Great food quality, even better for the price of it all! The sashimi taste so great, & even better with the red fish eggs around it. Also a perfect place for scallop lovers. The atmosphere & decor of the restaurant really adds a lot to the experience too. There were so many things on the menu that looked so delectable that I will definitely be coming back! We had a soba & scallop noodles, rainbow pokebol, gyu miso soup & soba noodles & a barachirashi bowl. All recommended!

I haven't been to the restaurant but I only ever order from Yen! The quality is always the best in my opinion, always fresh, maybe a little pricey but worth it.
