TOWA Restaurant

TOWA in Paris is a gem — a Japanese chef’s refined take on French fusion. Every dish was light, elegant, and beautifully crafted. A truly memorable dining experience. Highly recommended!

We had a reservation for 4 at 7pm on a Sunday right when they opened. It was just us until about 7:30 when another table arrived. By 9pm it was half full. We decided on the five course tasting menu, which at the time of this review was 95euros. Everything was beautiful and tasty. I didn’t eat the duck (which was like a beef Wellington style) but everyone else in our family loved it and were happy to eat my portion. 😊 my favorite was the chocolate brûlée for dessert and everyone enjoyed the endless bread. The service was lovely.

The food was absolutely amazing!! The chef and his wife are so talented. I only wish I lived in Paris to be able to eat here more often.

Well-cooked dinner with lots of flavor and sophistication. The fish had a bitter taste that was a bit challenging. Overall, well done!

I have dined at Michelin star restaurants, from 1 all the way up to 3. As other reviewers have said, this restaurant is at that tier and was, in fact, better than the majority of the Michelin restaurants I’ve been to. Every single course in the tasting menu was delicious, presentation was immaculate and artistic, and both entrees were nothing short of sublime (the Iberian pork and Talbot fillet… WOW!!!). The service was impeccable, with great wine recommendations and the sort of service you’d expect at a Michelin restaurant. I will also note, I have been to restaurants where tasting menu service was glacial to the point I considered paying and leaving - this entire experience was timely and, in my opinion, perfect. It seemed that attention was paid to my pace and so I never waited long for the next course, but it was also never before I was ready for it. The staff was extremely polite and helpful and, despite being a pathetic monolingual American, I felt very comfortable and communication was easy. I’ll also mention, I went to Japan just this year and the broth to the ravioli dish was nothing short of exquisite, on the level of the best broths I had while in Japan. Overall, one of the best restaurants I have ever dined at and for the quality and quantity of food and wine I thought that the price was incredible, too: 143 euros for the tasting (95), 3 glasses of wine, and a digestif (for one person) IN. PARIS! Do yourself a favor and go here!!

We had the most lovely meal at TOWA! It was our first Michelin experience so we weren’t sure what to expect, but it completely exceeded our expectations. The service was amazing and the food was incredible (we did the tasting menu, I’m still dreaming about the monkfish.) The servers were extremely friendly and attentive; we would definitely come back next time we visit Paris. Merci!

We had a fantastic time at TOWA. The tasting menu was amazing, a real adventure of taste and texture. The service was impeccable. Both of us feel like dining here was the highlight of our weekend in Paris 💕

Dining at TOWA restaurant is such an exquisite dining experience in Paris. All dishes have the authenticity of French gastronomy with the Japanese touch of the chef who happened to have experiences with French Starred chefs. What strikes me most is we enjoyed our foods from the first dish until desserts as the pastry chef who seems to have experiences with French high cuisine in the palaces serves us with the excellent desserts in all terms. Highly recommend!
