So glad we did! It was by far the best meal we had during our whole trip. The steaks were very high quality and delicious. Even the steak on the children's menu was excellent (and not over-cooked like they can be on children's menus at restaurants in the US). The side dishes were also very good, as was the wine. Because we were in Germany, the price was half of what we would have paid just over the border. I travel to Basel regularly and plan to visit Mendoza Steakhouse often.

Found this place while driving around and saw their "american" beef menu which looks pretty interesting (they even list a tomahawk!) But since we arrived around 330pm, their "meat" menu doesnt statt until 5pm so we ordered some pasta. Food came out very quick and hot. Good flavor and good service. Definitely tastes house made. Large portions were filling. Would recommend! 2nd Visit on 1 Sep 2019. After our first visit, we were very impressed and decided to try it again. I decided to go for what they were advertising, their T Bone steak and my wife got the Pesto penne pasta. The restaurant was extremely busy so we knew it would be a wait. Everyones food that came out looked awesome so we were excited. When the food finally came, presentation was great, however that was it. The penne pasta taste was off. Just tasted like tons of butter. The t bone was the biggest disappointment. The steak was tough and looked like it was cooked frozen, even though the waitress denied it was frozen, i can cleaely tell it was. Also I ordered it medium rare, it came out medium well.

What a find in Basel! Think of this as Japanese fusion. The staff was really nice and friendly, and…read morethe food was great. I ordered the tuna tataki and the surf and turf, and everything came out great. They have a small conveyor belt sushi on one end of the restaurant and a teppanyaki table on the other. The setup is really nice - sit at the teppanyaki if there are seats available and watch your food being cooked. The portions are generous. The tuna was seared nicely and the sauce was delicious. The surf and turf came with shrimp which had an amazing butter sauce. And the filet was perfectly cooked to medium raw - so tender. Presentation of the food was also nicely done.

We are visiting Basel from Hawaii after the Viking River Cruise and we were craving good sushi,…read moretempura and a bowl of rice. We were lucky to find HATTORI SUSHI AND STEAKHOUSE right next to our hotel(Radisson BLU Hotel). We were greeted by the owner Nick who made us feel very welcome. The decor of the restaurant had an Asian flair and an ambience that was very comfortable. The restaurant had a moving sushi bar with an array of choices and Teppanyaki U shape counter. Hattori opened 5 Months ago. To start we had the Shrimp and Vegetable Tempura and Ahi Tuna Tataki with a Kirin Premium beer. The Tempura was light and crispy with a flavorful dipping sauce. The Tuna Tataki was seared to perfection with the right amount of seasoning and topped with daikon/sauce. The Steak was done medium rare with a variety of sautéed mushrooms including shiitake. It was plated with a nice delicate sauce with cubed gelatin flavored with shiitake mushroom dashi, mirin, shoyu and sake. Chef Alek served us his soft and tasty Homemade bread with a marinated broccoli spread. Executive Chef Alek's creations are so tasty. We ended the dinner with shot of Yamasaki Whiskey which won a world title as best in class and Sweet Umeshu. It was an excellent meal and we felt at home with the friendly staff and owner. We highly recommend Hattori Sushi/Steakhouse and hope you all will check it out. Your taste buds will be treated to an awesome epicurean experience!

Its all great. I eat…read morea lot of steak and thoroughly enjoyed this one. The meat is cooked to temperature throughout, not easy but I have mastered this at home. Medium rare top to bottom, end to end. The aged "luma" entrecôte was fantastic. I will say though that I was expecting the ribeye which is traditional entrecôte but they serve the strip. So many languages here confusion is very common. Service was good and prices are typically sky high Swiss. It was all good and I will be back when needing a steak fix...

Essentially no complaints about this place the steaks were very well cooked (we ended up taking…read moremost of my dining companion's home for the day after), the chorizo & black pudding starter was tasty, the service was considerate & efficient and the beer was cheap. Chips, onions & baked potato were all well cooked and the toppings for the bread were fresh and varied (the red one being properly spicy). Apparently there's a better steak house a couple of stops further up the railway line but no chance of me making a visit there any time soon so for now El Gaucho is the top choice in the area. Made it back here last weekend and things were up to the same level generally although the grilled onions were over-salted. The cucumber salad (ordered in error) was as it turned out a welcome change as a starter.

A proper steak needs to be professionally aged so it doesn't feel like a shoe sole cut off a cow an hour ago. That's what one pays a premium for, it has to bite like butter.

The rest of the meal and general preparation was OK but stay away from medium rare and lower...

Soon after I sat down, the waitress came to pour regular coffee for me without asking what I would like. I asked for decaf coffee instead. I got decaf coffee after a while, but it is very concentrated. I asked for hot water and milk. It did not come for quite a while. There were about 4-5 waitress working in the area. I asked a waitress when I got up to get fruits. She asked me to just sit down and wait. I finally got hot water, still no milk. When I am more than half way through my breakfast. I got up to ask for milk again, this time the waitress I asked told me to get it from cereal bar myself. So, I brought my coffee mug there to get milk. It is really annoying to have to get up to fill my coffee cup with milk, especially seeing the guy next to me has milk on his table. I finally asked for milk to bring to my table one more time, and waited there for 5-8 more minutes. I simply did not have time to wait for milk any more. After I finished my breakfast, I got up with an empty mug on my table to fetch more milk. Just as I was back to my table, milk was finally brought to my table. The trouble I had to go through to get milk for coffee ruined my experience in this reputable hotel.
