Closed early without warning

Arrived 50 minutes before closing to be told they closed an hour early due to an evening event. No warning of early closing on website or social media - the waiter threw the website in my partner's face which said nothing about early closing. Others carried on eating, laughing at us for travelling an hour to get there.

Ramen, again!

One of the best vegan ramen in town (even, countrywide)! The place offers traditional Japanese food of great quality, with plenty of flavors. The place is pretty small but has nice vibes with a friendly and helpful staff. I will come back again for sure!

Pros: 100% vegan, excellent food, nice vibes, friendly staff

Ambiance dépaysante et plats originaux


Un café restaurant japonais très agréable. Le curry est excellent mais il pourrait y avoir plus de riz (les gros estomacs auraient encore faim).
J’ai goûté les ramen de ma pote, le bouillon est bon mais trop salé pour moi. En revanche elle a eu du mal à finir.
Côté dessert, les cookies sont bons, le riz au lait était bon mais passez sucré, et le latte sesame pas assez de goût non plus selon moi bien que très joli.

Pros: Atmosphère , Originality & presentation of dishes , Nice staff

Cons: Light portions , Desserts not sweet enough

Bon curry

J'ai pris un curry de saison au potiron avec tofu pané en supplément ; assiette très bonne mais les portions sont très petites, je n'étais pas rassasiée en sortant.

Pros: Végane, bio et de saison, Cuisine japonaise autre que des sushis, Déco sympa

Cons: Petites portions pour le prix

Wonderful place to taste traditional Japanese dishes

Wonderful place to taste traditional Japanese dishes in a magnificent decoration!
Very good service and the dishes are well presented.
I decided to kneel without shoes upstairs to put myself in the typical atmosphere of the land of the rising sun.
The dishes are generous and the desserts very original and not very sweet.
Even the toilets are reminiscent of Myasaki's masterpieces
A restaurant not to be missed in Paris.

Pros: Décoration, Welcome, choices

Mignon et délicieux

Nous avons adoré notre déjeuner dans ce café. Tout était délicieux, le serveur est passionné et très sympathique. Nous avons trouvé les desserts particulièrement bons : cake au sésame noir et glace au kinako délicieux et pas trop sucrés, une révolution en bouche !
Attention le lieu est petit.

Pros: Belle sélection de thes , Personnel accueillant , Pâtisseries originales

Bonne cuisine

Le curry avec supplément tofu est excellent. Le donbury au simili-poisson est bon mais un peu cher pour la quantité d'ingrédient. Le resto a réouvert il y a peu de temps : le service est encore en rodage, c'est un peu lent et quelques petites erreurs. Mais beau geste commerciale pour l'attente. Le parfait glacé est superbe!

Portion was too small

It is a definitely a cute place but too expensive for the portion and menu. I know it is Paris and it is one of the most popular neighborhoods. But still... I felt like I can have another meal after eating here.

Pros: Cute, Authentic Japanese food

Cons: Small portion, Too expensive

Not tasty

Love the decor but the food was not so tasty. I was surprised how Katsu (deep fried veg) over the curry had no seasoning.... bento was just ok as well. Their dessert was quite nice but I really don’t understand why this place is so popular. I am Japanese maybe French prefers different flavoring?

Pros: Nice decor (tatami), Interesting dessert

Cons: Not tasty , Not authentic , A long wait

Japanese vegan restaurant

Really tasty japanese restaurant. You can choose between three typical japanese dishes. I took a ramen, it was really good. The desserts are also really good. The staff is friendly and the place really nice. I recommend to book if you want to be sure to have a seat/table😄(by phone only)

Pros: Japanese food, Friendly staff, Tasty

Japonais authentique

J'y suis allée pour un ramen. Les prix sont assez similaires à un ramen végane au Japon, et le goût aussi : assez riche, bonnes pâtes et plein de saveurs avec les différents légumes. Dommage qu'il n'y aie pas de quoi assaisonner avec des épices comme dans les ramen au Japon, mais c'est peut-être par souci d'hygiène. En tout cas le sdrvice était très rapide, moins de 5 minutes d'attente pour deux ramen !

Le curry et le bento donnent très envie, peut-être à privilégier si vous n'avez pas trop faim car le ramen est difficile à achever !

La déco est sympa avec une mezzanine et des toilettes propres.

N'acceptent pas les tickets resto.

Pros: Several authentically japanese options, Quick and friendly service, Nice atmosphere

Cons: Slightly expensive especially w/ drinks/desserts, Do not accept lunch vounchers.

Absolutely loved it

Such a beautiful atmosphere, and delicious food. I will most definitely come back with friends, who are all eager to discover this place. I recommend reserving a table, takes a second and avoids waiting, the place is very successful ☺️

Good japanese food

The decoration is very nice in every corner of the cafe , with real japanese item. You can see they put a lot of efforts in it!

Service was great, however we booked the tatami tables and when we arrived we couldn't sit in them because other customers were already there.

Food was delicious and really tasty! We chosed the bento and the donburi.

We found that the food portions were too small...For exemple, there were not enough vegetables compared to the rice in the eggplant donburi (only one eggplant slice).

However we're hoping to come back and have a taste to their other meals and desserts !

Authentic and savoury

The plant-based Japanese meal I've been expecting for so long! We had a Katsu Curry and a bento, then a Jelly with green tea with a matcha cookie. We ate on the terrace in a calm street. Kind staff, lovely presentation and decoration inside. A culinary travel that reminisce my friend of her trip to Japan!

Pros: Authentic and unique cuisine, Lovely decoration and presentation, Kind staff

Deliciously simple homemade japanese food

We had the bento and the ramen soup.
The bento consisted of rice, aubergines (japanese-style), a couple of small salads and a few pickles. The ramen had besides the noodles, fried tofu, soybean sprouts, leek, and turnip (or daikon, I don't remember anymore), all in a soymilk broth.

Both dishes were yummy, and the waiting time was normal considering that they were fully booked. However, I did not find them nourishing enough. It felt to me as if something else was missing in the plate.
So it would've been great if they had some appetizers in their menu.

We also had the lemon/yuzu tart, and the flan with sakura sauce.
They were also tasty; but for some reason my tart did not come with cream on top, as other tarts I saw in the social media on previous days.
The flan could have been a little bit larger for the price; but the sakura sauce was delicious!

Overall, I think it's good simple homemade japanese food, but it's just not what I prefer.

In any case, please give it a go!

Pros: tasty, atmosphere, location

Cons: not a good value

Very good

The food is great and the place is absolutely lovely ! I tried the curry with the most delicious oven-baked « tofu » nuggets I’ve ever had. The Japanese flan was also delicious. Julia, the owner is a gem. You should definitely try it out !

Pros: Good foods, Beautiful place, Nice staff

Finally!

Yeah! A Japanese vegan restaurant/salon de thé in Paris, finally (I know there's another recent fully restaurant but this one got my heart first)!

I was the very first customer, as they opened today, June 24th. A few announced dishes wasn't available, but there were lots of other choices. And there was a lot of people waiting outside for their turn. Real success!

I took the rice-curry and the bento. Rice on both dishes, but it was great anyway.

I do recommand this restaurant (last service at 3pm), and certainly the salon de thé too.

Pros: Vegan Japanese restaurant, very rare in France, Kind staff, the decoration is very sweet, Near Bastille
