    I left this restaurant hungry. Dishes are tapas sized and overpriced. If you want a proper dinner go to the South City restaurant . We ordered sushi as a starter and it came at the end of the meal. Food quality is average when the price point is high. The only decent part of the meal was dessert even though it was €8.50 for a brownie & ice cream.

    The place was empty with other diners were present but the staff presented me the bill without me requesting it and then brought the machine over to pay. I didn’t give them any indication I wanted to leave and felt they were pushing me and my wife out. It was strange Food was good
    Yamamori Izakaya Japas & SakeResponded on January 19, 2025
    Hi Stephen, Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the experience you described, as this is not how we aim to treat our valued guests. At our establishment, we only present the bill upon request or when it seems the the dining experience has concluded. It's possible there was a miscommunication in this instance, and we're truly sorry if it came across as though you were being rushed. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the food, and we hope to have the opportunity to serve you again and provide a more seamless experience in the future.

    We got a last minute table for two at the counter the weekend before Christmas. The service and food were amazing - it's not super cheap, but we felt like we had value for money.
