Omg! We're already talking about what to order on our next visit…read more Had an early dinner (by local standards) at 6:30pm on a rainy Friday night. We were seated right away without a reservation. Loved the decor and the casual, intimate atmosphere. We tried the sashimi, vegetable gyoza, salmon don, wagyu beef, seafood fried rice, and finished with the chocolate cake for dessert. Everything was delicious. If I had to offer a critique, I'd say the wagyu was just okay--not bad, just okay. Deep respect to the kitchen for executing such a comprehensive menu. The consistency shines through not just in the high-ticket items but also in the staples like gyoza and fried rice.

You can scan the QR code to pull up the menu. It was in both Spanish and English. The menu was extensive, a little something for everyone. There was ramen, rice bowl, udon, sushi, sashimi, shabu, maki, nigiri, etc.   I tried the maguro mix don that had chu-toro, o-toro, and akami on top of white rice. This was a perfectly balanced meal. A good fatty texture on the sashimi. Rice to fish ratio was also good. It was refreshing from all the food we've been eating in CDMX. We all enjoyed our don and ramen.   Service was a bit slow regarding when our food came out but they brought out everyone's food at the same time. The restroom was clean as well. The indoor seating looks spacious. Overall, we enjoyed our meal here and would recommend this spot if you're looking for Japanese food in the Roma Norte area.

The noodles soak it all in, and every bite feels layered without trying too hard. What I liked most is that it doesn't feel overcomplicated--just solid flavors done right.

We could see the sushi chefs right at the bar next to us preparing our food skillfully with long sushi knives. The restaurant had a nice open-air atmosphere just off the street so definitely a better experience if the weather is nice. We ordered salmon sashimi, 1 hamachi nigiri, a spicy tuna roll, and a hiramasa sashimi. The Hiramasa (yellowtail amberjack) was something I had never tried and they put a nice spin on it by slicing it super thin and adding some citrus and ginger to the bite. Overall, had a great dinner and would definitely come back to Gin Chan!
