As we walked in the owner stated they did not have "space." We were the only customers there at 7. It appears he did not want to serve guests based on racial appearance, or possibly guests with children. When confronted about why he wouldn't seat us, in Japanese, he became uncomfortable and gave us a business card. No business should treat customers this way in 2024.

I've been here several times and each one deserves a 5* for its amazing taste and simplicity…read more Self service, you order and you wait for your sushi to be express made. The Miso soup is homemade, so it's completely something else compared to the other restaurants. The chef, a true Japanese in love with Florence, is in the open kitchen, showing his art to everyone, making delicious specialties like the frittata and marinated anchovies. Prices are really fair, wine is included in the 15 € menu, together with the soup and a plate of nigiri (sometimes if you get lucky it's mozzarella di bufala's nigiri day, try and see for yourself). If you can, BOOK a table, it's quite always full and the place is as big as a mouse's nest.

I am on a three week trip in Europe and started to feel a little under the weather when I passed a…read moreRamen spot in Florence and knew it must be fate. I've had plenty of delicious pasta and pizza since I've been here, but as far as I know, those foods do not have the same magical healing properties as a big ole bowl of broth, so I chose that for dinner tonight. The food here was very good, surprisingly authentic, and really reasonably priced. Plus they called the Gyoza "Japanese Ravioli" which I think is adorable. The space is a little cramped but that's normal for Europe, they had two rooms so they could probably accommodate a bigger group if you gave them enough notice. Great Ramen and you can't beat the price- check it out if you're in Florence!

The…read morequality of the fish and nori is excellent, even if it's not really Japanese as others have pointed out. The menu is almost entirely sushi and roll based, lacking some of the cheaper basics in favour of more complex items with impressive displays. Decor is dark and modern, and is wearing badly, though for now looks sufficiently fancy to warrant the high price. Bottom line: the food is good, the price on the high end, this is a place for a special occasion and / or to be seen, more for groups than as a couple.

I had the ramen ajisen as well and that was rubbish too. Listen man, What makes ramen ramen is the noodles, the broth and the taste/texture of the meat. The ramen ajisen I had was off on all 3 counts, like wayyyyy off. I can't possibly understand how this restaurant garnered these many good reviews?!?! I walked out of there disappointed & annoyed. However, I'm giving this place 2 stars for the general decor, ambiance and the server was friendly. And Oh, the bottle of Asahi was pretty good. After all, it's bottled beer so they can't possibly mess that up.
