We ordered the tiraditos (salmon & cod), the tuna tartare & the grilled miso cod as well as the beef nigiri. My personal favorite was the beef nigiri. The drinks were delicious. Overall the food items were a bit pricey & good but not great. The truly remarkable part of our night was the service provided by our cook/waiter, Jonathan, which we absolutely loved.
Everything was awesome. Had a reso for the dining room, & asked upon arrival if we could sit at the kitchen counter (always recommended), & it was no problem. The chefs behind the counter were great company -fun, easy to chat with, informative & had superb suggestions. Service was the same. No complaints. Very happy I discovered this place. Would definitely recommend it & will be heading back soon I hope. ...Oh, & the food was delicious as were the cocktails! I loved it. Almost forgot to mention that most important part! haha
If you can sit at the kitchen bar -do it, it's am incredible way to elevate an already exceptional experience. The food is amazing. If you are at all intrigued or curious about "Japanese Peruvian" do yourself a favor, go, order anything & you won't be disappointed. Don't skip dessert!
Our server was amazing. Food was super fresh. Wish there was a bit more variety though. Dishes were very similar., but very good. Would definitely go back. Great selection of wines & cocktails & cocktails
Thank u for a lovely evening
Souper agréable, mais tout a fini par goûter un peu la même chose, & les cocktails trop sucrés! je suis contente d'avoir visité ce restaurant mais peu de chances que j'y retourne. Dommage.
Fantastic food, so fresh & original! The drink where also very good & they really put a lot of efforts on the drinks. So many flavours in each dish! We took 6 plates for both of us & we felt full. We sit at the bar, the ambiance was really great & relaxed, they have a super cute terrasse as well. Really enjoyed our experience & the prices are actually reasonable! Highly recommand!
