Udon connoisseurs in Paris would know that this place is commonly compared to Kunitoraya. Well, my Lonely Planet Paris Guidebook only mentioned Kunitoraya but as I was googling "Best Udon in Paris", I saw a couple of posts that mention Sanukiya as a close rival. I conclude that's because the owner of Sanukiya used to work at Kunitoraya so comparisons are bound to happen. We decided to come here for lunch the following day after visiting Kunitoraya. The bright orange awning was hard to miss, when you come around the corner from Pyramides Station. Lunch hour for us was about 12pm and since its still early for the lunch crowd in Paris, the place was pretty empty. Semi-outdoor seating was available and it was nicely sheltered on all sides too (in case it rained). To be fair, I had to order the same dish that I had at Kunitoraya so I got the Niku Udon (beef udon) while my partner ordered the Dry Udon. Verdict: - Niku Udon: The clear broth was flavourful and had delicious hints of beef (means that they cooked the beef with the soup and not seperately) while the udon was springy and chewy. Beef was generous in servings; thinly sliced and had a good absence of fats. However, compared to Kunitoraya I would say this is a really close close second (0.01 points) to Kunitoraya. Thumbs up for speedy service and good ambience. Tip: One of the best way to see if the place is good is to check for Japanese clientele and this place definitely has lots of it! read more

What better way to cure, or at least sooth a pesky cold then to head here for some hot soup. I was really craving some pho, but some udon would have to do given the restaurant's close proximity to the Louvre. We arrived there around 8:30 pm and found about 15 people waiting outside. Given the amount of actual Japanese people inside, we knew it would be worth it. It took less than 20 minutes for us two to get seated. The seating area was cozy, but we got a prime view of the fresh tempura being fried up. The menu was in French/Japanese, but our waitress handed us an English version after seeing our confused faces. I ordered the Kakémiso udon, which was a pork miso and eggs with hot sauce. Despite the fact that I had mistakenly thought that it was a soup, I devoured it quickly. The udons it was listed together with actually come with the same toppings as the one in the menu section above, but are served dry without the soup and instead a hot sauce to pour on the side. The udon and the prawn tempura were simply delicious and left me wanting more. My only complaints were that the menu seemed a tad expensive and the protein portion in the udon was small. I suppose that's the norm for most cuisine in Paris though. I'm definitely making a point to come back here if I'm ever in Paris again. Who knew you could find authentic Japanese here in the heart of the city. read more

By the 7th day of our Europe trip, we were craving for some asian food with soup. Thankfully, this place was around the corner from our hotel and we saw a line and figured it must be good. When we looked over the menu we saw there were Michelin stickers posted on the glass window and figured must be in the Michelin guide. Digged deeper into this and figured we must wait on line to try it. Little did it disappoint, we ordered 2 duck udon noodles, tempura udon (without soup), and tonkutsu udon (whichever their number 1 was) with a lunch set and a drink! My first dive into the duck udon soup and it was delicious! Then I had some number 1 and tempura udon and I said to myself I need to come back to try their other udons! The calpris drink was delicious and the waitress stated it was homemade. After our first experience at this restaurant, my group requested to go again for lunch on our last full day in Paris. Again, we ordered the duck udon and this time I wanted to try beef curry udon. Sadly, the beef curry udon was disappointing because it was too thick and I didn't really enjoy the flavor. Overall, I would recommend this place if you're craving for hot soup and noodles ! read more

The best place to eat Udon in Paris. I would even go further: the best Udon in Europe. Take Karaage and the assorted Tempura - it will blow your mind. Long story short: the usual queue in front of Sanukiya is absolutely worth the wait for the most authentic and best Japanese food experience! read more

Wonderful find in Paris. Busy and jam packed! Noodles tasted great with additions like tonkatsu and fried chicken. Would come again!

