MR Xi Asian Bistro in Centrum

I eat there sometimes, the food is very good. It's a shame they don't offer delivery anymore, though. I used to order from them often. Very convenient for work and one of the better ones in the area. They also have healthier options, and they're fast. They're still listed on Thuisbezorgd or on their website, but then you only get a takeaway option. Such a shame.

Easy to use app for ordering food/drinks. The food was great. Drinks a bit expensive. Atmosphere was okay, we were here at a busy time Sunday 18:00. Fast and kind service.

Delicious, just to eat well, no rush

Delicious food, even for those who aren't so keen on sushi. Ordering by phone works well. And the food comes out of the kitchen at a good pace. A very cozy restaurant.

After making a reservation at 5:00 PM, we still had to wait 5-10 minutes for our table. The menu looked fine, but many dishes had a €1 surcharge, even for regular sushi and dishes from the meat menu. I found this quite odd. I ordered a sashimi mix: salmon and tuna combined with what I call "Xi" beef tataki, which is strange in itself, but it was just a cold steak in three thick slices with little flavor, which resulted in a €8.50 surcharge. Then I ordered the lamb rack, another €1 surcharge, but it was a lamb chop with a lot of fat and a bad taste. For dessert, you can choose from macarons, but skip those; they tasted chemically and spoiled, and maybe they were. Both my girlfriend and I needed to use the restroom during the night. This is obviously not good and immediately ensures we'll never come here again. All in all, a bad experience 👎

10/10, everything always tastes delicious! Wonderfully fresh! Great staff!

Very good restaurant! Delicious food, also gluten-free, almost everything is possible. Very helpful.

Ordered delicious sushi! Not full stars because we ordered a veggie box for someone who eats vegetarian. The box also contained four pieces of carpaccio sushi, nestled among the veggie carpaccio, not separated. That should be taken into account when ordering a veggie box...

First time here. Very good. If they also start serving Capi Soda Shabu Shabu, I'll always go here from now on!

The tastiest sushi in Zoetermeer.

Beautiful restaurant with delicious sushi! It was very busy, so despite having a reservation, we still had to wait for a table. Mr Xi has a very extensive menu with nice items I haven't seen at other sushi restaurants, like the sakura roll. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the other dishes (anything that wasn't sushi). There's also a wide selection of desserts, which at other restaurants is often limited to ice cream, fried plantains, sesame balls, and fruit. I really enjoyed the crème brûlée, but the portion was a bit too small. The matcha cheesecake was tasty, but it had almost no matcha flavor. All in all, we had a delicious meal and we definitely recommend Mr Xi again! 🍣 3.5/5

Very bad food. Nothing good to say about it. There are so many better sushi restaurants in the area.

The worst diner I've ever been to. I wouldn't call it a restaurant. Overpriced food that never arrives, and poor service. It's cramped and very noisy.

Sometimes a plate arrived where the food was half cold... Everything else was very good.

Very tasty food, friendly service. Definitely recommended.

I always come here with great pleasure and it never disappoints

The food was absolutely delicious. Beautiful restaurant, friendly staff. My parents had never had sushi before, and it took them some getting used to it, but afterward, my mom said she'd never been so full!😆

A neatly decorated restaurant with very friendly staff and delicious food. It can be a bit of a "feeding shack" though, due to the crowds and the loud noise.

Fast, friendly staff. Delicious food.

Very good food and nicely decorated shop, also excellent service

Always delicious takeaway sushi.

It was ok, not the best tbh.. had better than this actually

Generous portions and beautifully presented. The service is very friendly. No gimmicks. It's very enjoyable with groups, though. Ordering via your mobile phone is a bit tricky if you're not handy with it.

Coco chicken was rancid! Too expensive as no drink was inclusive. At least offer 1 drink for such 40€/Per.

As always, the food was delicious

The food was delicious and served quickly. The staff was very friendly and attentive to the children in the group, making jokes as well. We'll definitely be back.

It was very tasty and enjoyable. The supervisor with glasses was very friendly and kind.

