    i had a beautiful dinner i came here last year for my 1 year anniversary and we decided to come here for our second it was booked on the same day and i felt bad for booking at 8pm on a sunday because i thought it might not be busy but in fact it was. the food was amazing we had the set menu for £35 the portions are a bit small i was still a bit hungry so i ordered this bowl of rice turned out it was spicy i just forgot to look if it was or not but the lovely lady took it off the bill for us which was so nice the service was lush they didn’t come back to take our food or drinks order and we had to call them over a few times, but they did give us mochi ice cream for our anniversary on the house which was so lush and one of the waitresses took photos of us which was really nice

    We really enjoyed our evening. Your staff are fantastic. Chu’s customer service was outstanding. He was excellent and very helpful. He was also extremely attentive. He really made our experience enjoyable. He explained every course so well and was a really lovely server. He made our meal very relaxing and an enjoyable experience. We also then had a drink at the bar and Kuba deserves a special mention for making my partner a special birthday surprise with his drink of dry ice. He was also very knowledgeable on the menu and very helpful and friendly. Thank you for a lovely evening. Your staff are what make the experience worth it even more so than the food and they are invaluable.

    More show than service / value. Some of the staff were a bit abrupt/ driving a script. Did not feel authentic. Bit of a factory / process driven for yield/sweating the opportunity/asset vs customer experience. But I’m picky and Cardiff does not have great choice in this regard. Will come back - good but not great
