed with ginger. The ‘black salmon & Kô’ burger at €19 is equally alluring, the bread coloured black with squid ink and garnished with avocado, mizuna, gravlax and tempura-fried green beans. Other classic dishes revisited by chef Fabrice Monot include bo bun, tartare, salads and pad thai. For lighter meals, creative sushi (8 for approximately €12) goes perfectly with a cocktail (classic or based on sake or soshu) or bubble tea. The bar with hip DJs and the terrace in summer are places to see and be seen.
