* Food Taste - 4 stars. Authentic Japanese cuisine without the frills. The tempura though I would rather that the batter does not separate or crumble when touched. There were times that they were overcooked and the batter tended to be quite a challenge.
* Food Selection - 5 stars. Wide selection of Japanese dishes and a sprinkle of Chinese ones.
* Cleanliness - 1 star. The place at quick glance looks clean but a careful inspection will tell you that its not. I mean its dusty and theres a general smell of dampness of the place once you enter. The cigarette stench is also strong since apparently they let their customers smoke every so often during night times.
* Price - 5 stars. Get the salmon sashimi. Big juicy pieces that really taste fresh! Definitely value for money though not for cleanliness.
* Servers - 2.7 stars. The servers at this branch seem like they eternally lack sleep. They don't seem to exude happiness when called over. Can be quite a downer. Also, make sure to ask what accompanies the dishes that you ordered. The first time we ate here we had no idea that practically everything we ordered came with soup, rice, coffee and a dessert that we ordered rice separately. We were drowning in rice.
With the Morato branch under renovation, we tried the Pedro Gil branch. They accept reservations. Servers were attentive. Had the chirashi and uni, bento box and teppanyaki. Serving size is okay. The sashimi pieces could be thicker. Their sets come with miso soup and a dessert. Spent 2,300 pesos for the three of us.

Great value-for-money on the dishes’ serving size and taste.
Been here multiple times and enjoyed good and authentic sashimi, sushi, udon, ramen, teppan, and tempura dishes. I recommend dining in at lunch to avail of their set meals for an optimized bargain.
Their tsukemen wasn’t that great, though. They can improve on the broth and topping choice - but all in all, a great place to dine and enjoy good and affordable Japanese food.
Been here with my friends for a group project and I can say that the food is worth the price in terms of the generous serving especially of their ramen which is honestly good for 2 persons already. The taste is there. The server is attentive. The ventilation is just not that good.
No frills Japanese restaurant. They offer authentic tasting food without the arte of the place nor the plating.
I was not in the mood to try anything raw so I ordered the usual gyoza, tempura and gomoku chahan.
Gyoza is about 8 packed pieces, must order. I ordered the mix tempura due to the eggplant and okra included, should've stick to the ebi tempura instead since the mix is more expensive and there are many vegetables I didn't eat. Gomoku Chahan (miso soup included) taste authentic and walang dagdag na kaartehan. Also ordered the Asari Sake Mushi, about 20+ fresh clams.
Overall, I would definitely return to try their other dishes.
I love their Tuna Spicy Maki! Ordered it with the Seafood ramen and I was so satisfied with the meal. The portions actually quite large. So better share your order.. or not.
Overall good and delicious Japanese food!
We got a serving of Crazy Maki, Gyoza, and the Ume Bento. Food was good! Huge servings. Service was good too, the staff were very attentive. It's four stars because I think the lighting could use a little remodeling.
Really affordable Japanese resto. I tried their ramen, gyoza, and a few others -- all decent. I've yet to try their sushi platter, though, and the areas with traditional Japanese tables 😅
I had a long walk along Ermita and Malate area when I realized my craving for Japanese food. I have already a place in mind but it so happened I passed along Nihonbashi Tei. I decided to try it here.
I ordered Ume Bento, the least pricey among the bentos in the menu. It has a lot of food items! Tuna and tamago sashimi, beef stew and gyudon, tonkatsu and salad, pickled gerkins with kani and squid, agedashi tofu, miso soup and rice. That was a lot, wasn't it?
It was really a good decision to have dropped by this place and experience their Japanese cuisine. Winner!
Nihonbashi Tei is the true home of authentic Japanese food on this side of town. You can eat it sitting on the floor, as the Japanese do.
Takoyaki and gyoza were excellent, although a bit on the pricier side. Rice bowls are average.
