“The fried chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
It's been a while since I've eaten Japanese fried chicken, and it's even more delicious than other fried chicken restaurants in Japan!
I couldn't finish the fried chicken bento I bought for lunch by myself, so I warmed it up and ate it at night, and it was still delicious even after a while.
I also ordered spicy mayo for the sauce, but the fried chicken was delicious as is.“

“My husband got a ninja star roll and said this was some of the best sushi he’s ever had. The wait time said 2 hours when we first walked up, but we only got the 1 roll and only waited maybe 10 minutes, so we were really happy about that.

Definitely a must try when in Kona!“
