There are several Japanese restaurants in the near proximity and unfortunately this is not one of the better ones.

On our visit the lady serving was particularly grumpy and forced us to order a dish specifically for our five year old which (as predicted) we didn’t need or eat.

On the plus side the day time menu was good value at €11 for three courses. The food was nice but not not as good as other sushi restaurants locally.

It’s ok for a visits if the queues at the other restaurants are too big.

Delicious menu. I love the surimi salad and mix sashimi, best ever.
Excellent quality food and customer service, on time, always smiling. Income here since 10 years. You must try it! Close to metro diagonal

I don’t know how this place received as many stars as it did, but I’ve had sushi all over the world and this is by far the worst I’ve had it. The sushi rice was too sweet and wet and the sushi on top of it was bleeding into the rice. Even my two kids wouldn’t touch it and they are not too hard to please. In addition, the “Japanese” food is not Japanese food. I ordered tempura shrimp udon and I got some udon noodles in broth that tasted a combination of MSG and random various flavors starting from Worcestershire sauce and ramen powder packet. It was salty and after three bites the portion was done. That’s how little came out. If you want authentic Japanese, you might think twice.

Really good sushi and special fried rice.
Menu with 3 dishes around 14 euro included taxes. Service is impeccable.
I highly recommend it

Good Japanese restaurant. Not your typical trendy Gracia sushi restaurant. Don't need to book. Nice atmosphere. Sushi is well prepared. Service is good.

Some quite decent sushi. Very well prepared and tasty. The service was OK, but nothing mere than OK

Forgot to take pic. Every delicious fried noodle in the set menu, almost the best I ever have. Not Japanese owns the restaurant, but who cares. Most important is sashimi is fresh enough. Fishes don't lie.
