We originally had reservations at El Tragaluz but after being seated, we waited 30 minutes for our waiter come and bring the menus, something that never happened. All waiters ignored us so we got up and left. El Japones was nearby so we decided to eat here instead, not knowing it was...

We were guided here from a guide book, and it was crowdy so we had to wait half an hour for the table. It is possible to get a private table, but you could also end up being put in between some other guest. Good if you are out to make friends, bad if you want sushi with a romantic...
