    What an amazing place. Coming from NYC I can say that the highest of end places don't come close to…read moreZen sushi. The quality and execution along with the sushi chefs and servers are on point. The sake is a great choice and pairing it with the Tuna tar tar was a great combo. The wakame salad was a real wakame salad and if you're coming from the states...trust me you never had a real seaweed salad until Zen sushi. Overall a great experience and amazing food...GET IN HERE!

    I've been to Krakow several times and tried sushi in a number of places; similarly in Warsaw. Zen…read morereally sets a very high standard. The sushi chefs are exceptionally considerate in their preparations and I've yet to encounter fish here that wasn't fresh which is not at all the case on several other places I've tried in the area. At the end of the day I eat sushi more often than anything else and I travel extensively. Zen is easily on part or above most top end sushi place in terms of prep and clearly at the top of the list in Poland regarding ingredients... this isn't the fish market on Tokyo (where I ate last week) but for Europe it's great. Also be sure to check out their little Japanese runs upstairs. I didn't even realize they were there until yesterday. Wow... I just some people to do some private dining with... anyway enjoy this place. I will continue to.

    It was my last day in Kraków and I desperately wanted to try some sushi before leaving. Youmiko…read morestarts at 2 p.m. and I was the first customer ready for "the best sushi ever!" When making the reservation, I wanted to have a nice table, and be sure that I was expected right after opening. The restaurant is tiny. With four small tables at the ground level, and a small room in the basement next to the restroom, it could be a crowded dining experience. The bar is too narrow with uncomfortable-looking seats to be an attractive option, at least for me. I was on time. I immediately noticed that the server had an attitude. She was nonchalant, and not particularly friendly. It was the opposite of any experience I'd had in any Japanese restaurant before. I chose the omakase, which has fourteen pieces / 7 courses. As I sipped a Sapporo beer, I was excited to sample what this place had to offer. The clubbing background tune wasn't the best choice for an early, hot and lazy afternoon. The first bite was the 'European Sea Bass Nigiri'. It was served with way too warm rice. When I picked it up it fell apart. Right after that I got a 'Seared Salmon Belly Nigiri', and again, I didn't like the rice at all. 'The Spicy Tuna Gunkan Maki' was tasty and refreshing. I also thought the 'Salmon Cake' was delightful. The 'Eggplant and Avocado', could be an excellent vegan choice. Next, three pieces of 'Salmon with Passion Fruit Hosomaki' were just fine. The last six pieces were 'Shrimp Tempura Futomaki'. It was very good, but I wouldn't expect that with any omakase. It was just too ordinary and nothing special, plus not what I would order in the first place. Perhaps my expectations were too high and anything other than omakase on the menu would have been more satisfying. Also their rice was a failure. I assume, coming right after opening wasn't the best idea. The price I paid was rather high considering Polish realities. Plus the quality of service didn't help to feel good about the whole experience. I tipped, but didn't hear even a little 'thank you' or anything when I was leaving the restaurant. I'm not planning to return anytime soon.

    I ate here last year and still think about it. A Michelin star needs to be headed their way…read more Amazing vegan sushi. I dream of it. I'm not kidding.

    Hana Sushi has been on my list of places to visit for a long time, but something always gets in the…read moreway. For example, they recently underwent a renovation. The new interior looked beautiful in the photos, and I knew I had to check it out. It was a Sunday evening. Spontaneously, without any reservations, I decided to drop by Hana Sushi for a bite to eat and a drink. Well, the table I was offered was in one of the two back rooms, and there was nothing available in the renovated main dining area. It was a shame, because when I entered and left, I didn't see many customers. I craved a combo of 'roll & beer'. The expectations were high. Come on! It's a place recognized by Michelin Guide for six years. Finally, the food. The Rainbow Roll didn't impress. My local place serves better, also less expensive. Possibly, I just didn't like the taste of mayo and wished for thicker cuts of fish, or even slightly more rice (I can't believe I wrote that :). Besides, the presentation could have been more creative. Kirin Ichiban, a Japanese beer that turned out to be brewed in Germany, helped the whole experience along. It was light and refreshing, yet had a pleasant kick. Not sure what more to add right now. The restaurant felt very tidy and clean, kind of stiff. The choice of background techno music didn't help. Plus, I had to listen not so much to a conversation as to the monologue of a guy at the next table, who was trying hard to persuade two teenagers to talk to him. It was strange and awkward. He even commented on me taking photos, as if he thought I couldn't hear him, or that it wasn't bad style to interfere in other people's business :). The "patio room" is just a small glass cube. I'm sure Hana Sushi offers solid, great quality food, but I don't think I would be back soon to check this out. I just wasn't hooked.

    Great kimchi and flavorful food. Every part of the meal was delicious and had a nice spice to it…read more The portions were very generous and our service was fast and friendly.

    I really don't understand why all the people who come here expecting high-end Asian food and then…read moregive bad reviews when their expectations aren't met. I mean c'mon, you are in Poland, you can't expect to get Tokyo quality sushi or shabu shabu. We needed a break from streak of Czech/Polish food tour, so we opted for a Japanese night. We got the shabu shabu dinner set for 2, ordered extra mushroom and udon, overall cost was about $55 per person, which is definitely on the higher end, but the meal helped me to reset my taste bud for more Polish meat and beer later. The food was not amazing obviously, but also not terrible. I find that their tofu was very underwhelming (a little too fermented, so tasted a bit too sour for me), but everything else was pretty standard. The beef is not wagyu quality, but was quite tasty with the sauce. I wish their udon wasn't pre-cooked, but it did taste quite good nonetheless. Overall, Krakow fall weather is quite cold, so this was a nice warm meal that went along with the season. By default their pot is split pot. I wish they only had a single pot because the spicy half was totally wasted on us since neither of us can tolerate spice. Sake was nice, but wish they had warm sake as an option. Ambiance was very Japanese-like with classic Japanese decors. Waitress spoke English and was very attentive to our needs. She refilled our broth multiple times. Overall I would come to this place again if you are craving Asian food in Krakow. But don't expect this place to be like California or Tokyo because you are setting the Asian food bar way too high in Eastern Europe. I had a very nice dinner here and got what I came here for. Definitely a nice break from multiple days of Czech/Polish cuisine.

    Well, I had high hopes and while the owner was nice, the staff still needs more service training as…read moreI wanted to try sushi and shabu but was told there were no induction stove top tables available. They didn't even give me an estimate on how long it would be if I would be willing to wait. So I gave in and sat at the sushi bar. The salmon toro was delicious and super buttery. The ramen and dumplings were just good but nothing extraordinary as I would probably not order the dumplings again. The other rolls I ordered were just okay but I'm used to higher quality sushi places. The place is clean and the servers are nice. Since I didn't speak Polish, there was a gap in communication so that's my fault. Service: 3 Food: 3 Ambiance: 3.5 Owner: 4 Overall: 3.25
