Arowana Dore - Mérignac

Hi to everyone, I haven't seen any good reviews yet, so I'll be the first. I and my friends being big fans of Japanese cuisines used to frequent all the local Japanese/Chinese restaurants to eat makis in large quantities, and more so affinity with the rest of the buffet. the discovery of this restaurant in front of what was going on every day was a revelation! indeed, the restaurant is very quiet, large, spacious and clean, as well as very well isolated, we do not hear the cars or even the tram through the large bay window. for my opinion, it will be on the buffet at will because I have and never would take a menu I think. After being very kindly welcomed, we offer the buffet. Of course, there is not the usual amount of other restaurants but the quality is well present. For us who are a fan of makis, it's a pure delight. Everything is perfect for taste, rice, everything! the salmon is perfect, the california rolls are excellent and there are for all tastes (my cute sin, those with "saint moret". mmh), short, nothing to say. Moreover, in general, when you arrive, you put a slam in the makis dish and they are refilled the moment of spur. For hot dishes too, it's a pure treat. In general, in a buffet at will, hot dishes are all the same, the same industrial taste as here, everything is made in cuisine with love that feels in taste. We even had the right once to "pass command" because not having enough quantity, the server proposed to tell us what we would like to be cooked live in the kitchen. And finally, the desserts are very good and banal, except for the cream with homemade eggs that is a real happiness and reminds the one done by Mom.To conclude, this restaurant has become our new den or we go there quite often. the only negative point for me would be the lack of a loyalty card, but it would be bad for their business with me and my friends around! the price is very correct for quality, that is to say the same as other restaurants of the genre. I'll never go to coffee again until this restaurant is open!

We came to 2 dinner on Monday night and took the buffet formula. The server is very pleasant, concerning the buffet the quantities are small but often renewed so for us it is synonymous with quality. a lot of choice for Japanese for a buffet, drinks included in the menu, nothing to say.

Positive points: the room is really large, airy, very pleasant. the decoration is original, you feel the desire to create a unique environment. The welcome, finally, is extremely warm and pleasant; very informative and efficient staff.Improvement points :)the map! the restaurant is Japanese, but it leaves a little in every direction, Chinese/Japanese/French, especially for the buffet and its desserts. Finally, it may be normal for this kind of benefit...Japanese menus are better designed, at very reasonable prices. We have chosen à la carte dishes, the rates being affordable.Verdict: not bad at all. the dishes are served on nice wooden trays, all at home made air. I personally enjoyed the 100% home steamed, very good and fresh, nothing to do with the usually proposed bites.The makis were correct, a bit roughly rolled, but "house"! The honorable tuna tataki, chicken skewers not dry and tasteful. We spent a nice evening without pretension, with family, in the midst of other families. I guess at noon, with all the offices around, the atmosphere must be different.

Very nice very clean and very welcoming restaurant. buffet I find of medium size is pretty well garnished with desserts. Unfortunately big disappointment on the size of the product(spink, sachimi) the waiting time between the dish and long except for the buffet at will. very expensive for quantity. We can find much better.

We took the buffet at will (boisson soda à will)!, the highlight of this restaurant is the value for money. many choices, a panel of very pleasant flavors. Moreover we were entitled to a very good reception and an irreproachable service. a new restaurant that deserves to be a little more put forward.
