MEIJI by Hagakure Sushi In

We arrived at 10:00 PM. The location isn't bad, except for the loose outdoor platform, which moves the table every time someone walks by. The waiter came to our table after 20 minutes of sitting us down (they didn't even ask for water). After another 20 minutes of waiting, I presume the maître d' came and took our order. Water arrived after another 20 minutes (the wrong water, by the way), but only because I complained to another waiter, who laughed in my face after I told him we'd been waiting over half an hour just for water. The dishes we chose were a mix of carpaccio, nigiri, gunkan, and fried food of some kind. Everything was delivered randomly, with no logic whatsoever: first the fried food, then the gunkan, and finally the carpaccio. A MESS!!! They're lucky only because they're in Gallipoli and work regardless. They brought us two gin and tonics for €10 each, without even a coaster. If it weren't for the fact that I asked for two napkins to put under them, the table would have been waterlogged. No one ever explained what we were eating, no one ever asked how the evening was going. Finally, when it came to the bill, I noticed there was an extra bottle of water. I'd told the waiter right away, but it was added to the bill anyway! A double portion of tuna nigiri that not only had we only ordered one, but they even forgot to bring it. A DISASTER. The ONLY positive note was the preparation of the dishes. There's nothing to complain about as to the quality of the food, in fact, when I left, I complimented the kitchen staff. For two, €150 without wine for such service and an evening like that, they practically robbed us. I sincerely hope you've recently opened and realized your service level is subpar, because if you do, you'll close soon. Never again.

🌸 *Enchanting Experience!* 🌸 I had the pleasure of dining at the Japanese restaurant "kumi" and I must say it was an absolutely delightful culinary experience! 🍣🍜 - *Exceptional food*: The dishes were fresh, authentic, and carefully prepared. The sushi and sashimi were incredibly good, with a perfect balance of flavors and textures—true Japanese comfort food! 😋 - *Cozy atmosphere: The minimalist decor and soft lighting created a tranquil, quintessentially Japanese atmosphere. Perfect for a romantic dinner or with friends 🍵. - *Impeccable service*: The staff was friendly, attentive, and very willing to explain the dishes and Japanese culinary traditions. A must-try if you love Japanese cuisine! I will definitely be back to try other delicacies. 🌸👏 *Rating*: 5/5 stars only because it can't be given more⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Evening dinner, restaurant with a beautiful sea view without a doubt. Adequate service, everything arrived, but we had to ask for the last Bolin sushi roll because it wasn't arriving. The dishes were good, but they didn't have much character. The price was exorbitant for what we ate: three plates of special rolls for €67, including water. I would return for an aperitif while the sun hasn't set yet to enjoy the view of the Gallipoli sea more fully.

Very expensive for the quality. The shrimp niguiri is not worth it at all. Few people on the wait staff understood English.

The sushi is very good and the place is beautiful. Unfortunately, there's loud music, which makes it difficult to talk normally. The food took over an hour to arrive... The servers are half-friendly, half-unfriendly. They serve you without saying a word, but they remain polite.

Beautiful location, impeccable service, excellent menu TOP

Finally, I had sushi with Italian cuisine, not Chinese. The quality is noticeable. They're very professional and tell you right away when you order that if you want to order a second time, there's a long wait. But if you know in advance, that's OK. Perhaps they could use a little more help in the kitchen to speed things up. Fair prices.

Kumi is always a guarantee. This Japanese restaurant is consistently among the best: we ordered flat noodles to start our dinner and various rolls, all delicious. The wine pairings were also truly excellent. The staff was very attentive and professional in their service. The atmosphere is elegant and sophisticated, ideal for a special evening. Tip: Book well in advance, as it's very popular. It's best to book early in the evening for even more attentive service, as the place gets very busy later. Fresh produce, impeccable presentation, excellent quality. Highly recommended.

Japanese Fine Cuisine with a Swiss Surprise Kumi is an absolute highlight for lovers of Japanese cuisine. Sushi, tuna tartare, sashimi – everything was prepared to the highest standards and a true delight. The quality of the ingredients, the presentation, and the depth of flavor were simply outstanding. Rarely do you get so much quality at such fair prices. A very special compliment goes to Antonio, our waiter. He was friendly, courteous, and personable – a true professional, the kind any restaurant could wish for. What was particularly charming: We initially spoke to him in Italian, until he revealed with a smile that he also speaks Swiss German – which, of course, immediately won our hearts! An unforgettable evening in a stylish setting with excellent service. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much, Antonio & team!

Very charming place, prices a bit expensive but high quality food.
