Best Authentic Japanese restaurants in Brazil

Very good Lamen, I will go there again!

Good food and great place to sit down and eat a traditional Japanese food. They speak Portuguese and Japanese, if you're not from Brazil they probably will be able to talk Japanese with you. A really great experience.

Some of the best sushi I’ve ever had! A must visit. The wagyu and salmon were particularly delicious. Love from Canada! 🇨🇦

Goof food, nice service and friendly space.

Excellent Japanese food in the Liberdade neighborhood! The prices can be high, but during weekdays they have an “executive menu” with more affordable options! It was worth it! It was busy at lunchtime, but I had no issues finding a table without a previous reservation!

Seeing the 4.7* rating on Google Maps, we were very excited to try Sushi Kenzo. Unfortunately, we were sorely disappointed. Although the platter looked good, the fish was not very fresh and didn’t taste anywhere close to a 4.7*. Thank goodness I didn’t end up with food poisoning !

Service was also poor, we had to ask several times for our tea to be refilled, and waited a long time for our receipt. Posting this review here to help even out the super positive ratings, since potential customers ought to know…

The fish is really fresh and the tasty is amazing. A really good traditional Japanese food. A better experiencie is eating downstairs close to the sushi man :D

Just one word: outstanding!! Don't mind the other reviews telling you that this is not a traditional place. Check this tirashi I ordered and see for yourselves :)

Solid sushi in the most popular street in Liberdade. Their executive lunch menu was at a default price point (80BRL). It is definitely one category below omakase places like Kan or Makoto-san, but is way above average quality and stays pretty authentic.

I love Japanese food and don’t mind paying for good quality Omakase. Unfortunately, that was not my experience at Kenzo today. We ordered an omakase experience that costed $350 reais (definitely on the higher end, even for a city like São Paulo), but the freshness of the fish, rice and way of serving them (all at once, almost rushed) was subpar. Rice was already hardened, the starter was a salmon fried head (the one you usually discard), no premium cuts - like the fattier parts of Toro or uni. Felt like i could order the same order over the counter paying 1/3 of the price.

The reservation and service from host and waiter was great, but unfortunately I could not recommend less the omakase experience. Won’t come back.

Execellente

All you can eat buffet is served during lunch time and it was good. Sashimi was small but taste was good. Niguiri sushi and remain were good as well. Tables and environmental factors were very nice. I recommend this place. The price per person was 69.90.

Great taste

The service is excellent, the food is very good, I'll definitely come back here!

Ok

My favourite Japanese restaurant ever
