    Service was excellent! The servers were sweet and attentive . Food was 90% fabulous overall quality was excellent! Cod was buttery and flavorful Karate chicken was perfect not greasy yet crispy Great down to 1 thing - the torched Aburi sushi was too thin of fish with too much sauce on top, either lighter on the sauce or thicken the fish on top a bit more to give it a bit of balance on taste or else it is too oily hitting the palette. Overall enjoyable and yummy experience

    Please please pls bring back absolute favourite dishes like the udon carbonara, ikipiri and vindara (crispy miso cod). They are why I like to go back time and again the last 10+ yrs. Oh also, the front room is cold, could use more heating. Huge thx!

    We had a fantastic night here! The staff were very accommodating of our large group. They recommended taking over the ordering for us and did an amazing job on the menu (also much less stressful for everyone than trying to organize 12 people’s small plates orders!) A proper izakaya experience and everything was delicious. Would go back any day :)
