Where to look if this is not the right fit
If the group wants another Japanese option, start with Yoka Tomo or ZEN Japanese Restaurant. Both sit in the same broad Japanese category and make sense when the plan is less about takeaway flexibility and more about a full restaurant comparison.
For a broader Japanese cross-shop, ITO and Appare are useful alternatives in the €€ tier. Pick them when a more intentional dinner is the goal; keep Samurai Eindhoven for casual groups, ramen-led orders, easier logistics.
