" Honestly, I had anticipated a great meal, but my experience fell short. The food was decent at Asai Kaiseki, but I felt it lacked the depth of flavor I usually enjoy from authentic Japanese cuisine. While the presentation was commendable, the flavors seemed muted. The service was also disappointing; I felt ignored for large portions of the meal. There were definitely some hits like the sashimi, but the overall meal didn’t live up to the hype. " (*Curated Review*)

" Asai Kaiseki offers an exceptional introduction to authentic Japanese food in Mexico City! The atmosphere was serene, with nice Japanese decor that elevated the dining experience. I ordered a variety of dishes, and every single one was delicious and executed beautifully. I particularly loved the unique touch they added with some local ingredients. It’s definitely a bit expensive, but you’re paying for quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" I read great things about Asai Kaiseki and decided to try it. While the food was undeniably tasty, I was a bit underwhelmed by some of the dishes—the flavors weren't as vibrant as I hoped. The service was attentive but could use a little more polish. The environment was great; it felt like a little slice of Japan in the heart of Mexico. I might come back to allow for a second impression. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Asai Kaiseki Cuisine was an unforgettable experience! Not only was the food incredibly delicious, but the presentation was like a work of art. Every dish felt like it was made with care and precision. Dining at the bar gave me a front-row seat to the culinary magic as Chef Asai prepared each course with artistry. I particularly loved the Cactus Sushi, a unique twist that perfectly blended flavors. The prices are high, but the quality justifies it. I would definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an outstanding dinner at Asai Kaiseki! The Omakase was exquisite and highlighted fresh local flavors blended beautifully with traditional Japanese techniques. The atmosphere struck the right balance between contemporary and heritage. However, the service wasn't as fluid as I would have liked; delays were noticeable at times. That said, it did not detract significantly from the meal. Treat yourself here for an amazing experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" The staff at Asai Kaiseki were friendly and helpful, but I felt like the service could have been quicker. I ordered a tasting menu, which was quite good but not life-changing. Some dishes stood out, like the Maki, but there were others that didn't impress me as much. The ambiance is cozy and neat, making it a nice spot for casual dining. Overall, I’d give it a middling rating. " (*Curated Review*)

" Asai Kaiseki is an incredible find in Mexico City! My experience was wonderful from start to finish. The decor is tasteful and gives an authentic feel to the entire experience. I loved the Omakase selections and the way each course was beautifully crafted. On a slightly pricey note, I left feeling satisfied and well-fed. I’ll definitely be back for more!
