Really good food! Tried the raw octopus pickled plum ochazuke, and the chicken cutlet donburi and enjoyed every bite!!
What's a treat to have a spot like this! Amazing food - a place where there are so many good options it's hard to pick! Simple food done well. Definitely don't sleep on the fried rice balls - the shoyu butter is incredible
unagi onigiri was especially delicious! the pork belly donburi was super flavorful, but a bit on the saltier side, while the sake ochazuke was hearty but perhaps a bit bland for my personal taste. staff were lovely & the vibes were v homey and cozy!
