Gijsbregt BrouwerAugust 10, 2016One of the best sushi places I've been to, in the entire world. Try their specials and get some solid advise
Fernando CovasSeptember 30, 2018Excellent, fresh, tasty options on the menu. Even with the combos, you won't be disappointed. Sit at the bar for a nice view of the chefs working. Great for groups.

Andrea MitraniDecember 30, 2017Great quality sushi, especially the signature dishes. AMAZING people. On the expensive side, but it’s probably the best sushi in the best part of the city. Worth it just for people watching.
ToryBurchJune 25, 2013Tory and the team dined at Sushi Leblon and reported back that the quail eggs with truffle was beyond. Simple and delicious.- My absolute favorite japanese restaurant in the world! Tuna tartar and "peixe manteiga" niguiri are AMAZING!!! Also loved the salmon batera
Ashleigh RuxtonDecember 21, 2015Great atmosphere, great service incredible and original menu.... Try truffle salmon cubes and fois gras seared salmon.... Better than Nobu!
- Willem SleursNovember 22, 2012Worth the trouble and wait to get a table. Excellent masterfull sushi. Try the foie gras sushi special!
Bernie BakerOctober 9, 2013The mgr squeezed in our party of 9 last minute without a reservation. It was early so I think we did them a favor. Service was just ok. Food was fantastic. Prices in the expected range. I'd go back
jose gonzalezJune 17, 2014Might be the best sushi I've had. Trumps Shiro's in Seattle and that's saying something. Grab their version of tuna tartare.
VOctober 9, 2014The tapioca ice cream is the best! The cheese ice cream tastes like cheesecake ice cream, i.e., also awesome.
Michael MolJanuary 21, 2014Great Sushi! Maybe it was my luck but had the impression that the food in Rio was nothing special. With that in mind I would highly recommend this place. WiFi didn't work, we checked on three phones.
AbbyAugust 17, 2018Nearly everything we had was fabulous. Get the MISO SOUP. Best miso I’ve ever had.- Rodrigo TrevizanAugust 31, 2015The best Sushi in Rio. Always crowded in the night, the lunch time is an alternative.
Pınar AkbulutNovember 9, 2014Excellent sushies.. Elegant service.. Smiling waiters.. Delicious wines.. Nothing more to say!
Hugo BernardoJune 26, 2014Get a seat at the counter and order whatever is in front of you. Super fresh
Samuel de GoedeDecember 10, 2011As with every good sushi place, ask the chef to give you the best of the day and be prepared to get your mind blown!
Sharmdeva SharmdevaJanuary 3, 2016Very nice place, good atmosphere and good looking people. But it wasn't "the best" sushi☝🏼️
SuperNat13November 20, 2012queues can be long, but it is worth the wait to sample its famous shrimp and foie gras.
Cem OzencFebruary 14, 2013Hang-around spot for the most beautiful people in Rio. Book in advance and enjoy meninhas!
Arthur MitchellAugust 14, 2019Maybe trendy, but this is not an even average sushi bar. Chef showed zero attention to detail. They were more interested in speed. This showed in the poor quality and presentation of the sushi.
Lori Cohen-SobelOctober 26, 2013Amazing food, beautiful people, still a line to get in, at midnight !
Guido SMarch 29, 2012Dont get loose in the "occidental" dishies. The sashini here is awesome!!! That when you realize the quality of a sushi place
Sissy KafkalaMarch 4, 2015Butterfish was yummy. The rest of the dishes were average. The ambience was pleasant.
Vicken KanadjianJanuary 5, 2012Not as good as people say it is. Nobu is much better as a comparison. Sushi is okay, nothing special. It's nevertheless a hotspot in town. About 30-45 min wait to get a table.
Cesar FavaroJune 5, 2010The Very Best Sushi in Rio, a bit expensive but real good! Be prepared for a long wait for a table!
Marc DavisDecember 6, 2013Avoid if you can. Questionable cleanliness (Head Sushi guy Luis touching fish, his iPhone, more fish, etc.) Disgusting. Food was avg, and service was lacking (putting it nicely). Stay away.
Michel CastaldelliJune 27, 2012Awful service. No reservations.. The hostess is downright rude! Food is parochial. If this is the best Jap restaurant in Rio I'm ashamed of entertaining sushi guests here.. Pass! Run away! Hype only!
Jesse ThomasMay 28, 2012I'm sitting at the sushi bar, and I've had my chair bumped into by the staff 10 times in 20 minutes... Wtf!
Felippe CaseiroSeptember 17, 2013One of the worst places that I've tried in my whole life, long queue, terrible service and the price doesnt worth at all. The fame of this place is wrong! I would never go back there.
Marcelo CastroJanuary 4, 2022Quite disappointing. No special food, service is terrible… Just an unjustifiable fuzz.

"If you are looking for good sushi. THIS IS NOT IT. really. Real poor quality sushi... they don't have any idea of how to make it. The rice wasn't sour. The fish not fresh. The table service is a mess."
