Peruvian-Japanese nikkei cooking with a Smoked Negroni to match

The ceviche Robata and the Wagyu nigiri are the dishes that come up in almost every review. Nikkei shapes everything here, not one section of a broader Asian-fusion list.

The cocktail list gets nearly as much attention as the food. The Caribbean Ananá and a Smoked Negroni get singled out repeatedly. It shares its plaza with Caruso and Vuelve a la Vida, part of Naco's densest dining block.

    Another must try Japanese restaurant and one of the best in town. Together with Samurai and Makoto, I think they are the 3 top high class Japanese restaurants. Important to mention Okazu, which is also outstanding, as a fusion Nordic Japanese concept, all 4 with different offerings but all extremely well ranked. We had a combo of oniguiris (sushis) that was perfect, the Niguiri Tasting. It comprises 6 varieties of oniguiris selected by the chef. Also, we could not forget the robatas, the waguy and chicken ones. Everything delicious. Service was perfectly flawless.

    Some of the best meats and fish I've had in a long time. Service was phenomenal, Yoryi guided us through the menu with expertise this past Monday evening.

    We had a really good experience. The service is great (shoutout to Yoryi, our waiter, who was super friendly and attentive). Food is really good and prices are accordingly. The music was a little bit too loud for my liking. Loved this place. Would definitely recommend 10/10. We’d definitely recommend the Murasaki and Maki Salmon Furai.. I mean, look at these pictures! They were amazing.
