This meal came out rapid fire. Yes, it was a prix fixe. But it gave the impression that the items were already prepared and the servers were merely inundating our table with as many items as they could possible fit! The food was alright. But they incorporated cream cheese to much of it, which was a gross disappointment for me. Given that I can get similar items to order at a lower price elsewhere, I will pass on this place next time.

Since it was walking distance from my hotel I gave it a try and now I am very glad I visited Mori Otha. I decided to do the "balcao" option which is an all you can eat option seating at the sushi bar with premium roll selections. I allowed the sushi chef to follow their sushi sequence. All sushi rolls, sashimis and nigiris were delicious and throughly explained and presented. My absolute favorite was the Gunkan Kudama, I asked them to make more of that one and they had no problem in making them again for me. Can't wait to go back and enjoy this place again.

Did a little more research locally and found out this is the spot. Got there a little early and waited outside patiently on the bench for it to open. Walked inside when we were invited in and my wife was so happy they had many tanuki. After walking by the sushi bar and peeping out the fish, which looked really good, I ordered the omakase. Omakase was in 5 courses: oysters, sashimi, shrimp, nigiri, and dessert. Everything was AMAZING! This place is amazing. I'm one word: Go!

So, this is a simple Sushi Bar in the lobby of the Renaissance Sao Paulo Hotel. While there are…read moremany restaurants in the area outside the hotel, this place is great for some good Sushi and fast service. You can either dine in the lobby bar or they have seats inside the little bar. They make the Sushi at the sushi bar, and the waiter brings it right away, plus you can sign it to your room. The Sushi was fresh and tasty, and not at all expensive. They had a nice selection of Saké, and some of that IS expensive, so beware. Again, there are many places around, but if you want a quick and tasty meal, this place fits the bill!

Expectations were high as 1.2K folks gave this place a 4.5 average. This combined with the large Japanese population only drove our expectations higher. When we arrived without reservations, we were told that there was no seating available for the rest of the evening. As we waited outside to search for another restaurant, a server came out and told us that they could squeeze us in. They separated a 2 top from a 6 top to accommodate us (yay!). We ordered the grilled squid, but later were informed that they were sold out. We ordered the grilled sardines and fried oyster appetizers. The sardines weren't sardines, but they were flavorful and well grilled. The fried oysters were overcooked and dessicated, but fresh. Our entree was the large sushi sashimi platter. Everything was fresh and flavorful, but maybe due to our expectations, as previously stated, we were underwhelmed. The knife skills, presentation and plating were sadly lacking and below supermarket or airport quality sushi. The rice was hard and some grains were undercooked and all the rice was under vinegared. Again the seafood ingredients were almost as good as that in Tokyo, Osaka, NY or LA, but the plating, cutting skills and overall presentation was not representative of the art of sushi. Trying hard not to sound like a sushi snob, but the training required to be a Itamae, then Taisho is admirable. A major part of the allure of sushi is that half is art for the eyes, half for the pallet. Only the pallet side was represented on this evening.
