Zakuro is a more intimate address in the 2nd arrondissement. Be aware that the restaurant is closed on Mondays. Service windows are short, especially at lunchtime (12:00 p.m.–1:00 p.m.), so it is best to book or arrive early to enjoy this well-regarded cuisine.

Practical Tips
To reach these places, favor public transportation. The 1st and 4th arrondissements are well served by lines 1, 4, 7, 11 and 14 (Châtelet, Hôtel de Ville, Les Halles stations). The 6th is accessible via line 4 (Saint-Sulpice, Odéon), and the 17th via line 2 (Ternes, Villiers) or line 3 (Wagram).
Hours vary considerably: while Leader Sushi and Hoki Sushi offer great flexibility until 11:00 p.m. or 1:00 a.m., others such as Kanpai or Zakuro have more limited time slots or are closed on certain days, especially Mondays. Always check availability before heading out, particularly for restaurants rated 4.8/5 and above, where demand can be high.
