Great service and friendly staff, lovely Japanese food and cute restaurant. Sushi was so tasty! We sat outside and it was nice, social distance and safe practices in place. We can speak French so didn’t need to speak English so can’t comment on the language side for non-French speakers. Would recommend if you love Japanese food!

Ultra fresh sushi, friendly and knowledgeable staff who are also top “sommeliers” of sake and have a wide selection to temp the patrons (who, often as not are vignerons themselves).
The service is very nice and friendly. We ordered the D1 for 2 persons. The miso soups were fine and correct. The cabbage salades were reasonable. The sushi boat looked good. All the sushi and rolls were well presented and looked delicious. However, the first bite of my California roll just knocked me out. The rice, the sushi rice was totally tasteless. I almost couldn’t believe it so I tried one nigiri shushi and....it was the same. Then I tried them all one by one and they were just fish on top of a nature rice ball! The sushi rice, which plays an important role, seems to me was totally not seasoned. I am really disappointed on this. I checked with my boyfriend and he confirmed with me. I’ve discussed a little bit with the owner at the end and he discussed friendly with me and said that the rice was seasoned with sugar and very little rice vinegar because they found that suits French people better. But honestly, I didn’t taste any of them. Lack of proper seasoned rice, those sushi and rolls were totally not the same even though the fish was quite fresh. Otherwise, I would order a sashimi directly, right?! I am not sure if French people really prefer this type of sushi if they have a chance to try an official one. Certainly not for my boyfriend, who happens to be a French. Overall, I would say that the in-restaurant experience is nice but after all, the food is the key why you choose to eat in a restaurant.
Correctly served sushi, good quality miso and a very nice selection of sake and Japanese whisky.
What an absolute gem to find in Mâcon! My wife and I have been to Japan many times and lived in Asia for 10 years so we love Japanese food and honestly this was up there with some of the very best we've had, certainly outside of Japan. Prawn tempura were light and very crisp, salmon sashimi was off the charts tender (it arrives fresh from Japan, via Rungis, a few times a week) and a selection of maki/california style rolls also excellent and very fresh. The owner, Julien spoke perfect english and has travelled the world so it was great service. They have a great range of Japanese beers, sake and whiskies so we'll be back very soon to dine one evening. (Also note very good COVID prevention in place with plastic screens between tables indoors and more than required spacing outside) UPDATE : We tried takeaway Bento boxes today and they are stunning as well, great combination of options and only EUR 10-12.50 so very good value. Only available for takeaway, 'emporter'.
They offer reduced prices after 7pm, but of course the choice is limited. Still fresh though.

Excellent ! Leurs sushis et autres makis étaient vraiment bons. Présentation superbe. Versions classiques mais aussi originales . Nous avions pris aussi des Gyoza qui étaient tout aussi excellents. Le personnel était agréable. Nous y étions en août l'année dernière et les règles sanitaires étaient respectées (masques et panneaux de plexiglas entre toutes les tables). Je recommande à 100%
