“สนุกสนานอาหารอร่อย บรรยากาศดีมีระดับ“

“Bomb sushi!!!! Everything was wonderful, can’t say anything bad. Good rolls and gotta try the crispy rice for an appetizer😀“

“Very tasty and super friendly staff! We eneded up going with all recommendations from our waitress. Sweet potato and the Aburi Salmon were stand out but everything was delish. Their “margarita” sake cocktail was also really good.“

“One of our favorites in Little Tokyo. I have been going here for more than a decade. Tofu sampler is always delicious. Sushi and sashimi cuts are of high quality. Over the years I have tried most of their menu and never had disappointment.“

“My wife and I are from Sacramento, we cane down to NOHO for Universal Studios. We got here a day early and we always search for Ramen. We cane across this place. The place is small and seating is limited. Let's fast forward to the food. We both got the OG tonkatsu ramen at a mild spice flavor and eggs rolls and spicy edemame. The eggs rolls weren't special, the edemame was really good. Now for the main ramen it was delicious. The broth was thick and flavorful, the meat was cut smaller than what I'm used to and it was definitely a plus. Overall I will definitely come here again when I'm in the city“

“It was amazing, we went there on Friday late at night and it was happy hour!!!! We had some amazing Albacore rolls for about $3.00!! What??? The shrimp tempura was crispy and delicately sweet, we tried a few things, the seaweed salad was great, all the food was great but the highlight was an A5 Wagyu skewer, on arrival it looked a bit small but the two pieces of grilled melting meat are more than enough to feel the amazing taste of the marbled wagyu, I didn’t really need more. The service is outstanding, all the staff is super polite and the prices are incredible at that time of night. I’m looking forward for next weekend to go try a few things we saw the waiter bringing to the tables, we sat at the bar and kept asking -what was THAT!! And they were so nice and polite to stop and explain the dishes. Lovely lovely.“

“Best sushi ever. Better than Nobu“

“The best everything…so, Go!“

“I came in for lunch to grab a quick snack and get some editing done on my phone. I just ordered a sake cocktail that they made delicious! And i also ordered the chicken meatball skewer, which came paired with egg to dip and I loved that sweet with salty combination so much! I would say I couldnt really get any work done on my phone as I don’t believe its a work friendly place although the tables are great to do so. They dont have outlets anywhere near the tables so if you need to charge your laptop or phone here is impossible to do unless behind the bar.
I just ready a book for a bit and enjoyed my cocktail and snack. I do think the atmosphere is more of a come in with friends and share a meal and gossip a bit. Or for dinner I think its also a great spot. I loved what i tried although it wasnt much. I would come again with a friend to have some cocktails and some snacks as the food and drinks were really delicious!“

“The flavors of all the food was amazing.... everything on the menu was intriguing , I wish I tried it all!“

“Ramen were super good and excellent customer service.“

“Stumbled on this place by accident before a show at the Wiltern. What a happy accident! Had a great spread, the Chicken Karage was fire, the sushi was fresh and the beer was cold! The scallop sushi with uni and truffle was the star of the meal. The server and the sushi chef were very friendly and accommodating especially considering we walked in without a reservation or any idea really where we were or what to expect. Will definitely be back!“

“I love this place! The food is fantastic! And I’m a regular for a reason 😉“

“Delicious Udon and other Japanese specialties“

“i absolutely love this restaurant! it's my new go-to sushi place. their fish is incredibly fresh & delicious. i find their prices very fair especially compared to other high scale sushi restaurants like matsuhisa & nobu. my favorite dishes are the hamachi yellowtail, spicy hamachi roll, spicy salmon roll, and salmon nigiri with caviar.
my only complaint would be that it was difficult to hear & understand the chef & servers when we were there because it was so loud/busy, but i'm not going to dock a star for that.“

“Very trendy atmosphere plus super attentive and awesome staff with some pretty good food to go along with the drinks.

The pork katsu sando and pork buns are both delicious small bites but the real standout is the caramelized corn. Seriously, it's sweet, crispy, and addictive. If I had to select one thing off the menu it would be my pick for sure. The wagyu and pork curries are solid but unremarkable. I don't mean this is in a bad way, they're a little plain but nice, heavy, and pair well with a beer for lunch.

There's a selection of beers and sake but also some very interesting drinks for the curious. The earl grey milk highball is definitely unique. Overall definitely worth stopping by.“