Ordering via your phone's barcode isn't working well...you keep getting disconnected and it's not very convenient. This makes ordering your food take longer. It was very crowded, and the staff had little time to explain things. The food was quite greasy and had too much sauce/mayo on it. Not worth the price.

An all you can eat with sushi and more Asian Japanese food! Bite sizes so you can have enough 😁😁

I've eaten at Mr Xi several times, either for takeout or delivery. Friendly staff and good food.

Was having ayce reservation here (all you can eat). Variety of menu. Different type of sushi available (nigiri, maki, roll, etc). Just sad on the sashimi section: it cost 4eur more per portion… There are some menu that cost 1-3eur more as well. Love the sakura roll, umami fish with sweet and fresh sakura sprinkles. Their tempura is also coated well, might be storebought but it works. Sad about the meat, as it is not marinated and just cooked on wok with sauces. Overall of 4/5: there’s big potential here. Dessert option: nice and light. Hope they have fruit sorbet or punch in the future. One more thing: iced ocha! Hope they have one soon, it is the crucial part of ayce culture (at least in asia)!

Always delicious food, you're served quickly, and the food is delivered to your table promptly. Best sushi restaurant in Zoetermeer.

By far the best sushi restaurant in this price range. We love coming here! Delicious mocktails, delicious food, and fast service. A beautiful place with lots of selection and it never disappoints! We went again today🤤

Delicious food, always fast service, and the restaurant is beautiful. I think it's one of the nicest places to eat in Zoetermeer.

It's very stuffy inside, with tables very close together. The food was mediocre, nothing special. The staff was friendly, except for the manager/supervisor. We were there on a weekday, and it wasn't full. Something went wrong with the payment; I had already paid for the food. Normally, you make a reservation through the online store, but this wasn't working. So, I booked through their own website, stating that I had already paid through a different website and asking if this was okay. They also provided a phone number if this wasn't possible. When I went to pay, they called the manager, who was very unfriendly, demeaning, and arrogant. I wasn't allowed to make a reservation through their own website and had to pay anyway because we apparently arrived 30 minutes earlier than the official timeframe with our vouchers. He didn't mention anything about my reservation comment; this could easily have been avoided. After a genuine 10-minute discussion, and us refusing to pay double, he finally approved it. This restaurant left a very bad taste in my mouth.

Quite pricey for the quality you get.

It's all you can eat concept, you have time slot of 2 hours. The sushi quality is average, with too much mayo on top. I was told later there’s an option to order sushi without sauce. You order via your telephone and can order up to 3 portions per round per person. Nigiri comes as only one piece per portion. The fish in the sushi was warm, rather than cold or chilled. The service is very friendly and quick, and the place itself is nice.

Enjoyed dinner at MR Xi today. We normally go to either Shabu or Tuniku and I can now rate them together. The atmosphere at Xi is definitely better and during summer time it is nice to sit outside, which none of the others have. Regarding the sushi I think Yuniku is the best of all three. Regarding the teppanyaki style food we noticed that at the center of the plate the food was warm, the sides already cold. Definitely a point of improvement compared to the others. Regarding price I think it is fair, I personally find each time I overeat and in fact what I do is order with the family what we like. Last time for 5 at Yuniku for 105 euro and everyone was stuffed. Much better deal and you can do the same here too. Then again you are eating at home and not out... long story short a good place to go to.

We had a wonderful meal. And as an update after a visit on August 8, 2025: We had another wonderful meal. 🍣🦪🍤

The food was delicious and the service was excellent and friendly.

The food is tasty, maybe a bit too much sauce on the sushi, but personally I have no problem with that.

First time eating at MR Xi. Large space, beautifully and atmospherically decorated. The corners and partitions prevent it from being one big, echoing room. You can sit quite intimately. It is noisy, though. Large open kitchen and a large bar at the back of the restaurant. You can place orders per table using a QR code on your mobile phone. A tablet would be much more convenient. You can pass the tablet around and everyone fills in their own dish(es). Currently, one person is entering everything for the entire table on their mobile phone. The five of us noticed that you're constantly busy with numbers, the dishes, and checking if everything is there, etc. The images on the app are too small, and having just one menu is awkward. (We requested a separate menu later.) The app frequently crashes, requiring you to rescan the QR code. Orders weren't always received correctly; we waited about half an hour for one round. In another round, we only received 3 of the 15 dishes. When we asked about this, the staff corrected it, entered it manually, and checked it for accuracy. It makes for a messy, disruptive way to enjoy a meal together. The food/dishes (sushi and various hot dishes) are all very tasty, well-prepared, and neatly served. One drawback: it's very salty. All in all, it's perfectly manageable for two people, and you still have a good overview. I don't think it's ideal for larger groups.

