Booked a table for my dad's birthday and we enjoyed our meal so much. The service was so friendly and the food incredibly fresh and tasty for a reasonable price for that quality (and quantity - the sushi was huge!) It's clearly a long-standing establishment for a good reason.

Super authentic Japanese izakaya. You will see plenty of salaryman inside speaking Japanese and doing their nomikai. Food is great. Felt like I was back in Japan.
