Washoku-j - Cebu City

Delicious sushi and japanese food. The design of the place will really catch your attention and I was expecting a much higher price. Everything isaffordable except for the eel.Not everything was available from their menu.

Be ready for a very, and I mean very, extensive menu offerings. Their food is really good. My personal favorite is their sukiyaki-nabe. It's a ramen-sized bowl of the sukiyaki complete with udon noodles, sukiyaki-cut beef, vegetables and egg.

Loved the traditional Japanese vibes that this restaurant offers. Generous in serving size, paired with helpful, kind, and accommodating waitresses. Tried their Shougayaki-Don and the flavor is very similar to the familiar pork rice bowl in every Japanese restaurant, but more generous in serving. However, it is saucier and offers more umami flavor. Their chicken teriyaki and katsudon is also remarkable. They accept cash and cards.

My go-to sushi restaurant in Cebu. It is hard to find decent sushi in the Philippines, Washoku-J is definitely not high class but far above average compared to many other places. AMBIENCE: is amazing. I love the decor and they've kept it to look very authentic and Japanese. They even sell some handmade items that look adorable. FOOD: Compared to sushi in Japan it is definitely not the best, but for Filipino sushi I think it is amazing! I've found the quality of food in most Japanese places to be below average, but not at Washoku-J. They have a big selection and I have liked all that I've tried. The best one (and most expensive) is their eel roll! A must try! Service: The service might be a bit slow sometimes, and it's hard to get someone's attention when it's busy. But! I have an allergy to gluten (wheat) and they have always been very accommodating in adapting dishes and sauces so that I could still eat them. This is rare in the Philippines! At most places I get a weird look or they simply don't care.

Quirky Japanese restaurant. Was very pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food. This place has a limited number of tables but has a very extensive range of choices on the menu. We enjoyed everything that we ordered but its the beef (katsu and roll) that really left an impression.