Sushi is delicious, lately there's been too much mayo, but you can remove that yourself. The service is excellent and always with a smile.

Nice all you can eat restaurant at the city center of Zoetermeer.

Great food in a nice atmosphere, great service

Overal the food was really good and we did not have to wait very long. But Some staff members were yelling jokes to each other, while walking next to our table. With some words you do not want your 2yo to learn yet.

Ive been here a couple of times. The food is always good and the atmosphere is nice. My last visit wasnt as good as the other, long wait time for drinks, staff that wasnt attentive to our table and some food items that where not up to par. But that isnt usually the case. Would still recommend!

Following previous good experiences, we returned to MR XI. Although we had a nice meal and the evening started off well, we unfortunately went home disappointed. We had made a reservation and paid for two hours of All you can eat at 8:15 PM. You enter, sit down and order something to drink, so that you can start the first round at 8:30 PM. So at 9:30 PM we had just been eating for a little over an hour when we were told that the kitchen was closing. We could still quickly order a dessert as the last round.. This felt rushed and unpleasant and I also indicated this to the serving staff. Unfortunately, they did not come up with a solution other than “you can still quickly order something”. There was no point in ordering more because we had already ordered a dessert as requested. When making a reservation at 20:15, we were not informed that the kitchen would close at 21:30, while we left at 22:00. In addition, MR XI sells 2 hours of All you can eat for the full price, while we only had an hour to order food. Of course, I immediately expressed my disappointment to the staff, who then did nothing about it and presented us with the full bill. Outrageous. So pay attention! do not book this restaurant after 19:30! You understand that we left your restaurant disappointed this evening. No more MR XI for us!

+ varied menu; not just sushi + it doesn't take long for the food to arrive - it is very warm in the restaurant - everything is put on the table (sometimes quite roughly) without mentioning what is what - the food is very salty - quality of the dishes varies all in all not a place to have a nice dinner.

I would recommend making a reservation because it is full here almost every day... and that makes sense because the quality of the food here is sublime 🤩

"This is a place where we as a family always like to come. We are very satisfied every time. The food is always served quickly, the staff is professional, hardworking, friendly and always willing to help. You feel at ease here in a warm and cozy atmosphere, but at the same time in a neat and luxurious environment. We hope it will always stay like this here. 🙏"

Nice food and all but the dessert is very limited :(

Went outside to sit on the terrace. Staff really friendly atmosphere great. Drinks were served there was a black hair in my glass. I asked for a new glass and food remains from the previous one were on it, too bad and actually we were already done with it. All hot dishes arrived cold outside. We paid 95€ and regret not getting up earlier…

I visited this sushi place recently, and while the atmosphere was pleasant and the staff friendly, the food left much to be desired. To begin with, the teriyaki sauce tasted like little more than salty soy sauce—completely lacking the balance of sweetness and depth that teriyaki should have. The fried items were overwhelmingly greasy and heavy, making them difficult to enjoy. As for the desserts, they were extremely watery and lacked any real flavor or texture—especially disappointing given that they contained milk, which should provide richness, not thinness. But the biggest culinary offense? They used sriracha sauce on the sushi. Sriracha. On sushi. That’s not creativity, that’s just a complete misunderstanding of flavor pairing. It overwhelmed the delicate ingredients and turned each bite into a confusing, spicy mess. Overall, I found the food to be poorly executed and, frankly, unpleasant. Despite the nice setting and kind service, I won’t be returning.

Wij komen hier regelmatig en het is altijd heerlijk. Veel sushirestaurants gehad maar deze blijft favoriet! Ook aardig personeel

Super tasty and nice restaurant, great service

Delicious food, great sushi, fantastic salmon tartare.

