    We celebrated my boyfriend’s birthday today, we came in at 5pm, there wasn’t a lot of people so the server was able to explain the menu and how-to’s very well. The food came fast, and it was very good. I have the Kyoto Sunrise for drinks, it was very good, it tasted like yogurt drink. I highly recommend the AYCE menu!

    Cool, dining experience. Server was very nice and explained how we needed to eat each dish. Good variety of meats and other foods. If there’s a downside, it’s a bit on the expensive side.

    This is my first visit and I honestly quite liked it. Generally it's good and what I'd expect, but I really don't know that it's any better than any others that are similar. What I can say they could be better at is cleaning their bathrooms. We came for dinner and the place was very quiet when we took our seating. The reality is they had plenty of staff, but nobody looking to tidy the washrooms. The bathrooms are dirty and the garbage can full - nothing wiped down and it's opening. This shows me that detail at this restaurant isn't that important. If they are lax at the most basic things in running a restaurant - it causes me to wonder where else they are overly relaxed. Kitchen? Sure hope not.

    Pretty good food. I love coming here at night for the vibes and the good food. The happy hour prices seem fair and good for the value. Some of the meat we got wasn’t the best quality but I can’t complain :)
