While on a business trip in Brussels I got stuck in a horrible hotel on the Avenue Louise and was…read moreover the moon to find a Japanese restaurant in the neighbourhood. Now, little did I know that this was gonna turn out to be an awesome restaurant! I liked everything about it: The decor is minimalist, juts concrete and wood, most of the the tables are benches, the owners/staff are way hipper than I am, and the food sounded promising. I ordered some Sashimi for starters which was a good choice and the Spicy pork ramen as a main, which turned out to be excellent! My spot at the bar allowed me to see the food coming out of the kitchen, and the Tuna salad looked amazing and would be my go to try next time round! The staff was very friendly and attentive as well. I'm definitely gonna come back, next time I'm in town.

Okay, really a 3-star place but because this was exactly what we were looking for to satisfy our…read moreramen craving while abroad, it gains an extra star. A disclaimer: I realize that I'm probably spoiled by the mass of ramen joints that are in the Bay Area. As a result, I judge ramen places pretty highly. The 3-star rating is not to say that the ramen was terrible, but it is certainly not ranked among the best. Tonkotsu Ramen. Usually when I think of tonkotsu, I think of a rich and flavorful broth, as tonkotsu is traditionally stewed from pork bones for hours and hours. This broth fell a bit short of flavorful. The noodles, pork, and toppings were delicious (I always appreciate a perfectly soft boiled egg), but the broth is really what makes or breaks a ramen to me. Kara Miso Ramen. For those who like a bit of spice with their ramen. Or maybe not a bit of spice? I'm usually a super wimp when it comes to spice, and the slightest hint will have me reaching for a glass of water to rinse it all out. This one didn't do too much for me. I felt a little bit of heat lingering on my tongue afterwards, but I was expecting a bigger kick. The meat on this bowl was also a little dried out. I can definitely see why this place would do well in this neighborhood; it fulfills a need that is missing, which is exactly why we ventured into Umamido. Great for an area that is slim on authentic ramen choices; not so great for someone who comes from an area that is saturated with ramen.

And the quantity was perfect. I ordered a nice warm sake, and when it turned cold, it was still even better.

I have noticed though that the tempura is not always the same. When I visited this place before the tempura was made like in Japan and it was superb but this time it was more like a beignet and they served teriyaki sauce with it. It's not bad but a bit disappointing when you expect the real stuff with Japanese tempura sauce. The sushi's are nice and fresh, one bite size nigiri's. The miso soup lacked the sea weed and tofu, taste was ok. Overall a good experience, more original sushi's and dishes on the menu than the average sushi venues. If they would make it a little more like in Japan it could be even better.

My roommate and I wanted sushi delivered, and we found Sushi Factory. Looking through the menu…read moreonline, it looked promising so we decided to try it out. I ordered the Cali Crazy set (€20) and we also got a couple ice creams (€3 each). For that price, we were expecting pint size Ben & Jerry's but we were very disappointed when we received the tiny cups. It took around 45 minutes for us to receive our delivery but it was great that we got 20% off for ordering at least €50,00 worth of food. The rice was not bad (which I normally find to be a hard, chewy problem with sushi places here in Bruxelles), but what rendered the 1 star was the fact that I got sick within 20 minutes after eating not 6 pieces of my maki sushi. My roommate had some tuna and salmon nigiri that I tried (and immediately spit back out) and she also said her stomach wasn't doing so well. I think it's safe to say I'll find somewhere else to order sushi on a Sunday.

Got miso soup, yakitori, and 20 pieces of sushi per person. Had we not used the Groupon I think I would have been pretty disappointed. There was nothing really special about the food. It was tasty, but pretty bland when it came to their selection of California style rolls. The wife had the dimsum and it looked okay, but like it came from a box. Our friends had the goyza and the Japanese salad for an entree. The salad had way too much dressing, and the goyza also looked like it was from a box. Pretty solid value if you go here with the Groupon, otherwise, you'll probably be disappointed and unsatisfied with the price and menu.

OK, so even if this place is expensive (same range as some other high quality sushi places in…read moreBrussels though), it totally deserves its 5-star. Not only will you go to sushi/sashimi heaven, but it is such a joy to watch the sushi chef cut your fish (when you're sitting at the bar). I fell in love with him. Old Japanese man, cutting his fish with all the love he has. He could seriously do it blindfolded. The place itself is very discrete. Nothing too fancy, as well from the outside as inside. From outside, you might even hesitate to enter. However, please do not (if you have the splurge of course). You will not be disappointed. Sushi and sashimi are exquisite, every bite brings you closer to heaven. Offering sea urchin sushis tells you how great this place can be. The non-sushi and non-sashimi dishes are delicious as well and everything that is on the menu makes you want to try it out. We had some appetizers to share: clam miso soup (very good, but maybe really too expensive for what it is. Next time, we'd rather go for this other clam noodle soup that looked succulent, only a little more expensive but a much bigger quantity) and the chawanmushi (flan eel with king crab) which was to die for. King crab was really king crab. Delicious! As for our main course, we had the big sashimi plate and the wagyu beef. Definitely a foodgasm. After that, we still wanted to keep tasting the rest, as everything was so good. So, we decided to order some extra sea urchin sushis (we first wanted sashimi style, but the chef was so nice to warn us that that would be way too expensive, so we decided to stay with the sushi ones) and we definitely did not regret to end our meal this way. Well, we still ordered some ice creams (green tea and black sesame) to really end our dinner and to give us some time to consider already what we could try on our next visit here. I noticed they have some very affordable lunch menus. That should definitely be worth the detour if you don't want to empty your bank account. Anyways, for me, this is my new favourite Japanese "joint", just because I fell in love with the sushi chef.

It is certainly a strong contender to that title. Chef Suetsugu Yosuke has brought 30 years of…read moreexperience as a sushi master in Japan all the way to our plates in Brussels. The restaurant is a favorite of the Japanese community, so be sure to book as it is not big and always very busy. Sushi and sashimi are fantastic. Alone they make this place special, but the rest of the menu simply adds to it by offering a range of delightful dishes which are worth trying. Sit at the sushi counter on a first visit, always nice to see the chef working his magic. Food aside, the place is very nice though unfortunately service is sometimes below average. It is also not cheap, even maybe a bit overpriced, but that is unfortunately common for any good high end Japanese restaurants in Brussels.

The place is not cheap, but to keep in mind for a special occasion.

The two gentlemen that run this establishment have a great passion for wine and food. It really shows in the time they take with each customer. They made great selections and had us try each to make sure we liked the wine. And of course we did. On this last visit, we started with a mix plate of cheeses and chorizo. Then moved on to fresh oysters and razor clams. The sauce on the clams was so good, we ate it up with a spoon. For our mains, we had suckling pig, steak and duck. All amazing and a wine pairing with each course. Prices are very reasonable for such delicious food and wine. This beautiful venue is a must try. And who doesn't love a good wine cave.
