I ordered the todays special as in lunch menu , the beef has too much grease in it, also the portion is extreme little, filled with some carrot and potato. The colour of the egg omelette also doesnt look very well, but it doesnt taste bad. The fried pork cutlet is the only positive, can tell it is made in restaurant but not frozen product. Also the price is also on a higher end regarding the less portion. It used to be a lot more. There is no way the lunch set itself cost 17.9 + service charge with that amount of beef.

One of the best Japanese restaurants in London - and certainly our favourite, go-to spot. Everything is delicious, the service is outstanding (staff are so sweet and kind), ambience is lovely (if you like quiet and cosy, intimate place for conversation) - a super authentic spot perfect for date night. Some highlights: Love the tonkatsu here, truffle steak is great, matcha chocolate cake is divine. Think they’ve removed it from the menu but the black ninja curry was phenomenal too. Such a hidden gem, mega underrated, if you want authentic Japanese food this place is a must ❤️ the only downside is that on weekends they only open Saturday night - wish they’d open for lunch / Sunday too!!

Service aux petits soins, repas qualitatif avec la viande qui fond en bouche, tout comme la super glace au yuzu que j'ai pris. Que demander de plus ? Seul point négatif : des frais de tables sur la facture dont on ne s'attendait pas. Je recommande vivement si vous aimez manger japonais.
