The place is somewhat hidden, but it is very spacious and beautifully decorated. Since I visited around the time when it opened, it was empty. Although the number of guests rose, it was still very nice and the place has plenty of privacy. The service was fast and the people who served explained everything very well. As the other reviews said, the spicy Sesmi Ramen was very heavy, which was great because I and my husband were hungry. The rice and the wrong soup were served first, was nice and it reminded me of my childhood. It was also nice to share it with my husband. The only disappointment was the shrimp emura. The Tempura battery was very fishy that the shrimps teased more like fish than what I wanted to eat. The Tempoura had also changed the tests of the broth. I recommend people who do not like the strong fish smell to not order the Udon. Just like a suggestion if you plan to go there earlier, because many guests come during lunchtime also the prices can change from what on Google Maps image. I highly recommend this place if you want to try Japanese food. I will definitely try something else again because it offers so much. Definitely the steamed bungalows and croquettes come to taste

Be there twice, very nice Japanese restaurant, very standard taste! Just like in Japan, but the service is a little slow.

The best Japanese restaurant in Addis. Beautiful location, great service with smile and perfect food.

Easily the best restaurant, can’t say I’ve been to many restaurants, but I don’t think anything can compare to this place. If you’re looking for a quiet place to eat and relax this is the best place for that. And one question I understand tipping isn’t customary in Japan but I don’t know if it applies to to this restaurant too, I’ve been tipping ever since and I don’t know if seemed rude so if you can clarify I’d appreciate it. Thank you !!
