I recently dined at this Japanese restaurant in Argentina, and I have to say, it was quite a letdown. If you're a fan of weird and exotic Japanese food, you might be intrigued, but don't expect an authentic experience. Flavor-wise, the dishes were overwhelmingly salty, lacking the delicate umami flavors you'd typically find in Asian cuisine.
I ordered the Pad Thai, hoping for that perfect blend of sweet, sour, and savory flavors, but all I got was an overly salty dish that tasted more like soy sauce stir-fried noodles. It was so salty, it must have affected my health.
Next, I tried the stir-fried pork, which turned out to be the best of the four dishes I ordered, but even that was just average. The rice accompanying it was far from satisfying, and there were even worse aspects to come.
My hopes were high for the Sushi Tokyo, expecting a classic and authentic sushi experience. However, what arrived at my house was far from it. The sushi had strange fruit sauces that clashed with the traditional flavors, leaving me disappointed and craving something more genuine.
But the real low point was the Poke bowl. It came in a tiny portion compared to the other dishes, and the fish didn't seem very fresh. To make matters worse, it was drenched in a passion fruit sauce that did not complement the dish at all. It had the potential to be good, but it turned out to be a disaster.
I'm usually very open in trying new foods, but this was just unacceptable.
Overall, I cannot recommend anyone to dine at this restaurant, especially if you're visiting Argentina. It's not only a waste of money, but you could easily find a better and more authentic meal elsewhere in the area. Save yourself the disappointment and explore other dining options.

I went with a couple of friends and we ordered from different restaurants, Ai ramen was very good, it also had a good price with re ratio of the food. They had their typical Uruguayan barbecue inside which was very tender and even though I did not expect much, it exceed my expectations. the atmosphere was very nice, it looked very clean i I loved it alot. Would recommend if you are in Montevideo
