Takara: Traditional Japanese food in Paris.
It doesn’t really matter if Paris lacks good Japanese restaurants as long as there are a few that you can always count on to deliver the kind of food that you are looking for: extra fresh fish, great sake, perfectly fried tempura, delicious meat and fancy appetizers. Takara in Paris is one of Europe’s oldest Japanese restaurant and has been among France’s best one thousand tables for many years. Aside from their consistent, excellent food, what I love about Takara is that they make me feel like I’m not in Paris. The restaurant is very peaceful; the absence of music makes it easy to speak softly and hear one another. You can walk out of Takara feeling satiated as well as rested! Last but not least, the service is great. Here are a few dishes to make your mouth water: whelk wasabi (7€), spicy sauteed cuttlefish (12€), breaded oysters (24€), tempura assortment (18€-24€), sauteed foie gras nigiri (10€/2 pieces), sashimi assortment (20€-28€), shabu shabu (beef “hot pot”, 49€ for 2). They also offer lunch (obento) and dinner menus.
