I went for my boyfriend’s birthday! We went there at 2:30 reservations so even though it was weekend it was half empty which was very nice for us! I hate tight sitting area but here so much space between tables I loved that! Feel pretty private. Food was pretty good it wasn’t outstanding taste but I think it’s worth for the price. We ordered “champagne roll” and “Minami zen” which is a bento box with few dishes, portion was ok but we were full after the meal. Since we tried little dishes from this set we will visit again with main entry! Also Nigiri sushi was great quality.
