I ordered the rice bowl with sashimi. The rice even contained a fair amount of white sauce on top of it so be aware. Ask for very light or even no sauce.

Great place for lunch. We sat in their outdoor patio area…read morebecause of the good weather. It wasn't busy so it was easy to order and get service when needed. There is a happy hour menu throughout the weekdays, mostly drink specials. We got their ramen because we were craving soups. I got the omakase ramen; the menu said it comes with 3 different types of pork but only served 2 types. Overall very good. Soft boiled eggs and broth was tasty, just slightly salty but not bad. My husband got the shoyu cha-su ramen and completed the entire bowl! Chill environment during lunch time and pretty diverse menu of Japanese and Asian food.

This is a chain, so they are trying to adhere to the recipes and standards but using local ingredients. Noodle dishes were very good, interior is nice, service was good. Reasonably priced too, not to mention about a third cheaper than the same offerings in the US.

More like 3.5 Stars, but not 4-Stars…read more Being a native Japanese, I've tried several Japanese restaurants and local sushi places in Santiago. And ShooGun is probably the most authentic Japanese food you can find in Chile besides Kintaro near Centro. Unlike the new joints in more contemporary mood, such as Temple Lounge (@ Intercontinental) or Osaka (@ W Hotel), atmosphere is pretty straight forward, old-school Japanese sushi bar or Izakaya. So this place is more suitable for more corporate/business dinner. *Not recommended for those looking for a romantic dinner. Food quality is good. Santiago has a decent seafood, and this place does serve good sashimis. As for drinks, they have pretty limited selection of Japanese beer/sake. You can still enjoy the domestic brands of beers/wines. Price setting is quite high probably due to its location, target, and hard-to-get ingredients. Because of the high price, the restaurant is usually not too busy. Most likely no need to make reservation.

This is one of those things.. Yes - it's probably the best Japanese food you'll find in Santiago…read more Is it good Japanese food? The fact that they restrict themselves to mainstream and locally available fish selection is probably a plus, since the fish is fresh and tasty, and the presentation is legitimate and tasteful - actual sushi, rather than the "Papa John's Sushi Dippin' Strips" obscenity that is most local sushi, so unreserved kudos for that most fundamental metric. Still, the menu is flat and touristy. I would put it on a par with what you would expect to find on the catwalks at Japantown in San Francisco - geared towards the ignorant and wide-eyed tourist. The place is dirty, with visible accumulations of grime in the screen-doors. There's lots of waiting, mistakes, contrition, explanations in place of decent service. We had to wait over 10m between the natto and the unagi that we ordered simultaneously to end our meal "because they got other customers"? Seriously? Ankimo, and even ahi are un-heard of. The food was not bad, the fish reasonably fresh, and as with the rest of Chile's Japanese offerings, asking for Nigori Sake just breaks the program - the concept of unfiltered sake is just sooo incomprehensible. For the stupidly high prices, it's a bit of an insult.

On a sushi craving hunt, I stopped at Izakaya Yoko because of the good reviews and proximity to my…read moreLastarria hotel. The place is small, with a downstairs and upstairs area and a small sushi bar to saddle up at. But, it's quite small so I preferred to saddle up to a table. The ambiance is lacking and there was a faint scent of cleaning products. I ordered the tuna sashimi over a bed of rice, 2 tuna niguiri rolls, pork gyoza and a miso soup. While none of my dishes hit it out of the park, the gyozas were better than the rest. Unfortunately, I found the tuna to be overly fishy, which suggests it wasn't the freshest. Sad to say I won't be returning back here.

I keep wanting to have faith but I have had so many bad experiences here over the past two years!!!…read more This USED to be my go to Japanese place. The food has gotten A LOT worse over the past two years, prices have gone way up, and the service has declined. The ramen is probably the worst I've tasted. I've eaten ramen all over Japan, USA, Canada, Europe, Brasil, Peru, and this is by far the worst I have tried. I've tried their miso, shoyu, tantanmen, and the WORST was their tonkotsu. I tried two bites when they came out with their new ramen menu, the broth was flavorless, the pork chashu was tough over cooked and inedible, and I tried two bites and sent it back. The worst part is the server and kitchen said that this is how it was supposed to be and wouldn't let me return it for anything else. And they still charged me for it after sending it back to the kitchen and not eating it!! I told them that it was terrible service and they said that if I didn't like the service I shouldn't come back (NEVER WILL). Their sushi sucks, rolls meh, the sashimi came out half frozen with frost cristals when you bit into it, it's like they just don't care! Yo seguía queriendo tener fé en este lugar pero ya me di por vencido después de muchas malas experiencias durante los últimos dos años. Este lugar antes era mi preferido para comida japonesa, pero la comida ha empeorado mucho, los precios se subieron mucho, y el servicio pésimo. El ramen es el peor que he probado en chile y en mi vida! He comido en Japón, estados unidos, Canadá, Europa, Peru, Brasil... he probado su miso, shoyu, y lo peor era su tonkotsu. El caldo sin sabor, los fideos sin vida, y el cerdo chashu tan sobrecocido que ni lo podía masticar. Probé dos mordiscos y lo mandé de vuelta a la cocina. Encima no me dejaron cambiar por otro plato, me lo cobraron, y me dijeron que el ramen ES Así! Les dije que era muy mala atención, y me respondieron que no volviera si no me gustaba el servicio. Nunca más!!! El sushi malo, los rolls mehh, el sashimi vino medio congelado y con cristales de hielo al medio del pescado, es como si no les importara la calidad!!
