The tempura is delicious, with the batter being so light. However, a full meal of tempura dishes lack diversity and can be a bit boring. The restaurant is not ‘part’ of the hotel, so there’s no free parking voucher. Don’t eat too slowly, lest you get a hefty parking charge.

We have been coming here since the place first opened over 20 years ago. We do because it serves the most varied and scrumptious yakitori dishes in Singapore and service is excellent. Prices are over 3 times more expensive than Tori-Q but what the heck, we onky live once.

The outlet at Dempsey is a bit isolated, so you always find a seat here. The cooked dishes are unusual and excellent. The sushi and sashimi are less plentiful but still very fresh. Service is good, although there is only one male waiter because the restaurant is not full. Prices are reasonable.

This is a review of the new Marutama outlet at ION Orchard. I had the Stone Bowl Dandan Tsukemen unique to this branch, and the side chicken balls. The latter were yummy, but the Tsukemen is one of the worst I have had. The broth is too thick and much less flavourful or fragrant than other versions. Service is friendly and efficient. Although there’s a line at meal times, for me it’s less good than the ramen place that stood at the same location before.

Decent variety. Nice atmosphere. The food is good and reasonably priced for Orchard Rd location. Staff are pleasant, but service is not proactive. We had to ask for everything: napkins (only one provided for two pax!!), tea refills, etc.

Beware : the dishes are much bigger in photos than in real life!

We had the Yuki Omakase ($200++) at lunch. Most pieces are excellent, especially the tuna appetiser, otoro, uni, and unagi. The rice dish is underwhelming. Very professional service. If we had the omakase with cooked dishes, maybe it would be more at par with other top sushi counters in Singapore.
