We had a great experience here, arriving in a party of ten to celebrate a birthday. The staff was both friendly and helpful. A wonderful satisfying meal and a lovely evening.

Excellent food, good service but as is the nature of izakaya expect dishes to arrive separately and over the course of your meal, not all at once.

I don’t know. I had high expectations but I was so disappointed with this experience overall. The staff appeared to not enjoy their job. I don’t blame them. I think for me, the patrons was the worst and affected everything else. There was a family with 2 sick kids sitting near the sushi bar. They were just hacking not covering their mouths and the parents did nothing. Other tables were just loud and unenjoyable. When I was in the food service industry, I’d give the parents a WTF look and say please have your kids cover their mouths. They’d be so embarrassed they’d finally act like parents. So I felt that their germs were all over the restaurant that we only ate half our food and took it home but we ended up throwing it away. What a waste. The food was okay, nothing wowed me in fact, I wish we didn’t get the chefs choice. We wished 4 of the nigiri wasn’t included.

Food and service are consistently great. Authentic, cozy Izakaya. We go there often and always have the crab/avo salad, butteryaki scallops, korroke, ume ochazuke and kakuni. Other favorites are karei karaage, assorted tempura and geso karaage. Everything is fresh, nicely portioned, and seasoned perfectly.

Can’t go wrong with their prix fixe menu, always great. Hamachi kama is also delicious. Love their Asahi yuzu beer.
