I ate here a few days ago with my family and enjoyed the experience. I ordered the Crunch Shrimp Roll and Chicken Gyozas and found them both delicious. We also split a big bowl of Shrimp Fried Rice, and had Green Tea ice cream for dessert.
The atmosphere is very intimate and cozy and the food was brought out in quick fashion.

I I am a 70-year-old lady who were really right views, but I felt compelled to share my experience so others would be aware.
The food presentation was extremely poor for below. Anyone would expect from a restaurant when I politely raised my voice and concerns to the owner who responded in a shock, unprofessional manner, even threaten to call the police on me for simply voicing my dissatisfaction.
This was the most unpleasant dining experience I’ve ever had and I would strongly advise others to think twice before try this restaurant.
In the future, he could think about telling his tone to be more formal, calmer and a different approach.

Disappointing. Something has changed. Acceptable food altho many izakaya items were unavailable. Same for Japanese draught beer. Disjointed service that felt rushed.

Oh boy. Get the beef-wrapped shishito peppers. This place is lovely. The service is absurdly good and the drinks keep on flowing. Highly recommended!

Stopped by this Japanese restaurant in lake forest on a Friday night with family. We sat down promptly and the service was fast. Tried an assortment of sushi and hand rolls edamame cucumber salad and their spicy beef bowl. All gray and fresh although the the spicy beef bowl wasn’t spicy and was more sweet than anything else. Overall a solid 4.

My family went here and loved it. Comfy seats and interior, great & high quality food that’s hard to find around here, and attentive service.

Nice place to have a drink and tasty grilled meats. The quality of the product was better than most places around. It was like the hydro quality vs the mid quality you got when you were in middle school on your first "deal."

If you go here, I recommend Habuya.
There are Japanese staff, but it's a bit strange.
