I visited for the second time and I definitely have to say that it is the best sushi I have ever eaten. The prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food. There is not a single thing to criticize.

I was pleasantly surprised when the food on the plate and the drinks came looking as exactly as they did on the pictures available online!!! I was happy. The taste was equally spectacular. And the chef was fairly generous with the portions. Pro tip; order everything once/together to benefit from this generosity of extra pieces . My drink was called Gin Berry and now I make it at home all the time. I’m happy they put this to my mind now . One of the good sushi places in Erfurt so far for me. We didn’t have a reservation beforehand. And we only had to wait about 10 minutes to get a table. This experience was genuinely amazing . The service was also top notch. Run to this place and give them all your monies. I hope your experience will be as worth it for you as it was for us.

This is our new favorite sushi place! We love the lemonades and the sushi menu is easy to choose from. You can get the more simple stuff but also more complex combinations. The best thing is the selection is not too overwhelming but has a good variety. The presentation and service are always great. We also love the location in the city center but not right in the middle of all the noise. Appetizers are delicious and have good portion sizes. Non-sushi options are also available and delicious. Two people in our group ordered the same dish but they came arranged differently, which I thought was cool.
