Reviews
The sushi was incredibly fresh, and the tempura tasted wonderful. To finish off our meal, the matcha mille crepe cake was exceptional,it wasn’t cloyingly sweet at all, with perfectly balanced flavour.
Miso soup was like I tired in Japan, so good. All food was great, strongly recommended. The only thing that we were not happy at all was the waiter's 3 cm long nail, could not have been placed in our food plate. That destroyed our pleasure!
Celebrated a birthday here and it was wonderful. We both had the tasting Omakase menu sat at the counter. The setting was cosy and we watched the chef prepare every single dish for us. The staff were highly attentive and explained what we were eating during each course. We had a wonderful time and certainly return to celebrate another special occasion.
