The food, service, and ambiance are all phenomenal. The Japanese Fusion cuisine offers a unique and delicious option in Calgary. I have tried the Ramen, Fried Chicken, Sashimi Donburi, every Skewer, Gyoza, Kimchi, Cucumber Salad, and during Pasta La Feasta Week, the Freaky Styley Dan Dan Noodles. Everything is fantastic, and the Gorilla Fried Chicken is one of the best dishes I have ever had. This restaurant is a must-try in Calgary and Alberta!

The space is very comfortable and cozy. Everything on their menu sounded delicious, it was so hard to decide. Tempura soft shell crab benedict... This is what dreams are made of. We also tried the Orange Gochujang scramble. Fantastic. I can't wait to come back and try some of the other items. Service was very attentive, and they brought out Japanese donut bites for my birthday! Such an unexpected and thoughtful surprise. Definitely eat here Update have now tried the fried rice and chicken burger!

The food was incredible, although there were a few items that weren't to my taste, overall I thoroughly enjoyed the meal. The salmon and chicken dishes were some of the best I've ever had, and the bread served was a perfect accompaniment to clean up the plates. The atmosphere of the restaurant is cozy and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend this restaurant for events with 20 or more people, such as birthdays, graduations, or any special occasion.

We ordered two glasses of sake and one glass of Riesling wine which was really good! They all went down really well. It was about $6 $7 after the discount so very reasonable. For food, we ordered the pork belly skewer to start. It was $8 so I was expecting the portion to be bigger although the taste was very good. It came with some raw egg dipping sauce. We were hesitant to us it at first but tried it in the end and it added a good flavour to the pork. For the main dishes, we got the chicken paiten ramen $18), and gorilla rice $18). The ramen was a bit spicy and the chicken broth is not the same as the pork broth I am more used to, but I still liked it. The price was a bit high though seeing as most Japanese ramen places in Calgary are cheaper. The gorilla rice was ok but felt a bit too saucy which overwhelmed us as we were finishing it up. Our server described the meat in the rice as 'premium spam ' which we thought was interesting. The atmosphere is quite unique. It 's like a blend of Asian and Western cultures. There 's Japanese inspired artwork on the walls with loud music in the background. There are plants hanging in some areas and we liked the nice bar area in the back. I would come back again to have some nice drinks and chill with the finger food.

The decor is really nice and cozy! The staff are really nice and give great advice on what to order! Pictured are the 3 desserts on the menu, the deconstructed salmon roll, stir-fry noodles, and cucumber salad!
