SAMURAY ROLL fonda japonesa sits quietly on P.o de la Boquita in Zihuatanejo’s Centro, offering a modest and straightforward spot for Japanese cuisine away from the more tourist-heavy areas. This is a full-service Japanese restaurant that draws locals and visitors who want an honest, no-frills meal focused on flavor rather than fuss. The interior is understated, lending itself to casual lunches or early dinners rather than lively nighttime crowds.

Many who stop by come specifically for their ramen and sushi, with the Ramen de Res noted as a popular choice. Portions here tend to be on the smaller side, which suits those looking for a light yet satisfying meal rather than a heavy dinner. Diners appreciate that the sushi balances rice and fish well, avoiding the excess rice common at nearby places, making it feel like a more authentic experience.

Service is friendly and attentive, adding to the approachable vibe that makes you feel comfortable even if it’s your first time trying Japanese food in this beach town. The restaurant’s signage doesn’t stand out much, so those unfamiliar with the neighborhood might need a little guidance to find it, but it rewards those who do with straightforward, solid-quality dishes.

Visitors who enjoy samplers or combos tend to find good value here, especially if you want a bit of variety without a steep price tag. It's a place where locals might come after work or during quieter afternoons to enjoy Japanese comfort food in a relaxed setting without the bright hustle of Zihuatanejo’s main tourist spots.

Overall, SAMURAY ROLL is well suited for anyone craving well-made ramen and sushi in a casual, local-minded atmosphere, particularly those who appreciate quality over quantity and dislike overly busy dining scenes.

El sushi y sus Ramen muy ricos, presentaciones pequeñas no llenan, le falta letrero al lugar, para saber que es ahí, para los que somos de fuera.
