Café Japengo Review

Located in the Hyatt, this minimalist cafe serves innovative Pan-Asian cuisine and specializes in fresh seafood and sushi. Red, white, and black Japanese kites adorn the simple walls, providing only temporary distraction from the busy sushi chefs, who command attention in the cozy space. Start with Asian marinated duck salad or Okinawa soup with shrimp, shitake mushrooms, and sake. For the main event, try the Marco Polo: udon noodles with filet mignon, lobster, shrimp, and mushrooms in a ginger lemon-grass broth. There's also fried rice, Hunan beef, and basil chicken, and more than enough green tea to slake any thirst.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
