For some reason, they started removing the sun parasols 45 minutes before closing time. When I politely asked that they leave them until we’d finished our drink, I was ignored. Abysmal customer service.

The food is expensive and not great with small portions. I didn’t like the teas they were not very strong and tasted too close to water. I’m grateful to have tried it but will not eat here again given the choice.

Matcha latte is so bad… it’s made of premade powder. No real matcha powder and bo real milk. It’s so bad… way too sweet. $6 wasted

My dietary restrictions were completely ignored, even after checking with the barista before making my drink.

Dietary restrictions: Told the barista about my dietary restrictions, but they were ignored.

This place could be really cute and provide good prodicts but...almost all the tea was sold out. The guys working there weren't terribly friendly or helpful. The tea was ok but nothing particularly interesting. Limited seating outside with the majority of seated people not consuming anything. I wouldn't stop there again. Plenty of other places in the area, go there instead.

We ordered a teriyaki chicken rice bowl and a beef rice bowl. Disappointed with both-the beef was cut into cubes with a lot of fat. The chicken was several large flat pieces.
Typical prices for a tourist area.
Only positive was the 'dining' area, as it wasn't crowded.

This is the worst food venue in the park which is unfortunate because Japanese food is usually great. You're better off anywhere else.

Didn’t like the clerk. Curly haired guy. He was rude. Didn’t direct any line traffic appropriately. Got my water tho, a bit overpriced tbh.

I ordered the shrimp Udon soup. It literally has ONE piece of shrimp; the rest is just the onions and the noodles. The soup was also cold. It is over priced, and I am pretty sure authentic Japanese restaurants offer more shrimp in the soup. The only thing worth it here is the view.
