The restaurant proved to be the ideal venue for the get together with my visiting classmates from abroad who were mostly billeted in the area. Service was efficient though the food was just average and price on the high end. Anyway, the cost was commensurate to the ideal location, ambiance and prompt service of its personnel who good-naturedly assisted in taking group photos of the occasion.. .

Affordable yakitori place. We ordered shrimp tempura and grilled items, I focused on eating their grilled items on the menu which were really good.The price was not exaggerated unlike other Japanese restaurants. This is by far one of my favorite Japanese restaurants.

Izakaya Kikufuji

Reviewed By normand3v11la

This was place recommended by a friend who also lived in Japan... I guess we did not order the right food. Was quite disappointing but probably ok for lowered expectations.We only ordered the Moriawase sashimi, sushi platters and some agedashi tofu and potato salad. The servings were quite big,so reasonable in a sense. However, from a quality stand point, the food was poor to average: I’d say the best was the agedashi tofu and that the dashi sauce was good and tofu was soft and cooked well. There are other chains with better version though. The sashimi was disappointing. The serving size of uni was big and the taste was ok, not bad. So was the tuna. However, the salmon was pathetic. I think it was frozen salmon and thawed. Very bland taste. The sushi was similar and the rice was so-so.Potato salad was of good size serving. But far from a good Japanese potato salad. Maybe not enough Japanese mayo? For P100, can’t complain much.Net, very average to mediocre Japanese food at affordable prices.

Yabu House of Katsu

Reviewed By okiksaints

6 adults and 2 kids for PHp 3,200 or about S$90. Relatively cheap but nothing extra-ordinary on taste for Japanese katsu style (breaded and deep fried)Portion of main courses are actually generous, some good for 2. And it's eat all you can cabbage salad, fruits and rice.Waiters and servers are attentive and provides good service. Long queue even at 3pm late lunch. Good for family outing.

Seryna Japanese Restaurant

Reviewed By Pyrefalcon

In terms of food quality, Seryna doesn't disappoint. We ordered the kaisen gozen, sashimi gozen, and sukiyaki gozen, and the quality was consistently excellent. The ambiance was also great, albeit not fit for people who see poorly in low light. The service, however, left something to be desired. There was a server standing by the menu stack who seemed to be daydreaming and wouldn't respond. A simple request such as water refill took much longer than it had to.

I had my birthday celebration with my close friends at Umu. Three of us just visited Japan separately 3weeks ago. Umu is always on my list for the best Japanese Restaurant in Makati. Our Chicken and Tuna Teppanyaki were both cooked perfectly, just the way we want it. The thin slices and tenderness of the Beef Gyudon with It’s sweet sauce brought us all backIn Tokyo. The taste is very Japanese, authentically crafted! Ms. Abigail ensure our comfort and satisfaction while having our dinner, asking our group often how’s everything. Maui is always my favorite server. Being a frequent dinner Maui and her team was able to serve us and delivered excellent dining service while inside we are in Umu. Beautiful and appetising ambiance. Interiors are very Japanese too. Great food and excellent service resulted a beautiful birthday celebration that will always be remembered. Thank you Umu. Thank you Dusit Thani Manila
