Guys. If you want great service and okay atmosphere with really small portion of food, here it is. Any dish that is not clearly labeled amount would disappoint you in portion. For instance, four piece of lightly grilled tofu for $12.

I do have to admit, the sashimi is good quality (but really small portion) maybe on date night you guys could come :)

The grilled eel rice is so small. And I can’t believe I waited for this dish (totally not worth it ) I know the waiting time already before I order it but the quality of the food was definitely not worth the price and the time I waited for.

Anyways, I really regret coming into this place.

Service is spotless. Everyone was extremely polite and friendly. Excellent service and atmosphere! Food, however. Was quite subpar. Miso pork tonkatsu was chewy and old. The plate wasn't even sizzling when it arrived on the table. Even though the menu said "sizzle". The tsukune was tasty, they do require to order 2 sticks at a time but the price on the menu is for 1 stick so that can be confusing. Fire cracker chicken bowl was also chewy. Like they just popped the chicken in the microwave or something. After 730pm is happy hour and you can select from a short list of drinks and food for discounted rates. The restaurant is in a residential area surrounded by houses. So if you can't park in that tiny parking lot you can probably find street parking.

Perfect when you miss Japanese food?
It was a delicious meal ?

Parking: Although it is near an intersection, the frontage is large and easy to enter.

Solid option for japanese restaurant, for non-raw fish dishes. I like that they offer less common japanese dishes like the Tsukunes, the steamed rice thing, and other varieties of dishes. Servers are oddly professional which was nice.It's not high-end japanese but its reasonably priced and the food is very good.

We need to wait outside of the restaurant until the table is ready.
The quality of food seems to be overrated.

Loved it! A super relaxing atmosphere with a kind and attentive staff. The service was definitely a highlight. Loved having Sapporo on tap,The food was pretty good I had the fried okra and ramen. Both super simple plates, I would describe it as more classic than innovative, but nothing wrong with that!
