Amaterasu
Fifty-six stories above Monterrey, with city views that actually justify the price tag and a signature 11-course omakase ('Fly with Us') where the chef explains each nigiri and hands you something you genuinely haven't had before. This is the place you book for anniversaries, not because it's fine dining (though it is) but because the combination of view, food precision, and a server named Roberto who actually cares means you'll remember the specific dinner, not just that you went somewhere nice. Expect 2.5 hours and a bill that stings a little.
Pro tip: Reserve weeks ahead for weekends. The music isn't quite right for the ambiance—this is their one operational blind spot—but it doesn't ruin anything.
The food is well-regarded for its excellent quality, freshness, and exquisite flavors, particularly the sushi and omakase experiences.
