Japanese restaurant in Bordeaux offering sushi, makis, salted plum tofu tempura or pan-fried fresh liver.
Just another Japanese restaurant, you might say? No doubt, but this one has an approach to traditional cuisine that goes beyond simple sushi, maki and other Japanese fare, even if the lunch and dinner formulas remain classic. The chef revisits basic recipes to give them more depth. For starters, the tempura of salted plum tofu, grated daikon and ginger is a small tsunami of flavors. And what can we say about the pan-fried fresh liver on shrimp tempura rolls topped with beef tataki?

This small Japanese restaurant in the Barrier de Pessac neighborhood 15-mins from Bordeaux center is very nice. While the chef makes sushi, he has many other very flavorful dishes. I especially like the Salmon Tataki, salmon served over baby greens with shaved daikon radish and sesame sauce. The Donburi (different protein options available) with roasted root vegetables are also nice. All fried dishes are expertly prepared such that they aren’t oily. Excellent service, minimalist interior with nice jazz music, and very affordable.

Ce petit restaurant japonais situé dans le quartier Barrier de Pessac à 15 minutes du centre de Bordeaux est très agréable. Le chef prépare des sushis, mais il propose aussi beaucoup d'autres plats très savoureux. J'ai particulièrement aimé le Tataki de saumon, du saumon servi sur des jeunes pousses avec du radis daïkon râpé et de la sauce au sésame. Les Donburi (différentes protéines disponibles) accompagnés de légumes racines rôtis sont également délicieux. Tous les plats frits sont préparés de manière experte et ne sont pas gras. Excellent service, intérieur minimaliste avec une belle musique de jazz, et très abordable.
