    Hands down, the coolest restaurant I've been to in Buenos Aires so far. Not only is this place unique in its style and ambiance, but the service is wonderful and the food is out of this world! Reservations, which were recommended in a previous review, can be made easily online. I made one for myself and a friend for a Tuesday night. We ended up being the only ones there, so it wasn't necessary. We had the whole place to ourselves so we sat in the tradtional Japanese area, AKA on pillows on the floor. Pretty cool! Walking in, you'll be amazed at the way this place is decorated. I would go into detail, but you literally just need to see it for yourself. It's unbelievable! The menu is pretty vast, with a good amount of veg options. They also have everything from sushi, to ramen, to kimchi and fried rice. My Porteño friend was a bit leery of ordering since he doesn't eat Japanese food (or anything other than Milanesa and asado, for that matter.) Thankfully, the server (I forget his name, but he was Russian) was very helpful in helping him pick out something that suited his tastes. I ordered a vegetarian version of the same dish, simply because the description on the menu said, "you've never tasted anything like this!!" Boy, were you right, menu. Super crispy fried mushrooms on a bed of shredded lettuce, carrot and cabbage. Riquísimo. Finicky Porteño friend was also moaning in ecstasy over his dish. I was happy. Towards the end of the meal we casually mentioned it was Porteño friend's birthday, and before you knew it, a piece of cheesecake came out with one of those cool sparkly candles! It was a wonderful way to end the night. An easy 5 stars for an incredible experience beginning to end. If you're tired of pizza and asado and looking for a unique dining experience in Buenos Aires, you can bet on Furbaio.

    An expensive place that only takes local cash in 2016 goes backwards in any tendency that would lead to success. It's a big shame.

Ichisou is a bit of a hole in the wall - you might accidentally pass it on the street if you weren't looking for it. Open since the 50s and passed down from generation to generation, this restaurant serves classic Japanese cuisine in a city where this type of food is scarce. We started off the meal with a complimentary raw fish with onion dish and a shot of plum wine. I was able to try the following dishes: -- salmon sashimi and sushi roll: the salmon pieces here were DELICIOUS! I highly recommend getting raw fish. The pieces were thick and fresh. -- agedashi tofu: flavors were good but I wish they used a silkier tofu -- kimchi: apparently Ichisou gets a lot of Korean customers as well, the kimchi is very good and just the right amount of spice and crunch -- vegetable and shrimp tempura: great! Could be crispier -- ebifurai (fried prawn): I liked this better than the shrimp tempura but I thought this could also be more crispy -- chicken karaage (fried chicken): this was the only item I did not like. They came as strange chicken lollipops and were rather dry -- chawansumi (steamed egg): yum! Wish I ordered more of this. -- matcha ice cream: I do not recommend this. The matcha tasted strange, it might be because the richness of Argentinian milk overpowers the delicate matcha flavor. -- chocolate cake: I do recommend this, delicious! I thought most everything I had was really good. I wanted to try more sashimi but Ichisou only had salmon during my visit. It seems that they were busy during the holiday season since they ran out of ginger as well.
