Jasmine ValentineDecember 11, 2014For me its refreshing to see a Japanese restaurant that serves a great range of food other than sushi. Specializing in their delicious teriyaki BBQ the food is very delicious, highly recommended.Upvote5Downvote
GemmaFebruary 1, 2014Incredible food, the seabass sashimi is amazing, as are the ribs & soft shell crab. Also, the broccoli is some of the best I've tasted. Very flash, a real treat.

NicoNovember 14, 2016I went there for the Sunday brunch, it costs 49 pounds. Apart from that the food is very nice and tasty. I'm not sure how much I will recommend the brunch. The quality is lower than normalUpvoteDownvote
Lucas RossJuly 29, 2011Wonderful food and food service. Staff were quick and attentive. We had party of 6 with 3 kids and everyone was happy. Ok, 6 yr old was ready to go but others were happy. Taster menu is a great optionUpvote2Downvote
