Dined here on business last evening and here's a review of the two set meals I ordered, chicken katsu and chirashi sushi, both served with miso soup and two sides of the day, duck steak slices with pickled cucumber and slow cooked pumpkin. The sides were really good and authentic. Prices were pretty reasonable by Paris standards.
The chicken katsu was really good. Near perfectly cooked. Can't fault it in any way. Order this if raw seafood isn't for you.
The chirashi sushi was good though some of the cuts were out of shape. The rice was the deal. Cooked really well. Overall, this dish is modified to maybe suit the local preference. Such as slices raw onions.
Desserts included were ice cream and fruit salads.
Now, for the service. Come here early, about 7pm and you get full attention of the waiters. This place gets really busy after 7:30pm. I was here on a Tuesday and it was full house. Don't expect the type of service you'll get at a Michelin star restaurant. Dine here if you love good Japanese cuisine. Will I dine here...

Yesterday at lunch time, my friends and I ordered it, as usual, and I found a strand of hair deeply ingrained in rice, which was absolutely disgusting. I notified a server, he brought my dish back to the kitchen, came back to me with the hair-polluted dish, and asked if I really wanted it replaced, instead of making apologies and giving me reasonable accounts of what was going on. Who would want to keep eating the food with a hair ingrained within?! In the end, I paid full price without having anyone in the staff or management coming to me to apologise. Deeply disappointed by lax hygienic control, poor service...
Read moreI would say just ok. Kind staff and pretty quick service buy disappointing food. Prices are relatively high for the quality/quantity served in my opinion. I requested a salmon/tuna only cirashi bowl, I had to pay extra for it (2 fish kinds costs more than a bowl of mixed variety which is odd), the bowl arrived full of ginger, onion, weed and radish bits that made it colourful (fine) but only maybe 8 pieces of varied cuts of fish - some of them discoloured, some of them thick, some of them long. Just didn't seem quite right - as if it had been recomposed with remnants of cuts - all together not appetising. Maybe just bad luck with the choice :) but generally not...
