But Syl's review sold it. And he's right! Really decent sushi and at a pretty good price. €21 for an all-you-can-eat dinner and believe me, I got value out of it. (They also do a €25 "deluxe", but I did fine with the "basic".) The food kept coming and there was no hesitation when I ordered a fourth round. The menu is pretty clear, with pictures of the food and the numbers. Just order away. Don't go completely crazy because you do have to eat everything you order. There's no take-away at the end. I had temaki (loaded with smoked eel!), gunkan with roe, and just a ton of salmon, tuna, octopus and even mackerel. Sitting at the bar, I could see it being prepared and it's all very clean and very organized. Note: I had a Kirin, figuring Japanese beer with Japanese food. Since Amsterdam isn't Japan, Kirin is imported. €4 for sticker shock! That's like $5.50 in real money! No wifi, but the TV behind the sushi bar was tuned to the Eurosports channel. Very friendly staff, all of whom spoke not just Dutch but also Japanese (to some Japanese tourists) and English. I would absolutely return!

for a japanese place inside centraal station, i would say this place is not bad…read more gave it 4 stars coz the food was above average...portions were generous...staff was very nice....prices were typical...and ambiance was amazing for train station standards...but the best part was the view from the dining room. i have to give kudos to my server too for helping me out with directions by using his own phone and even writing it down on paper for me. plus, he also engaged my son and chatted about online gaming...made us feel really welcome and at home. ordered the pork shoyu ramen + chicken gyoza for side dish ( lunch promo) yakitori w/ rice and soup, beef teri on rice and soup, and "waffu" steak with rice and soup.... ramens broth was aromatic and rich...a little on the salty side though so more water was need...noodles were cooked perfectly , shoyu pork was tender and succulent, soft boiled egg was done right as well. only funny thing i noticed is they placed bok choy in it...lol. never seen bok choy on ramen, but maybe thats the chinese touch given by the owners whom i think could be chinese/viet . chicken gyoza was done right too...crispy bottom and served with a tangy dipping sauce. beef teri was done well too. good portion. came pipping hot and flavour was there. miso soup was good too. chicken yakitori came with 3 sticks and generous chicken chunks...chicken was not seasoned that well. would taste bland without the sauce for sure. but overall, it was satisfying and not bad. the beef "waffu" was really a piece of steak with sauce...steak was done well..tender and seasoned well. sauce did not overpower the steak. it was juicy and not dry. no free tea service - bummer for me :( but, dining was complemented with a spectacular view of amsterdam harbour, with boats passing by and nice buildings, as well as people walking and biking....classic ..very classic! washrooms were super clean. but overall, when hungry in amsterdam centraal station, look his place up. you wont be dissappointed! i highly recommend this place to satisfy a japanses craving... happy eating!

This place is charming on the inside and out. On a nice day you can't beat sitting in the sun in their outdoor seating in the front. a great people watching location.

They are situated right next to SUMO Sushi…read more We asked if they felt they had to compete to the AYCE Sushi Joint, but they said it wasn't so bad. They attract different customers then Sumo. It's easy to believe: there were actual Japanese people dining there. The sushi was really good, tasty, fresh and yummy. Entourage is nice. Could be a little bit more special, but its homely. Dishes look really nice and professional. There is seating outside too, which is great with good weather! Serving staff is very nice but quite young, they still have some learning to keep looking around to do. Most of the times, they passed all the tables without making eye-contact, so visitors would have to shout to get their attention. And that's not necessary, since it's not a big restaurant, it's quite easy to keep looking to see who needs attention. The only thing you shouldn't be ordering is.. the sea urchin. I tried the sea urchin as a preparation for Japan... and it was disgusting! It's nothing to do with the restaurant, a friend of mine, big sushi lover, also told he found the taste of it quite horrible. Very bitter and salty. Ewwww. No. No no no. I eat almost anything but this.. NO! So don't ruin your stay here by picking that one. Unless you are a big big big fan of sea urchin. For which I applaud you! I couldn't stomach it! BUT. The rest of the sushi was FAB! The handrolls were good too. Yum. When are we going back?

Don't expect any all you can eat sushi infused with lots of mayo and dressing. They say simplicity is the ultimate sophistication and I am a fan of simplicity. If you prefer all-you-can eat style sushi, this might not be for you. But if you appreciate a quiet homey low key date night, this could be for you. The service did seem a little slow as there was only one waitress working during that time, and perhaps the kitchen was understaffed as well? It's nice, but nothing great. Hence the three stars.
