    Food was awesome. Celebrated my daughter’s 40th birthday. Incredible service. Have never been in a restaurant where the wait staff worked together to serve the customers more than these folks did. Well done Brenda and staff. Thanks for a great evening.

    Delicious! Can't believe I've lived next door for 15 years and never eaten here. Udon soup, ribs, specialty roll, fries, everything was delicious!

    This is one of our favorite restaurants in Cleveland. They’ve been delivering consistently creative quality for almost 2 decades. It all starts at the top and is reflected in the warm and friendly service. The flavors are wonderful — they make one pause and smile. Lobster roll and Kobe beef gyoza were our particular favorites this time. We always leave more than satisfied!
