What People Are Saying

Overall Experience

The restaurant is generally well-received, with customers praising the diverse menu and high-quality food. Many consider it a must-visit spot.

Customer Favorites

Tofu dishes are consistently highlighted as exceptional, with the yakitori and mushroom skewers also receiving high praise. Seafood, especially the yellowtail and scallops, is another popular choice.

Atmosphere & Service

The restroom experience was surprisingly pleasant. Service quality is generally acceptable but may fall short of expectations for higher-priced options.

Value & Quality

The set menu is considered expensive, with the wagyu beef and king crab not justifying the cost. A la carte options are recommended as a better value, offering high-quality seafood, tofu, and fried items.

Areas for Improvement

The richness of some grilled items may be overwhelming and chicken skewers were unavailable at the time of the review. The set menu (omakase) is not recommended due to its high price and perceived lack of authenticity.

Recent Trends

Recent reviews maintain positive sentiment regarding the food quality, with a specific callout for the grilling technique used for certain dishes, but the chicken skewer absence remains.
