Great restaurant if you are looking for something different from traditional Japanese rolls. Here they have very unique Brazilian inspired rolls for example with bananas. The cocktails are very good too! The restaurant is not cheap but it is definitely worth it. It is very small and remember to book online in advance!

This place does not exist at this address. It is a Carabinieri station So I have no idea how there food would be. We went to Daruma Sushi down the street.

I’ll be honest. One of the first things I noticed upon entry was the endearingly exotic pineapple wallpaper that covered Temakinho’s dimly lit walls. Instant vacation! Temakinho is a small gem in Monti but it is far from hidden. In order to eat here my group of 5 had to make reservations a week prior. A week! Consider yourself warned. It’s also worth noting that Temakinho doesn’t serve Japanese style sushi. It’s more of a Brazilian take on sushi. As an abroad student here in Rome, I was ready to get a little gastronomically adventurous since I’ve been on a steady diet of Pizza, Pasta, Pizza, Pasta, Repeat. We started with the oh-so-alcoholic cocktails. I ordered a Mango«cocktail» with something stronger than Saki in it(name unknown) and was not impressed. It tasted like a mixed drink you’d find in a sorority comprised only of dining hall juice and the strongest, albeit cheapest, alcohol the sisters could find. On top of the drink was a colony of indiscernible small, tart berries. They were in the drink more as a garnish but served more as an annoyance as they continued to get stuck in my straw and made sipping a real process. I’d highly recommend the vegetarian roll(everyone can get on board with that – no raw fish!). Between us five girls we must have eaten 3 or 4 of them. The breaded salmon roll was fabulous as well. If you don’t speak Italian fluently, request an English menu as the language barrier is pretty real. Our waiter was gracious and patient however, and he worked double to ensure our needs were being met and we understood what we were ordering. Sushi is pretty hard to find in Rome, Brazilian is even harder. If you’re fancying an exotic meal or just wanna stray from the beaten path of carbohydrates, give Temakinho a try.

Fabulous original experience in Rome, a really cute concept and a pleasant change from the usual tedium of Italian or Japanese food with little variety in between. Only one real option for 100% vegetarians may be a bit of a negative. Smoothie with mango was the closest I got to Hawaii without a long flight!
