    Lovely location. Really nice to dine outdoors overlooking the water. That said, this is some of the worst sushi on the planet. Itsu is better. The rice is overcooked, mushy and flavorless. The fryer is under temperature and everything fried is soggy with grease. The fish sinewy in a way I didn’t think possible. Highly disappointing given the cost and location. I mean the place has access to some of the freshest fish in the world. The least they could do is hire a few chefs who know what they are doing. An embarrassment.

    Some of the best sushi we've had for a very long time. We noted the previous reviews, occasionally not stellar, but it seems that the resort has read them too, as everything about this meal was first class. The sake was excellent (doesn't need heated in 30 degrees) while the sashimi was tasty. There are many options and all we tried, including the restaurant eponymous dish, were great. We'd recommend this restaurant to those residing in the Story Resort.

    Thanks for the entertaining Tepanyaki show! We experienced this the first time and we loved it! The staff is very friendly, asks all the right questions in beforehand and notes everything down! The chef was very friendly and entertaining but also very professional! The food was amazing and delicious! Although we came very hungry we had enough food with all the courses.

    (Translated by Google) The seyshima is a restaurant at the H Beau Vallon hotel in the north of Mahé. This Japanese establishment offers classic Japanese dishes revisited for an international clientele and executed in an open kitchen in tepaniaki style. The two chefs do not hesitate to put on a show in front of the customers seated at the counter that surrounds the kitchen. (Original) Le seyshima est un restaurant de l hotel H beau vallon au nord de Mahé. Cet établissement japonais propose les plats classiques de la cuisine japonaise revisites pour une clientèle internationale et exécutés dans une cuisine ouverte en mode tepaniaki. Les deux chefs n hésitent pas à faire le show devant les clients attablés au comptoir qui encercle la cuisine.

    (Translated by Google) The restaurant has two menus - one Chinese cuisine, the second (from 19:00 hours) - the so-called fish market. The restaurant is located in the center of Savoy, near the central pool. Nice quiet place, good service. We ordered baby octopuses on the grill, red snapper fillet with Seychelles curry + rice and grilled tuna steak with mashed potatoes. Sauces are served for all dishes: green with parsley and lemon, lemon-butter and Creole chili. Everything is very tasty and refined. Dinner with two glasses of wine cost 995 rupees = 65 euros. Fairly expensive, but for Seychelles priced rates. And the price pays off with taste! (Original) В ресторане два меню- одно китайская кухня, второе ( с 19:00 часов) - так называемый рыбный рынок. Ресторан находиться в центре Савоя- около центрального пула. Приятное тихое место, хорошее обслуживание. Заказывали беби-осьминогов на гриле, филе красного снэппера с сейшельским карри+рис и стейк тунца на гриле с картофельным пюре. Ко всем блюдам подаются соусы: зеленый с петрушкой и лимоном, лимонно-масляный и креольский чили. Все очень вкусно и изыскано. Ужин с двумя бокалами вина обошелся в 995 рупий= 65 евро. Достаточно недешево ,но для сейшельских цен норм. Да и цена окупается вкусом!

    The staff was lovely, the cook did a nice show and the Ambiente was wonderful with the water underneath. That's the good part. The food itself was weak, the meat was overcooked, the tofu was presented as a block and the friedrice was cold and overspiced. There were no standouts which is weak for a restaurant in that price range. The fried vegetables were fine, but just not worth the price. No recommendation for the show cooking whatsoever.

    In a word, weird. Good food, nice decor, but weird, unclear, and bizarre experience. Example: the server explained to that the chef would cook for us, but not do the show. Alright? Gave us a cocktail menu but never brought the cocktails we ordered (credited our bill for it at least). Numerous other service issues for other guests that we saw around the restaurant. So, again for us, not a terrible experience but just clear that it’s hit or miss at Seyshima. Also, as we were leaving the server threw a bunch of prawns into the water feature by the restaurant. Again, not egregious but just bizarre.

    Great experience of watching the food being prepared! Delicious Japanese cuisine and great ambiance. The restaurant is part of The Story resort in Seychelles

    Had 3 x starters between two people and one sushi roll each. It was really great. The receptionist at the hotel even drove us to the door of the restaurant in a golf cart. Would recommend.

    It is really bad. The quality is awful and the food is not fresh. The dumplings literally come from a frozen food bag… price is ridiculously expensive too.

    Very cozy restaurant by the lake. Food was good. Had the gyoza starter and then sushi as main course. Food was good, but missing a mixed plate sushi option. Service was excellent and the atmosphere was great. We will be back.

