    The food was amazing. I had the Eggplant, Mushroom Toban and fried rice. Totally worth it. The service was also amazing. The servers were kind, knew the menu well and able to provide good suggestions.

    Good ambience and good food. Some of the dishes like the tuna pizza was great, but others were fairly plain given the price point. The service was good, albeit a bit rushed. Overall it was an enjoyable experience.
