J'ai adoré ce restaurant !!!
Pour les amateurs de poisson, je vous conseille vivement de goûter à leurs merveilleux plats de poisson aux assaisonnements frais & au goût exquis. Goûtez les ceviche, vous ne le regretterez pas !
J'ai également goûté à deux plats de viande qui étaient excellents.
Faites juste attention car c'est un restaurant à tapas. Ce qu'on a fait c'est qu'à deux on a partagé 5 tapas. C'est largement suffisant.
En tout cas c'était un excellent restaurant, les mélanges de goûts étaient divins, je n'ai pas été déçue.

Tu sais quand tu essaie un resto pour la première fois & que tu en sors en te disant « Wow ça c'était vraiment une belle une expérience, c'est certain qu'on va revenir. »
Dès l'accueil on sentait que ce serait chaleureux.
Une idée originale cet hybride Tapas Japono-Péruviens. Une fête de saveurs pour les papilles.
& puis notre serveuse Ambre charmante & efficace. Même le barman Chami est venu à notre table pour me faire assayer un petit moccktail au concombres. Bravo !
This restaurant offers tapas in a fantastic fusion of Peruvian & Japanese cuisine, along with a delightful selection of cocktails.
We tried serveral small dishes & we particularly enjoyed the incredible mix of flavors of the Lomito Saltado. We also loved the attention to detail, like the adorable origami crane pinned to the Sakaya cocktail we ordered-it was not only a charming touch but also delicious!
For dessert, we had the'Suspiro Nikkei,' & it was nothing short of a revelation. The creative combination of dulce de leche & miso flavors wowed us.
The lively decor enhanced our experience, creating a vibrant atmosphere that was both inviting & fun. Furthermore, The service was friendly & efficient.
Absolument impeccable. Vraiment tout est bon du début à la fin. Le service, les tapas, les drinks & les desserts sont formidables. Je recommande fortement! 🫶🏼
Wow! We were impressed from start to finish. From the cool aesthetics of the place, to the perfect service, to the AMAZING food. Truly unique one-of-a-kind flavours, it's a 10/10 for the 5 tapas we tried. A must-try concept. Oh & the drinks are all in-house handcrafted mixology drinks. Don't miss their Pisco. Can't wait to be back, & to try their other affiliated restaurants, like the Barranco.

Les cocktails sont excellents, le goût est complexe & magnifiquement décoré.
Cependant les tapas, j'ai vu mieux. Les saveurs sont simples (brochettes de boeuf au fleur de sel), le maquereau torché avec trop de riz & le boeuf torché sur riz trop épicé.
Bref, on a passé un moment agréable, mais sans plus.
Just had an absolutely impeccable meal here. Beautifully decorated, open kitchen tapas restaurant, we had 8 dishes & they were all delicious. Service can be optimized but the food is truly the star of the show here. Will absolutely return!
Me & my girlfriend tried this restaurant, & we really enjoyed it. It's a small, cozy place with good service & tasty food. In my opinion, it's a bit pricey, but I'm not familiar with tapas places-we paid $200 including tax & tip. We shared five dishes & had two cocktails. I didn't like one of the cocktails, but they were happy to switch it for a beer with no issues. The service was great; they even explained some of the dishes, which was really cool.
My friends & I wanted to try a new tapas place & saw this one had some good ratings. I must say price is Very HIGH for what it is & the food isn't that good. It's quite salty & some weird mix that needs to be worked on. I liked maybe 2 out of the 8 dishes & I am someone who likes pretty much everything in food. Drinks were fine, they tasted quite good & service was very good. Our waitress was great, attentive & nice. The atmosphere & ambiance were great too, good lighting, very clean, & nice decorations.
Food was okay, not great, either not super flavorful or way too salty. 1 out of 2 cocktails was super watered down & the other one was delicious. Portions are super small for the price/flavor. For a tapas restaurant, why serve things in uneven numbers ? 5 scallops, 3 pieces of fish, 5 pieces of algea ... most of the tables will be seating even numbers of people. A detail but still for the price it's worth thinking about.
Toutes les assiettes sont un vrai délice, une explosion de saveurs en bouche. Par contre, les cocktails sont majoritairement composés de glace, saveur diluée à 20$! L'enjeu de ce restaurant est le prix. De 22 à 27$ l'assiette de tapas, l'addition monte vite pour un repas. & la portion des tapas est réellement petite.

Premiere visite & nous avons adoré! Tout d'abord la formule tapas est ce que nous préférons cela nous permet de goûter à plusieurs plats à partager. L'accueil & le service sont très agréable. La serveuse était sympathique & expliquait bien les plats. Les plats sont délicieux, plein de saveurs & surprenant. Nous avons eu un coup de coeur pour les pétoncles & les sashimis ❤️
Excellent service & cocktails, belle ambiance. En revanche nos tapas étaient trop salé & les deux on avait mal au ventre en fin de soirée, je sais pas si c'était le poisson....
Expérience gastronomique unique ! Ambiance, menu, service & équipe ... WOW ! Laissez-vous charmer par la complexité des plats & des incroyables cocktails. Découvrez sans hésiter ce concept Tapas de mets Péruvien / Japonais , tout simplement sublime. Bien hâte de vous revoir !!
Les tapas sont très bons . Par contre nous étions vraiment déçus des cocktails qui avaient très peu de goût... heureusement que les plats sont super bons . Je reviendrais mais sans cocktails cette fois ci
