4.6 / 5.0(627 reviews)
I was heading in for a light bite but ended up ordered more dishes and walking out of their legless after a few of their cocktails! What a great spot! Friendly service and lovely outdoor dining with a huge menu to accomodate all needs. I grabbed the duck gyoza and a couple of rolls which were fresh and yum. This is my absolute favorite restaurant in the entire Galápagos Islands! I've had the pleasure of dining here twice, and both times their sushi and overall food quality were superb, and their drinks were fantastic. The service is truly exceptional. Diego is an outstanding professional who elevates the entire dining experience. Don't miss your chance to eat here; you absolutely won't regret it! Wow was the food amazing! I wasn't expecting to find high quality dining like this on an island in the Galapagos. If you are into Asian cuisine then this a must try restaurant! The duck gyoza was served in a ramen broth with rendered foie gras and it was outstanding!!! The roll was phenomenal!!! Didn't miss this place!

Beautiful, chic restaurant with tons of delicious options! My boyfriend came here for our first dinner in the Galapagos and it was a great way to start the trip! Excellent drinks (we had the pina colada and guyaba mule) and food (we had the spicy green roll and parrillero). The real star of the show was the chocolate mousse though! So many flavors and textures! Highly recommend, and I would recommend this location over the one in San Cristobal, if only for the vibes

Definitely one of the best sushi's and sashimis I've ever had. The tuna tartar was the star of the night.
