Sola - Paris: Reviews & Ratings
Amazing food and great service. Good selection of wines as well. Japanese and French cooking merged into an Amazon omakase experience. High quality produce and sustainably used as well. Now while the attention to detail is fantastic and flavors are really good, I have to state that the portion size is on the smaller side. All tasting menus are of course smaller but this menu felt a lot smaller - get the mains (fish and venison) to be portioned bigger, something the team should work to improve.
Amazing experience! Truly deserves its reputation. The entire dinner is like a journey. Service is impeccable. Really good wine and champagne
Chef Nabeta's creativity has not diminished since the last time we've visited! Every dish is a journey worth waiting for, and our group had a great time trying to decipher the ingredients behind each course. We thoroughly enjoyed the meal here, and will look forward to visiting again next time we're in Paris.
