Japengo is a new Japanese restaurant located in Shatti Al Qurum area on Shari3 Al Hub (Love Road).

I went there on the first day and it's really good.. Loved the atmosphere, design and of course food!

Have you been there yet? If not, I recommend that you do :)

Yaay, finally :). I love Japengo!

Oh yeeeey a new asian restaurant :hyper:

Excellent!! Finally a bit more variety than italian, fast food and kargeen :p
and it's on the loooove road too - should be really good!!

We don't need these kind of restaurants there .. we need those Sheesha cafe's there!

Ross am not with you in the sheeesha thing!

its dangerous! worst than smoking a cigar .

People go somewhere near the beach not to die.. :bored:
You all already took over Kargeen which was a good place and now it turned into a smoking zone!

Japengo is near my house! :p
When I go there I will have to go there and try it! :D

i went once to Japan

inshallah will go to this resturant

Not a fan of Asian food anyways... but I am glad that finally a dine-in restaurant opened at that place. One dine-in restaurant was needed at Shatti al-Qurum street AKA Love Street.

I don't go to these places to smoke sheesha. But their food is nice (arabic food), the drinks are great, the atmosphere and the card playing of course ...

aaw dont remind me of those days!! was the best ever *sigh*

Nothing will ever, and I say this with all my heart, NOTHING can beat Chinese Garden Restaurant in Al Khuwair in the IceSkating building. NOTHING!

:heart:

I've been to the chinese garden restaurant and I didn't like it that much. I mean, I can compare it to so many other restaurants; nothing outstanding.

i'll go for sushi for sure but after im done wid the projects.

The round table outside looks damn good, doubt they serve alchohol & the spot is good for beach parties

*double post*

Yeaaaah the round table.. I love it! I can't wait till the weather gets nice (next Novembe/December lol), so I can reserve it for an afternoon with my girls :cute:

People actually book it?! xD
That sucks

^ No I think you can just go and sit there if it's not reserved .. I meant, I wanna book it ahead just so we definately GET it :)

sadly i've never heard of it.

We didn't go to that place since Gonu :)....i think :think: yes!

Thanks for sharing, Endure.

i love Japanese food can't wait till i come back seriously

EnW, well I love it. When I call the man goes: I know. You want vegetable fried rice and chilli beef. I mean, how many restaurants predict what the customer wants? Simply amazing.

^that happens to me in chilis :P

^ You've been ordering from them once every month-two months for the last seven years too?!

do they serve the ALFREDO PASTA?

Hehe.. interesting some people go to a Japanese to eat Pasta and ceaser Salad lol

^^ Ya so what,, some Italian restaurants dont have a GOOD pasta as japengo do..

so why not

not a fan of asian food but i'll give it a try once i'm done with the hectic work i have to finish :D

do they serve the ALFREDO PASTA?

I didn't memorize the menu toxy :rolleyes: I've been there once only.

Been there today .. loved the atmosphere and loved the varaity of food .. its good to have more places to go to :)

EW, i know u didnt memorize it LOL!!

am asking if its there or not, if you dont remember its okay lol

Thanks for sharing Endure

I hope they recommend the smart casual dress code & don't allow those hooligans dressed in baggy jeans & colourful vests with chains hanging all over their bodies

I passed by there today, why is the lighting so bright...?

Enough of Asian food in Oman! lol

but if the design is good, i'll force myself to get sushi n wasapi lol :p

Does any 1 by any chance have thier contact number ?

Sounds like a good place. I'll try it out when i'm back in Oman.

mmmmmm I tried it 2day...

My friend & I had 1 starter (Potatoes Wedges) then we had 2 main course (Fish & Chips and Baked Hamour with Mash Potatoes) & 2 7up.......... that all cost around 17 rials :p


I liked the place though n the food was tasty....

interesting


must give it a try

I passed by this morning it looks nice and it has this summery feel to it, sea, sky and sand. (its by the beach too :p)

^^ Ya so what,, some Italian restaurants dont have a GOOD pasta as japengo do..

so why not

Sure why not? :D

something I liked for a change ..

It hurts my eyes lol

Might go with the family this weekend, thanks Endure for sahring :) :)..

I dont know about Oman's Japengo. But I'm ALWAYS at Japengo in Dubai and I love the food and the atmosphere!

I like Japengo since I tried it in Dubai a few years ago but I don't understand the name of the restaurant. It's not a Japanese restaurant although they do have sushi. The menu has sandwiches, burgers and even Lebanese food in addition to international cuisine and south asian food.

I liked the interior decoration, but the stark white interior and the bright tube lighting gave me a bad headache because I'm extremely light sensitive. Almost half the items on the menu were not available. The drink prices are ridiculous with most juices going for over 2 rials. My food was brought to me cold (room temperature). I had to send it back and when they brought it back it was only slightly better. The noodles were bland, needed more spices or chili. But the sushi was alright.

They are still going through initial teething problems I guess. Too early to pass judgment on them. Would be great when the weather gets better later in the year to sit at the outside bar and have some sushi.

I'm fairly confused by the new Japengo. In Dubai, the chain is positioned as a lively, casual sort of place, definitely in the middle price ranges. Here, they seem to be aiming for the top of the market, although several features - especially the operating-room lighting - seem to work against the overall effect.

What it mostly seemed to us, when I and a friend visited, was jaw-droppingly expensive - a light sushi dinner for two (we had to order a la carte, as they don't yet have enough variety for the assorted plate), with one appetizer, two juices, and water ran to:

63 RIALS!!

We've eaten, and well, at the Chedi for less!

^^ this isnt possible

I wish it weren't, TH, but I have the receipt to prove it. We had about as much sushi as we would have had with two assortments (which, I believe, run 13RO each), but ordered as separate items, plus the rest of the meal, plus tax/service, indeed made 63 as the total.

Next time, we're trying the Lebanese - and bringing sunglasses.

When we went we were just two couples and the bill came out to be 61 rials.

:mmhmm: man! this is too much for two! are they more expensive then UAE

^^2 couples.. 2 men and their wives.

After reading the posts... I am not even goin' close to it.
I mean.. first turned out to be not a Japanese resturant!!
Just becuase they got sushi doesn't make it japanese "people".
And I eat sushi everyday here made by japanese and korean resturants.. where a plate of teriyaki chicken sushi ( 8 pieces ) will cost me just 7 - 8 bucks! ( 2 rials lol)

^^2 couples.. 2 men and their wives.

man we used to go there like 4-6 girls doesnt come that much
each pays about 7 rials max

Hhmm :) Will have to try it out.
