I was impressed with the number of good reviews from people who have had extensive experience with Japanese food. The food lived up to their reviews, without a doubt. Very good food, a comfortable dining experience, and friendly staff that anticipates what you need. Craving something soup-like, I had the pork ramen and loved it.

在英國難得一見像樣的日式餐廳,環境舒服,食物就是你去日本時食到的普遍的味道,絕對完勝Wagamama十條街,我點的那碗拉麵是醬油拉麵,湯底飲得出有落功夫不是單調味精死咸,有蔥有紫菜有海帶有鳴門卷,炸雞都好脆,皮呈金黃色應該是即炸的。 老闆娘好 nice 服務周到,要注意的是餐廳可能人手不足,點餐和結帳時最好去櫃檯按鈴通知,否則可能等很久,因為老闆娘在廚房工作時無法得知你的需求。廁所十分清潔 (這個我加好多分) 絕對會再幫襯,祝生意興隆!
