Delicious food, kind staff, and a great atmosphere. Literally everything - the dumplings, the omelette, the pumpkin soup, the toast, the salad - was superlative. Highly recommended to folks visiting the National Cathedral!

Had dinner there, The nigiri maki plate is delicious and so is the miso soup! The manager is very accommodating and welcoming. I want to try their lunch bento soon. Highly recommend!
November 2024
Love this restaurant. The food is fresh and well prepared. I have many favorites.Perfect fusion. I do recommend that the expediter pay closer attention to the delivery orders. Some of the main ingredients are missing from the meals. E.g., no sea bass in the see’s bass entree. Missing shrimp in the tempura shrimp and vegetables, etc. We order frequently and want to continue our patronage. Thanks!
