I visited Washoku Kyo Chinese & Japanese Restaurant in San Giovanni Rotondo, and overall my experience was positive. The restaurant is clean, tidy, and has a quiet atmosphere, ideal for both those seeking a relaxing dinner and those looking for something different. The decor is simple but elegant, and the tables are well-spaced, allowing for comfortable dining.
The sushi was a pleasant surprise: fresh, good quality, and traditionally prepared, without overdoing it with sauces or superfluous ingredients. I also really appreciated the variety of the menu, which offers both Japanese and Chinese cuisine, with beautifully presented dishes and appropriate portions. The flavors were also balanced and well-cooked.
The only negative aspect of the evening was the slow service: we had to wait longer than expected between courses, and it also took a while to receive the bill. Nothing dramatic, but there is certainly room for improvement in the organization of the dining room. Also, it's a shame they ran out of Chinese bread, which I would have liked to order because it's one of my favorites when I go to Asian restaurants.
In conclusion, I can say this restaurant deserves four stars: the food quality is very good, the prices are average, and the staff is friendly, though service is a bit slow. I'll gladly return, hoping to try the famous Chinese bread next time.

I was disappointed.
Paper menus were worn and incomprehensible.
Selection limited to very few dishes.
Ordering on a plain notepad.
Slow service.
Food was unsightly.
The place was also nice, but the smell of Chinese food was strong.
The icing on the cake was the broken POS.
Not recommended.

They're friendly and fast, but when you walk in, the smell of fried food is really too strong. They need more ventilation, and the graffiti on the walls (of course, people should avoid it) is a no-no. Chopsticks are more hygienic than disposable ones.

For my wife and I, it's a special place for several reasons beyond the quality and deliciousness of the food.
What might seem like a flaw, like still ordering with pen and paper, is a positive for us.
The food is good, and the staff is friendly. Recommended.

Very good sushi restaurant, good quality of fish and a variety of Chinese and Japanese dishes to be envied.
The owner and also the waiters are very friendly and easy-going and do their job well.
The service, especially during peak hours, can be a bit slow but it was worth the wait a bit longer.
Better to go for lunch because it costs a bit less but also for dinner it is a good idea to eat and spend some time with some friends 👍🏻
