hidden gem in Paris! Went to SOMA SANDO with my wife on a sunny afternoon and we were both genuinely impressed. I had the prawn sandwich and, no exaggeration, it's one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. Perfectly toasted, packed with flavour, and super fresh. The staff were really friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. The place itself is small but beautifully designed—warm wood interiors, minimalist Japanese vibes, and a peaceful atmosphere. We also loved the matcha drinks, refreshing and perfectly made. It’s the kind of place that feels relaxed yet thoughtful in every detail. A perfect lunch stop. Highly recommend!

We’ve been to Soma Sando five times now over the last 6 months. Each time the food and the service has lived up to our expectation. Which is why we return! The items we’ve tried and can recommend are: miso aubergine, chicken katsu sandwich, porc katsu sandwich, corn dog, sesame cheesecake and matcha latte.

TANZEY ! You are an adorable human. We will come back every time because of your professional and quick service ! Thank you loads. First we were greatly surprised, we have no idea what to expect. Although this places has quickly became one of our favorite spots in town to grab some sandos. FAVOURITE : CHICKEN SANDO. • Generally so filling , juicy and delicious. • We tried the corn dog for the first time too and it was delectable. • Even we’re not big fans of white chocolate , the cookie was really good with a very unique taste. RECOMMENDATIONS. • TAKEAWAY prices are very fair. • DINE-IN : there’s an approximate difference of 2 euros if you want to dine in. MUST-TRY to sit there at least once : the place is extremely cosy and charming. BIG BONUS. You can smell their yummy food miles away OVERALL. Delicious food. Lovely service. Fair prices. Definitely recommend. See you soon soma Sando :)

Such a cozy sidewalk spot! I was drawn in on a lark by the corndog advertisement at this French-Japanese cafe, and it turned out to be the fusion I didn’t know I needed! I will be back.

Pretty good place for a sandwich and plenty of seating upstairs and outside. I really enjoyed the shrimp sandwich but thought the sauce was too heavy and the meat too fatty on the pork sandwich. The woman working there was very nice and let me practice my French with her.

A beautiful experience. The food is amazing. The ginger lemonade, corn dogs, matcha milkshake, katsu sando are all absolutely perfect.

Such a beautiful and cozy place! The lunch (we went after peak hours) ambience was clean, lovely and zen. The staff are kind but seem to be a little bit reserved for fear of being “too friendly”. We started with a spectacular corndog with panko crust. Yum! Then we had a doggedly shredded carrot and beet salad. Good sweet sour flavor but the veggies were a bit mushy rather than crunchy. Then we we had a fish sando which I ordered because it was full of interesting flavors. But somehow these yummy flavors didn’t really harmonise with the dish nor with the bread itself. Like neighbors but not friends. Overall a good experience but probably would not come back.
