L'inconnu sur Paris

Exceptional restaurant. This is my fourth or fifth visit, and each time everything is perfect. From the food and service to the dining room, everything is magnificent in this restaurant. As a chef myself, you are a source of inspiration and respect. Thank you for existing!

Everything is very controlled. Too controlled. The Italian wine list is gradually dwindling, like losing one's hair. Over the years, I've gone from enthusiasm to (overpriced) boredom. It's as if the orchid has lost its bloom. This rigidity is neither Italian nor does it correspond to my idea of ​​Japan. At this point, I wouldn't invite my friends to this cold room anymore, whereas I was so proud to do so a few years ago, when the sun still lit the interior. The talent is still there, without a doubt, but it's self-censoring and withering away. The sadness of this charmless street is contaminating the place. This is the perspective of a longtime friend who wishes the orchid would bloom again.

Excellent restaurant with a fantastic concept. Service was top notch and the chef catered to my allergies. A must visit. 10/10.

Whenever they have lobster pasta, I always order it. It's my favorite pasta. This dish is delicate and light, so even a tired stomach can easily finish it. I recommend making a reservation midway through your trip.

This is a must-visit restaurant when you come to Paris. The food is light and delicate, combining the best of Italian and French cuisine. You can enjoy a relaxing meal in the calm atmosphere.

We were the only ones in the restaurant, so the service was more than excellent. Food was first class, yet one thing was better: the food wine pairing is so so good. Would certainly recommend!

This is my favorite restaurant, and I always make sure to stop by whenever I come to Paris. The sophisticated Italian cuisine prepared by Japanese chef Higaki is an exquisite blend of Italian, French, and Japanese culinary techniques and aesthetic sensibilities, and every dish is truly moving. The delicate seasonings and beautiful presentation are so captivating that it takes your breath away. It's no wonder that the restaurant has won numerous awards in France. This time, I had lunch there, and the rigatoni pasta with a rich, flavorful beef ragu was also delicious. I had a wonderful time, and I'll definitely return.

A wonderful experience! The atmosphere was very peaceful thanks to the layout of the room, where everyone could enjoy their own space without being too close to their neighbors. And the food, which more than exceeded our expectations, was simply exceptional—the mallard was absolutely stunning. The service was simple, but the waitress was incredibly polite and friendly. A pure delight in every sense of the word. Thank you for this lovely evening.

It’s a very small, cute restaurant owned by a Japanese chef and his wife. I made a last-minute lunch reservation by texting them, and they were very accommodating. The food is delicious, and the service was very nice and attentive. It’s like Italian food with a touch of French and Japanese. I highly recommend it! This is an Italian restaurant run by a Japanese chef and his wife. They only serve courses, with no à la carte options. I had the lunch course. Every dish was delicious, and the service was attentive and friendly. I’ll definitely visit again. Thank you!

A real favorite was the dessert, which was fresh, light, delicious, and well-balanced. The service was a little slow, however. But it was very good value for money.
