My boyfriend and I decided to try a new restaurant together. We usually eat casually and this was our first fancy dinner (we are broke college students). There was a short wait because they were busy that day, though we did have a reservation. I didn’t mind the wait, and our waitress was so quiet and patient with us. They luckily had a meat deal, and we got to try a variety of cuts for a decent price! The meats were delicious, unfortunately the sushi we got wasn’t as delicious as the meats were. Tender meat, seasoned well, and dipping sauces really complimented the meat well. Definitely will come here again!

My favorite food place in La Grange. Always a great breakfast, lunch or dinner. Fresh and consistently good. Even the carry outs. What we like most is the noise level is usually low. It’s hard to find a place where you can talk. We were lucky enough to get a booth.
