Staff was wonderful and the service was quick. Food was standard izakaya fare. Oyako don was good. Butter fish was so so. Would come again.

Great japanese food! we went for lunch on a Saturday and it everything was delicious.

While I am happy to support small local restaurants, this was not a good dining experience. We ordered a wide variety of things off the menu but a lot of it fell short in flavor. In addition, everything was bone dry — the mune skewers were so tough, it wasn’t pleasant to eat at all. Same with the tonkatsu, incredibly dry.
There were two things that really did it in for me though, and make me not want to return unless there’s a drastic overhaul: 1) the leaves in our salad were decaying and looked like they were on the verge of going bad. at the very least I feel I should be served fresh greens. 2) I nearly broke my tooth on the beef enoki skewer.. there was a bone piece in the beef.
4.6 star rating is not an accurate representation of the food/experience here. Nice friendly server but other than that, not much going for it.

Everything we ordered was delicious. I live nearby and can easily see this as my go-to sushi place.

My family has been dining here every couple weeks since it opened 3 years ago. The owner Paul always greets us and does some special things for the kids: salmon sashimi in bite sized pieces and steamed tofu. Our favorites are negima, the local halibut nigiri, agedashi tofu (I would argue best in the city), grilled butter fish, and okra. All washed down with Echigo lager and our favorite sake Drunken Whale. Highly recommend for a casual but delicious meal

Not authentically Japanese. The owners and cooks are not Japanese and the presentation and food made it painfully obvious. The miso was room temperature and too salty, the rice was cooked poorly and placed sloppily in the bowl, and the bento boxes were very small for $18 lunch special. We were unfortunately not impressed and left both hungry and disappointed

Great food and food service. You definitely should try. Prices are typical but not too high.
