The sushi came with a generous amount of mentaiko topped of the salmon slice , it have both a nice salty taste and a good bite of fish , paired well with any alcohol you will be ordering would definitely recommend
ordered an assortment of dishes but the beef stew stands out the most. it was rich in its sweetness and super flavourful. highly recommended to order this if you ever drop by!
Went on a Monday Night and was lucky to get a seat immediately. Ordered Pork Jowl Charsu, Kani Gratin, Gyuniku Jaga and Garlic Fried rice.
Pork Jowl Charsu - the pork was so good!! Portion is quite small but definitely worth the try
Kani Gratin - Ordered this because of the positive reviews on Google. Fell short of my expectations because I was expecting it to be filled with crab meat. They are quite generous with the mentaiko though
Gyuniku Jaga - this! omg! exceeded my expectation. Was debating whether to order the oden soup or this but I'm so glad I chose this! The soup was so sweet so good so flavourful!
Garlic Fried rice - a good bowl of healthy tasting garlic fried rice
All in all, I'm quite satisfied with the food although it has a slightly high price tag. The indoor area could be quite noisy if there is a big group of people. Saw many customers ordered kushiyaki and alcoholic drinks while catching up. A good place to catch up with your friends after work.
This place offers a cozy and inviting ambiance, perfect for unwinding and socializing. The commitment to quality ingredients is evident in their flavorful dishes, with the potato beef stew standing out for its rich taste. Other recommended options include the char siew pork and kani gratin (mentaiko crab), noted for their delicious flavors and attractive presentation. Overall, I have a delightful dining experience, with its focus on culinary excellence and welcoming atmosphere making it a top choice for enjoying quality Japanese cuisine with friends or family.
A chill location for a nice dinner with my partner. Totally recommend the Kani Miso which has a burst of umami flavour with every bite! Ponzu Beef was a great appetizer as well!
For the mains, we had the Spicy Salmon Don and the Beef tongue which both ticked the mark for a wonderful dinner out!
LTried a bit of everything on the menu, and the standout was definitely the flavorful Kani miso baked dish—such an explosion of enticing flavors. The squid with ink batter was another highlight, absolutely delicious! Overall, a thoroughly satisfying and enjoyable dining experience.
For dinner, we had a few dishes - we ordered their signature beef as well as some skewers. The pork and wagyu beef skewers in particular were very juicy - I really like the teriyaki sauce, and preferred it over the salt seasoning (you get to choose which you like!). We also had the aburi saba, which was quite delicious - the wasabi undercut the vinegar so the flavour wasn't too overpowering. I would really love to see a pork don in the menu next time!
Really comfortable and enjoyable experience. Servers were really friendly and helpful, offered to immediately replace a kushiyaki skewer that accidentally fell off the plate. Food came quickly and smoothly, didn't feel like my eating was interrupted.
Highly recommend the Rosti Mentai, it's a really delicious option :)
Great food, great atmosphere. Service crew were friendly and knowledgeable. Tuna was fresh and served on a cold plate. Would recommend the Gyuniku Jaga(beef and potato stew) as its hearty and warms you up on a cold day.
Food tastes amazing and unique, although portions are on the smaller side. Excellent and fast service. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Overall, my experience was wonderful.
I recommend getting Gyuniku jaga (Beef and potato stew)! A good, hearty dish on a cold day.
Gyu Ponzu:
Cold beef slices marinated in ponzu. as an appetiser, this was a tangy and refreshing start to our meal. The citrusy ponzu marinate was the best option to pair with thinly sliced premium beef.
Aburi Shimesaba: We loved this! Torched vinegared mackeral. the fish was super chewy and fresh.The vinegar marinade gave it a tangy zing that made each piece really addictive. This dish stood out the most!
all the food were served very quickly and we're impressed by the customer service!
gyu don:
The thinly sliced beef and onions cooked in that flavorful sauce are just mouthwatering, especially when paired with the fluffy rice.
The owner told me they were serving this at only $5++ during lunch hours, which is super cheap for the quality. I would highly recommend checking out their lunch promotions if you're in the area.
tori kara-age:
The crispy, golden-brown chicken pieces were nicely complemented with a special in-house sauce ('tartar'?). We also squeezed some fresh lemon on top to elevate the flavours.
salmon don and fried shrimp were well seasoned and tasty, though food portions are on the smaller side. lovely service and ambience, very attentive staff!😃
Affordable and authentic Japanese food. Portion size was great for the money that you’re paying, truly a bang for your buck! Really enjoyed the beef with potatoes stew and gyudon that was served piping hot
A great option for tasty and authentic Japanese fare with hard-to-find dishes available on their menu! Particularly enjoyed the negitoro don here – it had a great mix of lean and fatty tuna, was seasoned well and had great texture. Loved the mentaiko salmon sushi and the mentaiko crab gratin as well! Service was very prompt as well, was shown to our tables and served food very quickly.
nice cozy place to dine at, food was pretty good! the garlic fried rice was rly fragrant and the mentaiko crab is a must try!
Had a delightful experience here. The atmosphere was casual with authentic Japanese decor. The standout for me was the mentaiko crab, which was creamy and flavorful.
Service was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall excellent dining experience. Highly recommended for anyone craving genuine Japanese cuisine.
shukuu izakaya
oden was v comforting with the warm clear soup filled with natural sweetness and love the unlimited soup refills!
crab gratin with mentaiko is perf for mentaiko lovers - sauce was rich, creamy with slight char, kinda close to genki’s one
fried chicken skin was super crispy and a perf side dish paired with alcohol, chef’s kiss with mayo
lastly, mini tuna don was fresh and pretty tasty with every bite of soya sauce dipped rice grains + crunchy tobiko tho am normally not a huge fan of tuna
Def a gem in the city for dinner gatherings after work! Food was served promptly and the staff were very nice to share more abt the diff types of sake. Would recommend the pork jowl and mentai dishes. The onsen egg was delicious and mentaiko was torched just right.
