"Amazing food - slightly saltier, but it made the drinks go down faster, and then we went on a non-stop cycle of needing more alcohol, more snacks, more alcohol... There were many Japanese patrons, so we likened this place to be pretty authentic! Food prices were slightly more pricey than the other average Japanese fare in KL, but quite worth it for the price. Only complaint was the urine smell in the shared corridor when you walk in from the street (perhaps can't be controlled since its shared with other tenants)"

"Went to this Japanese izakaya restaurant, it’s my first time for this branch and it was really friendly. I’ve called in advanced to reserve my table and they greeted me with welcome message just like I was in a fancy hotel. It’s a great place to go if you want to have drinks with your friends. The best thing about this place is the variety of food they offer and everything tasted amazing! My favourite dishes were the steam chicken and the friend chicken wings. They are so delicious!"

"I had a wonderful experience. I ordered the Gyu Tataki, and it was absolutely delicious so good that I ordered it twice. The chef’s selection was also amazing, with every dish carefully prepared and full of flavor. All of the staff were kind, friendly, and attentive, which made the experience even better. I will definitely come back again, and next time I’ll make sure to try more items on the menu!"

"I discovered this hidden gem for a late-night dinner when many shops were closed. It has a wonderful ambience with an authentic Japanese izakaya feel. The food was fresh and delicious during my visit. Notably, their salmon belly was exceptionally fresh, perfectly medium rare, and had excellent taste and texture. They offer a wide selection of Japanese liquors with various happy hour packages, making it great value for money due to its reasonable pricing. Great hospitality as well. Will definitely drop by again soon."
