    Had the omakase $66 per person for two and some drinks. Drinks were pretty good. Omakase was pretty good, fish was fresh, but there were some bit of scales that you usually wouldn’t expect. Service was okay as there seats were full. But it’s pretty hard to get a hold of someone.

    These guys are really on top of their game with wonderful food and exceptional service! Highly recommended, in an area where it seems a surplus of good choices exists for the hungry diner, this izakaya really stands out. There are specials that change frequently, a deconstructed potato salad (bacon bits, fried onions, mayo, mustard, eggs, plus the namesake potatos) was absolutely shocking in the freshness and savouriness of its components, the sushi fish specials are always exceptionally tasty, the tempura and kalbi (ribs) are popular dishes (among other diners we noticed) for good reasons, very good and compelling reasons indeed! We particularly love the octopus dish which presents a really tender piece of invertebrate tentacle, plus potatos, backed with some very complex sauces involving garlic and miso. The rice plus protein (eg beef, pork, eel) bowls are remarkable as well, highly satisfying as comfort food if you desire that. Looking forward to going back regularly... Note too there is a happy hour daily up to 630PM with cheaper bar food items, eg fries and cheaper draft sapporo. Well worth the cheapness there!

    There’s 3 sushi roll options.. if you’re looking for a snack sure, if you’re going out for dinner.. find somewhere else, slow service, lack of service, manager or supervisor barely helping server that was struggling.. spent 250$ w/tip.. I’ve been in service industry for a very long time, I hate leaving reviews like this, the reviews that are online are totally misleading. The fried chicken was the only silver lining.

    The restaurant does has a Omakase menu. For a little bit more money, and to try more dishes, I recommend to order from menu instead of the Omakase menu. To me, the music level is just a little bit too high.

    Food is great but service is lacking. Server did not really follow and realize the needs of customers. But they are still asking for at least 18% tips. LOL.
