    Food was superb, atmosphere is great with the contemporary Japanese design. Their fried iced cream was okay.

    Very, very expensive and overpriced. Did I mention expensive? The food was pretty good though. Nice, well-lit atmosphere. It's a bit too "open" though since you can literally see the hotel lobby from where you sit.

    Worst experience ever!!! This is not an exaggeration!!! Nothing was to standards .. The seating area offers no privacy, it is located by the entrance to the hotel! I demanded to set at next door seating area. Food was substandard, stale to say the least, wasabi was so old and dry it was like clay and tasted funny.. The service was bad, chopsticks come in paper wraps, no napkins nothing of the old level of service and to top it all, their prices are as high as ever… I swear, if i picked up sushi from a supermarket it would have been of equal quality but at a fraction of the price… it is a shame that this is associated with a five star hotel!!! Come on people is there anyone in charge who is willing to validate their salary!!!!!!! What is happening to restaurants in kuwait, you can hardly have a satisfying experience lately!!!! What a shame!!!!

    I wanted something different so I decided to try Japanese in the hotel. The dining space partly extends into the lobby space which gives a sense of openness and is good for people watching. I was seated professionally and perused the menu on a PDF. I chose a collection of house rolls and the salmon teriyaki. The rolls were a little less spicey than I had expected, which in my case was a good thing. While I had to wait a little longer on the salmon than I expected, it was well worth the wait The salmon was a perfect temperature and very tasty. It was one of the best I have had indeed, in my various travels. All told I would recommend this restaurant.

    My favorite Japanese restaurant located at Holiday Inn Salmiya. Try the caterpillar Maki, it's the best!

  • 4/5 shaday m. 2 years ago on Google
    The server and waitresses were very kind and helpful but the maki wasn’t rolled very well and the flavor was different than usual. The salad and shrimp tempura were great!
