GENKI RAMEN REVIEWS

Große Auswahl an Rahmen, sehr lecker! Gyoza auch sehr zu empfehlen. Zum Mittagessen unter der Woche am besten nicht zu spät da sein, sonst kann es aufgrund der limitierten Anzahl an Sitzplätzen schon mal en werden.

Sehr lecker und authentisch. Die Gerichte werden schnell serviert und schmecken wirklich gut. Ich komme sehr gerne wieder.

Total leckeres Essen und sehr, sehr freundliche Bedienung. Wir waren richtig zufrieden und sehr satt.

KOYA REVIEWS

Ich war privat in einem Hotel untergebracht und wollte nicht mehr groß raus. Auf Instagram fiel mir Kayo auf, also habe ich über Lieferando bestellt und wurde mehr als positiv überrascht. Von der Verpackung bis zu den Sushis war alles perfekt in Szene gesetzt und erinnerte mich an eine Präsentation in Dubai. Solch eine Qualität sehe ich selten in Deutschland und bin begeistert. Am Tag zuvor war ich woanders Sushi essen, aber das kam an Kayo überhaupt nicht ran. Kayo ist mehr als nur ein Geheimtipp. Ich empfehle es uneingeschränkt und freue mich auf meinen nächsten Besuch in der Stadt. Bleibt bitte so lecker und behaltet alles so bei, wie es ist. Beachtet die etwas längere Wartezeit, denn gutes Sushi braucht seine Zeit. Tolle Zutaten und mega Umsetzung. Vielen lieben Dank!

Der beste Sushi-Lieferant der Stadt! Super schneller und einwandfreier Service, so gutes frisches Sushi und dazu super leckere und ausgefallene Kombinationen! Jeden Cent wert! Es wird nirgendwo anders mehr Sushi bestellt.

Auf dem Foto sieht man,dass Sushi Rolls professionell zubereitet wurden.

AKASAKA REVIEWS

Bin immer gerne dort. Das beste Sushi, das ich bislang gegessen habe. Liebevoll zubereitet und sehr lecker. Dazu passendes Ambiente und sehr freundliches Personal. Freue mich schon auf den nächsten Besuch.

Tolles japanisches Restaurant. Das Ambiente ist nicht wirklich hip, aber das Essen ist erste Klasse. Die Atmosphäre ist eher familiär. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Das beste Sushi in typischer Umgebung. Netter Service. Etwas Zeit sollte man mitbringen.
