After eating tacos for every meal for three days, I needed something different. And being Asian…read morefrom New York, I craved some Asian food. Let's just say that Chinese food is not easy to find in Mexico City if you're not looking for a buffet. We finally came across Ah-Un which is basically pan Asian. As a general rule of thumb, don't ever eat sushi at a place that has no customers. If the fish is not moving then you're asking to be sick. There was also a smell coming from the bar which smelled like old alcohol. It's not fish but it gives you an idea of the cleanliness. We decided to get the katsu don and the pad Thai. Two cooked dishes that seemed like a safe choice. The pad Thai wasn't bad. It tasted like the dish should taste and was a large serving. The katsu don was not as good. The katsu was dry and the rice was tasteless. I mean it didn't even taste like white rice. It just wasn't good at all. At the end, we were just glad to eat something other than tacos.

We ordered way too much food and I wished I had an extra stomach to devour all of it. I ordered the…read moreRainbow Roll and he had the spicy salmon roll. Both were super fresh and delicious but not spicy at all. I also ordered the noodle soup which ended up being gigantic but the broth and noodles were perfect for a rainy day. They have a full bar including featured cocktails and beer and wine. The service is prompt and the food was high quality. You may think you shouldn't eat this while in Mexico given it isn't Mexican food but I think you should! Tasted just as authentic as a Japanese Restaurant in California!

When it was open, it had very good sushi, very good sake, and very good Udon. Service was always with a smile. In fact I came here today for my Japanese fix, and was quite saddened that I was unable to partake. There's a pretty decent Teppan-Yaki place in the double tree Hotel in Santa Fe; however, depending on traffic that could be anywhere from 20 minutes to 1 hour and 20 minutes away from here. Update: Friday Aug 17th. They are open again. Now excuse me I have to stuff my face. LOL :-)

The menu is large, with a variety of types of dishes, some that are not available in other local Japanese restaurants. Sushi seems to be the most popular, with ramen and fried rice also on order. We ordered spicy edamame, fried rice and udon with shrimp tempura. The rice and edamame were quite good, but not the best I've had. The udon noodles had the right combination of slipperiness and bite. The tempura was light and crunchy. Service is professional and attentive. We'll definitely return to try other dishes.

A quick look at the menu and I knew right away what I wanted. I ordered the Crispy Roll that came with camaron, and super spicey large. 10 awesome servings of that and I was set. My friend the Korean Spicey Tuna rolls which had aguacate and some interesting peppers. Since we were all-in the adventurous sushi tonight, we both downed two tequilas quickly (the only way possible). The sushi restaurant was a lot of fun and we both enjoyed ourselves a lot!

We sat at the bar where the chefs are right in front of you making the sushi, so we definitely had one of the best seats in the house. We started with the "Tuna+Crispy Rice+Kisami Nori," this was bomb! I really liked this dish, the contrasting textures and the fresh tuna. I also ordered the 5 peice nigiri sample (one of each: salmon, wagyu, hamachi, unagi and chutoro), this was also great, the stand out by far was the wagyu! Lastly I ordered a shrimp tempura roll; this was just okay to me and frankly the rolls were too big for my taste. Service was excellent and attentive; the restaurant itself has a dark and cool vibe and overall this is definitely a spot I would both recommend and go back to if I find myself in Mexico City again.

My group was 3 people and we all opted for a 7 course sampling of the chefs favs (one with just the fish option - pescatarian).

We savored each of the courses and I can't wait to go back again.

The miso soup was incredible, and we also had bok choy, edamame, and a few pieces of sushi. Everything was so fresh and some of the best quality sushi I've had in a long time. The space itself is small, intimate, and so cute. You can sit right in front of where everything is being prepared and watch them slice the fish and put each dish together. Silverio was wonderful. My friend had never tried raw sushi before, and he took the time to guide us, make recommendations, and explain what we were trying. She ended up loving it! He was incredibly kind and made the whole experience feel so welcoming and personal. You can really feel the attention and care that goes into the food and the experience here. They have both an omakase menu and a regular menu with plenty of options. I absolutely loved this place and will definitely be back next time I'm in CDMX.

We could see the sushi chefs right at the bar next to us preparing our food skillfully with long sushi knives. The restaurant had a nice open-air atmosphere just off the street so definitely a better experience if the weather is nice. We ordered salmon sashimi, 1 hamachi nigiri, a spicy tuna roll, and a hiramasa sashimi. The Hiramasa (yellowtail amberjack) was something I had never tried and they put a nice spin on it by slicing it super thin and adding some citrus and ginger to the bite. Overall, had a great dinner and would definitely come back to Gin Chan!

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.
