We got all the special sushi and everything was sooooo goood at a reasonable price. The tempura set was crisp and juicy on the inside. 5/5 You have to order one drink for each person. I thought everything is with alcohol but they have juices also for kids and they give you a braised Tuna appetizer at 220 yen. And at that price it is worth more than 220 yen. 5/5 UNI sashimi. Great flavor. They serve you different types in my opinion from the buttery orange uni to the a little fishy brownish one. For texture and range that is a 5 Special plate sushi, salmon and tuna plates. If you ate very particular with the ranges of tuna i suggest you order the tuna and salmon plates and then go for the special plate.
The tuna with different qualities and method of preparation is soooooo godlike, especially the fatty tuna and the yellowfin. Suggest to use clean hands! Great at 5/5
The salmon and special plate sushi has ranges in texture and texture qualities as well. All in all, whenever and if i come back here in OSAKA this store is a must visit and at 10270 yen for everything including drinks, what we had is more than the price in my opinion.
Btw, their super dry Asahi draft beer is also great to go along with all the fresh seafood and sushi they are serving. A MUST and a GO-TO place for Sushi lovers then open at 1200 til 2200 daily. So do go early. Seats are...

This sushi restaurant was amazing. Such a nice experience with a lovely and welcoming staff. We enjoyed the lunch and the quality of the sashimi, was just amazing, specially their fatty tuna which melt on the tongue.
Thank you again for this experience!
N.B: drink is mandatory and they will give you a small appetizer which was a discovery for us but very good in taste and texture. (it is not free as per Japan custom. In this restaurant I think it is mandatory with the drink).
Highly recommend this place ! We will miss it for sure.
UPDATE - May 2025. We came back to Osaka and only thought about this restaurant. We did twice before leaving. It still remain the best sushi we had in Japan - hands down. Still highly recommend if you come to Osaka, you won’t be disappointed by the fish obviously but their tempura is also amazing. I’m still thinking about the octopus...
