The food was decent and the ambiance was nice. We started with the chef's choice, which was the ceviche. I highly recommend it. Our main dishes were the Spicy Tuna Special and the Suzuki. I also appreciated that they offered free cokes for making reservations. Additionally, we were also pleased with the service. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Only downside was that the music was too loud for my liking. We could've done without it.

We visited El Japonez today to celebrate two birthdays. The service was great and overall the food was amazing. Here, you can go safe to orden classic sushi rolls that you might have tried in other places, but my recommendation is to date to try some of the signature dishes that are really worth of trying.

With this in mind, my recommendation is to order the rib eye rolls... Simply amazing. Also there is a signature roll that is lighted up at your table called El Patron: An spicy tuna roll with species with a mixed sauce made is Siracha, Mayonnaise and the house sauce. The Volcanes week also increíble: three small tostadas to taste different seasoned flavours: Shrimp, rib eye and tuna. Cocktails are very good also. We had some grilled pineapple cocktail with lemon and mezcal and other with berries. Both were great and fresh.

Of course, I ordered Mezcal and it is very well presented with grilled fruits and vegetables. I recommend the Pierde Almas Tobala mezcal here. It is difficult to find somewhere else and it good to remind you that although you are at a Japanese restaurant, you are still enjoying Mexico.

Excellent food! You have to try the nigiri experience, the wagyu is delicious and the king crab is so tasty, tuna with mustard sauce is a great choice. The Japanese whiskey Iwai is a great recommendation.

Nice place, average food. The ambiance is good but food was not as good. The sushi tempuras are not done fresh and spring rolls not recommended since they are not crunchy at all.

Everything in their menu is really good. There is a lot of variety too. Staff is friendly and service is super fast. The terrace is great, so cozy, and with a great view surrounded by nature. Their fresh drinks are delicious, loved the lemon cucumber water. Beef is great, a lot of quality. Overall an awesome place for Japanese food.

The food was very disappointing. Ordered ramen and 2 sushi rolls and had little flavor. Overall ambiance of the restaurant was nice though.

Excellent dishes, but there was a bit too much cream cheese in a lot of rolls. Nevertheless, the tiradito was the best one I have ever had. Service was excellent as well.
