The biggest disappointment was the salmon rolls. The makis were shockingly small, to the point where it felt almost ridiculous given the price. We even looked at other people’s orders to see if it was just the salmon makis that were this tiny, and, unfortunately, that seemed to be the case. The portion size was completely unjustifiable, especially when priced the same as other, more generous options.
In the end, we were very hungry, we tried it, and we won’t be coming back. There’s nothing about this place that stands out or makes it worth a second visit. The food isn’t bad, but it’s just not special. The interior, on the other hand, is over-the-top—clearly designed to please Instagram lovers rather than people looking for a great dining experience.
So good that I came back a second time with my daughter, after a different restaurant (Shimaya) didn’t even take our order for an entire 45 minutes. We left Shimaya and came to Naruto, and the waiters at Naruto served us and took our order immediately.
The chicken karaage was beautiful. And I just had to order the katsu kare again like I did the first time.
As for the restaurant, the anime themed decor and ambiance was super nice. Really enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant. The service was less than spectacular. I tried asking our waiter for different recommendations because I wanted to try a variety of items on the menu but he was not very helpful and honestly just made us uncomfortable asking questions. The food had great presentation but the taste was alright. I tried 2 different types of sushi but neither was good nor authentic. I did enjoy the ramen and chicken teriyaki. To add to the disappointment, all the ramen had pork in it. I don’t eat pork and tried to substitute it for beef or chicken but tofu was the only alternative. Another let down was they didn’t have pots of tea. Almost all decent Asian restaurants usually serve tea by the pot but here, it was by the cup.
This place has great potential but just wasn’t quite there for me. For how busy this place is, it seems like hype over quality. Between the poor service and lack of authenticity in the food taste, I give this place 3 stars. For a Japanese restaurant in Peru, it’s pretty good but for a Japanese restaurant in general, it’s okay. It’s worth checking out but I wouldn’t wait 2 hours to eat here.
This place is very cute inside with a lot of anime and cliche Japanese decorations.
Ramen was decent, pork was good, but only had 1 piece, egg was a little overcooked and lacked flavour. Gyoza tasted fine, but was cooked terribly. It was soggy, then burnt when they fried it. It then sticks with the other pieces and falls apart. Karaage was soggy and not the soft crunch you expect. They said that was how it’s supposed to be. I’m not sold on it. Curry Rice was good, but missing some spices. The rice used does not seem like Japanese rice.
When I asked for the bill, they literally forgot my table while they were doing nothing around watching.
The establishment was well decorated, with a lot of anime related decor, it gave a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The service was fast and the maki rolls were very nice.
There’s usually a queue outside, fortunately, we came in at a time where there was no queue.
However…
The Ramen I’ve ordered, the broth was extremely salty, it was rendered inedible…
To give perspective as to how salty it was, it’s even more salty than adding a whole pack of seasoning that you find in packs of instant ramen, maybe double it.
The Tonkotsu Curry, the fried pork cutlet was extremely salty, adding the curry sauce made it even more salty, again, making it literally torture to eat…
Overall, I won’t recommend Naruto if you can’t eat too much sodium, maybe I could have asked for less salt but I’m assuming it won’t be possible to ask for with Ramen as the broth is probably made and seasoned ready.
It is a shame as I had high expectations considering how well received Naruto is.
Alas, I might give it another chance, hopefully they will cut down the salt in their dishes.