We like coming here, we love the shusi and there is plenty on the menu! The ladies are also super friendly and the food is always on the table quickly. Great price too.

bediening asociaal, managers al helemaal. We hadden biertjes besteld liet een serveerster het vallen bij de bar, werd toch geserveerd aan ons. Had er toen een opmerking van gemaakt maar werd compleet genegeerd.

Extensive menu and fast food service. Drinks took a little longer. Easy parking in P9, less than a 5-minute walk from the restaurant

Another delicious meal @ Mr Xi! What delicious food they have there.... On to the next x👍🏻 Update: I just ate delicious Sushi 🍣 again, as always And again, or still, a delicious meal 🍣

Never again. There is no flavor whatsoever and the wine has been diluted with water. And that for almost € 40.00 per person, so I will never come here again. A waste of money.

De wijn wordt aangemaakt met water!!!!! Ik had zoete witte wijn die smaakte naar water. Dit gemeld en ik kreeg een nieuw glas wijn. Deze smaakte even slecht en weer naar water. De greintje zoetigheid te bekennen. Schandalig dat je daarop wilt verdienen. Zal nooit meer wijn daar bestellen!!

Nice service and delicious sushi

Very nice restaurant! Very tasty meal! Highly recommended. Small disadvantage when it is very busy you are sometimes forgotten. Unfortunately, this has already happened to us twice.

Top restaurant. Too bad you have to eat within 2 hours. It was certainly delicious food and a wide choice!

The food was delicious. Friendly staff. Fast operation. Super tent.😃

Super sushi, I can't say anything else. The hot dishes, on the other hand, are less tasty. But I find that at every sushi restaurant. Meat often a bit rubbery. I will definitely come back for the delicious sushi.

Food was fine. Unfortunately, the entire restaurant was infested with a frying smell. The extractor may have been broken or the frying oil needed to be replaced. The result was that everything including the coats had to be washed.

A wide variety of delicious dishes from various Asian cuisines, nice and smooth service.

Delicious, fresh, and super fast service!! RECOMMENDED!!!

Ate here for the first time and saw many variations between sushi and Chinese dishes. Nice modesty of sushi sizes so that you could taste more other dishes. QR scan code and ordering food via your smartphone went smoothly and ordered dishes were served at a nice pace. Prices of drinks are affordable. I saw verdejo bottle for 20 euros. Soft drinks 3.20, bottle of water 0.75l for 8.50 a bit on the expensive side. Cocktails 13.50 minimum. The two of us paid 83 euros. I think that is a reasonable price. Will happily come again with other friends. 1thing. The garage below closes at 9:00 PM! We got outside around 9:20pm and my car was locked in the garage with lights off and no access. Fortunately, I was able to zoom in with my smartphone camera to find the telephone number for malfunctions or emergencies outside closing hours. Received friendly help and was able to drive out again within 2 minutes. Next time we'll go to the garage a little further away. If you leave before 9:00 PM, this garage is certainly suitable because the first hour of parking is free. Then €1.50 per 20 minutes.

Normally always good food, but restaurant is going downhill, chicken satay not cooked and there was a hair in the food, well what more can I say.

Food is good. Atmosphere of the location is nice. Service a lot less. The staff doesn't look at you so you can't ask anything. When they bring you food it is with an uninvited look (as if they don't want to be there), but they work quickly so still 3 stars.

