    Excellent experience! Plenty of choice and well presented in a quick (sometimes too quick way). A bit pricey but you won’t leave with hunger!

    Great meat. Average ramen. Good maceta, not matcha cheesecake. Service a bit messy.

    First I called to check availability and they said they were fully booked, I mediately I Reserved on line and went there and there was plenty of room. The waiter got upset because we didn't order a chunk of meat, but we did ordered chicken and salmon and 2 steak tartar. The appetizers are to die for

    We had an absolutely wonderful experience at this restaurant. I definitely recommend the Chef’s Experience. Hands down the best food I’ve had in Europe so far over the last 5 weeks. 5 stars for sure

    Food was fabulous, but service was very slow considering that it was not that busy. I understand that we are in Spain and I need to relax, but the inefficiency was driving me nuts.

    The ambiance and restaurant itself was nice. Bottom line up front: This place is overpriced for the quality of food. There were two glaring issues: - The “ramen” seemed to be instant ramen. This would be pretty disrespectful and offensive if that is indeed the case. Can’t say for certain because we didn’t see the kitchen but I’d say it’s pretty darn close (having had my fair share of instant ramen over the years). - We were automatically served appetizers after being seated. We did not ask for/order these. I already noticed on the menu that there was an item called “appetizers and service” and when I asked about this, the server confirmed that this was the item…but did not ask nor acknowledge that this came without being asked. I find this practice dishonest seeing as we ended up seeing this charged on the bill & the other parties in the restaurant at the time did not have this happen. There’s plenty of other good food in the city. We have been to amazing kbbq places around the world & this one does not cut it.

    It’s a fake Korean/Japanese restaurant. Way too expensive. Plain rice €4,- , each meat dish is 100 grams for crazy prices. It’s a complete trap. Even staff apologized for high prices. Avoid this place!!

    If you really wanna taste Japanese Yakiniku, this is the place to go. Living 3 years in Japan I can recommend the food. Not very Japanese from the interior but still nice. Definetly a visit and experience worth.

    Even though I made a reservation, upon arrival they told me what time I had to leave the table, so we ate watching the clock. In the end, we managed to finish before the indicated time, the administrator came to tell us that there are already people waiting and that we must get up. This attitude of the host is not for the restaurant level nor for the bill that I paid. The experience achieved in my wife and children was lost with the host's rapt behavior.

    Amazing food in a great restaurant. One of the best wagyu I've ever had in my life. The veggies, rice and ramen were also very tasty. The only con I'd give is that the wagyu is a bit pricy but considering the meat is imported from Japan....it's kind of normal

    All very good. Only, my sister got a small piece of plastic in her meat which it was not very pleasant. Otherwise everything was very good. Good quality of food.

    Great food but poor service, the staff does not know anything about the menu and can’t even open a bottle of wine. I mean for the price they should be trained no?

    Nice location and the place is spacious and super clean. Original set up where you can cook your own food. It's super overpriced though. 38 euros for the seafood which was just 4 tiny scallops, 2 prawns and a few squid. A shame...
