TOWA is a refined culinary destination in Paris’s 12th arrondissement, located on rue Crozatier just moments from Gare de Lyon and the vibrant Marché d'Aligre. Led by chef Shin Okusa and pastry chef Ayako Okusa, TOWA offers a distinctive dining experience that combines the foundations of classic French gastronomy with the subtle elegance of Japanese sensibility.
Trained in renowned French establishments, the Okusa team focuses on traditional French cuisine with precision at every level — from carefully judged cooking techniques to deeply developed sauces and a strong respect for seasonal ingredients. The menu changes regularly to reflect the rhythm of the seasons, allowing the freshest produce to shape each dish and ensuring every visit offers something new.
What sets TOWA apart is the finesse of its Japanese influence. Ingredients such as dashi, yuzu, and shiso are thoughtfully incorporated to elevate and refine the dishes without overpowering their French identity. This balance creates a menu that feels both familiar and surprising, where technique, flavour, and restraint come together in harmony.
The name TOWA, meaning “eternal” in Japanese, reflects the restaurant’s philosophy of connection, sharing, and hospitality. With its intimate setting and carefully crafted cuisine, TOWA offers a unique Paris dining experience where French tradition and Japanese precision meet in perfect balance. Booking recommended.
