Not easy to find. You have to enter a building lobby (no signs) and find it inside. The food was excellent, as was the service. We had a large group and it was served family style. Lost one star for noise. The place is very busy and sound reverberates off all the hard surfaces.
Good food, but very noisy and loud music, that you can not taste what you eat
What a fantastic meal! Everything from the bread, watermelon salad, probably best ever rigatoni I've ever had, and delicious pork katsu.

Not to the mention the top tier sticky toffee pudding. I love sticky toffee pudding in general and this didn't disappoint. Will give 9/10. Just a tad too sweet and could have been much warmer when served. But the apple sorbet made up for it

Also very nice service. Perfect place for a birthday celebration
