Overall good food. HOWEVER ! The wait... We arrived before 7:15 p.m., it is 9:45 p.m. More than one person in the group did not have enough to eat (there are 8 of us). I recommend the McDonald's which is not very far away.

Terrible service, an hour and a half to receive the food. Despair is visible on the faces of all the restaurant's customers. The employees were friendly, the food was acceptable, but the lack of organization and staff made the experience terrible.

Very tasty sushi. The best sushi restaurant we have eaten at so far. Food very tasty, fresh and handmade. Attentive service and down-to-earth owners.
However, we have to agree with other reviewers that the waiting time between dishes is very long. We were the only ones in the restaurant who ordered and yet it took about an hour until all the dishes were there. The waiter tried very hard, although there were a few obstacles (e.g. no chilled drink or a certain type was no longer available). Unfortunately, the bathroom was also a bit run down and very small. Nevertheless, highly recommended!

Freshly made food, with very good flavor, very friendly, we will return (the air conditioning needs to be fixed or eating outside is better)

Despite some qualities, my experience was disappointing. The positive point of the night was, without a doubt, the friendliness of the waiter. He was attentive, friendly and made a point of being helpful at all times. However, the delay in service was exasperating. It seemed like each order took forever to arrive, and this ended up ruining the experience. The friendliness did not compensate for the inefficiency, and unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired. I hope they improve in this aspect, as it is a place with potential.

Worst sushi I ever had. You wait and you wait and you wait. Extremely slow between orders. Too much rice on every order and the quality is low! I do not recommend a this place.

My favourite sushi place in Vila Real! The sushi is so nice and fresh every time I come here, the atmosphere is relaxing, really nothing to complain about :) also you get to pay a fixed price per person and eat as much as you want.

I've scoured and read numerous comments from other places claiming it's the best sushi in Vila Real... Unfortunately, they weren't very accurate. I was advised to visit other places, which, first of all, had nothing to do with good sushi... Most likely, they received good reviews and comments due to their location and ambiance... But that doesn’t define good and original sushi!As a foreigner who's tried traditional sushi in many countries and cities worldwide, you know that if you want to experience traditional and authentic food from other countries, you need to highly consider who's cooking in the back ;)And this was the place! We arrived at this restaurant, and they had a strong Portuguese accent, which was great! A first good sign of a potentially enjoyable dining experience & full culture present!Their menu was very good, offering a lot of sushi variety, and they also had everything available (Despite other places that don’t really adhere to the original sushi concept with weird and not very tasty combinations).Their nori for the sushi was on point, everything was fresh, with veggie and vegan options!!!Their pasta was great, which really speaks to their cooking and essence being original! And traditional!Prices are very good, actually cheaper than other places in town, and their service is amazing! The owners are super friendly, super caring, and concerned about you eating well!100/10.Please, if you have never been to a sushi place before or have limited exposure to these dishes, I highly invite you to try this place because it will get you closer to the real sushi experience and Japanese food!P.S. Forgot to take pictures of the food before eating it, but here's a sample! LOLAlso, if you expect fresh and tasty sushi or other options to be ready in 15 minutes, then you shouldn’t be eating anywhere other than fast food joints like McDonald's, BK, or any other refried/reheated places.It won’t take an hour for you to eat, but it might take 20 minutes to get your first round, so be patient and remember that healthy and nutritious food doesn't take 5 minutes to be prepared :)

Certainly one of my favorite places to eat sushi. Very tasty pieces, fresh and well-made sushi at a price that's hard to beat. Congratulations on the work.
