Gault&Millau's review 2026

Everything is under control in this Japanese salon, where connoisseurs appreciate the counter to be in direct contact with the making of the virtuosos of the knife. Yannick Alléno, after delegating his first chef Yasunari, has reconstituted a team of champions with Katsutoshi Tomizawa as sushi master, and the experience remains a formidable plunge into the Rising Sun and a great moment. The full omakase at €360 is a great ride for ferocious appetites, but the "lighter" version at €240 is an excellent compromise. A series of appetizers and starters, with yellowtail and daikon, vegetable broth and noodles, shellfish, cockles, varnish, razor clams and white meat, situate the quality of the proceedings before the parade of sushi, lukewarm rice, a hint of wasabi, aromatics or herbs, dosed according to the product: sea bass, horse mackerel (chives, ginger, lemon), trout, combawa tuna, tuna again (otoro, the noblest part), a little digression with an excellent broth extracted from langoustine elderberry tomato before resuming the farandole, red mullet colonnata, cabbage and tuna, Japanese yellowtail, chive triggerfish, pagre kombu, otoro maki style.. It's brilliant, enticing and served in the traditional way, accompanied by perfectly chosen sakes, teas or wines suggested by an expert sommelier. After a transitional broth of poultry, beef and dashi, we conclude with desserts as light as they are sharp: strawberry celery fennel, rhubarb shiso, apple kiwi wasabi, and the astonishing mascarpone sea lettuce cold brew..
