“I had such a wonderful experience at this Japanese restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and inviting. The staff was incredibly attentive and made us feel genuinely welcomed.

The food was outstanding! Super fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish tasted like it was made with care and high-quality ingredients.

What really stood out was the consistency in both service and food. Everything came out in a timely manner and the team checked in just enough to make sure we were taken care of without feeling rushed.

Overall, it’s a place I would absolutely return to and recommend to anyone looking for a great Japanese dining experience. Truly a gem!“

“Great omakase experience, indulged in the various kind of sushi with fish fresh from Japan. The appetizer was like a vintage painting combined by surprising ingredients. The interaction with our chef was priceless and he was both professional and funny. Will come again for sure. Only downside was to look for parking nearby as they don't have parking provided.“

The steak is 16$ large but wow worth it. And chicken is 11$large and always juicy and soft with also a sear. The rice is always cooked softly and her teraki sauce is always tasty. They have a bunch of of sushi too but I have yet to try sushi in my life but would give it a try here“
