Just got back from a dream trip to Japan and needed my fix… I’ve always wanted to go here and finally went last night. It’s my favorite bar in San Diego. Incredible drinks, great food, Japan vibes are on point. I will definitely be coming back very soon.

Excellent drinks, ambience and service. We were expecting a larger dinner menu. It’s more appetizers or tapas menu but food was good. Our bartender was exceptional. Highly recommend.
