This is a nice Japanese restaurant that covers a wide range of great Japanese food. This is why this restaurant has survived for so many years. If the food is great, the setting doesn't matter so much.

I get to go here enough as we usually go to other locations to eat, but it is worth the effort to head here.

The place has nice traditional japanese feel, but fitout overall seems quite old. Cutlery were particularly old and plain - and they use take-away type chopsticks which I think is unacceptable for any restaurants. Prices of dishes are generally a tad higher than what i usually pay for similar japanese cuisine. Overall food quality is not bad - we had eel with rice, sashimi entree and agedashi tofu; the food was served very promptly.

Food is good. value not so much. dinning environment not so good. and I think the waiters need to move faster...

An old Japanese dining in Highgate hills with a somewhat, unattractive fit-out.
Food however, has always been good over the years (eg. the sashimi/sushi moriawase, grilled chicken skewers, tako karaage etc.). The sushi especially, is one of the best in town.
Service is a little disappointing especially during busy hours (eg. wrong dish sent or long wait between dishes)

I think this place would benefit greatly with a renovation.
