October 2025: ordered from the sushi side this time. Ordered 5 different Maki & also the salmon pizza & eel oshizushi. All of it was enjoyable.
March 2025: Had the tonkotsu ramen which was tasty but had less meat & egg than other places I find. Takoyaki was alright, but there was too much of a mayo sauce on it that threw it off. Tako wasabi was good but is a small portion considering how big it looks in the picture. Teriyaki tofu was as it should be.

Mon poké au saumon manquait de saveur & avait très peu d'ingrédients. Mon copain a commandé un poké au saumon frit & c'était du saumon sec trop cuit, non frit. Nous avons même eu droit à de la salade iceberg pour couronner le tout ! Nous avons regretté notre choix de restaurant, le pire où j'ai mangé dans Griffintown à l'heure actuelle.
Really good casual Asian restaurant. The vibe is relaxed & the service was quick & friendly. The food was tasty, with generous portions & well-balanced flavors. I had the ramen & a box- both were great, though the ramen broth could've had a bit more depth. Still, everything felt fresh & well-made. It's a solid spot if you're looking for something flavorful, unpretentious, & reasonably priced. I'd definitely come back.
The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because one time I ordered over the phone, & when I went to pick up the food, it wasn't what I had ordered. I had to wait another 20 minutes on the spot while they remade it. They fixed it in the end, but the experience was a bit frustrating.
