One of my favorite places for a cozy Monday lunch. The atmosphere is warm & perfect for enjoying a fresh meal away from the rush of the day.
Their signature sushi creations are truly outstanding. I especially love the creativity behind their dishes, & the idea of incorporating foie gras into sushi is something I genuinely appreciate - it brings a unique & elegant touch to the experience.
A beautiful place for anyone looking for great flavors, creativity, & a memorable lunch experience.

The ambiance is cozy & warm. It's a very beautiful restaurant with nice staff.

I used to go there often but the cooking has declined a bit over the years. Still a good restaurant to try.

SASHIMI: 7/10

GYOZA: 7/10
It used to be so tasty. But it was a bit bland

TEMPURA MORIAWASE: 8/10
Veggies & shrimps were good

GYU SHITAKE DON: 7/10
Again, two years ago it was so delicious & flavourful. The sauce was hard to taste & the beef was very stiff, not tender at all.

UNADON: 10/10
Very delicious & flavourful!

KAISEN CHIRASHI: 9/10

A favorite in the area of Concordia & the Museum of Fine Arts. The food is always good, not terribly expensive. A friendly & low-key place.
