Food was delicious, especially the rice in the donburi. Drinks were also good.

Service was disappointing. We ordered a drink each, one app, and a salad for my wife and the yakiniku don for myself. The app and my wife's salad came out before our drinks. We had to ask about our drinks to get them. 40 mins later my food is still not out while two tables that came after us had already gotten there food and my wife was finished with hers.

Really dug this place.
Not familiar with a lot of the restaurants in the neighborhood but this was suggested and they didn’t disappoint.
I was THRILLED that music wasn’t loud and conversations could happen without much stress or strain.
Staff was very friendly!
The food was great - my party had gotten many dishes to share and all were solid choices.

Nice cozy Japanese restaurant with great service. The matcha cocktail and tuna tataki were delicious! Also tried the chicken and veggie donburi which were good, but not mindblowing. Would be curious to try the other menu items which may be better.
