"Absolutely 10 out of 10 japanese food even I compared food which I had in Japan."

Reviewers consistently praise the authentic Japanese food and generous portions, along with excellent service.

"such a lovely hidden gem! we got the bibimbap and a katsu curry and the portions were so generous and delicious:) we also got the pork belly start which was super tender. Service was amazing, very accomodating and friendly staff:) absolutely will be back again"

"Went on Saturday lunch, was surprised by the menu, plenty of great choices either for snack bites or big meal(we did). Had bento lunch box, yakisoba, agedashi tofu and Angry bird(HERO dish!!!), all taste really great! Definitely will revisit soon!"

"We shared five entrees and four mains between eight people and everyone had enough food. We all really enjoyed our meal, very tasty and authentic. The highlights were the edamame, braised pork belly and chicken katsu curry."
