We make it a family tradition to eat sushi in every city we visit. Being in Polanco, Mexico City's…read moretrendiest neighborhood, we assumed we were about to experience sushi greatness. To be fair--the quality of the fish was five stars. No complaints lthere.Unfortunately, that's where the smooth horse ride became a donkey ride. The service was a solid two stars. Our waiter was clearly trying his best, but this restaurant desperately needs another waiter. We waited so long for sauces that by the time they arrived, we were already halfway through the rolls. It took about 20 minutes for the first dish, and we ordered what we normally order for my wife and I and our 3 teenagers six dishes for five, which then arrived one... at a... time... with long, awkward pauses in between. The specialty rolls are teenie Weenie and very skimpy on the fish. One of my sons wanted another roll but not willing to wait. Best roll of the night was the Alaska roll--credit where credit is due. Now let's talk money. I don't mind spending on good sushi. I expect to. But $3,950 pesos ($232 USD before tip) for five people and leaving less full than a typical sushi night in Los Angeles? That one hurt. Back home, we eat for the same price--and we leave satisfied. Upside: only three green teas were ordered, but they were excellent, high-quality, and probably the most consistent thing all night. Bottom line: amazing fish, painfully slow service, small portions, and a bill that made us double-check the exchange rate. If you come here, drink a full glass of water beforehand to feel satiated--or bring a snack. I wanted to give them a three but I always do with my wife wants and she said give them a four to be nice.

I stayed at the Hyatt Regency & since this restaurant is located in my hotel we found out that this restaurant is the original restaurant before it was the Hyatt Regency & glad they kept it! I ordered a few appetizers; gyoza, edamame, tempura, & sashimi. They have this; soy sauce, vinegar, fresh Serranos marinating altogether & used it on everything! Be sure to get a bowl of that for your sushi also, especially if you like spicy. All the desserts we ordered were excellent. If you roam around the restaurant, I highly recommend doing so, this place is massive & traditional ambiance is beautiful, I sure don't see anything like this in America but, in Japan. Anything you order you will not be disappointed. Enjoy!

The girlfriend and I came here for dinner on our last day in Mexico City…read more Located in CDMX/s posh Polanco neighborhood, this sushi spot is outstanding in both its presentation and its service. The tuna sashimi was outstanding. Thick immaculate cuts with freshness and flavor. The nigiri was impressive, with perfectly seasoned rice and beautifully sliced fish. The shrimp salad added a lighter refreshing contrast that was thoughtfully composed. Dessert was the perfect finale: soft, delicate mochi ice cream. This cleansed the palate without overwhelming it. From presentation to flavor, everything felt intentional and refined. Ryoshi is a mist-visit for anyone who appreciates high-quality Japanese cuisine in Mexico City, especially in Polanco, where expectations are high and Ryoshi clearly rises to meet them.

I've wanted to eat at Nobu for a long time, and this experience left me underwhelmed…read more I came in for an early dinner - 4:30pm - and there was only one other table in the restaurant. The reason I mention this is because I felt very rushed to eat and get out, and there was no reason to do so. I ordered 5 dishes. When I'm in a nice restaurant, I shouldn't have to ask the server to only bring one dish at a time - it should just be assumed. I ordered my selections, the server asked what order I would like the food delivered, and I told him the order in which I gave him the selections - but the tempura and sushi could be served together. The miso soup came first. Ok...not what I asked for. I requested the oysters first, but not a big deal.... Then the oysters came while I was still enjoying my soup. I wasn't concerned yet. The oysters are on ice and can sit for a minute. After I finished those 2 dishes, my elote-style baby corn was delivered. This dish was probably the biggest disappointment. The menu indeed said "baby corn", but I was imagining corn kernels done elote style...kind of like an esquite, but a high-end restaurant version. That is not at all what I got. I got little baby corn - the kind that come in a can - dressed up with elote style seasoning. This dish was $345MXN (~$17USD)!!! SERIOUSLY?! The cost on that dish has got to be an 800-1000% markup for something that shouldn't be served in a fine-dining restaurant in the first place. I took a couple of bites - and then my tempura came while I was still nibbling on the disappointing baby corn that I was simply eating at this point because I didn't want it to go to waste. I pushed it aside for my tempura entrée. I eventually let about half of the corn dish go to waste - and I hate wasting food. Nobody asked if I enjoyed the dish, or why I didn't finish it. I didn't necessarily expect them to remove it from my bill (although when I was working as a server, that's what I would've done), but it would've been nice if someone had asked for feedback on why I didn't finish it when I cleared every other plate. As I was enjoying my tempura, I noticed the sushi had not yet arrived...did they forget? The *one* dish that I said could be served with another dish is the only dish that was *not* served with something else. I finished my tempura. The sushi finally arrived, so thankfully they did not forget it. I ate my sushi, and my dishes were cleared. I was delivered the dessert menu. I said "no postres, gracias", and the server ignored what I said and walked away. I simply wanted the bill at this point, but I looked anyway to see what they had to offer. After all, I was basically being forced to do so. The server comes back, I ask for "La cuenta, por fa", and I receive it. As I'm glancing over the bill, I notice a charge for "cubierto - $16MXN" (silverware/cutlery). Ok...that was the last straw. I realize that it amounts to about $0.80USD, but that's not the point. You're nickel and diming your customers in a nice restaurant to the point that you're charging them for chopsticks??! And maybe the use of the water glass as well...but, that just about sent me over the edge. I'm already paying enough for the food that the cost of utensils should be included in the price. I have *NEVER EVER* seen a charge for something like that in my life. I paid the bill and I left 10%. That's *VERY* hard for me to do as someone who used to work in fine dining restaurants, but I had to send a message. And I realize 10% in Mexico is probably not as insulting as it is back home...but I needed to convey that everything was disappointing - especially the service. Nearly everything about my experience went wrong. I was in and out in about 45 minutes - maybe slightly longer. I'm sad to say, I will never be back - at least not to this location. And if my experience is a reflection of what I can expect at another Nobu restaurants, I won't be back to any other location either. Not worth the money to walk away disappointed.

