    The dry aged porterhouse was one of the best steaks I've had. Everything was great. We had scallops, steak tar tar, bone marrow, octopus, dry aged porterhouse, truffle mashed potatoes, mushrooms, asparagus and the cheesecake for dessert. Our group loved it all. The wine list was good. The service was a 10 out of 10.

    Food and service are fantastic ! We had octopus, lobster bisque, sushi, asparagus and Hida steak. All the food are delicious but my favourite are the sushi, they are so delicious, and the hida steak, it melts in your mouth. We got yummie cheesecake for dessert for free for my birthday. The Mr Teramoto, the manager, is so nice and friendly, too, great service. We really enjoyed our lunch, thank you so much !!
