MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

One Star: High quality cooking

At this discreet Japanese restaurant, hidden behind a large door that you have to knock on to gain access and which almost seems to be a “secret” address given its scarce signage, the concept is based around much more than a working philosophy as the skill of the chef is viewed as a veritable art form here. In this resolutely contemporary space, you’ll find a somewhat surprising wood-fired oven in the centre of the dining room, large fish-maturing cabinets, an impressive U-shaped counter where you can watch the culinary action unfold, and more conventional tables for those who prefer a more intimate meal. The cuisine of chef Hideki Matsuhisa, which brings together Japanese techniques and Mediterranean ingredients, always focuses on well-conceived pairings and a hint of creativity and is based around tasting menus that vary solely in their number of courses. We can highly recommend the Kaki dish – an oyster served on a bed of chopped onion with a Wagyu beef jus. The finishing touches to many of the dishes are added in front of you!
