We were given menus which seemed to be meals for two but were in fact each person and so the meal was very expensive

The chef was very entertaining and got everyone involved, even my 8 year old, who enjoyed the show and food so much he wanted to return the next day! The food was delicious, cooked in front of us and to our specification. I thought... More

First impressions were not great. We had made reservations for 8pm but because we turned up 10 minutes early it really seemed to throw them. After giving our name to 3 people we were finally seated. Samisen probably caters best for groups and families and they don't seem to know what to do with a couple! We were told that... More

The staff were excellent and the highlight was the Teppanyaki chef. he had us in stitches with his brand of humour and interaction. Food was great and the drinks were delivered quickly. Staff were attentive and helpful... More

My first time eating Japanese food. They really put on a great show of cooking the meal in front of you. The chef should be in showbiz.

This is a must visit if you are anywhere near Paphos! I can not praise this place too much! The staff are really friendly, and make you feel really welcome. The chiefs are very good are their job and are entertaining at the same time. They all introduce themselves at the start of the night and strike up a good... More