This place is awesome. Period. When it comes to Japanese food, I tend to be extra picky about it. I can't help it since I've grown up eating all traditional Japanese food, made by my grandmama ! There is a common tendency of Japanese food here in Europe which is too salty and too many complex flavor in one dish. But, this restaurant stays with the original simple taste which, in my opinion, is the treasure of Japanese spirt, making their culture of food so special and unbeatable. We had a seaweeds udon and traditional pork (salt base soup) udon. Man, the flavors of these dishes brought me back home ! The saltiness is on the right level, and the soup is pure, made with good ingredients. We also ordered fried pork and egg omelet as side dishes. They didn't let us down also. In general, food is awesome, services are friendly, and the vibe of the restaurant is just simply casual. I would, for sure, come back for a second , maybe third, or more visit ! Highlight: Great udon Great price Great side dishes And friendly services read more

This place was incredible! Spent about four days in Paris and my family and I ate here more than we probably should have. This was close to the Louvre. It's a tiny little shop that has an intimate ambience. Seating is very limited and the lines can be very long, but it was worth the wait every time! I'm not a fan of udon but this place changed my mind. The broth was hot and flavorful, the noodles were hearty and filling. The prices were also reasonable! The service was wonderful as well. Being tourists, we knew we wouldn't have the best welcome in Paris, but this place made my family and I felt welcome. The servers were so sweet and accommodating. They've got English menus that were easy to order off of. I would definitely come back to Paris just to visit Sanukiya again. read more

A piece of Tokyo in Paris. It was a great find based on Yelp reviewers. The fact that sealed the deal was the line of Japanese expatriates waiting outside. First of all, the restaurant sells udon, not ramen as the search engine has the restaurant catagorized. The udon and soups are excellent. The atmosphere is tight but very clean. The icing on the cake was when two Japanese nationals pulled up behind us in line pulling their suitcases as they just arrived from the airport. They had a Jones for this place! read more

Sanukiya - Japanese Near Me - Paris, 75

By FAR my favorite Udon joint - EVER. I'm going to Japan later this year so I'll let ya'll know if that changes anything, but this place is GREAT. I first started come here about 3 years ago when I came to study abroad in Paris. I was CRAVING asian food, and a quick Yelp search found me this gem of a place. I'm normally not the biggest fan of Udon, because I feel that compared to ramen which has a cult following, and even Soba which seems to be a thing now, Udon restaurants never really made their mark, at least in New York. The month that I was in Paris, I think I came here about 5-6 times. I was ADDICTED (still am). I came back to Paris 2 years ago, and I brought my family here. I just came back to Paris this summer, and I had it TWICE (my FIRST and LAST meal in Paris, what a way to start and end my trip). This place is a bit small, and it gets a bit warm inside the restaurant. I love sitting at the bar so I can watch the chefs prepare the food, but on a cooler day, the outside seating is great. At peak times the wait might be up to 30 minutes, but I ended up being really good at avoid the lunch and dinner crowds. Price wise, yes it's a bit pricey, but I think the price is well worth the quality in the food. I highly recommend coming here during lunch time (11:30-6) to take advantage of their lunch special. I always do the B set which comes with kaarage, tamagoyaki, gohan, and a beverage (cold unsweetened green tea or calpis are my usuals). My usual is the Bukkamo udon, which is a hot udon dish with marinated duck breast, and it comes with hot sauce to pour over. What I love about Sanukiya is that every dish seems to have a slightly different broth. I know it sounds crazy, but it seems that they do little things to the base broth to make it suit each individual udon dish better. No idea how they do it, but I've eaten about a quarter of the menu at this point, and that's what I've noticed. Maybe I'm just blindly in love with this place. ANYWAY, the udon noodles itself is excellent - super bouncy and the right about of chew and bite to them. The sauce is excellent - super rich, but not overly salty (you can definitely drink this afterwards). The kaarage here is excellent - super juicy and perfectly fried. I like that they cut each of the pieces in half, which makes it more manageable to eat. The tamogoyaki here is among my favorite, as its the perfect sweet and savory item. I love the addition of some scallion inside the tamagoyaki, it makes it such a refreshing side dish. My favorite side dish to get is a Tentoji - 2 pieces of huge shrimp tempura in sweet eggs and onions. When my friend first got this dish, I wasn't sure if I would like it, but its grown to be a must have every single time I come here. The shrimp tempura is perfectly fried, but gently wrapped in the sweet eggs and onions; there are both crunch and soggy bits to it. The eggs are JUST cooked and oh so soft, and the sauce has the right amount of sweetness to it. It's a bit pricey at 11 euros, but money is made to be spent on great food. I'm a fan of their cold udon as well - I usually get the Hiyashi Kitsune as the sweetness of the tofu does great with cold udon. I've tried the ten-zaru, as well as the buta-shabu, but I usually get cold udon when I want something ultra refreshing and light, so the less toppings the better. The buta shabu is alright, but I'm not a fan of some of the vegetables included with it (arugula I believe). I see a lot of reviews compare this to Marukame in Honolulu, as well as Tsurotontan in New York, but in my honesty opinion, those two udon restaurants cannot even compare. Marukame has a singular soup base for ALL their udon, and while their noodles are excellent, the overall strength of their udon dishes are pretty weak. Tsurotonton (soon to open in Honolulu as well), and Marugame Monzo (in San Fran) have a lot more variety with their dishes, but when it comes down to the question, can they make a good, simple Udon dish, the answer is no. Their broths lack the depth of flavor that you get here at Sanukiya. Udon seems to be poorly done in a lot of restaurants. Ever go to a generic Japanese restaurant and order their Udon and just be like "I coulda easily made this at home" vs ordering a ramen place, where the broth is so time consuming you can't make it at home? This is my dilemma every time I consider eating Udon in a restaurant back in New York, because I always compare it to Sanukiya, and I know that whatever I pay in New York will not compare to this place. I sound like a fanatic at this point, and I very well am, but I am confident that this is the best Udon restaurant outside of Japan. read more

