The restaurant was booked for a large group of people. The food took ages to come, I mean really, my table had to wait 1 hour before the food came. However, I ordered the tuna sushi and it tasted really awesome. The service is a huge let down though and for the relatively expensive price paid, it's not worth it.

It was a Saturday night where my friend had booked out half the restaurant for 50 people at a really nice Japanese restaurant. Unfortunately the waitresses DO NOT KNOW HOW TO SPEAK ENGLISH, they couldn't understand the simplest requests of drink orders or replenishing food that was not brought out. We had a 7 course menu with a drink for $50, the portions were small and the entree of sweet potato soup was dreadful; cold and gelatine-like. The food for the price paid was not worth it.
A waitress and the manager on 2 separate occassions had spilt alocohol all over the same table, they had comped a round of drinks for them. Another table had ordered hot sake but received hot water instead. The venue was booked for 50 and in the end 54 people came, the kitchen didn't prepare for extra food for just in case. The dinner took 3.5 hours where the kitchen knew what they had to prepare beforehand.
Terrible and disappointing is the only thing i can say about the whole dining experience. For the price we all paid, we couldv've ate elsewhere with better food and service.

Approximate cost: $25

Tried the Wagyu beef on a hotplate and gyoza here and they were quite good. The beef was nice, tender and tasty and gyoza's were reasonably big in size compaired to the offerings in other restaurants. I would visit this place more often if not for their pricey menu items. The place didn't really have that much customer's for a weeknight in my opinion due to this higher cost compared to more reasonably priced japanese restaurants nearby.
