We got too many of the dishes at the same time, it spoiled the taste of the cod & the beef was colder than it should have been. We told the manager afterwards & he took the feedback well.
The menu is made to be share but some of the dishes were difficult as they only bring normal cutlery instead of serving spoons, no bowl for a dish with broth.
The wine is overpriced & their selection is very small.
Look the place is nice & the service is very good. But I didn't like the food at this place. We got 3 dishes. The eels were ok, I mean the fish tasted good but the rice was just too much & too sticky. It overpowered the eels taste & lingered in your mouth. The Pork on the second dish we got was too hard. Like it was hard to eat. & I have my comments about the other stuff I got.
The food is pricey too. Like I got 3 very small dishes & a drink & I paid 120
Great gem of restaurant in the Plateau. Cozy & very chill atmosphere. Great cocktails, & while the menu is not huge, they obviously know how to create Nikkei (Japanese / Peruvian fusion) dishes full of flavour, freshness & colour. Our host, Facundo, & his crew made some wonderful meal suggestions, & the service was friendly & great. Looking forward to my next visit!
Merci Chami & Natalia pour le service incroyable. De les entrés savoureuses, les cocktails & les plats qui ont un goût exceptionnel on a adoré notre visite

Meilleur resto depuis longtemps!! Recettes originales & travaillées! Recommandés: le ceviche, le boeuf, les brochettes, la salade de betteraves
Attention: Les petoncles gouttent beaucoup le curry.
On est venus un lundi soir pour l'anniversaire de mon frère & on a été super bien servis! Le menu dégustation avec les accords était super, les cocktails sont variés & nos serveurs de la soirée Daniel & Chami étaient parfaits! On reviendra assurément !
Absolutely loved Nikkei! The Peruvian & Japanese fusion is done so well, everything tasted incredibly fresh & full of flavor. You can really tell the ingredients are high quality.
The cocktail menu is fantastic, with creative & perfectly balanced drinks. Service was amazing, attentive, friendly, & made the whole experience even better.
The intimate vibes, beautiful decor, & open kitchen really elevate the atmosphere. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to!
