Small servings and nothing special, not great value for money. Fried dishes did not taste great, maybe old oil. Lots of big tables of regulars so it’s popular but I wouldn’t go back.

Proprietor is very friendly, although the young man waiting tables definitely didn't want to be there and never bothered to check on us after giving us our food. We tried to order ramen but they were all out, which was odd since it was literally an hour into their first service of the week (Tuesday). Because of this we asked for more time to check the menu and the waiter then took it upon himself to put the single order through for gyōza which we'd mentioned before finding out they were out of ramen, so this came out long before we'd even had a chance to order other appetisers or mains. The wait for the rest of the food was staggered but not too long overall.
Wakame salad was perfectly seasoned. The tuna tataki sashimi was not bad but seemed to be from frozen going off the pinkish colour and texture. Soft shell crab was tasty but on the small side for $28. The donburi unagi was very good.
All in all not an amazing experience, so I will probably try other local options for Japanese before I return.

First visit in this Japanese restaurant in the lunch time. We arrived early and few customers were already inside. This is one of the few authentic Japanese cuisine restaurants in town. As you enter, it seems like you are in Japan, great decorations, long bar featuring traditional customs. Food came quickly, we ordered some chicken karage for our chidren, my wife ordered salmon with salad and me lamen. All tasted fantastically nice, soft rice and well seasoned. Owners are Japanese, that explains much of the quality and precision. Looking for another good experience in the future.

Staffs are nice and easy to access.
Only minor problem is that parking is hassle since it's in city center.
However the food is amazing. I quite enjoy all their food. Gyoja(kind of dumplings) was delicious and bento is worth it to pay. I didn't really like their miso because of personal taste but not bad.
I would love to come this place again definitely.
