Sushisom Bilbao Intermodal — Restaurant in Bilbao

Disclaimer: Me and my friends have discussed and written this review. Since we were really disappointed we will post it once per customer/one of us.

We started ordering one nigiri of each type since they are always our go to sushi type, well, we didn't order more than those ones. Bland, soft and slimy rice with paper thin (and paper texture, I don't know how the tuna could be so dry) fish on top. It was flavourless, not even soaking them in soy sauce could save them.

We had many surprises on our first time at Sushisom Intermodal and none of them were good ones. Since when are dumplings supposed to have hard plastic pieces inside of them? Ours certainly had one, hard enough to break a tooth and at least "luckily" big enough to spot it.

The waiters were silent and didn't really care about us, we aren't anybody to judge since they are probably getting paid the minimum wage, but a smile from time to time or not putting the plates on the corner of the table wouldn't kill them (at least the main waitress (one out of six) was nice)

The fried food items and also those ones that were supposed to be eaten hot/warm arrived late and cold. Even the takoyaki was slightly cold sometimes.

We get that in order to make more profit they force you to order a drink each person, but then we should be receiving bottled water and not just tap one. Every bottle came already opened, which it's suspicious at least. It's the first buffet in which even if we weren't full we weren't willing to order more food since there was no attractive options...

if you come to dinner with a child and you are not hungry, you still have to order 2 endless menus (which do not include drinks or desserts). and yes, cool fines for uneaten dishes, 2 euros for each. as a result, dinner can cost not 24 euros, but 40 per person. and having tried a couple of sushi from your companion's plate, you are forced to pay for 2 menus. instead of enjoying the food, we got stress, sitting in a restaurant like in prison, when a waiter watches you so that you do not try anything from your friend's plate. sushi is delicious but this stress is not worth it. and I am talking specifically about the waitress from the restaurant on San Mames, who scolded me for trying food from my daughter's plate, and wanted to make me pay...

The food at the buffet was absolutely delicious, and I found myself sampling an extensive variety of dishes. Among all the options, sushi stood out as my favorite... It was exquisite; it had such a delightful texture that it seemed to melt in my mouth with every bite.

The staff were friendly and attentive.

Just a heads up for anyone planning to visit, drinks are billed separately in addition to the buffet price, so make sure to factor that into your total cost.

Overall, it was a memorable experience filled with...
