Japanese restaurants in Mexico

  1. A

    Sumo

    An elegant Japanese restaurant with a feng shui minimalist look and lots of white, beige and tubular steel furniture. The food is Asian-authentic, with a vast menu that includes deep-fried noodles, sashimi, sushi, noodles, tempura and various imaginative tofu dishes. Wind up with a shot of cold sake.

    Negai

    Tijuana's hippest Japanese restaurant is minimalist to the extreme and very popular for its fusion cuisine, which draws more from Japan than Mexico. Sushi, sashimi, teriyaki dishes and a couple of curries are the primary dishes.

  7. Kucaramakara Sushi Bar and Lounge

    On a dusty street, this incongruously hip eatery capitalizes brilliantly on its proximity to the sea, serving super fresh rolls, tempura and sashimi in a contemporary setting.
