茉莉花 - Matsurika di Tokyo — Restaurant in Turin

To start we must declare that the iced Macha late ordered from the normal menu was excellent. The personnel of the restaurant were also enthusiastic and nice to us. That being said, the lunch special ordered via Too Good To Go was disappointing insipid hospital food but with no nutritional balance. The pricing was also incomprehensible. We bought an offer that should have consisted of a €12 menu value but looking later at the menu what we got had a list price of €28 if they were full size servings. Our favorite theory is that our leftovers were discounted because they contained no protein and perhaps only 2-3 grams of vegetable matter, total. It was substantially 2 containers of carbohydrate. Okonomiyaki: Kansai style, not Hiroshima (Tokyo) style. The structure and density of the pancake was more like a Chinese scallion pancake. There was no discernible dashi, pancetta, shrimp or yam. Cabage or other vegetable matter was extremely hard to find. One positive thing is that the condiments were imported and flavorful. Steamed rice: Mushy. Seemed overcooked/boiled.

We arrived at 20:45 and ate the main course around 23:00 The infuriating thing was when 30 minutes after ordering, they brought 4 gyozas for 7 people. If it hadn't been for the birthday boy wanting to eat there, I would have walked out. Also too expensive for Japanese street food. They evidently took too many orders to satisfactorily serve the people dining in the restaurant at that moment. The delicious food completely ruined by the...

The staff were kind but the food is awful. Not japanese food at all..the yakiniku don was salty and had too much sauce. The rice was floating in the sauce. The karaage don had also a lot of teriyaki sauce, it tasted too sweet. The gyoza soy sauce spilled over because the paper plate had small holes on the angles. It was really terrible. I dont understand where the 4.7 stars are coming from, I expected it to be delicious but it was not. It doesn't even deserve 1 star that I give (gave 1 cause I can't give 0),...