Plenty of reasons to come here, close to the Louvre, shopping area but most of all cause its great udon and tempura. Watching the rhythm of the kitchen put together bowls of goodness and tasty fried morsels is visually stimulating. Usually a line so be prepared to wait.

I don't see the big fuss. This is A mediocre at best restaurant, with a Michelin star. Proof positive for me that the Michelin star organization is still populated by the old guard; overweight old French men that are white and make decisions on mediocre food for the pride of France. There were three of us and we ordered two sets of udon and I ordered the Gyu-don bowl. The service was sporadic and brusque. There was a big fuss made about me ordering an extra small dish of scallions for the bowl. They felt it necessary to charge me one euro. Count myself one euro poor. The queue resembles one for those waiting for a chopper to remove the population from the pending apocalypse. Out in the freezing cold with no method whatsoever to put your name on the list through Yelp or to make a reservation. I attribute this to restaurant greed and it speaks to their desire for volume over all else. The food arrived at different times at the table. Fine place for a run-of-the-mill Japanese restaurant but absolutely not Michelin star worthy and I would not go again. It is a tourist trap, this a two star review. read more

Definitely the best udon place in Paris, this says everything. You don't need a long review from me to tell you that you have to visit this restaurant - NOTE: They have been featured in the Michelin Guide since 2013-2017. GETTING SEATED- We arrived at 6.40pm and had to wait for about 15-20mins to get an outdoor seating, just in time for happy hour 5-7pm, which you get to order either a large beer or calpis for the price of a small. Since we sat down, the crowd and queue just gets bigger and longer but since it's a Friday night, I'm not sure if it's this busy during weekdays. Anyways, be prepared to wait at least 15mins for a table. TOURIST FRIENDLY- If you can't read French, they have an English menu available and staffs here can either speak Japanese, French, English or Mandarin. FINALE- We ordered a few items; 1) hot soup tofu udon, 2) hot sauce chicken and omelette udon, 3) fried pork cutlet and 4) small rice pork miso. The broth and sauce is amazing and the cutlet is nicely fried and crispy. These were the most raved about dishes on Yelp. read more

