Arte culinario Jardín Japonés (Restaurante) — Restaurant in Autonomous City of Buenos Aires

Even for Buenos Aires, where the standard of sushi is poor, this is really just a money maker as it’s attached to the jardín. The salmon sashimi was good, it’s Chilean, but the ‘no name’ white fish was not a good sushi fish and they topped it with red onion which overpowered the mouth. The nigiri rice was also wrong, poor flavour and texture. We just took the fish off it and left the rice. The octopus was just weird. Both the texture and flavour were off. The mixed vegetable/langostino tempura came with no langostinos. They did bring us a generous portion of the missing, deep fried langostinos when we brought it the their attention. Regardless, the tempura batter was not panko and it was bland. The tentsuyu (dipping sauce) was flavourless and without bonito flakes. Oh and don’t expect any Japanese beers, which are light and tasty and go well with sushi. There’s Quilmes, the most generic of Argentinian beers, and Patagonia, which is a good Argentinian beer but to strong to have with sushi.

I wish I had something good to say about this place but I can’t find anything. It’s a tourist trap. And it’s...

It's a Japanese themed restaurant with a nice view, but far from authentic Japanese cuisine. honestly disappointed, was expecting something much better and akin to what they are representing. The building is nice, well decorated and it has direct access to the Japanese Garden (日本庭). You're received and seat by a waiter. We ordered 2 entrees which were good. The main dishes however were lacking in flavor (miso ramen in particular). The desserts were also so-so, the matcha (green tea) ice cream flavor was bland compared to the real thing, yet times more expensive. The personnel were OK but they kinda rushed everyone to eat and get out, as fast as possible. So, as I said and by the score I'm giving. It wasn't awful, it was OK, but I was expecting much better, specially for the price. I think they could really do much better and are missing on providing a more...

The view is the best part of this place, but the rest was disappointing. We went there for lunch after visiting the Japanese Garden, expecting a nice tourist-friendly experience. The food was average at best, and the service was not good. No one spoke English, and the staff didn’t really try to help or understand, which was surprising for a place that clearly gets many tourists. I also asked if there were any discounts for garden visitors. They told me that if you reserve a table at the restaurant, you can visit the garden for free. But if you buy a ticket to the garden first, you don’t get any discount at the restaurant. That policy felt confusing and a bit unfair. In the end, the view was lovely—but everything else didn’t live up to it. The most important for the restaurant - the food and simply isn’t worth...
