Taline EkmekjianMay 31, 2013Cozy, cute and no fuss restaurant. Open kitchen. Good food. My favorites were the pork buns and the eggplant buns. Love the abundance of vegetarian options.
Jennifer KMay 9, 2013I am in love w/ this place! Burdock root & miso eggplant buns- a must! Chicken wings are dynamite - the sauce is spicy. The special beef & rice bowl w/egg on top.MMM, we scraped the bowl clean.
Serious EatsApril 25, 2013Fresh and unfussy Japanese cooking reigns here. Though not always perfect, it's earnest and vegetable-forward, hardly a challenge to make a good meal.

Wilson ZhouJune 8, 2013The way they made buns is an authentic Asian one, I only had before in China. Okonomiyake is a must-try dish, special and amazing!- Jennifer KMay 9, 2013I believe I've developed a slight addiction to the "Fountain of Youth". It's Delish. Everyone who works there is super lovely, great energy

Janet YuApril 26, 2012Food is ok. Love the (sake / green tea/lavender)ice cream. Service is poor , not friendly, don't plan to go back unless for the ice cream.

It’s not traditional Japanese food; it’s cooking from the heart, satisfying and surprising, created and served in a stylish open kitchen.
