Book in advance. Mixture of a Japanese tavern and Western cuisine . The grilled porcini risotto onigiri and the Can Kenji burger w/ foie are incredible, but everything is top-notch. Uncomfy seats.

Francesco Marini

Amazing food. The tuna tataki is perfect, the green tea and Bailey’s tiramisù is fantastic and everyone is extremely nice. Eat at the kitchen counter for an even more authentic izakaya experience.

One of the better sushi experiences in Barcelona. Staff is super nice, pricing is reasonable. They had a special tuna type on offer that day & recommended we tried it: everything with it was amazing.

Good nigiris , although toro was slightly chewy and sea urchin was a bit “liquid”. Matcha tiramisu is good. Need to try their cooked dishes to make a strong opinion. Rather simple venue, nice service.

LaTaza

Small, rustic , simple, and excellent food. All tatakis are excellent, and nigiris very well prepared. Tiramisu of green tea and baileys : awesome, you should taste it!

Come early or make sure you reserve . The sushi menu option has an unbeatable price / quality ratio. Staff superfriendly, one of my favourite places in BCN.

The eel is tender "melt-in-the-mouth" food with exquisite raw squid and of course sea urchin .

The Can Kenji burger with foie gras is very tasty. Also try teir salmorejo tataki, a nice blend of Japanese and Spanish cuisines .

Make a reservation in advance. For a small place it can get full quickly. The choice of food and atmosphere feels like you're in Japan.

This place is on another level compared to many restaurants . I simply adore the sushi menu, but they have much much more to offer!
