I see the effort and the concept, but for me the execution was lacking. The rice was overcooked to the point of being mushy and caked together, and the freshness of the fish was questionable. I ordered the carpaccio tatake, aburi sushi daily specials, and from the main menu the agedashi tofu and chirashi don. I always order chirashi because it is deceptively simple: it's sashimi on a bed of rice. You can't hide behind fancy rolls with drizzled sauces, but it's an opportunity to flex the freshness of your product and creativity of the chef. It looked ok when it arrived but was confusingly served with the dense rice packed into the bowl, topped with the fillings used for spicy tuna rolls and crab mayo rolls, oxidizing avocado, and a few nice sashimi splices. The carpaccio needed to be delicate but it was roughly cut, and swimming in sweet dashi. I wonder if the lack of air conditioning had something to do with these issues, because in contrast, the cooked items - the agedashi tofu and the blow-torched aburi sushi - were good though. Also considering the overall price placed it in comparison with higher-end sushi restaurants and it just didn't match up well in the overall quality.

Location carina ed accogliente, personale molto gentile, servizio veloce.. pesce di ottima qualità ed abbondante nelle portate, sapori delicati, ma piacevoli. Troppo caldo il roll col pesce in tempura, ma forse è un mio gusto personale. Non economico, ma ci sta per la qualità. Assolutamente consigliato

Fabulous nigiri and very good salmon croquettes, but the Takoyaki were space ✨✨✨✨✨
I think the girl who served us was in her first days of work... I hope she gets into a good rhythm soon 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Attratti dalle buone recensioni, decidiamo di provare questo ristorante in zona Ostiense. Di giovedì non è stato semplice parcheggiare, immagino nel weekend ancor peggio, quindi conviene avviarsi per tempo.
Atmosfera molto caratteristica, servizio cordiale e veloce. Buono il misto di sushi ed ottimo il sashimi, gustosi il takoyaki ed i gyoza.
Prezzi nella media per la tipologia di ristorante, un po' cari i dolci.
Esperienza senz'altro positiva

Sushi restaurant in the Ostiense area highly recommended. In addition to being a beautiful Japanese-style restaurant, the food is also really good. The staff is very kind, helpful and quick, ready to advise you on the various combinations to make between drinks and food. The menu is varied and you pay à la carte, the price is a hair above average but is commensurate with the quality of the food and the beauty of the place.
With every bite you can taste the true quality and freshness of the product. The rolls I wanted to try were very good, especially the one with the tempura shrimp and the salmon sashimi which created a very pleasant contrast between hot and cold, even the edamame which for me should never be underestimated were very good. I've never liked wakame and tended to never eat it in ayce, but in this place they make it really good. The takoyaki they make are the best I've ever eaten, the softness and flavor of the octopus are something truly unique. I wanted to try the wagyu gyoza as it was off their menu, but I didn't like it much, the meat was quite fatty making the gyoza too greasy but it was explained to me that this is its characteristic. The sashimi and nigiri were very fresh and delicious, they just melted in your mouth. For desserts I wanted to try both the dorayaki with chocolate and walnuts which I loved, very soft on the palate and the mochi which I personally adore, I wanted to try the ones with chocolate and mascarpone and I couldn't have made a better choice, every bite was pure pleasure for the palate and if I could I would have eaten it again and again.
I will definitely go back, I would highly recommend it for lovers of Japanese cuisine and for those who have never tried it to be able to have a fabulous journey of flavours.
Sincere congratulations.

This place, in addition to being beautiful, is characterized by delicious dishes both raw and cooked in the best Japanese tradition. The owner, Yasu, from Tokyo, despite being very martial, is kind and hospitable, attentive to any guest's needs. We ate an endless variety of sushi, sashimi and onigiri, as well as drank very well.
Few places in Rome for sushi like this. Highly recommended
