    The food is always good. A friend who has had ramen in Japan really likes theirs. I like their Unagi Donburi.

    Forgot it was a birthday celebration. A little to consistently noisy had to wait for a water refill for over 5 minutes

    This is a real find. I like the variety of dishes here. The food is very good and so is the service. We come often and are not disappointed. Love that you can get a bowl of ramen or skewers or sushi or appetizers. Their steamed egg dish is a must try and the best.

    Had the $168 omakase option for my friend's birthday dinner and they were so nice and accommodating!! She absolutely loved it! Ambiance: The restaurant itself is such a cute little space! We sat at the bar for the omakase, which I highly recommend you do. Service: Excellent! Our plates were always cleared so quickly and my water was refilled constantly. Food: Super fresh and yummy! They have kizami wasabi, which I love, and the uni was my fave. My friend doesn't eat meat (she's a pescatarian) and they were able to accommodate for her, which I really appreciated. They even put a candle in her dessert! Overall, you should check this place out if you're in the area! I'll definitely be back!
