This izakaya style bar is an amazing addition to Long Beach and has quickly become a favorite for date nights and catching up with friends. The amazing, beautifully crafted drink menu and great reasonably prized izakaya style bar food make for the perfect evening.

Had such a nice dinner sat on the patio. Excellent food recommendations from our waiter and the food was phenomenal. Pricey but I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. Will return.

A wonderful Brazilian BBQ experience overall. Very friendly and professional staffs. They won’t short you on any of the meat requests. Kept coming over to make sure if we got the meats we wanted. Not to mention the extensive selection from the salad bar. I’d recommend this restaurant!

The waitress and her assistant were fantastic. The food was excellent. The hostess was efficient but somewhat abrupt. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

All I can say is wow! Food was amazing- those fall off the bone pork ribs and delicious squid ink kaarage should not be missed. Even their house sake was lovely. And their service was fast and warm and friendly. The Yakitori selection was satisfactory, we’ve had better, but we certainly would come back for the rest of the menu. 👍👍👍
