"Worth the detour. Without any doubt an amazing culinary trip & such a professional staff. Young dynamic team. The food is impressive: the Alaska sushi rolls blew us away, as all other dishes we ordered. As frequent Asia travelers, we can say with great confidence that the level is at par. An unspoiled & pure kitchen & team. Discover it now before you need to book months in advance."

"Excellent Japanese-Catalan fusion restaurant. We had vegetable tempura, edamame, patatas bravas, beef bao sandwiches, spicy tuna rolls, and coulant for dessert. Everything was delicious!!"

"Very highly recommended. Amazing fusion of Catalonia and Asian food. I've always enjoyed sushi, but this was some of the freshest sushi that I have had, as well as being unique to the area (Catalonia). Service was very attentive as well. This is a great find and worth a detour if you are in the area."

"Honestly, I have travelled, and tried most of the region's sushi. The fish you get available locally is very good in Girona/Emporda, but the carefully crafted flavour combinations @Monki set it apart. Excellent secret restaurant in a beautiful medieval town in an out of the way location... if you ever enjoyed good sushi worth the trip."
