Cuisine: Japanese (or so it claims) Date of Visit: August 27, 2023, 12:00
This establishment recently claims to offer Japanese-ish like cuisine you can find anywhere where in Paris. Usually these establishments would be Chinese but this one is… maybe Indian? Can’t tell.
ATMOSPHERE The décor gives a vague nod to Japanese aesthetics, but it feels more like a mix of unrelated styles. The ambiance was pleasant enough, with dim lighting and neutral colors, but it lacked the refined, minimalist touch typical of authentic Japanese eateries.
FOOD
• APPETIZERS & SIDES:
Miso Soup One of the basics that a Japanese restaurant should nail, but this was disappointing. The soup was overly salty, masking any subtlety that miso usually brings. It felt more like a salty broth than a balanced miso soup. (Rating: 2/5)
Rice How can a Japanese restaurant not get rice right? The rice was bland and clumpy, with none of the fluffiness or slight stickiness you would expect. A major letdown. (Rating: 1.5/5)
Side Salad Generic and uninspired. The salad was basic lettuce and a few sad shreds of carrots… I would say but there was none, drenched in … nothing. (Rating: 2/5)
• MAIN COURSES:
Shirashi I've had a lot of Shirashi in my life, and I’ve never seen slices this thin. It was as if they were trying to save on ingredients by cutting them paper-thin. This took away from the texture and flavor that good fish should have. A very disappointing attempt. (Rating: 1.5/5)
Pokebawl The pokebawl had a decent presentation, but that’s about where the positives end. Again, the rice is a major letdown. (Rating: 2/5)
SERVICE: One of the few saving graces was the punctuality and smiling service. The restaurant opens on time, and they even let customers in 5-10 minutes early, which is a rare courtesy compared to some nearby places. However, while the staff was friendly, there wasn’t much interaction or enthusiasm, almost as if they were aware of the shortcomings.
CONCLUSION: I’m puzzled as to how this place earned a "UBER eats livraison étoilé" rating with 5 stars review from customers. I would maybe understand 3 or even 4 stars because my experience could be too harsh but 5 stars is impossible. The food lacks the authenticity and quality you would expect from a Sino/Japanese restaurant, with bland rice, overly salty miso, and sashimi so thin it felt like a bad joke. While I appreciate that they open on time and offer a bit of extra flexibility, it doesn’t make up for the lackluster dining experience. If they’re serious about presenting themselves as a Japanese eatery, there’s a lot of...
Read moreJ’ai commandé des sushi et Maki avec ma petite amie. Les maki sont mauvais , le poisson n’est pas frais et le saumon a une couleur bizarre. J’ai appelé le restaurant pour obtenir remboursement et ils me disent qu’ils préparent les sushi le moment même alors que ca se voit a l’aspect qu’ils sortent du frigo. Je passe mon temps à commander sur Uber eat et s’il vous plaît , choisissez un autre restaurant si vous tenez à votre santé. Cordialement
Ps / j’ai pris des photos pour ceux que ça intéresse
Pour répondre au message du restaurant :
En définitive, attention avant de commander sur ce restaurant, et n’hésitez pas à revenir vers moi si vous souhaitez les photos...
Read moreJ’en sors. J’ai commandé sur leur site mais n’ai jamais reçu la confirmation. Au bout d’une heure j’y vais et le mentionne au manager qui feint la surprise alors que plusieurs commentaires attestent déjà de ce dysfonctionnement. Ma commande attendait déjà sur le comptoir, sauf aucun effort pour me prévenir. Les boissons sont servies chaudes: super pour de la bière. Au moment de payer le manager essaie de me faire payer 2 euros de plus que sur le site et finit par me faire le même prix avec un air condescendant. Je me rends ensuite compte qu’il n’y a aucune sauce soja et en demande, le manager m’en donne royalement 2 petites pour 52 pcs de sushi et sashimi en précisant qu’il fait un effort car normalement c’est un supplément…. Je rentre chez moi et ouvre les boites c’est une infection, le poisson pue et rien n’a été réfrigéré depuis très longtemps… Résultat: 52 euros gâchés ! À éviter sauf si vous voulez profiter de la salmonelle plutôt...
