    We came on a Tuesday late night, 15 waiting without reservation. This place requires you to take shoes off. Got lychee shochu, fresh water eel clay pot, oysters and fish. Awesome Japanese tapas.

    Everything tastes great here but some items are salty so get some rice to balance it out. Clay pot with salmon and roe is awesome.

    Delicious. Very authentic. Came here with Sabrina in Feb 2022 visit. Okonomayaki pizza, spare ribs were good (but overlay sauced), Agedashi tofu scrumptious, warm soba noodles were good,

    One of my favorite restaurants, there are tons of great dishes to try. Definitely get the Unagi-meshi BBQ eel over clay pot rice and ask for dashi broth with it!

    The back of the daily menu has several types of fish with multiple preparations. Loved the kinki / rock cod braised with soy sauce and sake

    If you're a rare natto-lover, you'll LOVE their tori soboro natto. iceberg lettuce cups with sauteed ground chicken and natto beans served with a spicy soy sauce

    Try the spareribs if they are on the special menu. Also the eel hot clay pot is surprisingly tasty. Finally, it's loud inside so you probably shouldn't go here for a romantic date.

    Fabulous but not cheap food, beautifully presented. Make a reservation on weekends or else. Or...arrive 15 minutes before opening for likely walk-in seat. (PS Wear easy-off shoes and clean feet!)

    Nice food, good service. Smells a bit of feet because of everyone taking their shoes off though.
