Fantastic little Izakaya, best Yakitori that I have had in the city thus far, while also being priced very well.
All the other food we tried was also very good and well-priced, as we're the cocktails.
Service was as great as he could hope for, would definitely come back.

This was excellent izakaya. I was blown away by the food and service and felt like I was back in Japan. They had a very generous 6 course prix fixe menu for only $44 per person with great selections! We left satisfied and with leftovers. And I really cannot commend the service enough, Oh was attentive and gave great recommendations. Highly recommend!!
