The food is great, and the happy hour prices are almost too good to be true. However, this place needs an extra bartender. Each time we go, it is quite normal that we get our appetizers before our first drink. Quite backwards compared to the norm. It appears that drink orders go into a cue, and we have only ever observed one bartender handling all drink orders. I have even sat at the bar and ordered our drinks directly through the person behind the bar yet even his orders are given to another bar attendant. We waited 20 minutes when ordering directly at the bar and the last time we dined there, we got our main course before any drinks were served. We will definitely go back but I will be insisting that we are served our first drink before I order our food.

The atmosphere is beyond gorgeous. The design is 🤌. The food was very very delicious as well, but found the main plate portion quite small for a sharable.

Food was incredible, the curry udon and kake udon, a couple rolls, and milk buns. We loved everything and can’t wait to go back and try more of the menu! (Side note - We do think it’s worth noting the spoons for the udon are too big and difficult to eat out of, just wanted to give them the courtesy of letting them know! I’m sure we aren’t the only ones that noticed this)
