MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

One Star: High quality cooking

An intimate Japanese-style restaurant close to Sants railway station, featuring a bar (there are also a few tables) where guests can eat while watching young chef Yoshikazu Suto at work. The ambience here is more that of a private house in which the staff are cooking for you rather than a restaurant. The Omakase menu on offer here (which combines hot and cold dishes and is served to all guests at the same time) features highly personalised Japanese-style recipes, followed by delicious nigiri that are truly unforgettable and prepared with the best-quality fish imaginable. Additional interest here is provided by the chef’s aunt, who has created the artisanal-style crockery, and the impressive machine used to make kakigori, a traditional Japanese ice cream. One dish that particularly impressed us was the mackerel escabeche, served in two small tacos with shichimi (a blend of seven Japanese spices) sprinkled on top.
