Honestly, one of the best lunch sets I’ve had in a while. Everything in the bento was hit after hit—the sashimi was my absolute favorite and tasted super fresh. I heard the owner put lots of efforts on food quality control. The tempura had that perfect crunch without being oily, and I was actually surprised by the sides. The eggplant was so good, and they make the most delicious burdock root—it’s sliced thin and has the best flavor! It’s rare to find a place that puts this much effort into every single corner of the tray. Definitely worth a visit!

This is my hidden gem. I love this place so much. Japanese food by Japanese chefs and waiters. Perfection. This is my second time here and every plate has been phenomenally delicious. Food we ate and loved : - Daikon salad (with plum dressing) - 7 piece Tsukiji Chef’s choice nigiri sushi - Nankotsu Kaarage (fried chicken cartilage) - crispy Fish karaage - Agenasu (eggplant in garlic soy sauce) - Tsukiji Sashimi assorted - Truffle Chawanmushi

Pretty quiet, the waitress comes along often to ask whether we need anything, the rice and noodles are average, but the sushi were pretty fresh and good.

Came here during happy hour, the sushi rolls were a good price. The staff was very polite and I loved the chill vibes this place had, allowed me to enjoy my food all the better. Would go again!