Their ramen was rich with a complex depth of umami flavors which balanced perfectly with the springy noodles and tender pork. The bowl is massive but I could genuinely eat the whole thing! As a ramen connoisseur, I can proudly say that this is one of the best bowls I've ever had. And to end it all off, the Matcha Tiramisu was light, refreshing, and not overly sweet. I absolutely love this spot!! Their service is fast and incredibly kind and joyful. Additionally, the ambiance is calming and feels high end but still with a quality of casual.

Didn't opt for the omakase since my husband thought it was too much food for him. A la carte it was. We enjoyed all the food. Udon was great! I prefer udon over ramen since I like a cleaner and lighter broth. The portion was smaller than I expected, more like an appetizer size than an entrée size. Only nigiri I didn't quite liked was the geoduck, it had a fishy taste still (think aji). Would definitely return on a future trip.

The…read morerestaurant is tucked away from the street, and there were some ramps/stairs we had to get through to reach the restaurant. I'd say that they've got service and presentation down pat. The quality of the food, I'd say, is pretty good too. We started with a persimmon tofu salad with crab, shrimp, and asparagus - very clean flavor, refreshing. Then an assortment plate with mackerel & ika, trout roe, seaweed-marinated egg, matsutake mushroom salad, cactus nigiri (yes, you read that right!), and wagyu cake. I was not impressed with the wagyu... it was lacking in flavor and a little on the chewy side. The cactus nigiri was interesting! I like that Chef Asai is trying to incorporate Mexican culture into his dishes. I've never had cactus before, but it had that crunchy texture and plant-like taste. We then had a sashimi course - akami, hotate, and striped jack all on one plate. I think I would have wanted these separate instead of all on one plate, but maybe that's just my preference. We also had wagyu shabu-shabu, which I enjoyed! Overall, it was a mix of good and decent, and I enjoyed our lunch here! Interesting take on kaiseki experience.

The night that we went, they had a DJ playing, which added another level to the vibes. This seems like a versatile spot, good for both larger groups or intimate dinners. My friend and I started our meal with the soft shell crab bao buns. These were perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. I highly recommend. For our mains, we split the Korean fried chicken, duck breast burnt ends, baby bok choy, and Japanese sweet potato. Every single thing we had was tasty! The chicken was perfectly fried and seasoned. The duck breast was cooked well, and the sauce was a perfect complement. My favorite item was the Japanese sweet potato comes topped with white miso and black sugar better. The flavors melded together so perfectly and the potato was savory. The presentation at the table was also interesting. In addition to the food, we each ordered a couple of cocktails. Both the funky monkey and Pyro drinks were well made, with another great table presentation when served. While there was a rowdy party next to our table that annoyed us, the food, drinks and service from beginning to end more than made up for that. I highly recommend stopping here for a meal and some drinks if you ever find yourself in Mexico City.
