Deco intérieur très cute,
Présentation des plats ok
Mais déçu dans l'ensemble de l'expérience culinaire. La pieuvre est trop caoutchouteuse & les anguilles n'avait que le goût du laqué dommage pour nous.
Service ok

This Izakaya style restaurant has good atmosphere with lively mood. We stopped by to have a dinner, they served tapas style, small dishes. Compared to the price tag, I would say it was a bit overpriced & the quality of the food was just meh.

my favourite was the watermelon salad. I wish the kaisen don were prepared in a way that separated each variety of fish so they could be enjoyed separately. the Kailan is served cold which is a little weird. the fried tofu was great & you can tell that they change their cooking oil daily.

Great izakaya in downtown montreal, most of the dishes are fairly prices. Super cozy atmosphere with a nice covered terrace that is warmed up when it's colder outside.
