Pork katsu lunch box is not bad. Sushi sashimi box and seafood tempura box are disappointing. Portion is small. Seafood tempura has several pieces of vegetable tempura.

A cute little place with very good quality food. The tempura was crisp and delicious with fresh seasonal ingredients. My only criticism is that there were very limited drink and dessert options (there was no tea and only basic ice cream and mousse were available for dessert)

Ordered lunch takeout – it was good but wasn’t “wowing”. I’ll consider trying more menu items in the future

I was just visiting with my girlfriend, she told me about this place. So why not, let me give a shot. Which I did and it was so amazing and the food as well. It’s not that expensive, you get big meal for good price. I had the spicy Ramon and it okay spicy but the food was so good.

Teriyaki steak, and 2 out of 3 spicy rolls were good. It may just be my American palate but I didn’t care for the 3rd roll with red caviar, didn’t taste fresh..but it could also be it’s just too strong for me I’m new to Japanese food. Ginger served with my sushi was very crisp and fresh.
