We were looking for a good Japanese in Brussels for a long time as we’ve been in Japan a few times before, but couldn’t find a comparable restaurant despite the many options. We were really hoping that this would be the one for us. But unfortunately, it was a big disappointment.
Appetizers were just bland, yet we kept the hope. And then nigiri.. no taste at all. Not finished.. Our favorite dish ever is real Japanese toro. We thought it would make it up for us, but it was the worst, like a defrosted fish with this artificial stink taste. We didn’t even want to finish the rest of our sashimi and nigiri although we were still hungry.
The atmosphere and all the waitresses was lovely btw, unlike the chef. He completely ignored our feedback whic is really disappointing, especially given the high prices.
All in all, try some other Japanese and if you like, just let me know!

Delicious Japanese restaurant with limited of your classic sushi options but the quality of the food is excellent.
The service was good and efficient.
It is a little pricey and I feel they could offer green tea at this kind of mid to high end places to elevate the hospitality feeling.

Delicious food, staff was friendly and attentive, and great setting. The only thing I would recommend concerns the lighting, which felt a bit too bright. Slightly dimming it would create a warmer, more inviting atmosphere to match the overall experience.

A very fine dining Japanese restaurant with a touch of innovation. The ingredients are fresh and tasty, and the foie gras with eggplant is surprisingly delicious. In the menu, the egg rolls are quite stunning, i enjoyed it a lot. I have taken the sashimi set for lunch, all sashimis are fresh and tasty. The staff are quite friendly and efficient, and it is a restaurant that is easy to reserve.

Let’s split this review in positives en négatives. First the positives.
– Service was amazing. Super attentive, polite and friendly!! 5+ stars
– Quality of the food was amazing as well, all dishes fresh and prepared as they should be. 5 stars
– atmosphere is nice and cosy 4,5/5
The negatives. Nothing extremely bad, but all added up result in my final score.
– Wagyu upgrade to the menu was not available (being one of the reasons I visited… But the other meat dish was tasty, so that’s fine)
– Sashimi plate in the tasting menu was poor. The fish tasted great, but basic selection without anything interesting to discover. Portion was super small.
– Wine was served too cold and had to wait on it even though I asked in advance to serve it with the meat dish.
– small selection of wines and sakes per glass, making it difficult to have drinks paired with the food.
– Wine price quality is bad with high markup. (certainly the wines per glass). None of the wines in this (per glass) list were really great, and all quite expensive. In terms of sake this is better, but you’d have to take 330ml
– Overall price quality is also not that good. Comparing it to the other Japanese restaurants in GM in Brussels. But it is easier to get a table because of this…

A new discovery in Brussels!
Expensive, but worth the experience.
We went there on a Saturday, and they informed us that during the weekends, “a la carte” was not possible to order, but their pre-configured menu (82 to 99 €/person). We must say that we never saw any information on this detail while booking online.
Quiet atmosphere, lovely decoration, good service, and tasty food.

Delicious. Went here to celebrate my nieces birthday, I myself was not a big fan of Japanese food BUT after eating @Samourai I really have to say that I have to change my opinion. The food here was amazing. All very fresh and cooked to perfection. Balanced and pure flavours. Definitely going back!
The 16,5/20 they receive from Gault Millau are really earned & true!

Cosy atmosphere, with calm music and very friendly service.
Tasting menus range from 80-100 euros per person, with 6 courses: 3 starters, soup, main dish of choice and dessert. Main dish can contain fish, beef or pork; we particularly loved the tuna. Dishes are small in quantity and refined so you get to try a lot of them and feel full at the end of the meal.

Very good service, staff was very friendly and quick. Place was cozy, well decorated and calm without much noise. Food was good and varied and ingredients seem fresh and high quality. A bit on the expensive side but overall good experience.
