Description

After notching up experience in some prestigious establishments, So Takahashi works alone in the kitchen, while his partner, Rie, is front of house. The chef uses ingredients bought directly at the market to concoct light and flavoursome dishes at reasonable prices. The wine list boasts a selection of fine Burgundies in particular.

Review summary

So offers refined French-Japanese fusion cuisine in Dijon, holding a Michelin Bib Gourmand. Reviewers praise the fresh ingredients, creative presentations, and standout dishes like gazpacho. However, the small venue creates issues with ventilation, noise, and cramped seating. Service pacing is frequently criticized as slow, and reservations rely on SMS or WhatsApp. While the culinary execution is highly rated, the atmospheric constraints and inconsistent service speed may detract from the overall experience for some diners.

Best for

Suitable for diners seeking unique fusion flavors who can tolerate a noisy, intimate setting; advance reservation is essential.
