Located within the new luxurious development of 190 Strand, the restaurant hosts a cocktail bar in the mezzanine area with outside seating, has an open kitchen and a sushi counter, and a private room within the main restaurant. Soba noodles are prepared daily in the main restaurant inside the Soba room, where our highly skilled chefs will knead the dough and cut it fresh for each service.

    Authentic japanese, but for the price point, food was just so so: Sashimi, sobs noodles & tempura. Kobe beef was really good though. But I guess that’s expected. Nothing that made me exclaim that THIS IS AMAZING.

    It is deffinately a nice place to eat. The Sushi is their star quality. The kobe meat were prepaired by the chief in a way that need a little bid more to show what the chief really can do. The meat is nice but it is to simple.

    Tremendous restaurant with exquisite food. We sat at the bar and could see the care and attention with which each plate was created. We will absolutely be coming back.

    Excellent food from start to finish. We sat at the Sushi counter, which was lovely. Service a bit hit and miss - efficient yet lacking a little friendliness and warmth. Not a cheap meal but worth it regardless for the outstanding presentation, quality and taste of the food. We will return
