From signature pâté croûte to pigeon and foie gras en croûte, à table in Yushima serves classic French cooking entirely à la carte. Here is how to navigate dinner with wine.
01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
Tucked into a Yushima backstreet, à table centers its dinner around traditional French technique, best led off with the house specialty: pâté croûte. Beneath a firmly baked, aromatic pastry crust, savory farce and glistening jelly come together in precise layers, packing classical rigor into each slice. The appetizer list also features dishes like chilled new onion velouté, horsemeat tartare, and mi-cuit Scottish salmon, giving diners the freedom to build their own multi-course rhythm rather than sticking to a fixed set menu.
The main courses skew rich and uncompromising, including limited offerings such as pigeon and foie gras pie or lièvre à la royale bound in a concentrated sauce. Other options include Sisternon lamb loin wrapped and baked, or Hitachi beef shin simmered in beer. Portions across the board are generous: for a party of 2, selecting 2 appetizers and 1 mains to share makes for an ample, satisfying dinner.
Diners lingering over meat courses can draw on a cellar stacked with French reds, notably from Burgundy and the Rhône Valley. For those skipping alcohol, premium juices from Alain Milliat and non-alcoholic sparkling wines provide deliberate pairing alternatives. Because the restaurant operates only for dinner and offers limited seating, advance reservations are recommended.
