Orient Extreme St Germain

I've been going to this restaurant for twenty years, but last night was the last time. It was a nice, traditional place, with freshly prepared Classical Japanese food. But it's been Nobu-ed up: fancier decor, trendier menu, higher prices. And the cuisine doesn't measure up. I had the black cod with miso, for 32 euros, advertised on the menu as fresh. It was a frozen slab that had been microwaved and then broiled with the sauce. A mushy, watery awfulness. Much of the dinner seemed out of the freezer and microwaved. The rice was an overcooked clump of starch. Only bankable thing is the raw fish. Because, you know, it's not cooked. Yes, I'm sad. Loved that place.

The service was terrible and bordering on rude. The restaurant was very busy and a large group of people stood just inside the door, waiting for tables and watching us eat, which was most uncomfortable. The quality of the food has deteriorated over the years. It remains better than many of the (Chinese-run) Japanese restaurants in France but is now over-priced and over-rated.

Very good Japanese 3 minutes from Blvd Saint-Germaine on the left bank. I enjoyed everything, and there are many classics on the menu. This is a chain that does not feel like a chain. Large menu (not limited to sushi and sashimi). Reserve.
