We had a great time eating here. The food was fun and flavorful. The staff was engaging and asking us to guess what the ingredients were which was like a fun little game. The wine pairings were great, but 6 glasses in 2 hours is not for the weak. Docked half a point because we had to remind our waiter about the pairing a couple of times. Rounded up to 5 stars from 4.5
Great value for a set menu of French Korean cuisine. I would recommend this if you are looking for a dinner spot around Oberkampf. We experienced a bit of hiccup with one of the dishes but, I’d be lying if everything else was actually to our liking.
We had heard about this restaurant and were curious about the concept of a menu découverte. It turned out to be a dining experience that was as surprising as it was satisfying. You don't get a menu but have to guess the ingredients that are unveiled by the staff after finishing the course. Seafood played a big role throughout the menu with each preparation showcasing freshness and an interesting balance of textures and flavors. There was also a Korean-style pork belly that was meltingly tender, rich without being heavy, and beautifully spiced. Big shout-out also to the sommelier. He was very attentive and the wine pairings he offered were exceptional!!! Everyone else was really friendly, too. Big recommendation from our side!
Much lower than expectation. Looked forward to the well known Korean- French cuisine before the reservation. However the experience was disappointing, the guessing part should be more interesting and elevating the connection with the cuisine however we can not read the passion from the staff even we were interested in getting know more about ingredients and stories, staffs ignored us. The serving quality was poor and unpleasant, spitted out dishes without apologies, whipped cream and sorbet melted when serving to the table. Design of Camembert cheese with yuzu marmalade is the most ridiculous, unsatisfying and unnecessary dish that I could expect from a Chef Pierre Sang.
Confusing and disappointing dining experience. It’s supposed to be a restaurant that trains their staff to explain the food—but not even knowing what they’re serving feels pretty unprofessional. First issue: food allergy. When we were first seated, they asked about allergies. I told them I’m allergic to mustard. Later, when the second course was served by a different waiter, they asked again about allergies. I repeated “mustard,” and they said it was fine—so we started eating. My friend had already taken a bite when they suddenly came back and took both our plates away without a word. At that point, I assumed the dish must’ve had mustard in it. But then they just returned the exact same plates and told us it was okay to eat. Like… what kind of service is that? Second issue: the vegan mix-up. We never said either of us was vegan. But when the main course came, they brought one beef dish and one tofu dish. We were confused, but the staff only explained after we’d finished eating—because that’s apparently when they choose to explain what’s on the plate. So we asked: why did we get one meat and one vegan dish? They said one of the waiters thought we said one of us was vegan. We never said anything like that… Maybe put that energy into remembering my allergy instead? They offered us another steak to make up for it, but we declined. With food this mid and service this bad, I’d rather grab a kebab afterwards. One last thing about how they explain the food. Imagine if the food were actually good and we finished everything on our plates—there’d be nothing left for them to point at. That’s how they explain the food: after you’re done eating, pointing at scraps. I don’t like wasting food, so my plate was clean. Luckily for the waiters, my friend leaves whatever she doesn’t like, which gave them something to point at. That kind of sums up how mediocre the food was. And yet, they carry themselves with this strange overconfidence, like they’re serving something groundbreaking. If you’re going to act like your food is next-level, maybe make sure it’s actually good—and that your service doesn’t undo the whole experience.
