I went for lunch. It's good value and the Kawa skewers are nice and crispy. It's not grilled with charcoal but I don't expect that for this price. The fries were a bit soggy, burger bun a bit burnt. Ambience is cute, service was friendly. Will be back for more skewers!
Really very good eating experience !! The service is very good I really love the atmosphere here – it’s filled with so many childhood cartoon elements that it feels like stepping right into my memories . The vibe is super authentic, just like a real Japanese izakaya. Perfect for hanging out with friends or enjoying a drink on your own.
An incredible experience! This is very different than standard Japanese restaurants. It is almost a Japanese Dim-sum. Seafood and pork are very well represented. Fish eggs in many delicious ways. Whelks are memorable. The service is very friendly and fast, the place is beautiful and spotless. A gem!