Decor: what? Service: good Food: please I looked for Japanese near me and hit upon this place. I hustled over, thinking 'Japanese' a synonym for 'sushi'. No. But it took a few to get seated and disrobe (winter layers) so I was not about to leave: best decision of the hour since leaving the Louvre! Excellent broth and noodles. Very Paris prices. Have mercy. read more

We wanted to go to this place because it was close by to many other attractions. The menu and reviews looked promising. On top of that, it was a Michelin Star restaurant. Now here comes the taste test. First the noooodles was ok, I was expecting some eruption of flavor within my mouth. The texture was chewy for udon like any other udon would taste. The fried chicken they gathered into the noodle was dry and flavorless. Maybe I had too a good deal of experience of korean fried chicken before, so these chickens were weak. There are better noodles in LA area compared to this place. Expect to wait 30-45minutes. Also, some menu items may be out of stock. For example, a curry rice dish I was about to order was out of stock because they didnt have any more rice o.o . read more

When in Paris, what do you think of for a great dinner? Udon and Tempura not on your list? Well it should be- at least if eaten here! Yelp helped us find this small place pretty close to where we were staying ( close to the Louvre) , and it had great reviews. I can see why. Most Parisians won't wait in line for dinner- but when we got there there was a line. But it moved quite quickly and within 5 min we were seated. Menus and very friendly wait staff speak English. For a nice light but delicious meal after a long day you can't go wrong here. read more

My friend and I wandered in after completing our second day at the Louvre. It was around 6pm and luckily, we got seats right before things got busy. (When we walked out around 7pm, there was a small line forming.) This place is great: menu in multiple languages with the same price, staff that is multi-lingual and great Udon! It was so good, we came back the next day. I tried both the cold and hot Udon noodles with pork belly, arugula and egg. My preference is the hot...something so comforting about that. Definitely highly recommended! read more

So good! No Michelin star, but recognized as a Michelin recommended restaurant. We first ordered a Kar-age Chicken to share. AMAZING! It was pretty good, but to add some flavor, I added togarashi (spice flakes). My girlfriend got the UME OROSHI ZARU UDON which is basically a soba with udon noodles. It comes with a small dish with Japanese Plum (pickled) paste, grated radish, and green onions. She loved it! I got the BUKKAKE TEMPURA UDON and it was EVEN BETTER! The soup comes separately and it's SUPER HOT. You have to pour it into the bowl. It is amazing and two shrimp + vegetable tempura all go so well with the soup. The noodles were amazing as well. The only downside is that they don't give you enough soup to pour into the bowl. I had to order another one which costed me 4 euros, it was lukewarm, and it took forever to make it to our table. I still do recommend this place. A must try if you're getting of tired of eating the same things! read more

Craving ramen or udon and we decided on udon. Probably the best decision of the day. The menu has many varieties of udon. Mine came with a side of hot soup so I can add myself. I had the pork miso, poached egg, and arugula. It was a great balance of flavor, especially the arugula. It was a pleasant surprise that added a twist to the bowl. The wife had pork belly in Yuzu miso soup. There was just as much meat as there was udon. A definite plusIt was totally different in taste but was just as good. Plenty of broth and just the right amount flavor. There was a short wait but well worth it. There are plenty of seats so the wait goes by quick. Bigger groups have to wait a little longer since most of the seats are bar seats. Overall a great late lunch with a happy hour beer. read more

SO, so good. Cute little restaurant making some of the best udon i've ever had. They're English friendly (ask for the UK/English version of the menu). Outdoor seating is covered, enclosed and heated. Seating at the bar tables inside will most likely mean you'll be leaving with hair smelling like fried katsu (ladies with long hair). If you can catch the lunch special, Set A is the way to go! A bowl of udon with a side of chicken rice, kaarage and a little egg omlette. A large beer is also the price of a small during special hours. Nothing more satisfying with a steaming hot bowl of noodle soup. Their Niku Udon is amazing. Simple broth with onions and thing slices of beef. I was feeling a bit under the weather from traveling and lack of sleep. This perked me right back up. Nice noodle consistency, large bowl, tender beef. read more

