Discover the culinary art of teppanyaki with views of Paris

  • Teppanyaki made by our Japanese chefs

  • Intimate, soothing and authentic setting

  • Panoramic views over the City of Light

  • Overlooking the Seine and Maison de la Radio

High above the banks of the Seine, overlooking the Île aux Cygnes, an unexpected encounter with Japan awaits. The word 'teppanyaki' translates as 'grilled on an iron plate', and it is an art for those who create it and a sensory journey for those doing the tasting. Sit down with one of our chefs and let the magic begin.

This is Japanese haute cuisine in the Beaugrenelle district of Paris, where we are waiting to introduce you to the culinary art of teppanyaki. Enliven your taste buds, and feast your eyes, in our restaurant, with its hardwood décor and soothing, traditional ambience.

Admire the skill of Chef Kunio Kitadokoro, who prepares Kagoshima wagyu-beef sirloin and flambéed lobster with white sesame sauce right in front of your eyes, two dishes which have long been associated with teppanyaki and Benkay.

Our chef performs his gourmet magic with exceptional precision as you watch. A delicately placed flower is all it takes to bring harmony to your plate, you can appreciate his skills before embarking on your delicious feast.

When the culinary show begins, not even the Parisian sunset streaming through our plate-glass windows will distract you from the fun.

Exclusive dishes cooked on an iron grill in front of you, in an outstanding culinary spectacle

Discover Japanese folklore

Have you heard of Benkay, or Benkei? This warrior-monk plays a major part in Japanese folklore. On a mission to disarm 1,000 Samurai warriors as they crossed Kyoto's Gojo Bridge, he managed to take 999 swords before he was defeated by Yoshitsune, a member of the Minamoto clan. After that, Yoshitsune became Benkay's master, and they fought alongside each other until their deaths.

    (Translated by Google) The Benkay lives up to my memory of more than three years ago: perfect.
    For those who are hesitant: I can only invite you to do this experience.

    My only complaint would be about the single music by Mr. Joe HISAISHI which was playing on a loop.
    I would like to lend you one of my vinyls...

    Edit for 2024: Benkay is, in my opinion, the reference for Japanese cuisine in France (and I have been to Japan several times)

    Le Benkay est à la hauteur de mon souvenir d'il y a plus de trois ans : parfait.
    Pour celles et ceux qui hésitent : je ne peux que vous inviter à faire cette expérience.

    Mon seul reproche serait à propos de l'unique musique de M. Joe HISAISHI qui tournait en boucle.
    Je veux bien vous prêter un de mes vinyles ...

    Edit pour 2024 : Le Benkay est, selon moi, la référence de la cuisine Japonaise en France (et je suis allé au Japon plusieurs fois)
