I came here for lunch one day last month. Food was fantastic. There were a lot of customers. The restaurant is very small inside and it was very crowded. I felt a little claustrophobic.

Love the place for the typical japanese bites.
Great takoyaki recovered of katsuobushi.😋
Loved also the skewers especially the nasu fried (egg plant)
Tried the jelly fish that day.
And finished with matcha ice cream.
You can't find that in (fake) japanese restaurant.
I strongly recommend the place if you want a taste of Japanese street food.

Busy needs to reserve for inside, but we sat outside. Good service. Really fresh rolls, pork belly is delicious. First time trying jelly fish. Totally recommend that place.

This is the first time that I have a roll called “spicy tuna / spicy salmon” that is actually spicy. I enjoyed them a lot.
The food overall is great, the service is fast and courteous. Is a little bit packed during dinner time. It has parking lot for no extra fee.

Good Sake, fresh ginger, wasabi, seaweed salad was perfect, cuts were mid level but the flavors made up for it. Came here on a Friday night and it was packed

Do make reservation before you come. Walk-in can get you wait in line for long time.
Food is absolutely stunning. I ordered fresh grated wasabi which is totally different from synthetic wasabi. Highly recommend.

A place to have a quality japanese meal.
I came here because a japanese friend recommendation. I asked her about something authentic.
They have tables outside, but, we decided to sit inside. At the begining, I was a little disappointed because decoration is so simple, outdated in my opinion.
We started with a japanese craft beer called Asahi, it was recommend by our friendly waiter and it was very good, with light flavor and very sparkly. After that, I started to enjoy the place.
But, my opinion totally change when we received the food. Everything was with a beautiful presentation and quality.
To eat we had skewers, warm miso soup and a dinner sushi combo called Chirashi A, that was a delicious combination of different sliced raw fish over a perfect cooked rice bed.
Every bite of this food was delicious. Of course I’ll be back to eat more of this delicious meals.

Sashimi cuts are nice and thick!!!
The soups are tasty, not bland like most Japanese places.
Love the ambiance, made us feel like we were in Japan again!
