Clam Sushi Izakaya — Restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City

Lunched there today, food quality is top notch; surprisingly better than some Japanese sushi outlets in District 1 which supposedly have Japanese chefs. Ordered Salmon, Scallops Sashimi and Gunkan sushis, all boxes checked for freshness, taste and presentation. Staff were attentive and helpful too.

I guess it’s because they had just opened for business. Regardless, overall experience was excellent and will definitely recommend picky sushi...

I think overall is a good place. But since it is new so it will take time to improve.

1. the portion is very different. The salad appetizer in my opinion is a bit too much. The fish is too little. Maybe need to revise it.
2. slow to deliver. Maybe will improve overtime
3. price is a bit pricey even compare to some Japanese restaurant in D1. Maybe because of rental and the surrounding area.

If they improve the quickness of delivery, the portion, i think this place might be a hit for office building.

Hope to try again in later stage where...