We visited this restaurant to celebrate our daughter's birthday, who loves sushi. I made a reservation and paid 87.85 euros in advance for food and 33.05 euros for drinks, wine and juice for three people. Then we ordered a beer, a bottle of Fanta 0.3 and a coke for 20 euros. The first plate of sushi was served half an hour after ordering via barcode, and 45 minutes later another small plate of shrimps. Although you can place an order via the internet every 10 minutes using a barcode. The Dutch people were sitting nearby, they were served faster. I don't speak Dutch because I am Ukrainian and have not yet learned the language. But my brother speaks Dutch well. When we asked the manager and the waiters why it took so long for our order to be brought, they explained that it had taken a long time to prepare our food. That is why they extended our stay in the establishment. We explained that we didn't have much time, two hours was enough to eat and leave. I felt like I was begging them to bring me sushi, even though I had paid enough for it. I felt completely discriminated against. I don’t think rice and fried fish, rolled up and covered in sauce, or those 100 grams of shrimp on a plate cost a fortune. They could have served three portions of sushi per person at once, then we would have left immediately. Finally, after three hours, two more plates of sushi were brought. We ate half of them, because we had drunk enough water beforehand. We sat there for 140 euros in a cramped, very noisy space. There is an incredibly loud noise, like bees buzzing in a beehive. It is so cramped, the tables are so close together, that the waitress, while clearing the table next to her, held the tray above my head and threw the leftover food at me. Everyone saw it. This is the worst restaurant I have ever been to in my life. For the same money, you can have sushi delivered to your home better. The sushi will then be delivered within 20-30 minutes, still warm and enough for three people to eat at home in a clean, quiet, calm and comfortable environment, without nerves, stress or a spoiled mood.

Sushi is tasty and well portioned. With other dishes such as Teppanyaki mussels, for example, I like to see a garlic/parsley molasses on them, instead of dry-fried on the plate. Teppanyaki shrimp were great Lots of choice and side dishes, including sweets and fruit For some dishes on the menu you pay an extra €1 The staff is also quick, because of the crowds you don't expect them to chat with you in a friendly manner for minutes.

Delicious food, highly recommended

I went earlier in December and found a hair in my food twice, but after that I couldn't eat anything and vowed never to come again. Went again last Sunday with my boyfriend and his mother and it was horrible. Waited almost 45 minutes for drinks and a few things did not arrive. The food was mediocre but the desserts were tasty, too bad there were only 3 per person.

In december eerder gegaan had toen 2 keer een haartje gevonden in mijn eten, kreeg daarna echt niks meer naar binnen en had gezworen nooit meer te komen. Afgelopen zondag weer met mijn vriend en zijn moeder geweest en het was vreselijk. Bijna 3 kwartier gewacht op drankjes en een paar dingen niet aangekomen. Het eten was matig maar de desserts waren wel lekker, jammer dat die dan maar 3 per persoon zijn.

Als iemand die hier heeft gegeten en kort heeft gewerkt, zou ik het zwaar aanraden om een ​​andere plek te zoeken om sushi te eten. Ten eerste zijn de managers enorm asociaal, arrogant en respectloos tegen wat bedieners (niet allemaal, een hoop worden ook voorgetrokken). Je mag je bij de bediening onderling niet overleggen wat je verdient. Ook is het heel belangrijk om te weten dat de fooi alleen naar de managers gaat, niks ervan gaat naar de bediening. Bedieners mogen dat ook absoluut niet aangeven om te voorkomen dat gasten dan anders geen fooi geven. Ook is het een paar keer voorgekomen dat ik of een andere bediener perongeluk een bestelling laat vallen en dat dat er gewoon weer wordt opgelegd en naar de tafel gestuurd wordt. Toen ik daar gingen eten was het ook niet te doen. Een hele ronde aan eten is nooit aangekomen (wat niet zo erg is het eten daar is echt niet speciaal en de helft hebben we zelfs gewoon teruggestuurd) en ik had recht op korting maar hebben we niet gekregen. Toen ik er naar vroeg hebben ze er niks mee gedaan en kregen we gewoon wat gore blikken onderweg naar buiten. Ook is het heel benauwd in het restaurant en zitten die tafels zo dichtbij elkaar dat je er gewoon overprikkeld van raakt

en zou ik oppassen als je met een baby in een kinderwagen komt want de managers gaan er op af om je kind te treiteren terwijl je gewoon rustig wilt eten.

