This place was fantastic both times I went. Special commendation to the beef tongue in garlic butter (specials menu) which was delicious beyond comparison and the litre-frosted mug of Sapporo which was ultra refreshing!

Came to this Izakaya for the first time with some friends. We ordered a couple of dishes to share. The menu isn’t very big but everything tasted pretty good. They also have some specials as well. The vibe inside is nice, clean and pretty spacious. Service was also okay. This would be a great place to fore small bites and drinks with friends but unfortunately they do close pretty early at 10:30.

Very accommodating and understanding staff. Their drinks all looked very tempting but their food was to die for. I think the only thing that was unfortunate that it was very crowded and that the salmon sold out at about 9pm

I came here with a group with reservations. There was 4 of us on a Saturday for dinner. We did family style and ordered a bunch of dishes to share. My favourite dishes were the harami steak, baked oysters, karaage, udon and seafood pancake. We did sake bombs x3 and they have a loud cheer including restaurant participation to bring you to chug them down. Service was great, and the atmosphere was lively. There is a bar where you can drink or order food, dining tables, booths, and high tops. I would come back to try other things on the menu.

Food is always good and the vibe gets very lively during Fridays/weekends. Love the creative menu that changes time to time.

We were disappointed in food options, not a lot to choose from. The udon was very plain and had no flavor as well as the fried chicken. The cocktail was also very watery. Not recommended!

Vibe was great but food is just okay. Ratings for the following we got:

- Ebi mayo: the batter was a bit oily
- Fried mackerel: same problem with ebi mayo and too much sauce
- Pressed salmon sushi: It was just okay and the rice was kinda cold and dry
- Black cod: This was the best we’ve got but also just okay.

Not sure if it was an odd day for the restaurant. We used to love this place a lot but seems like the food quality has gone down over the years.

Despite the V-day rush, the service was fast. And the food was delectable. Ordered their Karaage, Ebimayo and Yaki Udon (and ate it all by myself) - all three were perfect in taste, texture, flavor and presentation. Must visit!
