Had early dinner here withe the wife and wanted to try some Poke so we ordered a large Tuna Poke bowl which was quite good and Takoyaki which was also good but would prefer it arrive pipping hot. Both these dishes were good and will order again for sure.
The Salmon Onigiri and Spam Musubi failed to meet my expectations, was too dry and lacking so for those there is a lot of room for improvement. I even suggested offering a “flight” of Onigiri in a bit smaller portion so that customers can sample all the flavours but needs to be improved first.

Their ingredients are so fresh, and they don’t overdue the sauce too much. Extra points for offering brown rice as well.
I bet they have lots of great options for the meat eaters too, I definitely recommend giving this place a try if you are in the neighbourhood and looking for a...
