The Best Japanese Restaurants in Paris

L'Abysse (2 Michelin Star) is a sushi counter located in the historic Pavillon Ledoyen (1779) of Yannick Alléno.The talented team of Sushi Master Yasunari Okazaki gave us an Omakase that was beautifully orchestrated. Exquisite tea and a staggering wine list are here along with some rare Sake (we had some 🍶) There's also an installation by Japanese street artist Tadashi Kawamata made up of thousands of wooden chopsticks! This restaurant will not disappoint if you're looking to be somewhere special!🍣

A Japanese handrolls standing bar by Takuya Watanabe, the chef of the fantastic Jin Sushi Bar.Kaïto serves creative handrolls with fabulous products. Some recipes with French or Italian influences are surprising and fun.It’s a bit expensive but the quality of the products explains the price.Great address for a quick and delicious lunch in the Parisian Rîve Gauche

Japanese quick-service restaurant serving udon noodles and tempura.Sanukiya, in the 2nd district near Opéra, is a really cool place, I love it. Their specialty is udon, the big tick noodles. I usually go with the Hiyashi tempura udon, which has vegetables and big shrimp in tempura and you pour a very umami sauce on top of it. Another favorite is the kakuni, a pork belly that's slowly cooked and they serve it with hard boiled egg in a sauce with a little bit of mustard on the side.

A real culinary journey to Japan while in Paris ! The best authentic Japanese Omakase in Paris. Chefs Kino & Takubo will literally transport you into a gastronomic world of traditional and creative dishes before serving you sushi that will melt in your mouth.

Kyoto-inspired flavors, great selection of champagne and sakeA few steps from the Royal Palace. Chef Daisuke Endo offers a la carte for lunch and dinner tasting menu that combines sashimi of melting tuna, vegetable tempura, mackerel sushi, caramelized duck, unagi. Great selection of the finest sakes.

The experience of authentic Chakaiseki has landed in Paris.Chakaiseki or tea-kaiseki originated in Japan around 500 years ago. It is traditionally served as a welcome to special guests, as a prelude to a tea ceremony. At Chakaiseki Akiyoshi, the menu created by Yuichiro (who previously worked at Hyotei in Kyoto) respects the aesthetic of traditional kaiseki and features seasonal dishes of the highest quality.The atmosphere feels almost spiritual, and the tableware is of high aesthetic value, made using precious materials such as hinoki wood and ceramics brought from Japan.

One of the most aesthetically pleasing and cozy restaurants, serving a mix of Japanese and French cuisine in an artistic manner. The cocktail pairing was quite impressive, as it perfectly matched the meal.
