" I had high expectations based on the reviews, but unfortunately, my experience was mixed. While the ambiance was nice, the service felt disorganized. Our server seemed overwhelmed and it took a while to get our orders taken. The sushi was good, but some rolls felt dry and lacked that fresh taste I associate with great sushi places. I might give it another try on a less busy night, but I wasn’t completely satisfied this time. " (*Curated Review*)

" We celebrated our anniversary at Japonessa and it was an absolute delight! The omakase was exquisite, showcasing a variety of fresh flavors that kept us thrilled for every course. The staff went out of their way to make the experience special and memorable. The ambiance felt vibrant, perfect for a special occasion. If you’re a sushi lover, do not miss this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ever since I discovered Japonessa, I have been hooked. The restaurant perfectly marries Japanese sushi with fresh Latin flavors to create a unique and exciting menu. The Spanish Lover is my go-to roll! It's creamy and delicious, with fresh ingredients. It's delightful to dine here with friends as the environment is so lively and fun. I can’t recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally visited Japonessa after hearing so many great things, and I was not disappointed! The ambiance has a modern vibe and the staff was friendly. My sushi was incredible — I tried the calamari salad and some of the signature rolls. I found the prices quite reasonable considering the high-quality sushi. I’ll definitely be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" While I wanted to love Japonessa, I felt like the overall experience was quite average. The sushi was decent, but I've had better at other restaurants. The service was friendly but seemed chaotic at times. I didn't enjoy the ambiance as I expected it to be more relaxed. I’ve definitely tasted dishes that provided a much more authentic and satisfying experience elsewhere. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a cozy sushi place with a touch of Latin flavor, Japonessa is the place to go! We've been several times, and each visit has been fantastic. The menu offers a variety of creative rolls, and the fish is always fresh. One of the highlights for us is definitely the spicy tomato tofu — it's a must-try! The service is friendly but can be a bit slower when busy. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn't particularly impressed with Japonessa. The fusion idea is creative, but I found some of the combinations to be overwhelming. The atmosphere was lively, but not my favorite type of crowded space. There were parts that tasted good, but overall, it didn't perfectly nail the authenticity that I seek in a sushi restaurant. " (*Curated Review*)
