"After Saporo closed my friends and I have been looking for a new place to eat after karaoke and thank god we found this place. Atmosphere is nice and the food is absolutely delicious."
"triple salmon rice bowl - very good - 2 salmon slice, Salmon roe, grilled fatty salmon with crispy outside (reminds me of pork belly), 2 thin slices of lemon and a shiso leaf; Miso soup a lot of seaweed and some tofu; a bit of pickled radish and cucumber on the side"
"Their horumonyaki is sweet, salty, smoky, chewy and delicious - excellent when it's cold out."
"Everything we got was amazing."
"The best donburi we’ve had since we visited Japan."
"This time we tried the intestines soup and this was absolutely delicious."
Cons:
"Grilled food was grilled well but salted too much for the beef tongue and pork belly."
"Udon with yakiniku beef - tried someone else's - I thought beef was a bit tough"
"The udon was okay but the broth was very greasy, salty, and heavy and meat was a bit hard to chew."
"The taste however is quite average, and I think they don’t match up to the price point."
"Had yam and taro croquette (a little bland but still ok)."
"The donburi was so bland yet salty."
"The katsu curry, which was too tough."
