Came here with a colleague for the anime collab. Food was so-so but at least she got what she wanted! Should have more variety for the collab food as I wouldn’t have mind paying more for something that I might to eat more.

A delightful Japanese restaurant satisfying all cravings. The paper hotpot was very satisfying and very well presented. Special mention to the unlimited refills of good quality rice and salad when you buy a set meal. Service was efficient …

Good quality dons and noodles with free flow side dishes…rather crowded on a weekday evening due to the Jimmy Yang show…the gyu don with egg on top is great with the beef being silky smooth with the egg coating…definitely worth the price