As someone who has eaten here and worked briefly, I would heavily recommend finding another place to eat sushi. First of all, the managers are extremely antisocial, arrogant and disrespectful to some servers (not all, a lot of them are also favored). You are not allowed to discuss with each other what you earn when serving. It is also very important to know that the tip only goes to the managers, none of it goes to the wait staff. Servers are absolutely not allowed to indicate this to prevent guests from otherwise not leaving a tip. Also, there have been a few times where I or another server has accidentally dropped an order and it has simply been put back on and sent to the table. When I went to eat there it was also impossible. A whole round of food never arrived (which isn't that bad, the food there really isn't special and we even just sent half of it back) and I was entitled to a discount but we didn't get it. When I asked about it, they didn't do anything with it and we just got some nasty looks on the way out. It is also very stuffy in the restaurant and the tables are so close to each other that you simply become overstimulated. I would be careful if you come with a baby in a stroller because the managers will harass your child while you just want to eat in peace.

Delicious food according to the all you can eat system, with rounds! There are some very tasty things in there...it can be very busy.

Had a last minute meal here yesterday. It was all very tasty and the atmosphere and staff were good! The speed of the orders was also TOP, even though the place was quite full. If we are in the area we will definitely come back!

Delicious food, but you no longer know what is what. When you are with a lot of people it is difficult. But great tent

Food was delicious, service was great! Fast, kind and clean. We were happy, treated my partner for his birthday here.

Unfortunately, the all-you-can-eat principle does not apply to the desserts, which are not mentioned anywhere on the menu. We asked the waiter, who indicated that he thinks three desserts (including a slice of bacon biscuit that flies off your plate when you sneeze) are enough. Long story short: you can order unlimited expensive dishes, but if your children (for whom you pay relatively high prices) still want a scoop of ice cream, that is not possible. We usually tip 10% on our restaurant spend, but we didn't do that this time and we won't do that again in the future if we ever return. We won't be coming back here for a while, even though we used to come here regularly.

Everything is bad and the food is not fresh, the employees are rude , I don’t recommend at all

Deliciously fresh sushi every time.

Being able to eat well. Staff avoid any contact and are very rude. There is also a man walking around who I think is the manager as he doesn't do anything and is very rude. When we entered he tried to ignore us completely even though he had seen us anyway and after taking a seat and I didn't understand him he rolled his eyes and reacted very irritated... ridiculous.

Delicious food and affordable via social Deal.

The food was so bad. The shrimp were raw, the yakitori sticks smelled strange. The sushi still tasted good, but after eating it was quite a stomach ache. Never go back here again...

Really delicious food, very good atmosphere and the dishes are served very nicely. The dishes taste very fresh and are made with love! Highly recommended. We enjoyed it and recommend Mr. Definitely recommend Xi Asian Bistro! Update January 2025: not the way it used to be. It really has become a food shack, everything happens quickly and the food is no longer the quality that the restaurant once had. Shame!

Nice tent for a dinner, nicely decorated, not too noisy and the food is excellent. The chairs/benches are also of good quality, so you will not have any problems with your back while sitting. Management is very nice and provides fast service. The food/drinks are easy to order with your mobile phone. And in the parking garage less than 100 meters away you can park for FREE for the first 2 hours, so that's great.

Tasty sushi with a very wide choice. In addition to sushi, they also have all kinds of tasty other dishes, including meat, fish and vegetarian. The location is also spacious and it is possible to dine with larger groups. Reservations are recommended. Make sure you have a telephone with an internet connection, otherwise you cannot order. They are sometimes a bit slower in bringing drinks.

Good food and an attractive restaurant

Truly the best sushi experience ever as a date, we were one of the first to arrive and received our food and drinks straight away and were allowed to sit anywhere! It came in packs of 4 pieces and you have unlimited rounds. Lots of choice and choice of desserts

Oprecht fantastisch Veel, warm, gezellig, vers! Wij hebben in iedergeval al de volgende date staan bij deze keten !!!!

Food is fine. It's a pity that more and more people have to pay extra for certain dishes at lunch and/or dinner. Service generally fine. Friendly and polite, except for a few people who come to the table with an angry appearance while chewing gum. Cozy atmosphere.

Beautiful restaurant and super fast and good service!! Recommended.

Had a social deal voucher, ordered the same day, but the gentleman did not want to accept it because it had not been ordered 24 hours in advance. I got quite angry and all he could say is rules are rules I will NEVER go there again, and hope that a lot of people won't go there again
