We had an amazing Sunday lunch - we had the Sono tasting course - with the black cod and wagyu main course as our selection. Miu was fantastic and very friendly! Will be back soon.

Dined here around 5 times and will always go back. Oyster stock is pretty low, normally we buy the rest of the oysters they have, but always worth it! The lime oysters and raspberry oysters are amazing. The A5 wagyu literally melts in your mouth however very small serving. The sauces that come with it are good too. Will also always recommend the sashimi platter. Atmosphere is very refreshing, love the open kitchen design as well. The views are also great, definitely a nice date spot.

I’ve been to this restaurant twice, and I really appreciate the service and the overall atmosphere. I usually come here for the banquet. To be honest, for me, the banquet set is quite expensive compared to the amount of food served 😅 The funniest thing I noticed was that the potato chips in the set were listed as part of the mains instead of the entrees. Overall, my family had to order extra dishes separately, which was the only reason we ended up feeling full 🙄 If we had only ordered the banquet, I don’t think it would have been enough. In summary, since this is a high-end restaurant, the prices are on the higher side. That said, the food is fresh and tasty.

Excellent Japanese dining experience by the river, with standout dishes — the sashimi was fresh and delicate, the crab chawanmushi was silky and flavorful, and the A5 wagyu beef simply outstanding. The only miss was the tataki, which was unfortunately a bit over cooked rather than lightly seared.. The tables with the riverview were Japanese seating and they had private dining cabin as well. Overall, a memorable meal, excellent service with a small letdown.

Great dinner with Japanese hotpot ❤️ The food was amazing and the service is top-notch! We ordered their crab chawanmushi which was very silky and flavourful. Then, we got the Sukiyaki with their A5 wagyu which definitely worth the price, especially it was a good portion and balance between meat & veggie. Good selections of drinks too! A little suggestion would be, Maybe customers can have a bigger table if they intend to have hotpot (like an option to choose that during reservation).
