The intimate setting, with seating for around 10 guests, allows for engaging conversations with the knowledgeable chefs and staff, who share their expertise on the fish and Japanese cuisine. The dimly lit atmosphere creates a cozy ambiance, while the attentive and enthusiastic chefs enhance the overall experience. Each dish is carefully prepared, with highlights including the hot dish featuring fish roe and uni. Guests have praised the excellent service and warm hospitality, with chefs often sharing stories and playing games, adding fun to the meal. The 19-course tasting menu includes favorites like Ankimo, Akami Zuke, Chu-toro, O-toro, Kinmedai, and Hokkaido Uni. Counter seating encourages interaction with the sushi chef and nearby diners. The restaurant also offers an impressive sake and wine selection that complements the dishes.
