Genuine Sake & Sushi Diner "Uotami" Nara JR Station — Restaurant in Nara

Review in English, Chinese and Korean. 下方有中文评论 아래에 중국어 리뷰가 있습니다.

Terrible experience – avoid if you're a tourist.

Food was decent, but the restaurant is clearly taking advantage of tourists in two ways:

They advertise “English and Chinese menu available” on posters outside and on signs at the entrance to attract tourists. In reality, there is no actual English or Chinese menu. You’re expected to scan a QR code and use your own browser (Safari or Chrome) to translate the Japanese digital menu yourself. Many restaurants at least offer multilingual digital menus after scanning, but not this one — despite their bold claim.

While the claim about multilingual menus is prominently displayed, the mandatory appetizer fee of ¥500 PER PERSON for a small dish of edamame is only mentioned in a barely visible sign at the entrance. There is no notice on the table or menu about this charge.

Blatantly misleading and tourist-unfriendly. Not recommended.

极差的体验——游客请避开这家店。

食物还算可以，但这家餐厅明显在坑游客，有两个方面：

他们在店外海报和入口处的标识上都写着“提供中文和英文菜单”，用来吸引游客。然而实际上并没有真正的中英文菜单，你只能自己扫码，然后用手机浏览器（Safari 或 Chrome）把日文的电子菜单翻译过来。很多餐厅会在扫码后直接提供多语言菜单，这家店却根本没有，还敢说“提供中英文菜单”。

虽然“提供中文和英文菜单”的宣传非常明显，但他们收取每人500日元的强制小菜费（毛豆），却只在入口处一个非常不显眼的角落标注。在桌子或菜单上完全没有说明这一点。

非常不透明也不友好，强烈不推荐。

観光客の方にはおすすめしません。

料理の味は悪くありませんが、このお店は観光客を欺くような対応をしています。具体的には以下の2点です：

お店の外や入口の看板に「英語・中国語メニューあります」と書いてありますが、実際にはそのようなメニューは用意されていません。QRコードを読み取って、自分のスマートフォンのブラウザ（SafariやChrome）で自力で翻訳しなければなりません。他のお店では、QRコードで多言語メニューを表示してくれるところもありますが、このお店はそれすらしてくれません。

外のポスターでは「英語・中国語メニューあり」と大きく書かれていますが、お通し代（枝豆）として1人あたり500 円を強制的に請求されます。これは入口の目立たない場所にしか書かれておらず、テーブルやメニューには一切記載がありません。

不親切で不透明な対応。観光客には全くおすすめできません。

관광객이라면 가지 마세요. 최악의 경험이었습니다.

음식은 나쁘지 않았지만, 이 식당은 관광객을 상대로 두 가지 방법으로 기만하고 있습니다:

가게 외부 포스터와 입구 벽에 “영어 및 중국어 메뉴 제공”이라고 분명히 적혀 있어 관광객을 끌어들입니다. 하지만 실제로는 영어/중국어 메뉴가 없으며, QR 코드를 스캔한 후 직접 휴대폰 브라우저(Safari 또는 Chrome)를 사용해 메뉴를 번역해야 합니다. 다른 식당들은 QR 코드로 다국어 메뉴를 제공하는 경우가 많지만, 이 식당은 그런 기본적인 서비스조차 제공하지 않습니다. 그럼에도 “영어 및 중국어 메뉴 제공”이라는 문구를 사용하는 것은 명백한 과장입니다.

“영어 및 중국어 메뉴 제공”이라는 문구는 눈에 잘 띄게 되어 있지만, 에다마메(콩)라는 작은 안주에 대해 1인당 500 엔의 강제 요금이 부과됩니다. 이 사실은 입구 구석에 작게 표시되어 있을 뿐이며, 테이블이나 메뉴판 어디에도 언급되어 있지 않습니다.

정보가 불투명하고, 관광객에게 매우 불친절한 곳입니다....

色々と最悪な店でした。 コース料理については陶板焼きが出ましたが、ポン酢と薬味で食べるのに、ポン酢が出てこなくて、ただの肉と野菜炒め状態で食べさせてようとするし、コースの写真見たらポン酢あるので確認したら、バイトはどんな料理かも分からないって言われる始末。 また寿司を食べるのにわさびは無いし、醤油のボトルは全てが空でどう食べればいいのかって、もう最初からメチャクチャでした。 止めに1人4,200円のコースを7人なのに、請求が42,000円（有料追加は無し）って恐ろし過ぎる店でした！ さすがはいろんな店の名前をパクって訴えられる事で有名なモンテローザ！

It was the worst shop in many ways.

As for the course meal, the pottery grill was served, but I ate it with ponzu vinegar and seasoning, but ponzu vinegar didn't come out, so I tried to let it eat it in a just-fried state of meat and vegetables, and when I looked at the picture of the course, there was ponzu vinegar, so if I checked, what kind of food is the part-time job? It's the end of being told that I don't know.

There is no wasabi to eat sushi again, and all the bottles of soy sauce are empty, so I was already a mess from the beginning.

It was a shop that was too scary to charge 42,000 yen (no additional charge) even though 7 people had a course of 4,200 yen per person!

As expected, Monterosa is famous for being sued for copying the names of...

Food is delicious. Convenient location. We tried a few small dishes, chicken wings, crab porridge, shrimp ramen with chicken broth- all of the food was yummy. We also got the individual room that’s given us privacy. Food arrived fast. Highly...
