The restaurant's atmosphere has a great balance between cozy and elegant. The dragon roll and Mongolia beef were very yummy, but, unfortunately the Yokawudon was way tooooo salty! It's also a great place for drinks! My lychee something is so tasty and not too sweet. Glad we found this restaurant. Recommend it! Updates: We come back again on December 28, 2024. Ordered Mongolia Beef and Dragon Roll again. Dragon roll is yummy as usual, but they changed Mongolia beef and we preferred the old way, lol. New dishes we tried this time: rock shrimps, fried shrimps with crispy and thick coat, extremely yummy; seafood soup, it tastes good but probably shouldn't order with the shrimp; and shrimp Nikki, it tastes ok but a bit bland. Still recommend this place!!! P.S. They have digital menu but no English version.
The best fresh Japanese food we’ve had! Quick service for a Friday night, yummy drinks, and a great waiter. We highly recommend. A total vibe!
Three years ago I came here and never forgot it! The food, staff and atmosphere are amazing! I sometimes forget we should go at a slower pace and the service is perfectly timed here. Maybe I’ll come back in three years again!
This was our first time dining here while visiting cancun. This is really a beautiful restaurant off of the beaten path. The decor of the restaurant makes you feel very tropical. Our wait staff and bartender (special thanks) were so very attentive, helpful, friendly, and overall impeccable. We dined outside and, for a Monday, treated to a live DJ with a variety of music while dining. All the food was excellent, except I didn't care for the smoked salmon Nigiri. Probably just prepared differently here. Overall, it's a great place! We will make it a definite stop upon our return trip.
This was definitely the best sushi we had in Mexico! It’s been tough finding some good authentic places but here wow I was blown away. The shoyu ramen broth was one of the best I ever had. Great quality, pricing and atmosphere The salmon was also super fresh
I didn't have my phone. My only credit was declined. I went to downtown Cancun alone. I had a hand drawing map and address. I asked people walking down the street. Finally, I found a Japanese restaurant. Finally, I could eat the seafood. I didn't have a phone, so I drew the restaurant. That was the happiest moment in Cancun during my short, horrible vacation - some personal incident happened with my travel companion, not related to beautiful people in Cancun or this awesome restaurant.
My boyfriend and I came to the restaurant at 6 pm and place was empty so that was nice. The service was great and the food amazing! My boyfriend is VEGAN and he found an appetiser, main meal and a dessert! We had the tempura veggie for starters, I had the eel roll and he had veggie pad tai. Everything was sooo delicious!! We were a bit disappointed about the desserts that weren’t great but other then that everything was good. Also the restaurant is very pretty, clean and romantic. Will come again!
The restaurant is excellent! Great service despite the language barrier—the staff were very attentive and helpful. And the food... wow! We enjoyed every single bite. Prices are affordable for everyone. It’s a very calm, neighborhood-style place—nothing pretentious, just fully focused on making and serving delicious, high-quality, and clean food. 5/5
