Best Authentic Restaurants in Downtown

A beautiful surprise. I didn’t know much about it. I just went there because I was looking for a French restaurant but what a wonderful discovery. Try their snails and boeuf bourguignon. I had them and were delicious!

The food here is delicious. Depending on the time of the day, the rate at which the meat comes out could slow down. We went at 5pm and at first, the service was a bit slow but as it got closer to dinner, servers were everywhere. The buffet station was okay with the selection available. It just didn't seem that impressive when it came to everything else. Presentation needs to be updated and choices available. Overall I had a good time with my friends.

Amazing food and nice waiters. Loved the seating a lot!

Good food. Reasonably priced wines and cocktails. Accommodated a large group well.

I took my mom here for her birthday who is half Japanese and she had a wonderful time! We all really enjoyed experiencing flavors that were unique and fun to share with each other. We all ordered the omakase and ordered the almonds and chinmi separately. Maybe the only ding in the experience was the servers mispronounced omakase, which was weird considering it's a high-end Japanese restaurant. They don't put the emphasis on "ma", rather they make it sound like kamikaze which is off-putting at the ordering stage. I loved the Grilled California Holstein Beef Strip the most. It was so simple to look at, but the flavor of the beef with the salt crystals was divine. Loved the fresh seaweed shot with grapes! This made all of us say Wow! The omakase came with a mackerel sushi roll which wasn't on the menu, but it was a flavor bomb. The steamed rice was beautiful with the pork jowl. I could eat that rice on its own though! The miso soup was super tasty! I would skip the shiitake tempura but it's part of the omakase. Too oily, don't eat the whole thing. The new katsu with wagyu beef is a huge amount of food. My mom ate 1/4 of it and had to take the rest home, but my boyfriend ate the whole thing! The cocktails were fantastic, along with the sake pairings throughout our meal. The bartender was stellar. Loved the Yuzu Reviver (vodka) and the Old Fashioned. We left feeling full and satisfied, but not stuffed. It was all delicious! Expect a 2 1/2 hour delectable experience! Enjoy!
