The sashimi was fresh and delicious, the bento box offered a satisfying dinner portion, and the beef dish was especially tasty. The restaurant has both a large table for bigger groups and smaller tables for groups of four. The staff were friendly and provided prompt service. I appreciated that they accept efpos payments and offer takeaway containers for a minimal charge of 50 cents. I would definitely return to this restaurant in the future.

I liked my fried rice and you could see pieces of salmon in it with roe topping.<br/ <br/ Service The waitress who served us was friendly and explained which dishes were allowed under Zomato Gold. A bit disappointed that the bento boxes were not included but there were many other options to choose from. <br/ <br/ Ambience A cute little eatery situated in Midcity and had Japanese influenced decor. Did feel like you could pass being in Japan while in there. <br/ <br/ Overall, it was a good experience. <br/ <br/ Follow for more reviews!<br/

Only down fall would be the restaurant didn't look appealing. If it wasn't recommended to us in the first place it's not somewhere I would have thought to go to.
