While some reviews mention that certain dishes, like the Hiroshima Okonomiyaki and dry ramen, are executed perfectly and bring back memories of Japan, others find some dishes to be just okay, especially if not visiting after a night out. The food is consistently noted for being fresh, with generous portion sizes, and the chefs prepare the food visibly on a large grill, adding to the experience.
