We walked in here in our flip-flops and shorts right off the beach and felt a little out of place in this high-class joint. The sushi was not bad but it wasn't amazing in any way. Worth going to if you want to have a little bit of a fancy dinner rather than the regular (and tasty) street fare.

It's very big rarity out of Japan. Even Otoro is real Otoro! Not how it would be at Tokyo tsukidzhi market but close. Otoro Sushi is twice more priced than in Cukigi but due delivery. It is really expensive If you like eat fresh Otoro.

We were drawn in by the atmosphere, it looked very stylish compare to thr surrounding. Host was kind, waitress were not so helpful. Price is ok considering it is a tourist area. Sushi and sashimi materials were fresh and good standard quality. Other special dishes were just plain, compare to good old Japanese restaurant in Bangkok. No special or signature... More

This little restaurant doesn't look like much, but we were in the mood for something non-Thai for a change and ended up in this little place near our hotel. Since we don't eat sushi, we always order cooked food in Japanese restos. The teppanyaki was excellent, really fresh and flavorful! The teriyaki and the soup were also fantastic, as was... More

Easily one of my favourite restaurants in Samui never mind Chaweng. I have lived on Koh Phangan for about 4 years now so am a fairly regular visitor to Samui and although I normally choose to stay in the Bophut area I always make my way into Chaweng to get another bite from here. The food is great (with fresh... More

Definitely my new favourite sushi restaurant on Samui. Good quality fish, with reasonable prices. Service was excellent. Only complaint? Menu is unnecessarily long and complicated. Otherwise no complaints.....I will be back soon.

Great restaurant , grab a private room with sunken table , starters are nice and the portions are good. The crispy salmon skin is nice.

Impressive decor is all this place has going for it. The menu is over complicated and uninspiring. Tried one dish as we were skeptical to order more and we were underwhelmed with the dish so didn't bother ordering more. The sushi didn't taste bad, it just wasn't worth the cost and didn't feel the quality was that great.

WHAT A TREAT ;-). This sushi restaurant is a GREAT addition to all the great eateries in Chaweng. WE LOVE SUSHI ..so do our friends, we were so thrilled to find this excellent place. We went several times during our 6 week holiday here, with groups of friends, and as a couple. The service is first class, and their menu... More
