    GREAT ATMOSPHERE, but the food unsophisticated. The fish cakes were over processed and the duck lacking in flavour.

    All the food, staff and drinks are really nice! One thing need to improve about is only the seating table, i find it need a bit more space for customer to move and eat freely but overall its a really nice experience!

    The food was fine but disappointed with the tempo. There is a 90 minute time limit but the food does come out quite slow. In the end I felt rushed with actual eating time as we spent most of our time waiting. Also last order was taken 35 mins before time which seemed very early. To top it off there was a mistake with our last order ; the kitchen missed one of our dishes and we couldn't order something else because time was up. Ended the meal not feeling satisfied. Shame.

    This place is like coming into a small bar in Tokyo. Very authentic and and fun. The food and drink selection is brilliant and great flavours. The staff is super friendly and helpful with selections and recommendations. We had a very fun evening and tried lots of new things.

    A lively and busy place. Best for a casual friends catch up rather than a date/special occasion. Good range of different sakes to try and authentic dishes
