Japontori sur Lyon

22/02/2026: I was a little disappointed with my experience at this restaurant, which had been recommended to me by friends. The place is nice and the welcome was pleasant, but I'd been told it was a "semi-gastronomic" restaurant… In principle, having several courses, yes, but that's where it ends. We started with a mesclun salad with salmon (or tuna). The presentation could definitely be improved: it looked a bit like a cafeteria, even though the fish itself was delicious. The sushi and maki were served in very generous portions and were really very good. We took them to go. However, it was a shame that we were told to hurry up and put them in the fridge when they could have waited until the end of the meal before giving them to us. We finished with sesame ice cream. A minor issue at the end of the service: the waitress piled up the soy sauces, which splashed the table… and I even got some in my ice cream. Frankly, it kind of ruined the end of the meal. The restaurant offers quality products, but there are clearly areas for improvement regarding the service.
