The sushi is fresh and has a distinctive flavor, very good. We also received a complimentary meal from the kitchen, a pleasant surprise.nnThe only thing is that space can be limited, and it's recommended to make a reservation before going to get a good table.

I think the price is disproportionate for the service and food they offer.n11,000 pesos for a lemonade...nI liked the gyozas, the sushi left a lot to be desired, and the shrimp appetizer was average.nThe place is nice and cozy.nHowever, I wouldn't go back or recommend it.

I went as a dinner with friends, the atmosphere was calm, discreet, relaxed, the food tasted very good, very fresh and fair portions on the plates, the waitresses were super attentive and with short waiting times in table service, the only thing that would improve is more main dishes on the menu, but excellent experience, recommended

It is one of the best pure Japanese restaurants in Bogotá. It is important to keep the expectation adjusted to the traditional seasoning in Japan, which is light flavors, as it is clearly different from what one is used to trying in Bogotá (many Asian fusion places with strong flavors).nnMy favorite place in Bogotá to go for sake and Karaage!
