    Yummy and attractive are the two words I would use to describe this place. This place has a bit of a retro feel and it opens late if you're a late eater. They have all the Japanese classics here like omurice and curry so I was enticed! We came with a party of 6 and got a few items to share! My favorite honestly is the mentaiko pasta and the omurice. The mentaiko pasta is so creamy and flavorful and the omurice is soooo fluffy. I was really happy about that. The katsu on the curry was so crispy and made to perfection along with the crispy calamari on the side! The truffle fries were just as good as McDonalds just with some truffle flavor but I would say they aren't bad at all! Everything we got was really good and they accommodated our large party of 6 last minute so it's a win win for me! Just be careful if you're eating the croquettes it's really ho

    Great food and service. We stopped by during 4th of July weekend and wetquickly seated. We got a few apps along with katsu sando. Everything was delicious, king oyster mushrooms were really delicate, agedashi tofu was good, the crab cream croquettes (so good and creamy especially when dipped in the sauce provided). Food came out quickly and was a great experience overall.

    Food was so good! I ordered the Mentaiko pasta. It was good but kind of heavy and creamy. Almost chunky. The bacon potato salad that came in the side dish was okay, it was just pieces of cooked (soft) bacon slices in Japanese style potato salad. We went Saturday night and it was a little empty but still some people there. I think the curry may be one of the best ones I've had in a while. King oyster mushroom is also sooo good (buttery, creamy and melts in your mouth) but $15 is out of my price range for some mushrooms.
