NAKATANI RESTAURANT in Paris

"The atmosphere and service was excellent. I wouldn’t say the food were super tasty but it was an interesting experience!"

"Exciting innovative food and good wine list. 5 courses plus a number of entrees. Went for lunch and thought the 85 euro menu was pretty good value. We were the only guests so had a Michelin starred chef to ourselves."

"Came here for lunch, which was a delightful experience. All the courses were beautifully prepared and very tasty. The restaurant can be easy to miss when passing on the street, but definitely a must visit if you get the chance. Highly recommend"

"Despite it is quite expensive, yet the food quality deserves the price! This is a private kitchen where the chef decides the menu for you! Well, it is goox to have a try!!"

"very good food by an excelent chef. Waitres seemed a bit bored and one out of two would reject to talk any english that wasn't very helpfull. Would go again though."

"#23 cf MichelinStarsChallenge list A very French Japanese chef Amongst the Japanese chef with a star that we have in Paris, he is one more of the French side. And yet, the name he decided to put on his restaurant could not be more Japanese (it’s his name). That’s interesting because the competition (and there’s a lot of Japanese with a star) are using French name with a more exotic cuisine. So it’s French cuisine with a perfect execution and some personal notes from the chef (very elegant, so little touches, etc..). You ll have a great meal. Also I do appreciate when the chef makes an effort to say goodbye (or come to the tables etc…) it’s a nice touch and not everyone does that. Great for couples. Possible for business lunch and friends. Well deserved star. You’ll have an experience. The mood: I’ll go for a discreet but classy style (Paul Neuman). It’s ok to wear a costume but you don’t have to. Personally I do enjoy, so I d wear a “casual” one. Edit: I went back after a year. I recommend to try the Wagyu as only few have it. It is definitely a well deserved star. I thought it was more in between France and Japan this time. Especially with the “terre/mer” with foie gras. Note that it has only 4 tables."

"We had a wonderful dining experience at Nakatani. The 6 course meal was unique, delicious, and memorable. The dining room is simple yet refined and intimate. We had a large party of 8 but the chef and server were very accommodating. From course to course the dishes were beautifully prepared and the flavors exceeded our expectations."

"Superb cuisine and service at a reasonable price. Exceptional use of seasonal produce. Everything about the meal is expertly balanced."
