Kibo No Ki — Restaurant in Paris

I wanted to put zero stars! Worst ramen experience of my life. Run away so fast from this place. I know ramen..I lived in Japan for 20 years. They brought me the ramen bowl with oil so much sitting already on top, it’s already building coagulation. Disgusting! I can only blame myself to endure eating that OIL RAMEN they served, and then pay them for it. Tasted nothing like chicken ramen, I am not even exaggerating. It was oil ramen. The broth..Awful. The noodle..Shame! Like noodles from an instant noodle pack. I am not even kidding. The toppings!? Smallest Narutomaki and karaage pieces I have ever seen!! This place is a joke. At 14€, I felt robbed. And I cannot make this up..We felt really bloated and indigestion after eating here, like I ate 2 fast-food burgers, that’s how bad the food is here. Ramen is not fast food if done right and masterfully. They skipped the correct process broth making for sure, because not only it had no taste..It made me unwell in the stomach. I have never been so appalled with bad dining experience. The beer was warm! Even the drinks, they didn’t get right. The EBI TEMPURA, is not tempura. They should put EBI KATSU on the menu, because what you see in the photo is a katsu. Not a tempura, not the same thing.

I was so horrified, I politely expressed my disappointment and review directly to the staff when I was paying 55€ for 2 persons for a disgusting dinner experience. I asked if they had qualified cooks for this ramen joint, and all they said was he went to « ramen school ». Umm ok. Not good enough. The owners should be ashamed of themselves. They paid so much obviously PR on Instagram to make the shop look cool, but not investing on the food they serve. Bad noodle, bad broth, smallest toppings I have ever seen on a ramen. Seriously.

The whole thing seemed like a joke. This place is a joke, I’m sorry for the lack of nicety on my review but this is how this place made me feel. I’m traumatized..We were very much so excited to have a good ramen being that we miss it from Japan, living now in France for 2 years. The reviews were high at 4.7 so we came with expectations. We were shaking our heads the entire time we were forcing ourself to eat at least half of the bowl coz we were hungry from touring Paris whole day. Now I know better, and not endure eating bad food from a well reviewed place next time. Just get up and leave. Coz now we were traumatized with what we endured.

DON’T WAST YOUR MONEY AND CALORIES HERE. They invested on good area to put their restaurant and good marketing on socials and maybe even fake reviews, but IT IS BAD RAMEN. Beer...

Les points + : le restaurant est vraiment super beau, la décoration a vraiment été mis en avant le prix très raisonnable pour le quartier l'activité principale est très attractive : vous pouvez essayer des kimonos sur place et prendre des photos dans de beaux décors

Les points - : les plats sont bons mais rien d'exceptionnel, on peut en trouver des biens meilleures aux mêmes prix tous les plats arrivent en même temps, donc si on mange nos entrées chaudes, les nouilles se "gonflent" et deviennent pâteuse et si on mange les nouilles, les entrées se refroidissent rapidement les serveurs sont soit pas très dégourdis, soit pas très accueillants pas très dégourdis, car ils ont oublié de venir prendre notre commande, oublié des boissons qu'on a du réclamer plusieurs fois, pour au final l'avoir une fois qu'on a fini nos plats, sans compter qu'il n'y a pas de serveurs à l'étage donc il faut à chaque fois descendre pour les appeler et pas très accueillant parce que leur activité principale qui est d'enfiler des kimonos est un fiasco niveau service, tout d'abord une serveuse vient vous aider à mettre le kimono que vous avez choisi, mais elle est extrêmement désagréable, cela se voit qu'elle est agacée de vous habiller, quand vous mettez ne serait ce qu'un peu de temps à comprendre ce qu'elle vous dit, elle vous tourne elle-même de manière sèche, Les vestiaires ont une odeur de litière à chat et surtout les photos que vous prendrez sont dans les salles de repas donc parmi les clients ! Il n'y a pas de place pour bien prendre les photos alors qu'il n'y avait que très peu de clients à ce moment là. Mais surtout les serveurs vous dévisagent comme si vous étiez des nuisibles, même à un moment donné un serveur passe à côté de nous en soufflant, on sentait que nous gênions alors qu'il n'y avait que 3clients à ce moment là, si c'est pour accueillir les clients comme ça, ne proposez pas cet activité

Bref jolie mais service lamentable (À savoir, nous...

The food was decent and reasonably priced. The biggest issue was the customer service. We had a reservation and had to remind them twice that we didn’t get seated yet. After that it was almost 30 minutes until someone took our order. Unfortunately they completely forgot about us and we had to almost stand up and wave our arms around for the waitress to realize she never took our order. In order to pay we just went inside because the waitress was too busy most of the time to even notice we were finished. If you decide to go here- be ready to either wait in a long queue or to fight for your...
