The sukiyaki was truly delicious, and even though it was a bit expensive, it was definitely worth it for such an enjoyable meal.

Small but very tastefully appointed sushi and shabu shabu restaurant. Vibe is relaxed and sophisticated. I didn’t love the happy hour oysters, from Long Island but sort of devoid of flavor. But my Naruto Roll was one of the best bites of sushi I’ve ever had. Great little find on the UES!

Very cute lowkey spot! Food was really good for its price and the service was really good. The waiter was attentive and helped us with the sukiyaki shabu shabu. Will definitely come back!

Outstanding food and service! The dishes were prepared with skill and care. The service was delivered with care and attention to the smallest details that made for such a great experience overall. Highly recommend.

Absolutely LOVE this place. The food is consistently amazing, and since you walk into the restaurant you know it's going to be good, just by looking at the crowd!

As a regular at this eatery. I experienced one of the worst evenings as a customer. Friday evening, 630pm, I'm at my usual table with my usual group. The table to my left insist that I should lower my voice. When I reported this to management, I was told that they had already filed a complaint about me. I believe management should have stepped in and addressed the situation. Anyway, I'm not angry at management; I'm just expressing my disappointment with how the evening turned out. The food is good. It's comfort food. But at the moment, I'm not sure if I'll return.

The reception guy isn't very friendly and told us there is not spot but we see there is spot on OpenTable and booked it immediately

The best shabu shabu in all of New York! Really reminds me of my business trips to Tokyo...the real deal!

They helped to prepare the food in a timely manner as well as exchange the cold water for warm water. There isn't really anything I can complain about on their side aside from the other patrons being really loud which is not their fault/

Martin

The food and service are fantastic, but the restaurant is a little bit on the pricey side.

A terrific local sushi restaurant. We didn't have a chance to enjoy the Shabu Shabu, which other tables were relishing. Will return again and again.

Truly delightful. The black cod was delicately seasoned. The clam soup is a little too salty for my taste but everything was really great. The staff is very courteous. Would definitely come back and try the sukiyaki.
