Karaoke restaurants seem passé next to Japanese Bistro near the Ritz Paris Opera in the 2nd. This place should come with an extreme kookiness warning! Big, bright, bold and buzzing with energy, this is a cutting-edge temple to manga disguised as a hip restaurant and lounge bar. Cute ‘n’ quirky cartoon characters are everywhere – moving around on 25 plasma screens, staring at you bug-eyed from the menu; even the waitresses – meticulous in their work – are dressed up manga-style in provocative outfits. Munch on a slick mix of Japanese favourites - maki, sushi, gyoza, sashimi, yakitori skewers - plus wok cooking, then go crazy at karaoke or on the big dance floor. Japanese Bistro is not a place to show control.

My son and I went there last night, a midweek April evening. The Time Out review gave the impression of great food in an intoxicating atmosphere. Unfortunately, the reality was somewhat different. The food was less than impressive. The sushi/maki/california was just about ok ( however it appeared they were not made on site by the lack of kitchen staff) however the beef ramen was inedible. But the biggest moan is reserved for the lack of atmosphere. It is a big restaurant and there were 4 other customers in the restaurant - and no karaoke or any entertainment at all. Buzzing with energy? Couldn't be further from the truth. Time Out - please keep your online reviews up-to-date, as that is the sole reason for using your site rather than any of the numerous printed guides.
