As mentioned in other reviews, the way this place works is you get 10 courses. But it's really an…read moreall-you-can-eat place as they allow you to repeat any previous courses you liked before they finally bring you dessert. You don't really order off a menu, they just start you off by asking about any dietary restrictions and then they just serve whatever they're serving. After that, the food comes out *quick*. Except for a couple of pauses in the action, the courses are brought out almost on top of each other. I wouldn't say that this place is a Japanese place. It's more Japanese fusion. They start you off with plates of sushi and sashimi, but it eventually started to include dishes like fried boar, a collection of ceviches, and (post-meal) they offer a Brazilian favorite - fried shrimp skewers. My personal favorites were the boar, smoked squid sashimi, the octopus ceviche, and the banana brulee desert; but all of the food they brought out was top notch. As of this writing, our meal came out to R$ 100/person, which is like $28. Hachiko is a tremendous bargain. It's located in downtown Rio and away from the tourist area, so I'd advise having someone there that is at least somewhat comfortable communicating in Portuguese. But other than that, I'd definitely advise having dinner here for anyone traveling to Rio.

After ordering several times encouraged by chefsclub, the quality of the food and great presentation never ceases to amaze me. A new branch in a franchise system opened recently in Leblon, at Rua Conde Bernadotte, 26. The restaurant is a bit hidden, but once you find it at the very end of the gallery, you will notice it is small, but trendy. They have served a Uramaki passion fruit as courtesy and the food was absolutely delicious. Sophisticated as high end sushi places and delicious and not obnoxious. I highly recommend salmon tartar. Either the traditional or the light that comes surrounded by cucumber. Absolutely spot on. The strawberry and chocolate harumaki was also served with a complimentary ice cream. Staff was very friendly and restaurant was busy even though it has been inaugurated recently. A very good indication of great success in a venue marked by many attempts of businesses that would not manage to take of. Don't forget to try the Philadelphia special, that comes surrounded with herring roe (massago). Delicious.

I would not recommend this restaurant. I asked the owner lady if she had scallops as I didn't see…read moreit on the menu - she replied yes so I order 4 pieces of scallop nigri and one scallop sashimi. The sashimi was one piece cut in the 4 thin slices - very tasty but very small. The nigri came cooked to my surprise. when I asked the owner, she said it is not fresh so we need to sear it for safety. I was not impressed to be told this. moreover, the rice had a bite and inedible. when the bill came, this was the biggest shock. She charged me the equivalent of £25 for ONE piece of scallop sashimi on the basis that it came from Canada. She did not warn me of the price when I ordered and further dos lot share that the nigiri scallops would be defrosted. why can Sushi Leblon down the road served 100 times fresher and better sushi and sashimi for a fraction of the price? My advice is DON'T go to Azumi unless you want inferior food for exorbitant prices. The owner is very dishonerable. I paid, left and will never return.

The place is not that big, I would recommend you to eat directly at the bar table with the sushiman preparing your meal. I would recommend also to order just sashimi & niguiri, the rolls were not that good. The service was not so good, they only speak Portuguese so it was quite difficult to understand them. Anyway, you must come if you are visiting Rio! Lugar de Sushi auténtico japonés. Los chefs son japoneses lo cual te da una primera buena impresión de buen lugar para este tipo de comida! Y así fue. Gran selección de pescados: pez limón, lubina, atún rojo entre otros. El lugar no es muy grande, te recomiendo que comas directo en la barra con el sushiman que te prepara tu comida. También que ordenes solo sashimi & niguiris porque los rolls no son tan buenos. El servicio deja mucho que desear, solo hablan portugués así que es difícil entenderse. De todos modos, tenes que venir si estás de visita en Río!

First off, this is the freshest fish we've had in Rio in the last 20 years. For me, this is the single biggest factor in a sushi spot. Also, the menu is ample - loads of hit and cool Japanese foods. We started with Hana Nira - garlic sprouts. Warm with lovely teriyaki-type sauce. Then, we had grilled octopus. It was really good...perhaps a bit chewy. Our main course was a Combinagi platter of sushi, sashimi, and rolls. Five types of fish were on this combo platter. Everything was tasty and terrific. Little to no wasabi on the sushi so you might request more wasabi if you really want that heat. For dessert, we had the creme brulee crepe with apples and ice cream. Amazing. The golden-buttery sauce was off the charts delicious.
