This is a Japanese restaurant with a French-style fusion influence. We love the way they make their sauces—they really make the dishes special. Everything was amazing. We only had a light lunch here, but we liked everything we ordered. The food quality is very good. We ordered two types of dumplings and the bison tartare.

An izakaya that serves really exceptional food. The sauces were a standout on every dish, so flavourful!

The pork belly fried rice is amazing: meat just melts in my mouth, rice is flavoured, they also have peas and celery in it to against the greasy, so every bite is refreshing and delicious. Karrage is very tender, and special mayonnaise. Takoyaki tastes amazing, unlike regular takoyaki, it seems have mashed potatoes or cheese inside, the outside is very crispy. The sauce at bottom was tasty and perfect combination with their handmade takiyaki.

Absolutely delicious food - we got the braised beef dumplings, lobster risotto and takoyaki, followed by the rhubarb baba for dessert. Absolutely superb flavour profiles. Service was a bit slow though, servers weren’t attentive and atmosphere was mediocre. Would definitely come back for thr food though!

The food was great, service was great but music was too loud, could barely talk to my wife sitting in front of me. For 2 people we ordered 6 dishes to share. The plates are like "Tapas" and they are small. The overall price is ok considering the quality of the food. We added dessert and we were full. The Calamari is one of the best Calamari I have eaten in my life.
