Review summary

What guests say about Le Château Maneki

Château Maneki is often described as a small, intimate, and warm restaurant, with a polished atmosphere, original decor, and an enjoyable experience for a dinner for two or with friends. The food gets a lot of praise for its reinvented sushi, original flavors, and drinks/mocktails, and the service is frequently seen as attentive and quick. On the other hand, several reviews mention small portions, high prices, and sometimes wait times or issues with reservations and welcoming guests. It’s a good choice if you’re looking for a unique experience, but less so if you want large portions or good value for the amount of food.

Not a traditional sushi shop. Awesome selection of mocktails ♥️ Had a good Mother's Day lunch there.

Ordered here on May 2nd 2026. As a previous commenter, I cannot speak of the service or Atmosphere in tje reataurant as it was an Uber Eats order. I ordered 5 different Uzisushi. Order was placed around 4h15 pm, paying extra for priority delivery. Was supposed to arrive more or less 1 hour later, no problem. Finally, prepping from the restaurant took much longer than anticipated and left the restaurant at 6pm. Arrived here at 6h40pm. So 2h30 total. Then, as a previous commenter, between the sauce (whicb essentially what each sushi tasted) and the rice, you wonder where the fish is if any. 20$+/sushi for rice and sauce is pretty dissapointing. Don't know if this is how they serve and portion delivery orders, but if that's the case, not very sustainable way doing business to save on costs- good luck getting repeat customers, and now it's for sure I won't try it in person.

Pretty good food. I like the different flavors. I am not used to it so it was a bit new for me, but I liked it. The service was very nice. The lady greeted us when we came in and took care of us for the whole evening. The overall atmosphere and vibe of the restaurant is very nice.

The food was delicious! Appreciated the experience of the culinary creativity with their pressed sushis and their maneki dog. The portion felt a bit small but was worth it for the experience. Also enjoyed their yuzu biru. It was just an added squeeze of yuzu in beer but it made quite the difference. The atmosphere and the interior was cozy and elegant at the same time. The 2nd floor was smaller than expected but I think it fitted the intimate vibe. Also having a staff greeting on the upper floor felt creative and fun. I just wish there was a staff guiding us to make our way up. I was confused at first and had to peak through the window on the lower floor.

The place is simply beautiful, with a wonderful atmosphere. The service was perfect from beginning to end, and the food was extremely delicious. I would also like to give a special thanks to Darey, who made the BEST Licor 43 drink. It was an incredible experience, and I will definitely be coming back!! (Obs: Don’t leave without trying the matcha tiramisu!!)

Had a great overall experience. We tried quite a few things on the menu. Not everything was to our liking but everything was fresh and beautifully presented. All of the server's recommendations were amazing. The cocktail we tried was A+. The ambiance was eclectic and inviting however be warned it is fairly small but the layout was well thought out. My family and I enjoyed it and will definitely come back.

Everything was so good. The building and interior decorations are super unique. Our favourite though was the sushi hot dogs. Highly recommend if you are a fan of sushi to try this place cause they serve it in an interesting way that’s very delicious. Would definitely go back!

It's really good but so expensive. It used to be 10$ now 15$ in a year gap for the rice and fish plate there. That's a huge increase and the portions are tiny, sometimes I get very little fish at all for that price. Wish they were more reasonable because I just can't eat there often given the portion size and prices.
