From far the place looks amazing and nice. But from a closer look when you’re actually inside, the interior/decor looks quite cheap. Two levels but the tables are squeezed quite close to one another. Makes sitting arrangement tight and uncomfortable. For a place with such pricing for food I would expect to be able to sit comfortably without having to “participate” in the conversation next to me. Quality and taste of the food is not amazing. Quantity is quite pathetic as well. We order the chicken schnitzel that comes with a tiny portion of salad, and sausage platter of 3 that comes with some mustard sauce and small portion of sauerkraut.

You can also order appetizers, salads, risotto and pizza, but the craft German sausages are best. The price is very reasonable at around 1,500 yens per person. The staff is very professional and courteous. The shop has many sister shops in recently developed modern building but the atmosphere of this shop is...
Read moreCame here on a night out with friends I haven't seen in years.
The food and drink, were fine (a bit expensive but it was decent).
The issue lay with the service. A cockroach flew onto my arm and around us - and I understand these things can happen - the staff dealt with it but didn't apologise or anything.
We ordered some beers but none of us were particularly knowledgeable about them; the staff grumbled something at us about what we ordered and refused to elaborate...
I asked where the bathroom was and the staff member very curtly and impolitely told me where to go.
Furthermore, they blast bad foreign pop music so having a conversation...
