Lausanne was once an intellectual capital, attracting great thinkers such as Rousseau and Voltaire. Today it is a haven for those who love water skiing, swimming and sailing. The International Olympic Committee is even headquartered here. The town's history is evident, though, in its medieval cathedral, the museums of the Palais de Rumine, and Ouchy, the port where Lord Byron wrote "The Prisoner of Chillon" and the Treaty of Lausanne was ratified. For great views, hike up to the Signal de Sauvabelin.

Our first time to try this new buffet restaurant inside of the shopping center of Prilly-Malley with a nice air condition for such hot weather! The buffet got many choices and the wok was amazing served with different sauces of your choice. Great for sushi lovers and seafood lovers to try this buffet and we found that the price was reasonable for such excellent quality and choices of food.Highly recommended for groups and friends who like to eat "whatever" :)

I was expecting our lunch bill, for 32 rolls, to be well over 100chf, including miso, but it was 72chf - a great deal for a nice sushi lunch for 2 people - and we even got a combination of special rolls, and basic rollsYeah, so there not much to say besides "the sushi is pretty good, preice was very good"

FoodWhen presenting the menu, the manager told us that they had fresh hirame (founder/sole) and another fish I didn't recognize. My wife and I chose to take the Sushi Deluxe platter (45 pieces, min. 2 persons, 70.- per person). As this is the most expensive sushi platter you can order, we expect it to contain some valuable, good fish. Unfortunately, the majority was simple salmon (which by the way is not used for sushi in Japan!), a couple of shrimps, suzuki (seabass), saba (mackerel, a cheap fish), ika (squid) and plenty of rolls with salmon again, crab, and avocado. There was no hotate (scallop, wich I had seen in the fridge), tako (octopus, also in the fridge), not even a trace of akami or toro (different qualities of tuna), and of course no ikura (fish roe). For 140.- I can only say this is robbery and unworthy of being called "Deluxe". We were asked whether we wanted wasabi in the nigiri, which I find very professional. Given we were with our children, we said no. They then went on to include some spicy mayo sushi (California style, again a big no no in Japan), which lead our older one to silent tears...To be fair, the sushi were very well made, the rice was well cooked, the river balls not too large, the fish fresh. Also, we received 3 free unagi (eel) sushi, which certainly is a more refined fish and was very good. Food rating: I have to give this a 1. If the plate had cost only 50.-, the restaurant weren't Gault Millau-rated, and it advertised itself as a non-authentic fusion restaurant, then I could give it a 5. But when the platter was served we were like "you must be kidding"!StaffWe came 15 minutes before our 7pm reservation. The staff greeted us by saying that the restaurant didn't open before 7pm and that we had to wait outside (their website does not indicate opening hours so we couldn't know). With 2 small kids. It's freezing. I just don't understand how such people don't realize they're in the wrong line of business (it's called hospitality after all!). I demand to see the manager who repeats the same message, but then probably sees we're getting quite offended and grudgingly lets us enter (he muttered "I guess I'll get changed then"). The first staff brings us the menu, and to show my appreciation I tell her to take her time and we don't need to be attended to until 7pm. To which she replies "well now we *had* to start our service". Another missed chance to be gracious. Again to be fair, the manager put on a much better show for the rest of the evening, being very polite and attentive, bringing us some free additional sushi and apologizing at the end for the cold reception. Another positive is the fact that the chefs are native Japanese, greeting clients in Japanese. Staff rating: again, given the price tag and rating I would expect much better. The trend was positive, but I'd still have to give this a 2. EnvironmentThe restaurant is beautiful and small, it has a good groove to it. The tables are large and you will end up sharing with others, which I find rather nice. The temperature was perhaps a bit low. The structure is almost entirely surrounded by windows which are bad isolators. Environment rating: this is a good 4, it felt nice.

I come here once a week and sometimes with my collegues. It has a number of sushi choices on the menu including gyoza and deserts but I always eat set A (with tuna and salmon). The owner is very friendly and recently opened another restaurant in Pully. Highly recommended!

This is one of the best Japanese restaurants I have ever been to! Not that big so you need to reserve. Fabulous service - as always at this hotel- but the FOOD! The sushi is out of this world, just melts in your mouth - the rice is succulent and the fish is of the highest quality, and nicely decorated, a feast for the palate and the eye.I can also recommend the crab salad - lots of crab and a fantastic light sauce, I'll eat that again next time.Will never try another Japanese in Switzerland, this was just too good to be true.

This pleasant, unpretentious Japanese restaurant is a good address in Lausanne. Fast, efficient and really kind staff is definitely a big plus. Sushi and starters are really good and fresh, and unusually cheap on locals standards, especially for a proper, seated restaurant.

Also, it is served with generous quantity.The owners and the chef are very friendly and helpful in suggesting the dishes that would go well together. And they are always attentive to the customers.
