Had a wonderful time! The service was awesome, very attentive. Food was absolutely delicious. We got there in time for happy hour, which had great specials. We had the shishito peppers, octopus balls, and then tonkatsu ramen to end. Everything was top notch! Highly recommend

We just returned from three weeks in Japan and we’re missing the cuisine. This place has a wide variety of Izakaya Staples, and will become a regular place for us.

Great food, huge amount! Couldn't eat half of my pork / rice dish. Atmosphere is - eh - too bright. But fine for lunch. Service was okay, felt like there was an attitude when I asked for a fork and knife. But they let us linger a little at lunch, which puts this spot in a positive light! Much appreciated
