About this restaurant

  • Good for business meals
  • Fancy
  • Charming
El estilo gastronómico de Makoto está basado en la tradición, el cual se revitaliza con toques frescos y originales. La marca proviene de Bal Harbour, en Miami, diseñada en 2011 por el chef Makoto Okuwa, quien fue discípulo de Morimoto. Tras el éxito de sus platillos tradicionales con una gran estética y sabores inesperados, se abrieron restaurantes en Panamá, México y Brasil. El plan de expansión consiste en inaugurar más sucursales en Latinoamércia.
