    Top Adresse für gehobene japanische Kaiseki Küche. Der Service ist gut, Ambiente und Essen über jeden Zweifel erhaben. Würde bei erneutem Besuch definitiv am Tresen sitzen wollen um dem Künstlern in der Küche zuzuschauen. Empfehlung wäre die Saké Begleitung direkt mitzubestellen und eine gewünschte Pause irgendwo im Kaiseki Menü bei der Bedienung anzumelden. Sonst kommen die Speisen etwas zu schnell und die Getränke hängen ein wenig hinterher.

    Ein sehr schönes Restaurant mit einer tollen Atmosphäre. Das Essen hat uns von vorne bis hinten begeistert! Herr Sakai hat sich am Ende des Abends mit uns unterhalten und uns etwas über seinen Werdegang erzählt. Sehr interessant! Thekenplätze sind sehr zu empfehlen, da man bei der delikaten Arbeit der Sushi Zubereitung zuschauen kann. Wir werden gerne erneut dieses Lokal besuchen. Arigato Gozaimasu

    So, the reality did not exceed expectations. I strongly recommend the restaurant to improve the presentation of dishes, come up with more interesting stands that will correspond to Japanese cuisine, for example, as the aperitif and wagyu sushi were served. Also, add Japanese utensils to the interior of the establishment. In my opinion, it is better to remove the salad item. It would be more interesting to replace the salad with a mini set of sashimi. The alcoholic set to the tasting set is magnificent, no doubt. Also, in addition, on the recommendation of the waitress, we took a set of 3 sakes and Japanese whiskey with a hint of smoke - also magnificent. The biggest disappointment was half of the dishes, which were either not tasty (like dried duck), or just ordinary (like cod and mokrel). The teriyaki sauce for mokrel was very salty, most likely heavily mixed with soy sauce. Next, I would like to describe the rating for each of the dishes from the OMAKASE tasting menu: 1. Aperitif. Gorgeous presentation, the taste of the dishes is appropriate (perhaps you could think about replacing the lentils with something else, more vibrant in terms of flavor transitions). 2. Salad. Once again, replace it. 3. Soup. Think about a more exciting presentation. Regular chicken soup, but the ginger added interest in the flavor transitions. 4. Sushi. The presentation of the wagyu sushi is charming and the smell of smoke is simply magical. The other sushi could be served on a high wooden stand since they are eaten with your hands. The sushi is not particularly tasty. 5. - Regular cod - Wagyu steak is delicious at 10/10 - Dry duck - Regular mokrel, too much teriyaki sauce (very salty). 6. Dessert. Great presentation, the matcha cake was very heavy and they didn't give us dessert selections. Also a recommendation to add a small amount of sorbet between sushi and main courses. This will make it easier to accept the taste of the main courses after fish and rice.

    We visited to celebrate a birthday. We could not ask for a better vibe. The food was unique, beautifully presented, and tasted delicious. Service was very attentive. Cannot wait until I get the opportunity to visit again!

    Mein Besuch lässt sich mit einem Wort beschreiben: BEGEISTERT! Wir waren zu zweit und hatten beide das Omakase Menü, absolut frische Produkte, künstlerisch angerichtet mit perfektem, freundlichen Service. Ebenso die Sake, welche ich zum ersten Mal getrunken habe, war für mich ein Erlebnis. Preislich gehoben, aber für das gebotene, das handwerkliche, absolut gerechtfertigt und jeden Cent Wert. Wer japanische Küche auf höchsten Niveau erleben möchte, ist hier genau richtig. Ich werde sicher wiederkommen, vielen Dank für einen tollen Abend ans Team.
