The shoyu ramen was delicious, very flavorful broth, and the umeboshi onigiri was perfectly salty and firm 🍜🍚 The service is very friendly, and the overall ambience of the restaurant is super cozy and enjoyable! Perfect for a date night.

We were roughly the first ones in as they opened. Greetings were jovial and seating was swift.
The menu was a Lot. There were many choices and the staff was willing to let us order one thing at a time, making it the perfect slow dining experience.
The Tacoyaki (octopus in dough) was fantastic and as described. Crispy on the outside and flavorful and warm on the inside.
Next we opted for 3 pieces of 4 fish. Noticing that there were 2 of us, we got 4 of 4. It was wonderful. Every fish was well cut and fresh to the taste.
Also, a nice selection of Sake. We chose a medium priced bottle to share.
The only thing is location. Campus area is strange to those who do not live there. That being said, I will most likely be back.

Delicious sushi and classic options like Udon along with poke bowls and more fusion rolls with a fun atmosphere (love the Star wars/Edo period hangings)!

One of the best happened restaurants in town. I enjoy their katsudon. But above all, try their seared salmon nigiri with house sauce. It's unique and INCREDIBLE.

The ramen tasted really good, super flavorful and satisfying. They serve lemon water instead of regular water, which I didn't expect but it was actually really refreshing. Definitely a great spot to hit for ramen or any of your Japanese cravings.

One of my favorite Japanese restaurants in Eugene and also well-liked by my Japanese exchange student friend. I tried several of the sushi rolls which were all very good. The price was fair for sushi and the taste was a lot better than other places in the area.

The atmosphere was pleasant and had a lovely Japanese vibe, which made the entire dining experience really enjoyable. The Chicken Katsu and Chicken Karaage were absolutely delicious—crispy on the outside and incredibly tender on the inside. The Tuna Poke was also generous in portion and full of flavor. The assorted sushi platter truly reflected the chef’s care and passion. Each piece had a great texture, and the garnishes like green onions and sauce enhanced the flavor beautifully. They even served lemon water instead of plain water, which added a refreshing touch to the meal. You can really sense the sincerity in how they treat their food and their guests. I highly recommend this place!

Went here for the first time and had a lovely experience. All the staff I encountered was very kind and helpful, and checked in often. And the food was so yummy and proportioned well for price! Would love to come again soon and try new food!
This place was amazing! The lemon roll and the hamachi nigiri were my favorite but everything was delicious and the fish was so fresh! The hamachi belly was hands down one of the best pieces of fish I've ever had!! Small and cozy and the service was great! I will definitely be back!!
Delicious ramen. Went back for the chicken katsu and sushi. We weren't disappointed.
Be aware: all the crab is in fact imitation krab. And when you bring it up to the owners, they will giggle and say yes it fake...Terrible experience. Very deceiving
