Loved this cozy izakaya spot! The clam sake was super comforting — light, fragrant, and perfectly balanced with the natural sweetness of the clams. The sushi was fresh and well-crafted, simple but done right. Big surprise was the carbonara pasta — rich, creamy, and full of flavor without being too heavy. You can tell they really care about quality and technique. Chill atmosphere, great food, and definitely a place I’d come back to for a relaxed night out.

Heard lots of great things about the restaurant here and have been meaning to try it for a long time. Finally got the chance to and while the service was good and the atmosphere wasn’t bad, the food was just okay. The menu is pretty average with lots of staples in Japanese restaurants but nothing that really made it stand out. The food didn’t blow me away or anything but I wouldn’t say it was bad either. I can appreciate that they have lots items at different price points so you definitely get to have great options in how you want to dine! Overall, the fish felt fresh and I would say it’s a reliable meal that you probably wouldn’t be upset over but nothing too special.

I went there for dinner last night, our server Chris was really nice and accommodating, he gave us some great tips, and made sure we had everything we needed. The food is pretty good, I loved their curated beef, and the Edamame to die for. Highly recommended, will be there again for sure.

What I love about dining here is that the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. Most of them are men, with one woman, but they were all very accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed. The moment we entered the restaurant, they greeted us with warm smiles, which instantly made us feel comfortable and welcomed. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, perfect for a casual meal or even a date night. The service was quick, and they constantly checked on us without being intrusive. As for the food, my partner absolutely loved the Kimchi Udon the flavor was rich and perfectly balanced. I personally enjoyed the salmon fried rice was cooked to perfection. Everything tasted fresh and authentic, making the whole experience worth it. We’ll definitely come back again!
