Chose this izakaya as a lot of other restaurants in the area close early. We're from out of town and this place did not disappoint. We ordered several appetizers, got the American wagyu skewers, and everything was amazing. I ordered the NY strip beef steak teppenyaki, they ran out but the manager as...

★★★★★ "Great atmosphere with really great food!

★★★★ "Came here to try their skewers only to find that they have happy hour everyday at a certain time even on a Sunday. Unexpected and surprisingly affordable.

★★★★★ "I find the quality of their ingredients to be really high, I enjoy eating here and taking advantage of their happy hour, the food is really good.
