This place is hit or miss. Mostly miss and I do no recommend this place…read more Today for example: 1. Got seated at 2:40pm before lunch closes at 3:00pm. 2. Was shown the lunch portion of the menu and waiter walked away. In the distance could see two waiters disgruntled about I only assume me not being there earlier. As they appeared to be pondering who would wait on me I could see the two "cook" even more disgruntled. Finally when my table was approached and I wanted an item from the lunch menu I was informed it was to late, only bar menu as I watched the two "cook" wanted an early departure. 3. So a burger with onion rings was ordered but served a burger with fries. No temperature was asked concerning my burger. Is management running the place or the staff ? I stay at this hotel often, and with schedule constraints it's my only option. I'm finished with the attitude, lack of management and their cavalier attitude.

The service is great and the menu has a really good variety of options. I especially have to recommend the fries. They're not exactly fries, more like homemade chips, but they're incredibly delicious. That was honestly the highlight for me. The picanha is also excellent, cooked perfectly and full of flavor. Overall, I find the prices very reasonable for the quality of the food and the experience. Definitely a place I'd recommend

Expectations were high as 1.2K folks gave this place a 4.5 average. This combined with the large Japanese population only drove our expectations higher. When we arrived without reservations, we were told that there was no seating available for the rest of the evening. As we waited outside to search for another restaurant, a server came out and told us that they could squeeze us in. They separated a 2 top from a 6 top to accommodate us (yay!). We ordered the grilled squid, but later were informed that they were sold out. We ordered the grilled sardines and fried oyster appetizers. The sardines weren't sardines, but they were flavorful and well grilled. The fried oysters were overcooked and dessicated, but fresh. Our entree was the large sushi sashimi platter. Everything was fresh and flavorful, but maybe due to our expectations, as previously stated, we were underwhelmed. The knife skills, presentation and plating were sadly lacking and below supermarket or airport quality sushi. The rice was hard and some grains were undercooked and all the rice was under vinegared. Again the seafood ingredients were almost as good as that in Tokyo, Osaka, NY or LA, but the plating, cutting skills and overall presentation was not representative of the art of sushi. Trying hard not to sound like a sushi snob, but the training required to be a Itamae, then Taisho is admirable. A major part of the allure of sushi is that half is art for the eyes, half for the pallet. Only the pallet side was represented on this evening.

We had a Brazilian local with us who told them we wanted an "all you can eat" meal. Not sure if that's actually on the menu but you should try for it.

The mushroom starter was different and wonderful and there was a baked whitefish appetizer that was also really good. Then the sushi started. Fantastic. every type of sushi you could think of. We also had beer, sake and desert. All for under $40/person. It was pretty amazing.

It looks quite modern and bright and the staff is very helpful and accommodating. The fish tastes really good and it's super fresh - I love how everything was served at the right temperature, especially the tuna and salmon. The best way to go is to do the all-you-can-eat.. it's very different than the US and the quality is definitely there - It can be pricey though, especially if you order drinks, but it's all worth. Last, I highly recommend ordering the shimeji skillet, it's mushrooms that come in a really good sauce with lots of butter. Order as much as you want and they'll bring it to the table and don't forget to save room for "free" dessert - "Banana flambada with vanilla ice cream is the best.

It tasted yummy for the selection Although I'm not a sushi connoisseur, I have to say that it's unfortunate that you must settle for fake wasabi at such a pricey place. This small detail really amplifies the sushi experience. While I know SP is an expensive place...I do think at this price point, a more interesting selection of fish (imported from Europe or Japan fish markets) could be offered. In the end, despite minor imperfections, nice place for visitors to dine with locals and enjoy SP's Japanese influence.

While all three restaurants offer high quality sushi, they cater to different audiences with different menus at different price points. Located at the corner of the intersection with Jesuino on the ground floor, Nagayama Cafe is generally the most popular of the three with a younger, livelier vibe and more adventurous sushi menu. Come here to people watch for the young and stylish Paulista crowd while experiencing some of the most exciting sushi creations SP has to offer and grooving to a beat that will get you pumped for a night out. The tables here are pretty packed together, the wait is often longer than an hour, and the decor is pretty basic. The menu is focused on only sushi and offers both the classics like California rolls and more experimental rolls or nigiri like the foie gras tuna roll - get it quick before the foie gras ban goes into effect. For the best experience just sit at the bar and let the Brazilian-Japanese chefs tell you what's fresh. This place is a splurge when it comes to price but well worth it if you're in the mood for raw fish, or octopus!
