Was very much looking forward to this meal but was unfortunately disappointed. Out of this world salty and too much sauce ON everything - definitely not typical of Japanese fare. Great service though!
We ordered karaage, tempura, shrimp shumai, and a few robata. Pictured are the chashu braised pork belly, Sakura duroc pork sausage, and beef ribeye robata (from top to bottom) and the shrimp shumai. Everything was great and my favorite was the pork sausage. I look forward to trying more items on the menu.
Every single dish we had was delicious. The tsukune (Japanese BBQ homemade chicken meat balls) and the kinoko itame (fresh mushrooms sautéed in buttery ponzu) were our favorites and far exceeded our expectations. 10/10 recommend a try. If you aren’t familiar with Japanese cuisine the staff is super friendly and helpful.
