    The Japanese food is very unique but not authentic. I tried their sashimi and the color seemed to be slight off but I didn't get sick. So I guess that was ok. The rolls were not bad but not wow either. It does take a while for them to bring the food over. Service was ok. Just a bit slow. I also tried the spring rolls here. Bad mistake. The skin was too thick. It was big and filling. I had the curry mahi fish and it was over cooked. Better to stick with the sushi and sashimi. Only complain is that they cut the sashimi paper thin and still it was not cut properly.

    This restaurant is located at the Dreams hotel. A reservation is needed for the hibachi grill. When we had made a reservation with the concierge, they didn't ask us how many people (they assumed two), so we forgot to tell them we had 5 people in our party. We ended up eating at the regular restaurant. It was close to closing so they had run out of salmon sashimi. We got the tuna sashimi (nice, large pieces), the pad thai (kinda spicy), the king pao chicken (nothing special) and the fried rice (tasty, but really salty and barely had any shrimp and was a small portion).

    Killer design of a restaurant! Although most of the plants were fake didn't deter me from loving the ambiance. Service was quick and attentive, wasn't super hungry so didn't order a lot. The Asian fusion style was interesting, the rolls were a bit sad. Didn't see anyone doing the hibachi/teppanyaki on the far side of the entrance and was curious how well they did it. Maybe next time For sure would return and try other items when famished. Fun place with a cool vibe about it!

    Himitsu is the Japanese Asian Fusion style restaurant located in the Now Resort, next door to the Secrets Resort. There are two types of seating for this restaurant, walk in or making a reservation for the Benihana type grill table. There are limited seats for the grill table, so make sure to book ahead. The first dinner we had, we ordered a variety of appetizers and sushi rolls to share. We has a tempura shrimp, the spicy tuna, thai beef salad, gyoza and tiradito. On my birthday, we had a reservation for the grill. My guy pre-ordered and paid for a bottle of wine, which the guy next to us assumed was free and started drinking our wine. We tried to explain that it was our bottle, but he ignored us and wasn't worth fighting over. Service was great and the selection of fish was incredibly fresh and full of flavor.

    There is good and bad about this resultant. I'm gonna talk about the pros and the cons of this restaurant. Pros: kids are welcomed, nice presentation,quick service, friendly staff, and the shrimp was great. The fried ice cream is what really saved the review and got the 3rd star. Cons: the chefs are inexperienced and our chef even cooked part of an egg shell into the fried rice. The fried rice is both burned while cooked and under cooked while prepped. So be prepared for crunchy rice. The vegetables are pretty bland, the sushi is gross and looks like it was taken from the lunch buffet. I didn't order the beef but I tried a piece and like most restaurants on the property the beef is slightly undercooked.

    Of all the restaurants at this resort (Secrets Vallarta Bay) - this is by far the best one for overall experience. Food presentation is well put together Taste - 3 stars I ordered the Peking Duck Wrap - came back another night just for this - 4.5* Tom Yum soup - just a soup base with a splash of soy sauce, a few chili flakes, shrimp and glass noodles. Not bad but not the authentic real deal obviously - 4.5* Miso Soup - big chunks of shitake mushrooms and seaweed. Same soup base as tom yum minus the chili - 4.5 stars Shrimp dumpling - 0* not worth it, wrappers way too soggy and shrimp was undercooked Shrimp and pork gyoza - 0* not worth it, they were shy on the panfry so therefore the dumplings looked more steamed than fried. Same look as the shrimp dumpling except pork was added. Pad thai - good presentation - super salty but good if you like it. Its more of a chow mein with wide rice noodles than pad thai - 4* California roll and sashimi - good presentation but the sashimi is always warm. Try it but eat it first as it quickly becomes room temperature. Tepanyaki - good presentation and experience. Everything doused in soy sauce. 4* My ratings are based on the Mexican way of cooking Japanese/Asian fusion. It has nothing to do with the actual taste of authenticity. This would be my first choice and would return at least one more time during my stay. Oh and of course, Service - 5*