Michelin starred udon? Show me. Can this place be any more strategically located? It's a 5 min walk from the Louvre, and let's face it, when you're ravenous after three hours at the museum, you're not really itching to walk a mile just to eat (which considering the massive transit strikes during the time we traveled, was a very real possibility). My friend and I arrived at around 1:30 and there was a giant line out the door, but don't fret! It moves very quickly. I think we waited around 20 minutes max? We also got the best seats in the house #luck We were both so hungry so we ordered this lunch set that they offered with the shrimp tempura udon, a plate of tonkatsu to share ( the crispiest, softest breading that fell apart easily) and two glasses of Kirin. Honestly, maybe it was because I was in Paris and super hungry, but the Kirin was probably the most refreshingly cold beer I've ever had. Actually, the whole meal was a godsend. But! I have to be honest. Was the udon good? Absolutely. Was it worth Michelin credibility? I don't think so. Maybe it's because we're Asian and we're so used to hot soups and noodles on a regular basis, so I can see how this is considered to be a novelty among the Parisians. To us, it was just a "really good udon joint. read more

If you grow up with a Filipino mom then you know you MUST have noodles on your birthday! Sanukiya specializes in all that is Udon! Served in soup (as pictured), or with a hot sauce or cold sauce to pour, etc. I love that they recommend different toppings to add to the udon of your choice. This place is highly rated here and on TripAdvisor. I highly recommend it and loved the freshness of the broth. It wasn't salty whatsoever. The lunch set comes with chicken, omelette, and burdock rice and of course with your choice of Udon. I went with the Tofu Udon and added Wakame. It was a great deal and good to share, which I did with hubby. The omelette, I believe, was the star of the meal! I would order that a la carte. I'd also go with tempura udon next time and try one of the sauces to pour versus in a hot soup. It's walking distance from The Louvre and Carrousel shopping center so walking it off when you're done is no problem! read more

Overall (5/5) - Not a huge place so expect to wait. However, take confidence in the fact that a lot of locals dine here. The food is absolutely amazing, prepared with simple and fresh ingredients. The price is very reasonable and you'll want to come back again for more! Be sure to ask for the English menu, though, as the staff doesn't speak much English. _______________ Wait (4/5) - Had to wait about half an hour to get in on an evening in February. The wait was still around that when I was leaving after my dinner. I imagine summers are busier. Ambience (5/5) - It's a noodle bar/udon place ambience so don't go looking for anything else and you'll be fine. Service (4/5) - The staff are very nice but don't speak much English. The food comes fast and is prepared fresh in front of you (at least if you're sitting by the bar like I was). Food (5/5) - Absolutely amazing! Even my girlfriend who doesn't normally like trying new things, and hasn't tried udon before, loved her food! The tastes are simple but vibrant and come together really well. Price (5/5) - Not the cheapest place in town but definitely a solid value for everything you're getting. read more

I didn't know much about this place but looked up Sanukiya ahead of time of must places to try in Paris...this place DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! I didn't know much about it except, I knew there was going to be a wait, they focus on Udon dishes, and I knew at one point in our trip we'd want Asian food. Upon arrival, on a Sunday around 5pmish, there was 3 parties ahead of us. The establishment is small, and they made an extension from the original building to accommodate tables for 4 or more. Inside is all counter seating so don't come with a huge group unless you plan on waiting for more than an hour. We waited about 30 min with a part of 4. It's very close to Louvre so plan accordingly. Staff is helpful and friendly, they speak Japanese, French, and English (which was what I picked up and used to communicate with them...yes spoke in all 3 languages...have High School and Uni to thank for that). They do have English menus for those who can't read Japanese and/or French. We ordered Tonjiru Udon (Pork and miso yuzu broth over noodles), shrimp tempera udon, and a Gyu-Don (beef, onion, and poached egg rice bowl). The Tonjiru by far was the best dish...it had so much umami flavor with the yuzu broth. The Mrs. found it strange but a good strange since it was a flavor of miso and then the yuzu came through. To me, it was one of the best udon dishes I've had to this date. Not trying to overhype, but the Tonjiru Udon combination was soothing and warm. They also don't skimp on the Udon, it's a good portion for the average person. The staff also seats according to the room they have so if you have a party of 4 and 2 spots open up at the counter for party of 2, the party of 2 behind you will get seated before you so don't be offended or annoyed. I'm not sure if I'd wait an hour to eat here, but if you are able to beat the lunch or dinner rush....give this place a try. read more

