The chicken sandwich at lunch is great but it takes a while & the phone number doesn't work so you can't call ahead.

the food was honestly just fine, it wasn't outstanding by any means but wasn't bad either, although i did find the pork to be quite dry. we came on a weekday lunch & were very surprised to find ourselves alone there, there was only one staff member & he didn't look too pleased to be there, interactions were very brief & felt tense. since the restaurant is located on a somewhat remote street, we felt quite awkward to be the only ones there with a guy that didn't seem happy at all. overall, it wasn't bad, the service could've been better, i personally don't think i'd return.

On a commandé sur un service en ligne & on a trouvé ca très bon, On a simplement pris 2x Poulet curry & 1x Karaage La portion était un peu petite, donc on était content d'avoir pris le karaage en plus, mais sinon en terme de gout c'était excellent. On a aussi pris des beignets & on ne s'attendait certainement pas a ça (positivement). C'était très simple & délicieux sans être lourd ou trop sucré. Parfait.

The menu was simple so we chose based on uber eats photos & it was delicious. The place has only 8 seatings so no crowds.

Love the chicken katsu. So delicious! Not pricey at all. Regular small place. No vibe. Support local restaurants! It's the kind of place you go to after school or work to eat.

Great food, amazing wings. A bit of a bummer that the door has not protection so it's freezing inside when it is outside. I don't enjoy eating with a jacket on, but the food was great.
