About

Hakata Choten is a Japanese restaurant specializing in tonkotsu ramen, located in the heart of Paris's Opera district.

The pork broth is simmered for over 24 hours, offering a remarkable depth of flavor. Customers can choose from several ramen variations, including black (roasted garlic) and red (spicy miso) versions, alongside award-winning gyoza. The intimate atmosphere, decorated in black and red, evokes a culinary Japanese sanctuary. The restaurant offers al dente noodles, carefully crafted toppings, and a gustatory experience close to the best ramen establishments in Japan. Despite Parisian prices (between 10 and 15€), Hakata Choten provides an authenticity and culinary quality that makes it a must-visit for Japanese cuisine enthusiasts.
