Chef Yamamoto serves gorgeous dishes, which he prepares front of house for all to see. His broth is delicious and the tofu was meltingly soft. His signature of 'Griet' fish done 3 ways is a revelation. The jelly is given texture by the addition of Griet roe, and the sashimi of the same fish is lightly cured and seasoned by being pressed in seaweed for 24h. Wonderful dish where everything just works. Price and quality are startling with various appetisers and immaculate dishes coming your way before finishing with a plate of generous sushi. Otoro tuna, Unagi etc. we'll crafted, with his rice being exceptional. The staff is sweet and friendly, and due to the fact that the small team is just starting, you get the feel of eating a surprisingly excellent meal in someone's sitting room. Almost homely, if it weren't for the quality and technique displayed here. Definitely a place we'll be following.

Very disappointed with the quality of food that was served. The chicken was deep fried, and yet…read moresomehow still had feathers attached. Who wants to eat deep fried chicken feathers?! Disgusting. The tempura sushi roll was cold and soggy-- seemingly prepared some time ago and then attempted to be served fresh. All in all, I was left dissatisfied and concerned with the overall preparation of my food. Hopefully others have a more positive experience than I.

Seriously, they watered-down the soy sauce. Who does that. I would dip the sushi in the sauce and…read moreit'd still be white and without any soy flavour. Suppose they always water it down and this time (accidentally) too much! Stupid of them to save money on this. Super weird.

I've only been there once so the review is merely based on that one visit, but the experience that…read moreI had was not so great. The reasons are... - the rice on the sushi was a bit overcooked - too much rice on the sushi - the fish didn't seem so fresh and flavorful It's not the worst sushi I've tasted, but for the price that we paid, I find it a bit disappointing. I have yet to find a sushi place in Rotterdam that is actually run by Japanese. On a positive note, a friend of mine recently ordered a take-out from them... I didn't taste the sushi, but they looked much better than when I dined there. So maybe they have gotten better since my visit.

My GF offered me a sushi kit but i'm not a real master of sushi making so i stick to my regular orders. Fugu is not my favorite sushi place for only one reason, their roles are to damn bib! The ingredients are fresh, the rolls are perfectly made, their rice is authentic, they don't overpack your order but their roles are to damn big... Maybe its just me but i like to get the whole role in my mouth and have that explosion of flavor and i just can't with this huge rolls. Either way, fully recommend to try as the quality of the Ingredients is top!
