We chose Morimoto at the Mondrian Doha to celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. We set the tone for the evening with a relaxing ESPA wellness massage at the hotel beforehand, which made the transition into dinner feel seamless and indulgent.
We opted for the Sushi & Steak Night, featuring a premium sushi selection alongside Wagyu beef steak and tiger prawns, and the food was truly indescribable. The sushi platter, highlighting tuna, eel, and octopus, was extraordinary, each piece showcasing impeccable freshness and balance. The Wagyu steak was cooked perfectly to our exact preference, rich and tender in every bite. Dessert was equally delectable and beautifully presented.
What elevated the entire evening even further was our waitress, Soniya. She was incredibly attentive, warm, and highly professional, making us feel genuinely cared for throughout the night. In fact, all the staff managed by Filip were equally polite, and the service overall was impeccable.
The restaurant itself is stunning, with a beautifully designed interior, perfect lighting, and a wonderful atmosphere. The DJ played an impressive Afro House set that subtly enhanced the ambience. Her mixing skills felt a bit underappreciated, as many guests didn’t seem to notice. Still, the music choice added a refined, modern energy to the space without overpowering the dining experience.
We cannot wait to return, especially to try the ramen next. As a couple who hunts for exquisite ramen around the world, Morimoto is now firmly on our list of must-return destinations in Doha.
Highly recommended.
