Solid sushi, great value in Nanterre
Sushi Nanterre has become a reliable neighborhood staple for anyone craving decent Japanese food without breaking the bank. The California Roll Spécial stands out with its crispy tempura shrimp and house spicy sauce, while the Chirashi Saumon Avocat is a beautifully balanced bowl that showcases the freshness of the ingredients. Service is quick and friendly, making it perfect for a speedy lunch before heading back to work at the nearby Défense towers.
The menu is straightforward but well-executed—no gimmicks, just solid sushi and sashimi done right. The Yakitori Mix offers a nice variety of grilled skewers that work well as a shared appetizer or light main course. Prices sit comfortably in the €12-25 range, which is reasonable for the quality you're getting. It's not the fanciest spot in Nanterre, but it's consistently good and always worth a visit when you're in the area.
