Everything was great until it was time to pay. I sat at the bar at the same time as a couple was getting there. We had some drinks and a really good conversation. When I asked for my bill I was handed my tab and the couples. I explained to the lady that we were on separate checks. She refused to split our bill and first threatened to call security and then the cops if we had a problem with it. Good beer but absolutely bad service.

Good food!!, A little crowded but the food makes it worth it
Absolute worst service!! From the moment we arrived the person attending was very rude and they weren’t even busy. I met a person in the mall who was going to the same concert later that day that I was. We decided to grab some beers at this establishment. Once it came time for the check one of the staff put everything on one tab, assuming we were on the same check. When she brought the check we simply stated “oh separate checks please”. She began arguing with us “no you should have told me separately” mind you these are hand written. We explained we just met, I didn’t even have this guys phone number, why can’t you just simply write them separately or divide it. There was nothing stating checks could not be separated. She absolutely refused and threatened to call security on us. I’ve never experienced anything like this! Just be aware of the extremely rude service. I’ve never been threatened with having security called on me, that is a first. Not a good feeling by any means.

Food is meh - got the curry katsu Don and mentaiko pasta.Curry was cold and alright. The pasta wasn't super flavorful. Each dish was $20, so not really worth it.There's a 5% credit card fee too

They were amazing. The agedashi tofu blew me away, and they let me special order a low carb (no crust) version. Highly recommended

Based on other people's reviews I was really looking forward to this place. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the dishes I ordered, which were the creamy corn croquette and mentaiko pasta. The croquettes were over cooked and partially burnt, and the mentaiko tasted old and fishy. I won't be coming back here to give it a second chance based on the price and the fact that there are too many other places to try.

The curry pork katsu is sooooo bad, it’s dry, tasteless and a bit sour (the meat). The takoyaki is the same you can buy from frozen grocery store, it’s not they make. Never try anything this bad. My friend from japan said this is the worst curry he every eat, he end up with throw up this food and buy new food at other store. Don’t try.

Awesome location, very atmospheric, staff is extra nice, unfortunately food is average.
Average meal at best. Service was non-existent.We may have ordered the wrong items, but our meal was very mediocre compared to the favorable reviews this restaurant has received. I guess their curry plates are the way to go.We ordered takoyaki and cream corn croquettes for appetizers. Our main entree was cold soba noodles. The appetizers were pretty good, but the soba noodles were horrible. First off, our cold soba noodles came with ice cubes in the sauce and mixed within the noodles themselves. I guess that's their way of cooling the broth. It did not look very appealing and the ice cubes watered down the flavor of the sauce.Also, service was bad. It may have been because we were seated in the corner, but we had to wait over ten minutes for them to bring our check. We waited another fifteen minutes for them to take our cash payment and give us change. However, they never came so I ended up leaving a smaller tip than I would have if they came and gave me change. I didn't have small bills for a sufficient tip, but we couldn't wait any longer.Note: Your bill will have a credit card amount and a cash amount. Their menu states that credit card amounts will be 5% higher, but that wasn't the case on our bill. It was closer to 2.5%.

Tasty comfort food, low key service, cozy ambiance with vintage manga lining one wall.
Had a tasty bowl of curry. They had good veggie options. The selection of good Japanese beer and sake is great! Plus, the host was super passionate and friendly to tell us more about the japanesr beers!
Came here for lunch while doing some shopping in Japantown.The restaurant is in a very unique location, situated in the middle of a walkway between two shopping centers. There are about 6-8 tables seating 2-4 people, as well as counter seating for around 10.I ordered the Menchi-katsu curry over rice - the portion size was decent, with two large halves of a beef patty, breaded with panko. The menchikatsu was well seasoned, a little dry, but still was soft and melted in your mouth. The curry sauce was a little on the weak side, almost watery in consistency.Service was a little slow, but that was expected, due to the restaurant being crowded.Overall, decent quality - just be prepared for a wait if you go during peak lunch hours
