The lunch special wasn't too bad but not a four or five star menu. At $21, I got a chirashi bowl with cold soba noodles. The reality is that the chirashi rice wasn't sushi rice, and there only a handful of thin sliced sashimi. 90% of the bowl was just plain white rice and that wasn't even Japanese rice. I get way more sashimi from Nijiya chirashi bento. The cold soba was good but overall there was too much carb combined and very little sashimi. It wasn't...
The foods really taste delicious. I'm happy with their service. They quickly serve what I ordered and had it freshly made. Everything went well including the parking. I can highly suggest this restaurant.

We ordered dinner special...
