   I enjoyed the food but found the noise level difficult to deal with. I had a hard time hearing my dinner companion due to the very loud table next to us.

   Not recommended. The food was not very good. I had a beef/shitake stirfry on rice. The beef was chewy. My friend had a poke bowl in which the tuna was not good.

   This is quaint restaurant with good food however the servers kept chatting with each other loudly and the swinging saloon style doors were loudly banging the entire time. Agree with the customer who said they have a fruit fly problem that is true.

   This restaurant is an absolute gem. My husband and I sat in the window seat (very cozy). The service was excellent and the food delicious.

   Not so good experience. We coming from TO. The table they gave us there’s lots of food flies, I’m talking about at least 10-20 keep flying around. Everyone immediately doesn’t want to eat there. Also there’s no ac as well. It’s very warm and stuffy inside. At the end we leave. It’s a Sat night and we need to google around and search what to eat with a group of 7 people. Luckily we found Ryu Japanese and it’s very good.

   Delicious food as always. The menu change is a bit confusing, but otherwise terrific service and great quality fish.

   While the food was decent, not sure I would eat here again any time soon. The quality and price match up decently well but there were a lot of flies and I constantly found myself having to swat em away while trying to enjoy my food. Worth mentioning I appreciated the variety of menu options and presentation of food. Overall not bad and will likely try it once more before adding to my "Do not eat" list.

    We wanted a light supper before our concert, so ordered some maki to start and then a rice and a noodle dish to share, although everything arrived together. The maki - ebi chizu maki, a fried maki with shrimp tempura tartare - sounded wonderful but was actually quite greasy and bland. The tofu and shiitake rice bowl - tofu shiitake don - was delicious, subtly flavoured and not too heavy. The noodle dish - ebi tempura soba, or shrimp and vegetable tempura with noodles - was okay, but again rather bland, especially the noodles which had no sauce or flavouring at all. A nice, well located spot but I’m not sure we’ll rush to return.