    (Translated by Google) An old Asian entertains with bad jokes spending your time. In rare moments, cooking lobsters and tuna to the taste of rubber. They could not finish eating, not to mention any minimal pleasure. A complete disappointment. (Original) Старый азиат развлекает плохими шутками тратя ваше время. В редкие моменты готовя лобстеров и тунца доводя до вкуса резины. Не смогли доесть ,не говоря о каком-либо минимальном наслаждении. Полное разочарование.

    (Translated by Google) For the ambience, the friendliness, the service and also the show of the chef there are full 5🌟. It tasted very good and also deserved 5🌟. In a restaurant of this price range, however, I must also use the standards of the price range for the assessment, and there is 1⭐️ deduction for the lobster tail, which, prepared in classic Japanese, was too long on the hot plate. If you know Lobster, you know what that means, the lobster meat became a bit rubbery. There is another ⭐️ deduction for too much soy sauce, which has masked the shrimp's intrinsic taste, and has also given some flavor to tuna and lobster. If there were, then I would like to forgive an antidote star, I do not know how they did it, but we did not sting any mosquito - and the place is on a lake 😊 (Original) Für das Ambiente, die Freundlichkeit, den Service und auch die Show des Küchenchefs gibt es volle 5🌟. Es hat vieles sehr gut geschmeckt und ebenfalls 5🌟 verdient. Bei einem Lokal dieser Preisklasse muss ich aber auch die Maßstäbe der Preisklasse zur Beurteilung heran ziehe, und da gibt es 1⭐️ Abzug für den Hummerschwanz, der, klassisch japanisch vorbereitet, zu lange auf der heißen Platte war. Wer Hummer kennt, der ahnt was das bedeutet, das Hummerfleisch wurde etwas gummihaft. Einen weiteren ⭐️ Abzug gibt es für zu viel Sojasoße, die den Eigengeschmack der Garnelen zugedeckt hat, und auch dem Tunfisch und dem Hummer einiges an Geschmack genommen hat. Wenn es den geben würde, dann würde ich gern noch einen Antimückenstern vergeben, ich weiß nicht wie sie es gemacht haben, aber uns hat keine Mücke gestochen - und das Lokal liegt auf einem See 😊

    Daria and the team at Pescado are exceptional. Particularly Daria goes over an above to make you feel welcome and comfortable. The whole team are brilliant at catering for dietary requirements. in terms of seafood, it is completely fresh and Daria on several occasions helped select what turned out to be delicious seafood items. We would highly recommend Pescado for food and service!

    (Translated by Google) The restaurant is located within the prestigious Hotel Svoy, the design of the restaurant is impressive and is right by the pool illuminated at night. The restaurant specializes in fresh seafood that diners choose and their way of doing. There is also an Asian menu, everything we ordered from there was medium and with exactly the same sauce on different ingredients was very disappointing. Funny but the kids menu is not at all bad ... The restaurant is very expensive - in terms of the island and also in general ... I got used to giving 3 stars on my personal experience but there were people with me who enjoyed it so it was fixed every 4 stars. (Original) המסעדה ממוקמת בתוך מלון Svoy היוקרתי, עיצוב המסעדה מרשים והיא ממש על שפת הבריכה המוארת בלילה. המסעדה מתמחה במאכלי ים טריים אשר הסועדים בוחרים אותם ואת דרך ומידת העשייה שלהם. במקום קיים גם תפריט אסייתי, כל מה שהזמנו משם היה עשוי בינוני ועם אותו רוטב בדיוק רק על מצרכים שונים היה מאוד מאכזב. מצחיק אבל תפריט הילדים בכלל לא רע... המסעדה יקרה מאוד - במושגים של האי וגם בכלל... התקוטנתי לתת 3 כוכבים על החוויה האישית שלי אבל היו איתי אנשים שיחסית נהנו ולכן זה התקבע כל 4 כוכבים.

    Spectacular dinner, with great food and nice ambience. The cook was very entertaining and really knew how to make for an unforgettable evening. The fish, the lobster, the beef was superb. It is pricey but worth the money.

  • 3/5 György S. 4 years ago on Google
    Not good. Staff is pretending being Japanese, but they are not. Sushi is mediocre. Tuna teppanyaki was good. Very expensive.

  • 3/5 The Ghost Of Ricky R. 4 years ago on Google
    Overpriced sushi made with stodgy rice. If you can’t get the rice right you shouldn’t be making sushi, period. Although the ambiance is alright, you’d still be better off going to Coral Strand instead.

  • 5/5 Nicolai S. 5 years ago on Google
    We had several fish and seafood from the"market". It was delicious! The staff is super friendly and makes you feel welcome all the time. It was a wonderful evening and we enjoyed our stay. The prices are appropriate for what you get.
