"There are bad restaurants, terrible restaurants and then there is Shan Gout.I've been to Paris 9 times and had my share of rude service and bad Asian food. But this is just jaw-droopingly bad food and the service is not just rude. It was get-up-and-scream bad. It is probably the worst restaurant my wife and I have ever been to!We walked in for lunch and most of the tables were empty. The waiter, who I believe is the owner, refused to answer even the basic questions.Anyway, we went ahead and ordered sticky rice and noodles with some vegetables. And dumplings.The dumplings were in-edible and my son, who eats practically anything, refused to touch it after two bites.I had the stick rice and I swear - when I poked my chopstick and lifted it, the entire bowl of rice came out. It was more like glue-rice, not sticky rice. My wife had ordered noodles which she could also not separate.It was not surprising because the dish was cooked in front of us in literally 60 seconds. The waiter/owner then completely lost all interest in us. We wanted a fork since chopstick was not the right instrument. By this time, we were the only ones in the room. He just waved me over to a place which had a bunch of chopsticks. Come on!When time came to pay, he refused to take my Visa card, which I've been using all over Paris. I pointed to him that his instrument does take cards. He just flatly refused to try.Anyone who thinks this place even remotely serves Chinese food should really get out there and try real Chinese food.Avoid this at all costs!"

"12€90 for the buffet at noon and 15€90 at night, at paris? It's the cheapest Japanese restaurant I know (ex æquo)! valid for the whole france, in fact. It seems to me that there are the same dishes as it is at noon or at night, but I don't stop at the price. Indeed, the sushi bar has three excellent points (for me). First, there's everything I like in Japanese food: skewers, sushi and makis. with, as a bonus, good Chinese noodles (that there is in any Asian buffet, of course, but they are not always good, so as to emphasize it). Then it is quite rarely crowded, something that has always surprised me when I went there (I would say about 15 times,) because it is still good and cheap. In the end, it's so much better for customers, who can eat calmly. Finally, if a dish is exhausted, it is usually restocked in the next few minutes.At worst, it is reported and they do what they need.Nothing to say about the service, if it is only very discreet. Come on, for chipoter: too discreet? But I don't mind, I'm not coming for that. cooks may not speak well French (Chinese, not Japanese, as usual). I've found their pins a little dry, but not to the point of getting bad. At worst, they're just a little less good than normal. It's not a big one, but it's a detail because it's a buffet. No matter what size, if you can (re)serve it!I recommend it to you, but don't go too often, otherwise I'm going to have to book this restaurant and say there's too many people!"
