locally known as rodizio japonês, or japanese rodizio, this type of rodizio has grown in fame in the last couple of years, particularly in the zona sul area - typically offering every type of sushi, including nigiri, sashimi, temaki, uramaki, and maki, as well as some japanese dishes such as missoshiro soup or yakisobbas.

an exceptional choice for sushi lovers and veggie-eaters is lapamaki, a japanese chain that offers normal sushi rodizios as well as vegamaki, which is the first japanese rodizio with items suiting a vegan/vegetarian diet including desserts - lapamaki also functions a la carte and by a kilo buffet.
