A very bad experience. We arrived and the restaurant was completely empty, but they still insisted on assigning us a table right next to the wall, right next to the bathroom. We asked for another option, and they were completely inflexible and unfriendly. The service was so unwelcoming that we decided not to stay. We do not recommend going.

Incredible restaurant in Polanco. Probably the best I had outside of Japan . Great service, proper atmosphere and amazing food. Not cheap, but the chef guided am outstanding omakaze - very careful with gluten items as I’m celiac and they were able to accommodate. Extra kudos to the white fish selection, otoro and mocchi

My friend and I had a serious sushi craving, but sadly, this place didn’t hit the spot—at least not for me. I love sushi and have tried it at so many places, so I had high hopes. For the price, I was expecting something more flavorful, more memorable… just more. It wasn’t bad, but definitely not something I’d rush back for. On the bright side, the service was genuinely great—friendly and attentive.nI didn’t enjoy watching them make sushi with their hands. I know they have to use their hands, but it wasn’t fun to actually see it.