美味しかった！After 3 shitty "Japanese" restaurants, I was becoming skeptical of Japanese food in Paris. This place kissed my soul. Simple delicious udon. Maybe among the best I've ever had (I've lived in Japan) and definitely the best karaage I've ever had in my life. The long Asian line outside is testament to this restaurant's quality. Bonus I understood everything in 日本語！^_^I just saw the Michelin recommendations on the window! Definitely a great bargain and close to the Louvre. read more

We needed a break from French cuisine and if you do too, come through. read more

Maybe we just ordered the wrong things? It was cold rainy day in September, and we were craving soupy food. We were there around 2:30pm, and waited about 20min to be seated. It's a small restaurant. We ordered chicken karrage and slow cooked pork with boiled eggs for appetizers. The appetizers were very yummy and we were getting excited to get to our Tonjiru udon. And tide has turned. Maybe it's just THAT udon, but it was super herby. I thought I was eating soup of roots. Barely tasted thinly sliced pork in there. And pretty pricey for lunch joint. Frozen beer was very good too! Foam at top is frosty and interesting. Other than that, servers were very nice and they speak French, Japanese & English. Also, you have to pay inside when you are done instead of asking for check. read more

If you're looking for Japanese cuisine in Paris and are bored of eating baguettes and crossaints daily, look no further than Sanukiya. Sanukiya specializes in Udon Japanese Cuisine and does 1 thing really really well. Highlights - - Frequented heavily by Japanese Expats, this place is consistently busy. We showed up during lunchtime and had to wait about 20 minutes. The line was long, but it was consistently moving. One of the few restaurants that had a line out the door. - They offer a lunch special which includes your choice of Udon, fried chicken, egg and rice. It's fantastic and a great deal given the prices at Paris restaurants. Very filling as well. - They specialize in Tempura so get an Udon with Tempura - Request the English menu if needed! - Small restaurant with mostly bar style seating. There are a few tables, but not recommended for large groups. - All the servers were extremely friendly! Overall, definitely worth coming back to next time I'm in Paris. A well run Japanese restaurant with amazing Udon! read more

Quick trip to Paris for the weekend and this restaurant quickly became the meal we looked forward to each day. The food and service are both excellent. I'm usually not a big fan of udon. I think udon sometimes has a plastic-like taste. However, this was not the case at Sanukiya. Was very impressed by the udon and the broth (had the Kitsune Udon and the Tonjiru Udon). Was told their Misotama Udon is very popular. Unfortunately, on both occasions that we came here they were sold out. Since the restaurant is small, they do sell out. Something to keep in mind if you come here for a late dinner. Good Food= Good Holiday :-) J'aime Paris! read more

Sanukiya lived up to the expectations. We arrived and ended up waiting in a short line for about 15 mins. The restaurant is on the smaller side with a very "get to know your neighbors" cozy environment. The service was excellent and food promptly served after ordering. Most of the staff spoke to us in English which was an accommodation that wasn't necessary but appreciated. We ended up getting the shrimp and vegetable tempura rice bowl and the teriyaki duck udon bowl. Both were delicious, but if I had to choose one...go for the shrimp and tempura! I also ordered a small frozen beer, which wasn't quite as good as I imagined. Only the foam is "slushy-like" but it was an experience. Overall, I recommend whole-heartedly and would love to come back to try some other options. read more
