It was a phenomenal experience! We'll be recommending this to our friends in Philly and will likely be back. We did the 12-course omakase and were blown away. Leo was great!

Loved everything about this place! Will be my go to place every time I’m in Philly now. I feel it is not as spacious but plenty of seating. It’s a very chill vibe in there. Happy hour lasted until 6pm on Friday night. My fave was the wagyu spring rolls with its sauce, had a hint of peanut butter in it. The kanarge (i know butchered the name) look like catfish bites but it’s chicken with the orange sauce it was so good. Came in a good size portion to share. Also ordered the east coast oysters for $2 each definitely worth it. Total was around $50 for two which is nice.
