"There are many surprises in life, but finding not just sushi this good but proper Japanese cuisine in this corner of Italy was a welcome surprise. Bear in mind the pride of the Italians, it is not so likely that you find ANY other cuisine except for I am told a fairly popular 'Tex Mex ' we all have to rebel against Mama 's cooking eventually even if only for a night . So my expectations were not high, but I was blown away not just by the quality of food, but decor and service too. I am told he is leaving soon, but our waiter Riccardo spoke english perfectly and was patient and friendly and by the end of the first visit we went twice in a week was laughing and enjoying a drink with us at the end. The food ...surprisingly I am not the greatest fan of Sushi except for Sashimi it should be about simple quality of ingredients and preparation, not how many things you can think . of to throw together but europeans don 't buy into that concept , I find modern sushi over complicated, but it was VERY good, why, the care and attention in preparation quality of ingredients. My co diners were also very impressed. What got me is that for the first time outside of London or Japan I was able to eat Unagi Domburi grilled eel on rice and it was not just available, it was FANTASTIC. We also tried the Teriyaki Chicken and I was also blown away ...top quality chicken, properly cooked before the sauce added to the perfect quality and quantity consider myself to be an expert in the finer points of this dish and am rarely this impressed and it is so often just thrown together to make those who don 't like sushi happy . Lets I forget forget the Miso soup ..local wild mushrooms I think plus a quails egg that poaches in your bowl as you eat if you don 't break it with your spoon you will find this hidden gem is also highly recommended. I was with friends, but if you have a date near Asolo you will be sure to impress him/her with a night here, the food, decor, lighting and ambience mean all you have to take care of is your captivating conversation ; I massive double thumbs up from me."
