"Mi fossi limitato a ordinare il sushi, la recensione avrebbe avuto 4 stelle. Mi rincresce doverne dare tre, perché il personale è stato estremamente cordiale nei nostri confronti, il locale è accogliente e i prezzi sono onesti: purtroppo, però, gli spaghetti di soia e di riso erano salatissimi. Mi è stato riferito da clienti abituali che di norma non è così, quindi probabilmente tornerò. Aggiornamento in data 25/01/2026: ho pranzato nuovamente in questo locale. Gli spaghetti erano nettamente meno salati, e ho molto apprezzato il pollo alla piastra con le patate. Purtroppo, però, a questo giro le alghe del sushi non avevano un buon sapore. Consiglio comunque questo locale, conscio però della qualità altalenante di alcuni ingredienti."

"Good selection of Japanese, Chinese and Italian food. All available both "all you can eat" and "a la carte". The service was initially quick but then they forgot to bring us some vegetarian dishes we ordered. Good price-product quality. Nice sashimi but sometimes the rolls have too much rice and too little fish in them. Very spacious and comfortable place, light atmosphere and illuminated ambient."

"Buffet-style Japanese/Chinese/Italian "fusion" restaurant. In the middle of nowhere, but surprisingly good food. You order via the little tablets they bring you, letting you add additional dishes or find out more throughout the night. Food was great, service fast; it was clean and the atmosphere relaxed. Not greatest atmosphere in the world, but overall a very nice eatery"

"Unique service, wonderful setting, incredibly delicious food. I can't remember the last time I had such good quality food. For 25 euros you can order as much as you can eat. It's divine! I rarely have any complaints, but this restaurant exceeded my expectations a hundredfold."
