To clarify: This was my first time eating here and this is the first impression I got from the restaurant.
The ambience is excellent if you're seeking a slightly more authentic Japanese feel.
The food here is delicious for a reasonable price as well.
My brother and I ordered the Tri-color Sashimi 3 kinds, and I was avidly surprised by how thick each sashimi slice was, and how soft and sweet they were.
You get three slices of salmon, two slices of white tuna, and two slices of regular red tuna.
Along with the sashimi, we had octopus, flying fish roe, and roasted eel sushi. They were generous with the fish roe and the octopus wasn't as tough here compared to a few sushi restaurants at both Vivacity and Saradise - it was pretty tender. The roasted eel was especially tasty with a glaze of (I believe) Teriyaki sauce.
My brother had the Cold Udon and was pleased - I would prefer if they had cold green tea soba as well, but I tried some of his food and it was delicious. The dipping sauce wasn't as salty as I thought it'd be (it was actually drinkable) and the fried tempura batter was crispy and lightly seasoned. If they add a small side of radish, the plate would have been a lot more refreshing. However, overall, the dish was excellent and filling.
I ordered the Udon Noodle Soup and the scent that wafted from the bowl was drool-able. The two slices of spiral fish cake and the load of seaweed topped on the udon was a nice burst of salty flavor. The soup itself was definitely saltier than the Cold Udon dipping sauce but it was still tasty. The udon itself was chewy and springy - not mushy and all soft and saggy at all - and again, the dish was definitely filling.
10/10 recommend. There wasn't a lot of customers around the afternoon for lunch and it was pretty quiet. The staff was nice and helpful, too. Definitely would return for another meal, 100%. Maybe I'll bring my friends next time and try the sushi and...
Read moreThis is the one of worst place i went. The service here is horrible and even charges that much service charges like what kind of service did i received. First problem, the utensils not enough for five people and wanted to ask for utensils but no one was around there so decided grab one from the other table. Second one, when dad asked a few question after the staff listened the first one they just ran off before the second one even ask. Like what kind service is that. So stupid one. The food set arrived a bit too slow. After payment, saw the service charges 10% even though the service like doesn't exist in that kind of restaurant. The food went okay some are good some are bad. Service is 100% bad. Not recommended for service...
Read moreThis restaurant is spacious with a nice deco. However, some parts of the floor can be slippery. Their menu is extensive and they also have vegetarian options. We ordered tempura prawn, wakame udon, unagi rolls and aburi salmon sushi. The tempura prawn was crispy and light. The wakame udon was a surprise, as i didn't expect it to taste so good. The broth was spot on, not sweet (as I don't like sweet broth) and not too salty. And i liked how the tempura and udon was served piping hot. Sushi and rolls could have been better, the fish slices were quite thin, so I couldn't really taste the fish. The green tea was too light I thought I was drinking plain water. Overall the food here tasted good and the...
