Hoshikuzu — Restaurant in Matosinhos

We have been here two times during lunch time and dinner time. It serves all you can eat sushi and Chinese food. Lunch time is better because less people are coming and our orders arrive faster than at dinner time. It is enough time not to repeat in the near future because of the price. Do not put so high expectations on the quality of food. It is just basic. I love the poke fruit bowl with salmon.

Cons The use of tablets for order somehow is confusing in the beginning, but after sometime it is easy to understand. The food is just basic and nothing very special compared to others. The soya sauce seems to have more water than the original one. Drink and dessert are not included to the price.

Pros Entrance accessible for wheelchairs. It is not a buffet but all you can eat food by ordering through a tablet. You can only order 15 pcs items each time and wait for another 5 minutes to order another. The restaurant has a great interior design. Everything looks beautiful and luxurious. The place is clean, tidy, cozy, spacious, and well-designed. It is good for eating with family or friends. Payment can be in cash or multibanco. The staff is quite friendly and nice. Free wifi is accessible inside the restaurant. The bathroom is free and clean. They have many tables available to serve...

By the amount of pictures you can see we tried basically everything.

Everything that is outside eating simple salmon or very basic sushi pieces, it is terrible.

The flavours are not great. A bunch of pieces come with weird sauces that ruin the experience.

Anything that is not sushi related is terrible, the sesame balls, the fried pork, the ramen, etc.

The restaurant was at most 75% full and the service was super slow. The things come in a weird order. They miss some items.

They didn't bring the sauces. How can it not be the first thing you bring? We had to ask them directly to a server.

Overall there isn't a single enjoyable thing that would make...

We were visiting the Costa da Caparica area on holiday and happened upon the Grand Opening...beautiful flowers flanked the entrance, modern sparkling interior with lights and comfortable semi-private seating areas, large open space. (Chairs, not traditional Japanese seating which I did miss.) Staff was very friendly and attentive. Food was fresh, delicious and served quickly. There are many Japanese and Chinese options, starters, soups, sushi and more to choose from and I also enjoyed the vegetarian dishes and fresh fruit. Our daughter loved ordering on the tablet. We wish the establishment a lot of luck...
