    Waitress should be in standup comedy. I loved it , our client (and the rest of us) were giggling and laughing everytime she came to the table. Well done. Also, the food was 10/10 so fresh and light. Will be taking my clients here again.

    Finally got to eat here after seeing into the buzzing restaurant a few times. Very nice staff helped us to work out the routine (select and pay for meat and fish) then taken to our bbq. Many different sauces and small dishes arrive. We really enjoyed the wagyu beef and the eel. The kimchi was fine, not too spicy.
