"Muito bom. Um excelente custo benefício. Ambiente agradável, silencioso. Fomos muito bem atendidos pelo João. Nota dez. Mal sentamos já nos serviram uma entradinha de boas vindas. Comida saborosa e preço justo. Todos os pratos, quentes e crus vieram muito rápido e com uma apresentação linda. Flores, conchas, sashimis em formato de flor. O empanado dos fritos sequinho e crocante. Pagamos 129 reais num rodízio com bastante variedade, espetinhos, shitake, shimeji lula empanada, polvo, peças trufadas. Só senti falta do tofu no missoshiro e de Nirá incluso no rodízio. Nada que prejudique a boa experiência que tivemos. Recomendo."

"Cute sushi restaurant with very nice staff! Poke bowl was good, but could benefit from a sauce or something on top. Was a tad dry."

"Adorei. Com certeza, eu irei voltar mais vezes. Atendimento, e comida muito bons. O local possui opções bem variadas e originais de pratos. Super recomendo. Nessa minha primeira visita eu pedi o Baterá Sushi Prensado que é salmão, ovas, arroz e raspa de limão siciliano. Para mim, é um sushi retangular e maior que o normal (ver foto). Eu gostei bastante. Atualização: Voltei mais uma vez e, dessa vez, pedi o Boston Spicy (foto), que é uma pasta de atum cozido com maionese picante. E achei muito bom. Eu gostei mais do que o Baterá que pedi na primeira vez."

"Really honestly-priced Japanese food with generous portions! The chirashi had thick and fresh fish pieces on a satisfactory rice. The vegetable tempura is made with large bites, they probably could be a little more delicate. The lamen is good, considering that it is not their specialty."

"Já sou cliente há mais de 1 ano e posso dizer que este é, sem dúvidas, meu restaurante favorito de comida japonesa! Tudo é sempre muito fresco, saboroso e feito com capricho. Preciso elogiar também a Nice e a Ester, que são simplesmente incríveis: super atenciosas, simpáticas e fazem a experiência ser ainda mais especial. A Nice já até sabe que eu não resisto ao mate especial com aquela espuma maravilhosa. Recomendo de olhos fechados! Só vou colocar a foto do mate, pois nunca da tempo de fotografar a comida!"

"I was going to have a gyudon, but found 100 reais to be a bit extravagant. I had a beef teppanyaki instead, which was pretty good. The contrast between the gohan and the steak was quite interesting; but after a while I found myself wanting a bit more variety. They did not have any matcha or sencha, a shame. Overall a decent experience, although somewhat lacking... I don't feel like I'll be coming back anytime soon, but the place may be worth a visit if you've never been here."
