Ristorante Giapponese Sakura In Trieste

24/05/2025: This is "the" Chinese restaurant in Trieste. I wrote it six years ago, and after several visits over time I can confirm it: always excellent. The quality of the food surprises every time - carefully prepared, light, authentic dishes, without the usual "tricks" of fast food such as starch, excessive salt or heavy sauces. Here you eat well, period. And you feel it from the first bite. The tables and chairs, stylized but comfortable, are available both inside - in a markedly traditional, well-kept, perhaps a little narrow environment - and outside, on a quiet pedestrian street perfect for a relaxed evening dinner. The price follows the quality, but fortunately does not reach it completely: it remains honest, especially considering what arrives on your plate. Da Liu remains the best Chinese restaurant in the city. And perhaps also one of the few that has managed to make people talk about Chinese cuisine in terms of elegance and coherence for (many) decades. Recommended with your eyes closed.

23/05/2025: Very nice and well kept. The kitchen is excellent. Just a little small in space.
