   Excellent food and the recommendations were spot on. 3 starters and a main, all to share, was a brilliant idea. The premium sake was worth the price as it was smooth and tasty

   Great place for Japanese street food. Not enough staff so that impacted the service.

   The food was very good and the drink too. The vibe is very nice and the price is reasonable. I would definitely go back again :)

   Sad to say, nearly every dish lacked flavor. We ordered edamame, gyoza, Saba Tataki, vegetable tempura, Oden Udon, and tonkatsu curry. Edamame: Properly salted, but the discard bowl was too small, piling up into an unappetizing mess that sat there far too long. Gyoza: Decent, but the dipping sauce tasted store-bought, like a generic low-sodium version. Tempura: Flat, oily, and lacking crispiness. The batter fell off the vegetables too easily, with no panko crust or seasoning to make it stand out. The dipping sauce was another flavorless letdown. Saba Tataki: The mackerel lacked the rich oiliness expected of quality saba. It seemed like lower-grade Spanish mackerel, which is leaner and less flavorful. The fish was barely seared, missing the high-temp char essential to this dish, and the ponzu was weak, possibly leaching what little oil the fish had left. Oden Udon: The broth was watery, like an over-diluted low-sodium base. The fried fish cakes were rubbery and processed, and the noodles tasted like they came from a grocery store. My wife gave up halfway through, calling it “just nourishment.” Tonkatsu Curry: After a long wait, I opted to take this to-go. The only dish with any real flavor, but it’s hard to make a curry bland. Service & Atmosphere: The pacing was chaotic. Appetizers arrived all at once, overwhelming the table, while larger dishes took far too long. The restaurant itself was chilly, like they hadn’t turned on the heat. My wife put on a sweater, and I kept my jacket on. Final Thoughts: The décor is fun, but the food and service fall short. The young clientele may not notice the issues, but for those who know good Japanese cuisine, this place disappoints. Even OpenTable let me down by listing it. I won’t be back.

   Très décevant. Nous avons trouvé que c'était cher pour la nourriture qui était très moyenne. Dommage aussi qu'ils fassent le nettoyage avec des produits qui sentent très forts juste à côté des clients qui soupent.
