    Food was great, we ordered alot of skewers must order signatures. Also ordered a gyoza noodle soup made with tonkatsu very rich. Overall food is great. Skewers range from $7-10. But it takes a while for the food to come. Took us 1.5hrs to have all the food served. Tried lemon chu hi can't taste the alcohol. Also had lemon soda very lemony
