Hello: We had a very good experience. My Diva cocktail was delish. We had a window seat which was nice to look out over Gastown. Sashimi salad was excellent great dressing. Food came surprisingly quickly and was piping hot. We ordered the chicken Kara-age the chicken inside was super tender and outside crisp and hot. The octopus Takoyaki was great dipping sauce a delicous accompaniment. The Beef Udon (Guuu'd Yaki Udon) was good that dish could perhaps have had a stronger sauce it was quite mild tho the bonito flake gave it a great flavor. We would definately come here again!
