Kiyo Aji

Not sure why this place doesn’t have many reviews. As a tourist in Paris, this quaint unassuming place made my day. Best sushi place I have been to here. Other sushi places similar to this are much more pricey. Hopefully this review helps them get some publicity Small things that made me really like this place: 1. Very clean restroom 2. English friendly and very welcoming 3. Never rushed me (stayed two hours) 4. The staff was incredibly kind Food: 1. There were some amazing fish I have never tasted in my life (been to several hundred sushi restaurants) 2. Flat fish and sea eel was almost too much flavor to comprehend 3. Extremely refined and complex 4. Portion is a lot (even for an American standard) In the US, you would end up paying above $200-$300 for this quality. The menu is 115€ which includes 3 starter plates, 15 nigiri, 2 desserts. I didn’t take photos of all of the nigiri but I think this place is one of my favorite places around. It reminds me of Uchi if you know the reference but just one single table top. Chef is very personable. Extremely clean, quick and very tasty. I am not sure why this doesn’t have many reviews yet but hopefully this helps! This is a hidden gem. Cons: 1. I prefer mostly raw fish and the chef is searing some of the items, though probably you can request him not to. 2. If you have a group, probably best to call ahead because there aren’t many seats. 3. Short evening working hours

We are so thrilled to have stumbled on this experience only steps from the Terrass Hotel. Our food experience in Paris was exceptional including a 3 star Michelin restaurant. This night was special as well and we will return every time in Paris. Chef was communicative and engaging as were all of the tastings. Wonderful and plentiful dishes and sushi, we are thrilled!

i previously lived in this neighborhood, and wanted to go back to have a nice dinner while i was traveling solo. and my expectations were blown away as the food was not only incredibly well prepared, paced and served, the relaxed and friendly atmosphere from the chef, servers and fellow patrons was one of the best dinner experiences ive had in a long time. i cant wait to come back again. 有り難い

What an incredible experience. We happened to be accepted without reservation- definitely not recommended to do that after speaking with the Chef/Owner - we were lucky. The degustation was really great, we enjoyed everything and tried many new things. The space is small and intimate- like we are in his home. Since we were there on a quiet night, we were able to enjoy some informative conversation with the chef. But I can imagine when it’s busy it is more difficult to have this experience, since it is just 2 people working in the whole restaurant. Overall 10/10 would recommend, and will be back

Everything at its finest! The food quality, its freshness, and portions were beyond the price you pay. A lot of variety of fish, each one of them has burst into splendid flavors and different textures. Every dish was prepared in front of you, presented with art and creativity, not only delicious, but also eye-pleasing. They also served authentic desserts and Japanese teas such as Geinmacha, Hojicha, and Matcha, which flavors were well pronounced! Thank you for your hospitality and heartwarming service. I recommend booking in advance through phone call or their instagram.

Amazing gem, the food is extremely high quality, the dishes well prepared, the chef friendly and happy to share his knowledge. We really enjoyed the dinner and the discussions. The place is quite small creating a nice “private experience” atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Amazing Japanese food in this cool counter style location. This is as near as you come to Japan in terms of style and quality. Great sake selection. Service and the chef are very friendly too.

We passed by Kiyo Aji by chance and I booked it for my boyfriend’s birthday days later. EXCELLENT CHOICE. The vibe is cozy and welcoming. Everything, especially the service, exudes quality and precision. The chef and the servers are so welcoming and warm. And we left without being able to eat a bite more. Truly an excellent experience. They even put a wee candle to celebrate the 30th bday of my partner. Thank you thank you ! Highly recommend.
