A Fusion of Japanese Elegance and French Artistry
Perched just steps from the Seine with views of Notre Dame, Sola invites you to discover a harmonious blend of Japanese precision and French culinary heritage. This Michelin-starred gem offers a dining experience that is as unique as its setting. From its minimalist pale wood furnishings to the vaulted cellar featuring a traditional Japanese dining platform—complete with the ritual of removing your shoes—Sola embodies a seamless interplay of cultures.
Under the creative guidance of Chef Kosuke Nabeta, the menu is a celebration of contrasts and craftsmanship. Combining the refined techniques of Japanese cuisine with the rich bounty of French produce, Nabeta presents a gastronomic journey where balance, flavour, and innovation converge. His mastery of traditional methods such as smoking, marinating, fermenting, and alternative cooking techniques breathes life into ingredients like sake, ponzu, soya, and mizuna, delivering dishes that are both polished and deeply personal.
Standout creations include refined interpretations of foie gras, delicate wagyu beef tataki, and umami-rich uni paired with creamy risotto. Each dish is thoughtfully plated, offering not only a feast for the palate but also for the eyes.
The intimate dining space, with its minimalist yet warm design, enhances the culinary experience. Service is impeccable, with an emphasis on detail and creating a welcoming atmosphere. To complement the dishes, Sola boasts a carefully curated wine list, spotlighting natural and biodynamic selections that pair perfectly with the menu.
