Small place but tasty food. The service was good. Our server was helpful in choosing the best food with our preferences. We both enjoyed our meals. Decent portions, not too big or small, just right. Nice meal, a little on the basic side flavor wise.

This place is really good. The food tastes amazing, the portions are generous, & the pricing is honestly unbeatable. The restaurant is small so there aren't many tables, but the staff is quick & great at their job which makes the wait time very reasonable. The space does feel a bit claustrophobic with how small it is, but again the staff does make up for this issue. I will be going back!

Nice cozy fusion Asian restaurant. You can find quite a variety: tom yum soup, miso soup, popcorn chicken, gyoza, okonomiyaki, gyudon, tonkatsu, etc. We opted for the gyudon & tonkatsu. It was excellent. Service is good & prices are very reasonable.

When craving Japanese Don & Tonkatsu, we have decided to give this place a try, we were not disappointed!
The okonomiyaki was tasteful, both Yaki Don & Tonkatsu were absolutely delicious 🤤

Service was friendly with a smile 😊🙏

Echoing others that the sitting arrangement is very tight but that didn't bother us. We can squish in comfortably.
