The menu is too extensive and varied for my taste. It has a combination of Japanese and local cuisine. The lighting was too bright. The food was good but nothing memorable.

We had a vey nice lunch. Ambient is pleasant. Food and service are great. It is a bit expensive for local standards (around 15%higher than other places in Montevideo)

We had a fantastic meal here. Happened to stumble on it while heading to another restaurant, and liked the vibe. The menu was interesting, and even "basic" food items like potato skins were superbly done. A great dessert menu as well, including a scrumptious dulce de leche mousse.

It is a good restaurant, usually full. Good variety of meat, fish, sushi and risotto. Only problem is price. We paid $50 per person, a bit high for the value

A very nice place, protected from the wind, offering some tables on the pavements next to low traffic streets. The food is good, and you have a very wide variety of options, including sushi/sashimi (you must taste the salmon!), italian food and the usual Uruguayan meat experience. The latter is of very good quality and you will not be disappointed.... More

We'd had a relatively big lunch so I had something relatively light. Others had baby beef which we the best I saw all the time in Uruguay. Wine list good and reasonable.
