   We absolutely love this restaurant. Whenever we know we are visiting the Gold Coast, we immediately book a table. The food is outstanding and the staff are amazing.

   The staff are very friendly and the cocktails are nice. We ordered the Omakase ($110). The stand out dish was the tuna maki and that was it. The food did not come out in the right order and the red meat dishes( yakatori and waguy) were burnt and bitter and under seasoned. You can pay the same price elsewhere for much better quality food.

   Great experience sat at the bar watching the staff weave their magic. Food was fresh and delicious complimented by crisp dry Sake. Service was of a very high standard and the ambiance was buzzing though the music a bit loud making communication just a tad difficult, the twenty and thirty somethings appreciate the thumping more than us of an older vintage. Nevertheless would definitely return and recommend to others

    Brilliant. Was told about this hideaway and thought we'd check it out, so glad we did! Probably the best restaurant we've found in the area, and staying up the road at Broadbeach several times in the last few years we've found a few. Will definitely be back and recommend to all we know.
