3.23.20 11:11 PM reservation... greeted with the most wonderful smile, from the hostess Vanessa !! We had a wonderful dinner late night, and it was just perfect, coming back from the Astra Lumina light show! Thank you so much for being open late! Our server was Kylah, and she was so sweet to us! My friend had the salmon teriyaki Bento box and I had the shrimp teriyaki box, not spicy, which was perfect and we had miso soups and sweet potato rolls... plenty of food in the bento boxes and it was great!! We do miss the old owner for many years ago Jimmy, but now the place feels calmer, and the music isn't so loud that you can barely eat. Now the music is just right and digestion is wonderful! We had such a good time and such a good meal and, we even remembered that we used to eat the same foods all the time back in the day! We even used to have the miso soups, the salad with ginger dressing and avocado, the shrimp tempura, sweet potato, tempura, and Japanese potato tempura, many different seafood rolls... But the favorites were the crème brûlée cheesecake, which is out of this world delicious! And of course they were out of it. By the time we got there late at night ... But we also used to get the roasted ginkgo biloba nuts, which I hope they will bring back!!! Gosh they were delicious!!! Thank you for being open late night and we will be back! The Bento boxes are such a great deal at $22 and they have plenty of good stuff in them even the seaweed salad!! Thank you YAKITORI BOY!! ✨♥️

AWESOME drinks and great grub. I usually do apps + ramen soup. I think this time i did the Brussel sprouts which were bangin' and some chicken wings. Or was valentines day and if I'm not mistaken it was also the day of the Eagles victory parade, so perhaps it wasn't fair for me to drop a star from service and atmosphere on account of not being able to get a seat without reservations ;)
Will absolutely eat here again! #Panasian #ramen #chinatown
Kid-friendliness: It's really not a place for kids if you ask me. It's a bar and restaurant and the menu isn't super kid friendly

Absolutely horrible service. Never had an experience like this where we are trying to order drinks and the bartender refused to make eye contact with us. Do not go here.

So sad such a fun place but the service is poor. It started good but at the end of the night was horrid. I should've known when the manager on the floor told me the minimum for the reservation was 350 but the host downstairs stated that it was 375. Okay that's fine. But then at the end of the night I asked for 30 more minutes to get the minimum because she told me that we were at 245 at 11pm. Okay so the manager gave us 1130. Fine when we get the bill it was 60 dollars away from 600 which would've been the extension. So we asked for the extension. Management refused and they tried to have me pay the bill without all the food I ordered. Then while we are splitting the bill amongst ourselves the manager giving us a dirty look. Sir please try Jesus not me. Just horrible. I've been coming here for year and usually love this place but this was really sketchy and weird

Amazing experience here! The food was delicious especially the yakitori.. the ribeye and corn were our favorite. We also loved the spring rolls and brussel sprouts. The cocktail, Berry Blossom, was sweet and strong and delicious. The wait staff was super attentive and kind. Ambience was awesome. I hope next time I can get on of their more secluded booths!

If I could give this place zero stars I would! This was my first and last time here! They definitely do not value their customer's! There were so many disappointing things we experienced at this karaoke establishment, I honestly don't even know where to begin and it would be to much to write .I do not recommend.
Probably the worst excuse for a karaoke bar I have ever experienced. Not only was it awful, but there was a cover. Terrible in all aspects

Relatively inexpensive, drawing a younger crowd for a very diverse menu, including ramen, sushi, katsu, curry, and chirashi. Service was great while food quality was okay, but not spectacular. Great place for when different members of your party want different things.

My boyfriend and I came here for an impromptu date night and everything was excellent! I came here twice before but it was his first time and he enjoyed it as well! Food, drinks and service everything was great! Can't wait to come back.

If I could give zero stars I would. Staff was exceptionally rude and racist. They literally put their hands on my friends when we weren’t moving as fast as they wanted us to move. You can tell the ownership and management are not people persons and do not know how to run a business. The karaoke was one of the worst I have ever been to and was exceptionally overpriced considering this is Philadelphia, not New York or Miami. I’ve been to the dinner section of this establishment and had no problems. The second I stepped on the karaoke side every single thing went downhill from there. Please do not waste your time or hard earned money on this place.

They don’t have Hall and Oates. What else do you need to know about a karaoke bar?
