Het geheel voelt ruimtelijk aan, met grote tafels die voldoende privacy bieden – zelfs voor duo’s. De ambiance wordt als “gezellig” en “ontspannen” beschreven, een ideale plek voor zowel een romantisch diner als een groepsuitje.

Reserved a few weeks before the date through their website, without any issue.
Very nice decor and space, tables are large and even for two, the smallest table seems to be for four people, so it’s very conveniant. Autumn leaves (not real ones obviously) separate the space in a charming manner. Washroom is clean.
Service was very good, every one was friendly and explained as much as we requested or needed! We interacted with a couple of waiters throughout our time, every one was friendly, one was even apologizing for one sashimi set coming a bit late, even if it wasn’t really!
Food and portions were really generous. We started by the A5 Wagyu 100g grill piece, medium rare. It is both very crispy on the outside, and melting in the inside. This combination is great and made the fat not overwhelming.
We then had the large sashimi set, which is very well presented and has more pieces than we initially expected (note that there is no set number of pieces, it’s the total weight you pay for). The scallops are good, creamy and tasty. The bluefin toro is fat, a bit more chewy than expected. Every other pieces are generous both in size and taste. The wasabi is not a paste but kizami (chopped wasabi), which adds a crunchy texture.
Finally, we had the AH-UN wagyu special set, there were 24 pieces composed of different parts. The ox-tongue is my favorite, both chewy and softly melting in your mouth! Eating as many wagyu pieces can be overwhelming for your tastebuds as the fat is very present, but there were some pieces with little to no fat which are usually less appreciated, but in this case, it created a nice balance to the set. Side dishes are nice, maybe a little bit more vegetables in the set would be welcome, but this is nitpicking.
Lastly, for this “3-course meal”, even if it was composed of the most expensive choices of the menu, the quantity was generous and the quality was there, so I feel it was well worth the price. This was a special occasion so we had some extras, but you can have a very nice meal at a lesser price here, which is very nice. We’ll probably come back to do that!
Nice place – cozy design, good service, many tables. The rolls look beautiful, the grilled meat is also nice and tasty. Prices are a little higher than average. Additionally, they provide many different sauces for dishes.
I had an absolutely beautiful dinner here on Saturday evening. If you are a sushi fan then I would highly recommend adding it to your list if you are in the area. Quality was beautiful and is some of the best sushi I have had. The Tokyo set for the grill
is also a must. Thank you AH-UN.
It was a very terrific place to have dinner. Nicely decorated, friendly staff and enjoyable food. We went for the Wagyu bbq set and weren’t disappointed. May be pricey, but absolutely worth the money.
Their chicken karaage and crispy salmon avocado roll was good! The staff were nice and accommodating. We ate at an off peak time (around 1:30PM) so service was fast.
We have been here to celebrate the bday if my sister and what a joy to have celebrate it an AH-UN.
We started with some cocktails to get the part starting. The quality of the cocktails could be better, but take into consideration that we consider ourselves as amateur mixologists. On of our hobby’s is to make high quality cocktails. So perhaps that is not completely fair. Nevertheless the cocktails tasted good.
We ordered our food which was a combination of the BBQ and sushi. The staff was so friendly and guided us to menu card and gave advice what we could order and also in which quantity (we were with 6 people). We had broken our order up in three parts to enjoy the food to the fullest.
We started with sushi and sashimi. The sashimi was the mix platter were the star of the platter was the bluefin torro tuna (premium fatty tuna). This has one of the best sashimis one can get in Rotterdam.
The sushi was not bad at all, if I may give a tip to bring more harmony in quality standards is to use ‘crab meat’ rather than the surimi sticks. I believe that the surimi sticks are not representing the high quality standards AH-UN wants to deliver.
After the sushi we continued with some fried chicken, meat skewers and of course the highlight of the evening, BBQ. The BBQ choice comes rice, salad, soup and kimchi. We had taken the Wagyu set and the Tokyo set to also have some diversity in meats. Obviously quality of the meat was impeccable. The meats were accompanying with two sauces (sweet/sour and spicy) and salt/lemon.
We had called it a night with the grand dessert.
We really enjoyed the friendly and warmth of the service. The staff did their best to make us feel comfortable, which we of course appreciated a lot. We wanted therefore thank the kitchen and front staff again for an unforgettable night.
Heerlijk!!
With no doubt, we will be back.
Atmosphere is relaxed. The team is very professional and friendly.
5/5 with no doubt.
