Made my long visa trip not just a little better 🥹 Shrimp tempura was surprisingly good. Fluffy, not greasy, just perfect amount of batter. Plump hot shrimp. (Was tempted by the homemade gyoza on ins but succumbed to fried seafood) seriously one of the best I’ve had in the UK, though I don’t usually order it to avoid disappointment. Chirashi, or poke, comes with vinegar sushi rice. Kimchi sauce can be a bit overpowering for the fresh sashimi, especially the top pieces, but I expected it from the online menu and wanted that after not having kimchi for a while. No need for soy sauce. Lots of salmon and tuna and yellowtail and ripen avocado. It’s a big pasta bowl. No regret spending my week’s carb quota🫄 Cute unassuming little shop American vibes :3 (Vietnamese I guess?) friendly ladies, super nice to delivery people too (maybe I’ll bring some cash next time for discount..)

The nigiri sushi, miso black cod and sashimi salad was fantastic. Had no expectations coming in so was surprised by the quality of the food.
