Best KPortal Reviews
I went for the first time last night, expecting the usual excellence from Mandarin Oriental. Used to Rasoi and Yakumanka, I had high expectations from Sachi as well.
Service was impeccable, Federico made sure that everything was fine and he prepared excellent, balanced cocktails. He even prepared a special request for me, which was highly appreciated.
The quality of the fish was, of course, good, but... the ratio of the rice with the fish was not great: too much rice, especially for the cut rolls. I'm sorry, but at the proposed price, sushi must be perfect. I don't mind spending for excellence, but I expect excellence. And it was not.
Nigiri and hosomaki rice ratio was acceptable (I say acceptable, not great), but the cut rolls ratio was not acceptable. I almost couldn't taste the fish, and the rolls were huge, which also makes them not easy to eat in one bite (I did, my mother had difficulty).
The beef crispy rice was amazing: definitely the high of the meal.
We've also tried the signature dessert, and it was nice, not wow, though.
Another disturbing point, the drinks: charging 10chf for a san pellegrino and 14chf for a bottled 33cl beer that I could buy at the supermarket for 1.5chf is taking the client for a fool. I'm well aware of the habit of overcharging in luxury restaurants, but... but at the least, please make the effort of proposing a more niche brand to justify the price. Propose something I can't buy at the supermarket for 10 times less... 10! Cocktails are different: there is research, work, and that is chargeable, of course.
This is not just an issue of Sachi but also of other Michelin star/gastronomic places. But if the management can hear me and take my piece of advice, I can tell that my point of view is widely shared: please make an effort on the selection at least, or don't overcharge such common brands.
Lastly, I'm a member fan of MO, and even though I've specified that when I've reserved, it changed nothing to the treatment.
Although the service was a 10/10 (again, thank you Federico), this doesn't justify 180chf per person if the rest is not perfect as well.
Top! For me one of the best restaurants in Geneva! Take the 10 courses Omakase. I think its one of the best price / quality experience you can make in Geneva
Dining at Sachi Japanese restaurant, located within the prestigious Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Geneva, offered an overall good experience tinged with certain issues that could detract from the high expectations set by its gourmet and luxury setting. The ambiance initially presented an unexpected inconvenience; the restaurant was notably cold, prompting the hostess to suggest seating in the veranda, claimed to be warmer. This situation was a bit surprising for a hotel of Mandarin Oriental’s caliber, where comfort should be paramount. Observing a few fellow guests resorting to wearing their coats indoors due to the temperature was not an ideal start to what one would expect to be a seamless dining experience.
The service, particularly in relation to drinks, was a highlight. The wine list was impressive, showcasing a great selection from the world over. The cocktails were all well-presented and savory. However, the absence of wine pairing suggestions with the offered menus was a missed opportunity to elevate the dining experience further. For a restaurant of Sachi's stature, with a sommelier on service, such an offering seems like a basic expectation to meet the gourmet dining standards it aspires to represent.
A noticeable departure from traditional Japanese cuisine was the inclusion of non-traditional ingredients such as green Tabasco or siracha sauce used in dishes. While innovation in cuisine is often welcomed, the use of these ingredients felt out of place in what is presented as an authentic Japanese dining setting.
Despite these criticisms, the food presentation was undeniably five-star, with each dish served beautifully, a testament to the chefs' skill and attention to detail. Highlights included the salmon tataki and the langoustine (perfectly cooked), though the latter's sauce did not meet the same high standard. The black cod was very well prepared and delicious. The A5 Wagyu steak had bone fragments, which was a first. It was offered with several different sauces and the truffle sauce lacked truffle flavor. The wagyu was oddly paired with legumes identical to the side vegetable dish, a choice that lacked creativity.
The dessert course offered a mixed experience; the cheesecake was delightful, striking the right balance of flavors and textures. Conversely, the 64% dark chocolate mousse sphere, black garlic was inconsistent, with an uneven distribution of flavor that oscillated between overly intense black garlic notes and portions lacking any distinctive taste.
I'd like to highlight that the young server assigned to us performed exceptionally well in servicing our table and attending to our needs.
best sushi restaurant i have ever tried in Geneva. food is very fresh and taste amazing. Service is very good, definitely will visit here more
Je suis allé hier avec mon conjoint pour célébrer son anniversaire. Le dîner était parfait ! Nous avons pris le Menu Sachi et ça vaut vraiment le coup ! On a tellement bien mangé, qualité et présentation des plats au rdv, le service impeccable… vraiment un super dîner ! Merci !
My girlfriend and I dined at SACHI couple of days ago, we both went for the SACHI Menu which includes 2 starters, one main with side dish and desert. For starters we had Seared Tuna, Sea Bass Usu-Zukuri, salmon sashimi and crispy rice spicy tuna tartare, for mains beef fillet and black cod accompanied by traditional miso soup and a vegetarian Yaki-Meshi, we also ordered mochi as desert to finish off. The food was super flavorful and the service staff were very attentive. We spent a total of 220 CHF for food alone plus a little extra for drinks.
Considering the overall quality of dinner, service, ambiance and the fact that we are in Geneva at the Mandarin Hotel we found the price very honest. We did manage to take couple of pics, here starters, one main and dessert.
Thanks for the wonderful evening!
After visiting most of the formal high end Japanese restaurants in Geneva area. I think this one tops all in town. My way of giving it a too stop includes service as a very important component. I think when one wants to have this meal, it is mostly around feeling good about life or a celebration or an important formal business meeting. For all of the above food matters but service has to be Swiss hospitality style. I think that takes over and makes your dining and moment great. This one also take top spot because of ambiance. Japanese restaurants are everywhere but managements have failed to upscale service around it. To top all the above, I rate food in top tier too. Loved every bite and thoroughly enjoyed the flavours. My favourite was sea bass and Wagyu. Evening time is best time to enjoy this place.
Excellente expérience ! Chaque bouchée était un pur délice, offrant des saveurs raffinées, notamment les sushis, les crispy rice et le Black Cod. Les cocktails étaient également exquis. Je recommande vivement et me réjouis de revenir.
