I have been to Japan several times and I like this concept. I wish there was a bit more variety in prizes! I think I'd be inclined to have spent more money if I saw a plushy or a gashspon that I felt like I "needed" to have. The service was friendly; the tokens were expensive as others had mentioned. We did end up winning a few prizes from the claw machine so that did feel nice that it's not "imposible" to win. I think if they offered some fun for purchase Japanese food or drinks, they could be onto something. I do wish the business owners success in their endeavors, though!

Was a very fun experience!! Very friendly staff and great people working there!! There was a kids and adults enjoying the claw machine!! it is 3$ dollars a token but every game I gave you 3 tries! Unless it was a middle room, which was really cool and a wonderful Japanese’s and anime cute trinket!!

A couple of friends introduced me to this location and overall it's a nice place. It's just like getting a few things, it's not as big as I'd like it to be and there's not as much variety as I feel there should be. A lot of wicked items but it seemed to be a theme. The staff was nice though and the prices are tad much but you should get some enjoyment here. Especially if they're planning on some events like they mentioned.

Finally got a chance to pop in for a bit and got my claw machine fix in! Won seven prizes in the short time I was able to visit, kept four and got a plush card for future excursions. I’ll be back soon! Won more per dollar here than at Round1 the last time I went! Keep in mind tokens are $3, but you get three tries on the claw per token! Very reasonably priced for fully licensed plush, plus you can trade plush in for stamps on your card to save up/trade for bigger prizes at the counter.
