Walk-in in Paris

3 places for Walk-in in Paris, picked by creators — with what they said.

KOYA — Jeremy Jacobowitz
Said the daily-changing bento box was the most comforting and satisfying meal, and the miso sesame chocolate chunk cookie had a perfect balance of sweet, bitter, and salty.
Heads up: Unlike its sister restaurants, they could walk in without a reservation, but the lunch bento starts at noon and the selection changes daily.
Shin Izakaya — Louis
The three starters—kabocha, spinach, and grilled eggplant—were, in his words, 'exactly how they'd do it in Japan,' and were overwhelmingly good; the karaage was a notch above the other mains. He said the vegetable dishes are their real specialty, making it a great address for vegetarians too.
Heads up: The mains, like yakitori and ribs, weren't as impressive as the starters, and he was disappointed that the soy sauce was placed too far down the counter, forcing him to eat the salmon collar without it.
Le Relais de l'Entrecôte — Les Frenchies
The steak is very tender and full of flavor, the secret pepper sauce has punch without blowing your head off, and the food arrives in about 15 minutes.
Heads up: No reservations are taken, so you queue outside; some locations can mean a 30–45 minute wait, so arriving right at noon is recommended.
