I have eaten here 3 times now. Once for a work group lunch, & date night & most recently a family birthday & I can sat with absolute certainty that there will be more! It fits all occasions. The staff is not only SUPER friendly, they are very well versed & informed for the food & Sake menu (Which we always needs help with as total amateurs). In all 3 of these occasions, every person sitting has loved their dish. We have tried so many things & never been disappointed. Even if something isn't our preference or wouldn't have again, it was never due to the taste or quality of food. It always gets to the table so fresh & with lovely high end presentation. The drink selection & quality, with or with out alcohol was amazing! The only feedback I would give, which is in part maybe our lack of asking, but we did not realise there was a kids meal! Again, maybe we totally missed it but I could not recall seeing it. But now I know & will go back with the whole family for a try! Lastly, it can get pricing so if you are on a budget you can totally find reasonable dishes but maybe avoid the Tapas & Sake menu & go with the Ramen dishes.
Very disappointing experience. We waited over 50 minutes, & only 1 of our 4 dishes arrived initially & the gyozas were super cold, as if they had been sitting in the kitchen for some time. While the waiter kindly offered complimentary drinks, there was little communication or follow-up regarding our food despite seeing our table empty for a long period. The remaining dishes arrived much later & were not particularly good. Unfortunately, I would not return or recommend this restaurant to friends & family.
For the price per person, I was expecting more. The portions were decently sized. But I didn't see one Asian cook in the kitchen. That should tell you the whole story. Staff was nice enough but the prices for drinks was ridiculous. Not one drink was less than 25$. Overall is was ok but for 60$ per person, I was disappointed.
we were 4 guys, had some drinks, food was great...our waiter was on the ball, knew his stuff right down to the sake we ordered, what more could you ask for.
Not too sure how this place got such good reviews & ratings…
Food : 2/5
- sashimi platter : average quality, some are fresh some not that much
- tataki : poor quality fish
- kimchi fried rice : very very oily & not much kimchi flavour. Big disappointment
- sweet potato croquette : served cold
- yakisoba noodles : very salty
- duck mazemen : taste good
- gochujang fried chicken : taste okay
- baked oysters : pretty good, best one out of all the dishes we had
Service : 2.5/5
Service time was very long, we waited at least 35-40min between our first dishes & the rest of it. It's not like they sorted between appetizers & main…
No soy sauce served with sashimi platter ? First time seeing this… Have to ask for the dipping plates after asking for soy sauce.
We asked for an English version of drinks menu. Waiter said they don't have any & just walked away. No recommendation or translation provided.
Vibe/decor : 4/5
Nice decoration, not too loud, clean washroom. You get a fun moment when ordering the sake bomb.
Overall experience : too pricey for the quality & taste of the food. Service needs improvement. Will not come back.
Great place, the food & drinks were amazing. The service was more then I could have asked for.
I highly recommend it for any special occasion or just for a fun night out
