Very cute, very small spot. Looking forward to my next visit - I only tried the karaage (fried chicken) and some Jasmin tea. Everything that came out looked amazing. Tea was a little weak, but the chicken was delish.

Great flavors and concept. We started with wings and egg rolls which were amazing. I had a beer but my lady ordered the best mojito I ever tasted. We had a beef fried rice and picked at every last grain. The servers were friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. They were doing karaoke and I got pressured into a song, but got through it. We had a good time and would return.

Delicious dinner. We ordered so many small plates to share, it was perfect to get to try lots of different dishes. Hadn't had Chicken Lantern before! We loved everything we ordered...chicken & leek skewer, gyoza, sweet potato, zucchini, chicken skin, king oyster mushrooms, shishuto peppers, draft Asahi and the dessert which was the waffle shaped fish with sweet filling was delicious!Highly recommend! We will be back, this place is a gem.Dietary restrictions: Helpful answers for dietary restrictions.

Prices are moderate and portions are a little on the smaller end. Everything tasted pretty nicely seasoned though. I would definitely come back but not often.

Everything that we ordered was really good. We came on a Saturday night and the place was just super vibrant. Our server Nicole was top notch. 10/10 will definitely come back and recommend. Price is also very fair.

Some of the food was so bland, no seasoning, no salt. Wagyu skewer seemed low quality, it had a lot of gristle. The omurice was pretty good, but not enough to bring me back.
